The birth of Yolinda.



Yolinda was conceived during a lake side walk, which sounds a lot more scruffy than the reality.  So I shall amend that to the IDEA of Yolinda was conceived during a lake side walk.

My man has a habit of making up names.  Mostly ridiculous, but some rather funny, and I frequently change names three to four times a day.  Usually I'm Mac-something, like Jarrod MacKrakken or Gerhkin MacCheese or Gustave Flaubert McSoufflebuch.  On this day as we were walking the grown up pup, he declared that I had a new name.  I immediately became weary.

"What", I said.

"Your new name", he said gesturing to nothing in particular, "is Yolinda"!

I already had my mouth open in protest but stopped mid "NO".

"N-ooooh I actually like that one".  But I needed a surname as well.
"You are Yolinda Sczvasvashniak" he said snort-laughing.
I grinned, "I like it" I said.

Later at the shops my man again declared "You have a NEW......", but I stopped him mid gesture.
"No", I said.  "I have a name, it's Yolinda".

And so Yolinda was born.  She is me and I am her.
A woman of questionable talent and many passions, but who gets distracted rather too easily.

One might say she has not enough fingers and too many pies.
