This is my new companion Violet. I named her Violet because my friend Liz suggested it, I like the name Violet (which makes me wish I'd thought of it first) and she is indeed violet.
Violet's been with me about a week now, courtesy of my pal Jeri who entrusted me with Violet while I was visiting her last week in Boston. This is Violet after a fairly arduous journey on the B train along Commonwealth Avenue. She and I were resting on the Common prior to making our way to the Hyatt where George, Liz and boys were staying, and who had generously offered to make room for Violet on the ride home. (And I mean all the way home - Liz fed me dinner then drove me and Violet right to the door. Very kind indeed. Violet abstained from dinner because she needs to keep herself a svelte size 8).
Miss Violet is now beautifully adorned with vintage brooches et al and standing sentinal near my bedroom window. I enjoy her company immensely, and I dare say she reciprocates.
