oh no!! she looks as though she's met the guillotine!! i'm hoping she perished by somewhat 'natural' circumstances, and was not a victim of vandalism. 'statutory' abuse?!
@bcurrie@digitalrn@slava "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade!" I thought the remains has a creeps "Halloween" twist and made use of it before Ken took cement epoxy and put her back together again! This wasn't the first time she'd been through a Frankenstein repair... No "culprit" has come forward, but a fat cat is suspect...
Kate is 1976. They're both blonds, if I remember your recent Chicago photos correctly, and of course they're both sensitive, generous. independent, beautiful inside and out, and the best friend to us and their friends. Right? Yes, I thought so. Aquarius, water babies. :-)
Oops! Glad she can be repaired and will look "as good as new" again! Fat cat - watch out! If it is any comfort - and it isn't - the Mermaid in Copenhagen has had many heads stolen.
OH NO! I do have to say that I really like this picture....I like looking down at the book in this shot! But please put her head on....and don't punish the cat either. It was an accident! :)
Oh, my how sad and yet wonderfully gothic. Glad to know she was repairable (is that a word?).
I thought it was funny that the referral back to your Feb. 17th photo showed that you...YOU!...had only ONE comment on your photo. Oh, what a difference 8 months can make! :-)
glad she's back together again! that cat! My black cat has always knocked things down, and now the other one (who was always so innocent) has decided to take lessons!
@fysmith I added the link with the photo to what it looked like when I first photographed it for this project! Upadate: Ken reattached the head and she looks none the worse for having had the terrible accident!
Back in January I took a picture of snow-covered St. Francis in my garden http://365project.org/allie912/365/2010-01-30 He has lost his head and been repaired and I know The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen has been repaired several times. Just keep in mind the poem "If" by Rudyard Kipling who encourages us,
"If you can keep your head
While those around you,
Are losing theirs
And blaming it on you..."
@allie912 I would love to have used that snippet of poetry if I'd been as clever as you! Poor little dear seems to be in good company, and though she looks like she's been garrotted, her silhouette from afar is pleasing again...

Glad Ken could put her together again :D

Poor Guy...
