I was at a local gardenon Friday, where there re lots of benches dedicated to someone, with an inscription. One of my favorite plaques says something like "mother, grandmother, drama queen..." , and something else funny about the person being remembered. I have often thought what do I want on my plaque whether on a bench or by a tree, to amuse and remind those who know me of more than just my dates of birth and death.
Having given it some thought, it would be along the lines of:
"good enough mother, dog lover, rabid lefty till the end, intolerant of bigots, but mainly kind"
What's on yours?
We have got to laugh on here and that made me choke on my cornflakes.
Those gave me a good laugh, along with Chellisimo's picture. Humour is such a help in dark times ( well there are exceptions but I wont bring politics into it)
