 One Of My Very Own

FRAMED STANDING DOLLARS


Remember the dowels that I wrapped with dollars and then coated them with layers of glass clear coat? 

Originally I had planned to use them as a wall in a small box but I abandoned that idea when I found my grandmother's frame. I attached three dowels together with small eye hooks and then hung them in the frame using a completely random array.

I knew it was predestined when the three dowels fit perfectly in the frame.

My grandmother's frame is very dear to me.

During The Great Depression, my grandmother made women’s suits out of frayed men’s suits and dresses out of old drapes and such. At some point, she tacked a scrap piece of cloth onto a frame and it hung in her living room until she died. My mother inherited it from her and I inherited it from my mother. It had been stored in a damp shed for decades and the images depicted were undiscernable. So I used the frame to hang my Standing Dollars but left the tattered cloth in place as a reminder.

It now hangs next to my bed so I can look at it every one of my remaining days.



And lastly, I added two of them to my Sample Box.

PUZZLE TIME: Move the left vertical stick from the 9 and fill the vertical gap in the 6 to make Zero. Job done. XD

Anonymous said...

Danny, that would be 3-3= 8.
How about moving the lower vertical stick in the six over to the nine to make it an eight? 8-3=5.

Puzzle - Take the vertical stick in the 9 and put it on the minus sign to make it a plus sign so you get 3+3=6

Take it easy, I'm Chicano from Tucson az. I don't wear pointy hats, neither does anyone else I know. I've never in my life witnessed so much finger pointing. Nazi! Nazi!! Check out Joe bidens "confidant" Robert C Byrd. Strait up KKK Nazi, Joe also gave a eulogy at Roberts funeral. None of that affiliation with Trump you know the news would run that 24 7.

Dear Armano,
I live in the South and am Southern through and through. And I stand by my statement that I have never met a MAGA that was racist. But please consider that there are A LOT of racists down here.
You seem like a very intelligent man so let me ask you this: What exactly do you think happened on Jan. 6th?

Trained military take over governments not a group of dumb people. When you get enough people together even if it was all in good intentions of being peaceful, it can easily take a turn for the worst. Humans are jumpy and have poor assessment when in a mob state. And if you are going to also ask if I thought "the election was stolen"? No, but rather swayed by all forms of media just enough for Trump to lose.-Armando

Dear Armando,
"When you get enough people together even if it was all in good intentions of being peaceful, it can easily take a turn for the worst."
Those people brought clubs, bear spray, zip ties, and body armor with them.

Dear Armando,
I forgot to mention that they also brought a gallows with a noose attached while chanting Hang Mike Pense.
And it was no coincidence that all of this occurred during the vote count.
