I must confess..I adore cleaning house..especially vacuuming under things..moving chairs..and my favorite..with the crevice tool around the edge of the carpet..The roar of a vacuum cleaner is so soothing to my ears.

That whole thing just absolutely hit my giggle box. I love it.

It is second after going to dentist. G.G. and I were having fun tonight talking about paying the dentist to hurt us. I told her I could find someone to hurt me for free. We went on and on......sometimes, everything is just too funny. And it makes you feel good, doesn’t it?

Good to hear from you - thanks for the ping.

4 weeks can be an eternity....
I feel for you.

And sorry about the mouse and tv. bummer.....

I took Charlotte to work with me today. If left alone, she can wiggle out of her onesie :( and will chew her sutures.

She barked at everyone and tried to hide a chew someone gave her. New behavior I’m seeing.

She’s very cute.

Not so much anymore, whenever outside the Northeast I was regularly asked to say, “pahk the cah in hahvaad yahd.”

You need to have a vacation in North Maine where they don’t get many outside visitors. You might have a time understanding some of them.

Words that end in “er” are pronounced “ah.” Mainer = Mainah. Car = Cah. Mother and Father = Muthah and Fathah. Water = Watah. You get the drift.

Conversely, words that end in “a” are sometimes, but not always, pronounced “er.” California becomes Californier. Idea becomes idear. Yoga becomes Yoger.

Drop the “g” in “ing.” Stopping and starting = stoppin’ and startin’, or more correctly, stoppin’ and stahtin’.

Broaden a and e sounds. Calf becomes cahf. Bath becomes bahth. Can’t becomes cahn’t.

Drag out some one-syllable words into two syllables. There becomes they-uh. Here becomes hee-ah. As in, “You can’t get theyuh from heeyuh.”

G'Night everyone!

This print is one that my best friend has, hanging in her living room, and I love the sweetness, innocence and inner spiritualness it portrays.

“nighty night”, Luvie! Remember just a little over 6 months ago? We were all having dinner together at Javelina Cantina in Sedona!

Today (November 22) is my ‘year and a half’ anniversary on FR. Think I’ll make it another year and a half?
