Tym Lyn

A new blogger challenge going around is the Time Travelers' Blogger Challenge! This was suggested by Alicia Chenaux & Sophia Harlow. Now my posting for this does not entail my being a blogger in any form or fashion..... I still believe myself to be a non-Blogger. I am a Blog Commenter and know my role well. However, Tymmerie did one for this and it looked like fun :-P

Now the time I picked...may or may not be a real time. Opinions differ. I have chosen an early period in European history were fairy folk were said to roam the woods of Carterhaugh. Legend even had it that the Queen of Faeries could capture an unsuspecting male and enchant him. After seven years the unlucky person being offered up as a tithe to hell on Halloween night. Now I am not quite sure what that means...but it can't be good. You know, come to think of it, our old neighbors in Wonderful Land use to offer those hell tithey things all the time.... Yep, do not want any part of that!

I also know that if I were able to travel to this time, and do my normal exploring, I would surely be captured. While I know it might be fun running around the woods with my faeries friends skipping and jumping, being happy and gay.... (in a strictly manly way I assure you!)... it would be bound to get old after a while. And then there would be that whole 7 year, time to be sacrificed, thing to worry about. Talk about stress!

But I also know that fate would be on my side and let the lovely Tymmerie enter my life again. She would find me and save me for our love knows no bounds!

Tym Has Saved Me

As it would look at midnight on Halloween


The song for all this of course is Tam Lin as done by Fairport Convention. I have always liked their rendition and thought it would be great to make a music video to it. Hmm, I guess if you don't think that faeries really existed, so I could not have traveled to such a time and place... then just say Tym and I dropped some magic mushrooms and had some fun in the woods during the 1960's instead ;-)

Gotta Love Thursdays


Two weeks ago Tymmerie posted a blog about what makes her happy in her SLife. This was inspired by Alicia Chenaux's post, based on a suggestion made by Strawberry Singh, for us to remember all of the things we love or are good and positive in our lives and post about them in our blogs. Alicia calls this Love Thursdays.

Ok, it took me one year to do my first blog...so two weeks really isn't bad.... So here is my post.

Like Tymmerie has done, I will start with my biggest 'happy' of all: my true love... Nik Kershaw (see my comment)

Opps, I meant to say my absolutely wonderful wife Tymmerie Thorne-Darwin.

She makes me happier than I ever thought possible. We are there for each other and share in everything. There is nothing I like better than spending time with Tym exploring, partying, building or sitting on the sofa talking. And of course continuing our never ending Honeymoon :-)

My picture is from a recent day exploring. We found a nice spot to sit and enjoy the sunset. Thank you for coming into my life...and thank you for being my wife. I love you!
