My hubby and best friends
always call me Del,
I've always been real beachy,
I'm just that kind of gal.
Since I'm always feeling beachy,
and like to get my shelling on,
I want to play with beachy things,
until the daylight's gone.
I love to be creative
this 'work' to me is fun,
I like to shell the day away,
beneath the Florida sun.
I like to beautify my surroundings
with pretty shelly things,
of the oceans special treasures,
the jewels of the ocean king.
I hold these treasures near and dear
they are special to my heart,
they are more than just shells to me,
they are truly a work of art.
Once home to a creature
who left behind this shell,
entrusted to me by the sea,
I'm a beachy gal named Del.

I also have multiple autoimmune diseases. Way too many to list, but including Lupus SLE, Autoimmune Pancreatitis, CREST, Sjogrens Syndrome, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Coombs Positive Hemolytic Anemia. Yeah, there's more than that! I now have a total of 19 of them, as CREST is 5 diseases in one, and I have them all.
I try not to let it get me down, or to even mention it.
Should I disappear for a few days, this is why.... I'm feeling sick!
Feel free to ask me anything!
