You won’t understand the title unless you know some Seals and Crofts. I always liked that particular phrase and use it occasionally if the situation calls for it. In this case, it does. And just who is this oddity? None other than me.
I’ve been continuing to sort through some of my Mom’s stuff and came across a hilarious note that I wrote to my dad with instructions about waking me up and further instructions having to do with my two younger sisters. So far, so good.
But oh my goodness – what an oddball I was! I’m not sure how old I was when I wrote this, but I’m guessing maybe 8th or 9th grade. I was definitely infected by the spirit of the age. See for yourself:
Dad baby,
Please wake me up at 6:30 before you split. Also, that cat named Sarah. But not the little freak (Charlotte).
Thanks, baby!
Love,
Lynn
No wonder my Mom saved it. I imagine she and Dad had quite a laugh over that one.

Hilarious!
I wouldn’t say odd ball; you fit right in with
“The spirit of the age” as you said.
Was the painting from that same note or time
or was it something you made recently?
It’s beautiful, by the way!

It was a stock photo that I found using the search term “psychedelic “. Seemed to fit the theme! 😜

that’s hilarious and sounds like you! 😂. I’ve kept some real “gems” from my kids over the years. We all get a good laugh from them. Love the psychedelic print!
