“There we go; the banners, sand, and other decorations are in the trash.  Now the only thing left, are the beachballs . . .  I’m glad the Vice Principal assigned you & me to do the decorating, for the ‘Fake Summer’ class party this year.  I just love these forty-inch balls you got for it.

“She said we only had to have everything cleared out . . .  We COULD just deflate them, and throw them in the trash, . . . Buuuuuut . . .

“The only problem I have with decorating for parties with beachballs, is that no one ever thinks of having fun popping them, unlike balloons.  Sometimes I think it isn’t fair to let beauties like these just sit around doing nothing.

“What’s that?  Take them home, you say?  Well . . . *giggle*  I’m going to let you in on a little secret.  Just between you and me.

“I HAVE taken home beachballs, and other inflatables.  Lots of times, in fact.  My room is decorated with all kinds of inflatable things, I’ve played with.

“The thing is, I don’t take them home in ONE piece, understand ?

“Tell you what.  It’s pretty late, and you might want to take one or two home yourself.  I’ll help you deflate the ones you want to keep . . .  And then we can have some fun together, bursting the rest !”

I was working on a different picture, but it was not turning out how I originally wanted, so I started from the ground up on a new one.  This is part of the reason why I did not have anything colored for January.  Sorry.
