You call me names and laugh at me.
But when you`re in need I`m who you come and see.

Its not my fault I`m here for one thing.
But sometimes when you`re here I can here you sing.

You bring your magazines and sit for awhile.
When you leave you`re wearing a feel better smile.

You`ll always need me there ain`t no doubt.
You just have to see me to let everything out.

I`ll always be here as quiet as a mouse.
I`m your bathroom but was once called an outhouse.

(sigh) Oh my gosh, I know this feeling ever so much myself; sometimes I just don't feel like being in the company of others, and people can hurt me, but nevertheless through time they seem to find more respect and I feel comfortable being not alone. (sigh) You are what you are, sweet friend, a very loving person with a big golden heart of love! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is fabulous! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Juanita, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Hey Girl:

Love it - uniquely different. You certainly have a way of making everyone smile.

Only you would write an ode to an outhouse.

Loved your cartoons. You do them really well.

Juanita,
Hugging me would be easy to do. While pot-sitting I always put my arms straight out sideways in case I fall in. This would prevent me going in above my shoulders. One can never be too careful. It's hard to do the paperwork though.
