Maxim of the Week


In the 6th month of her pregnancy, Darlene is alarmed to find that her formerly "innie" belly button has popped up into an "outie."
Maxim:
Don't make a mountain out of a molehill.

  1. Piqued, taking a peek at the peak.

    WV - gyrolood: Who spun the outhouse?

  3. Lucky she can still see it.

    Speaking of belly buttons,
    I once read that Angels do
    not have them.

  4. DCW,
    I think she was feeling a litte peaky but maybe that had something to do with the spinning outhouse.

  5. Thanks, Susan!
    I've just run over to my other blog, where the link to yours is parked in the sidebar there, to check out your latest blog post. I left a comment on yours, but will repeat here how very pleased I am with how the picture turned out as a print. I hope you're happy with it and that it will bring you years of pleasure in looking at it. (I think the quilt on the bed below goes perfectly with it, too).
    :-D

  11. johanna,
    Isn't it terrible how big and dark and impossible worries appear in the middle of the night when all our defenses are down? An excellent example you make, of turning molehills into mountains.

  12. Leovi,
    But when you make those gorgeously coloured mountains out of molehills in your magic abstract photos it is art!

  13. And here I thought she was just contemplating her navel...

    And guessing from the size of her, looks like a certain baby currently an innie is about to become an outie, after obtaining the right of way through the rites of passage.

  14. Owen,
    "Contemplating her navel" haha--good one!
    Always fun to glimpse the inner workings of your mind in its twists and turns through the dark tunnels therein. I particularly like the sign at its entrance, "Welcome to the Fun House"; though the exit sign is a little more daunting, "Welcome to the Hotel California."
