I’ve been trying hard to find a fit and suiting place
to hide my head into the sand somewhat in disgrace.
News I tend to see in print and even on the screen
seems too often to display us all as just plain mean.
Search I did and then some more, but little did I find
to give me much hope for a loving humankind.
So I did what people have done always and again.
I found out my own response, wrote it down and then
put it onto a new blog with hope to inspire
a few laughs and grief relief enough to light a fire
of hope and cheerfulness or maybe just some fun
because if we don’t laugh a bit, we’d be happy-un.
Here’s a link to a new blog I hope will bring you cheer
or if not, at least a moment you won’t have to fear.
Please meet Violet and Doris , smile upon your face.
You’ll find they do exist online in a happy place.
Pleased to make the acquaintance of Violet and Doris!

Susan, I love Violet and Doris! And their names really resonate with me because my grandmothers were Madge Viola and Naomi Thorne. 🙂 Thanks for the beautiful introduction. ~Terri

Terri – What terrific names! Don’t you think our grandmothers may have been similar ages – there’s someting about that time and the names they chose. Thanks – from Violet, Doris, and me – for stopping by – Susan

Definitely, Susan. Madge Viola was born in 1903; not sure about Naomi Thorne, but it had to be around then. And they were true to the nature of their names: MV was sweet, and NT was a little … prickly. 🙂 ~Terri

Terri – they sound like they would have enjoyed Violet and Doris! I figure their birth years around 1906 – amazing to think about all that, isn’t it?? I remember Doris telling me about hearing an enormous unfamiliar noise, turning around and seeing an airplane flying for the first time. !! Cheers – Susan
