I am around

 Lyrics from the musical Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street:

Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around.
Nothing's gonna harm you, no sir, not while I'm around.

Demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays,
I'll send 'em howling,
I don't care, I got ways.

No one's gonna hurt you,
No one's gonna dare.
Others can desert you,
Not to worry, whistle, I'll be there.

Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...

Not to worry, not to worry
I may not be smart but I ain't dumb
I can do it, put me to it
Show me something I can overcome
Not to worry, Mum

Being close and being clever
Ain't like being true
I don't need to,
I would never hide a thing from you,
Like some...

No one's gonna hurt you, no one's gonna dare
Others can desert you,
Not to worry, whistle, I'll be there!
Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...



Sometimes I feel like Mrs. Lovett.
"Times is hard.  Times is haaaard."
And Aveline is my darling, sweet little angel that makes me feel safer and happier than anyone else in the world.  Makes me feel like the burdens I bear and try to bear are not truly mine or they are a lot lighter than they seem.
This year has been so amazing...
just wishing it would never end.... for the most part.

xoxo...
Vanessa
