Thursday – A Little Personal – Twiggy and Lucy and Sunscreen

~ John W. Howell

“Hey, Lucy. Don’t forget the sunscreen.”

“Coming Little One.”

“I don’t see a lot of sun out here, Twiggy.”

“You have to look for it.”

“Look for it? If it isn’t in the sky, where  would it be?”

“Not behind the chaise, I can tell you.”

“I’m not sure, but I think you might be disappointed.”

“I wonder if it is out front?”

“It comes from above, Twiggy.”

“Maybe there is a below element.”

“Now you are ridiculous. Everyone knows the sun is in the sky.”

“You can’t close your mind to possibilities, Lucy.”

“Hey, where you going in such a hurry?”

“Look out of the way. I have sun to find.”

“Okay then. You go, girl.”

“They laughed at Columbus you know.”

“Believe me, no one is laughing.”

  4. Such sweet innocence. In our area, we’ve more rain ahead of us and we’re all hoping for glimpses of the sun. Hope the girls, and you, find some. 🌞

  10. Oh, but I am laughing! Your determination makes me giggle 🤭. Hope the sun peeks out & when you find it, if you wouldn’t mind sending a little my way please 😉

  13. If you’d had a dose of last night’s severe weather, the girls would have been posting quite differently this morning. I saw a photo of larger-than-baseball sized hail that came through a house roof in Sabinal. Better to stick with sunshine coming through windows, or bathing the patio in its glow. Tell Twiggy to keep looking!

  25. Excellent dialogue (you – and the girls – are so good at that!). I hope they soon find the sun, and I wondered how you all did with those big storms that went through. To be honest, I’m willing to look below now for that orange orb, as it’s nowhere in sight here above. 🙂

  27. “It comes from above, Twiggy.” A profound line, John, and one that can be applied to many things – a thought that just came to mind. 🙂 We have the sun but need the rain. Never satisfied.
    Have a good day!

  31. Twiggy Resort in action. The Resort Times informs that today an urgent meeting about a new doggy source of the sun energy has been held. Lucy & Twiggy discussed establishing & development of their new eco-project “Sun dog without sunscreen”. 🙂 🙂 🙂

      1. I’ve been noticing the squirrels digging in the yard … I thought they were trying to find the peanuts they buried there in the fall, but perhaps they are looking for some of that leftover sun!
