I want to believe that this is real.
You can’t really know without some serious research because there are so many different kinds.

Considering there’s no gills or fins, you’re probably correct.

I dunno… I tried to track it down online, and only found various postings, with no info.

But I saw enough similar though not identical creatures, some even in videos, that I think this guy is probably real.

I don’t know what seahorse gills look like…

But isn’t that a big yellow fin in the middle of his back?

I found a diagram. I thought there were fins along the side, but i was wrong. However, the fins just behind the “jaw” should be there, I think.

Sunflowers in a ruined landscape.

Pretty sure this represents Van Gogh and his mental state…

Envisioning sunflowers in the imagined ruins of Arles, from the same vantage point as his “Cafe Terrace at Night.”

Maybe behind the other parent.

And easier to keep them save that way.

That was the point of the story… I guess you know that.

But I think they’re cute.

He was probably cute in the story, too… Just following the wrong mama who didn’t appreciate him.

The time to do that is when you’re young. And single. And don’t have kids to look after.

Lloyd Bridges! And, after a day of scuba diving has filled your ears with seawater, using a little mental floss to help restore your equilibrium!
Wow. What a blast from the past.

That’s a classic.
And bonus points for the nod to Carolyn Jones as Morticia Addams.

Gosh, you guys…

Thank you again!

I wasn’t expecting any of this, so i didn’t try to get back here earlier. Sorry!

I fell asleep while posting here (again) last night…
My hours seem to be changing… for the better, I have to say.
But after so many years of extreme insomnia, I haven’t figured out yet when I need to get in bed.

So surprised when I got back today!
I still feel guilty cos Stel can’t be here…
But I really appreciate all of you!
๐Ÿ’

BTW… Trying to submit my thank yous to everybody, WordPress kept telling me “You’re trying to make comments too fast! Slow down!”
LOL…

Then I’d find that some didn’t post, and I’d have to wait and submit them again.
Hope they’re all caught up now!!

Susan, for what itโ€™s worth, from me, an old sod.
Life is for living.
Never feel guilty.
Stel is still here, in all of our hearts.
And we appreciate you, and all that you do.
May your Birthday be the fulfilment of your dreams.
Blessings.
