The Dragonflies'Lair ~Thread L~

My Dragon Fly and Me



If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

Altho I’ve already changed my clocks, it is only 1:10am. d:o) It was in the high 40s yesterday and is 37 now. I’m afraid that it is wishful thinking that winter is over. Are you and the manse nice and warm?

Ice melt is curb to curb down at the corner.

Time here is 6:12 AM, I have been watching a movie since 4 AM.

We are under a storm watch until this evening, yesterday was terrible, it poured down rain, turned to snow, we are headed for a black ice storm, to boot.

Good news on the ice melt, we have had a lot of ice this year.

Manse is nice and warm thanks. Had some work done in the bathroom, a new window, smaller and one I can open in the Summer. It will keep the bathroom warmer too, the old window leaked like a sieve.

Very cool about the window. I would prefer a window in the bathroom, even glass block like the bathroom downstairs would do. I do love my skylight tho.

I think about changing them, but they are favorites for me too.

Yup, the new window is a big help. The other one was so huge, original to the manse, and the direction my washer and drier were positioned I could not do a thing with it. Now with this smaller window, I had the guys turn the washer around so it faces the closet and I have so much more room, much better now.
Oh, they vented my dried to the outside too. There was a water basin to catch the lint, so this is an improvement as well.

Windows are needed in bathrooms, IMHO. :0)

I have found changing a small amount of money at the local airport gives you a better exchange rate

Right, but what I'm doing is trying to convert bills in foreign amounts to dollars, so I can claim the proper amount and get reimbursed. I do have around 750 hryvna that Dubai refused to change at the airport, so I simply HAVE to go back to Ukraine at some point. ;)

I hate when I always have a lot of the country that I visited money left over at the end of a trip. Fortunately, I went back for additional visits.

But I seem to remember that you had hurt your lower back during your visit to the Ukraine ;^)

Hey, that is but a small price to pay. I am willing to suffer a little pain...
