Goodness, I thank you, Meg! Isn't it funny if there is something you want to learn, you never get it out of your system? You have to make up your mind and start out calmly and don't rush.....that is what I will tell myself. I've been outside and its beautiful. Filled the bird baths, pulled a few weeds (have a lot more). Sat out there a while and watched the bird critters. Wish thats all I had to do today! I feel tired today...the running yesterday did me in!

(((Hugs)))Awww Have a good day..I should get going on things I need to do instead of doing things I like to do...

I have my days and nights straight again..I am turning off the computer early lest I be tempted into a late nighter.
We’ll see how long my resolve holds.

;o)

Graphic by MamaBear

Only Stranger

Oh, yes, there are worlds out there,
Of taunting mists and zephyred air.
Whose sunsets have a stellar quality.

Where bumble-buzzers hum on by,
Not knowing that they cannot fly,
In search of tasty tidbits savory.

Where feathered lobsters clack their claws,
In posting all the latest laws,
For all who would be peaceful to obey.

And drifting globes of bubble-fruit,
Entice the searchers for such loot,
And faery-gremlins love to dart and play.

Fine poetry is posted there,
For tasteful denizens to share,
And surely there’s a friend so duty-driven,

Who puts the bon mots up in lights,
To hoots and hisses of delight,
All for the joy that they were given!

Everyday I am impressed again by your posts, with graphics by Mama Bear and poetry by Nicknamed Bob. Your repository of their work appears to be unlimited, not unlike your energy.

Thank you kind sir.

As far as energy ... I'm lucky that I saved all their work from 3 years ago. ;^ )
Saves lots of energy when I'm rushed for something with which to open the doors.

Penny Day?

A day for ME???



Bad Penny in the bag!

I am sick today. I am going back to bed. I had a terrible night; coughing, sneezing, sore throat. Nothing more serious than a cold, I am sure. I just need rest. I'll be back when I feel better.

Have a great Friday Amy, Louie, and friends. :-)

Oh, Lori, I hope you are feeling better soon.
All the dirty air that we've had for the past three days is not good for anyone.
Take care of yourself and thank you for today's graphic.

Determination
 
  One may say determination,
is the way in which we strive.
It is our heart, it is our soul,
It is the inner drive.
It's what we feel when we awake,
the catalyst for success.
It makes us drive as we aim high,
it makes us give our best.


Though times get tough and times get hard,
we never cease to fight
Heads held high, shoulders back,
staying focused on the light
And if we just continue,
be it for only one more day,
then it is possible, quite possible,
that we can have that elusive victory.

Dylan Sharkey

LOL

Somedays I'm a turtle and other days I'm a lion.

Happy Lion Hugs.

Most of the time I'm a chameleon. ;^ )

Good Morning Amy and All FRiends! It's Beautiful Here Today at the King's Ranch, with Colorful Flowers Everywhere, and Doggie and I had a Nice Walk this Morning, with me Admiring All those Flowers, and Doggie Chasing a Bunny. The Cute Bunny was in No Danger; Doggie has Pestered him Before, and can Never Reach him, Lol.

Hugs to All!


~Happy Turtle Day~
