Thanks! How impressive! They gave me the Earth Science medal at HS graduation (I tried to get out of attending the ceremony but they told me I wouldn’t graduate if I didn’t attend and I actually believed them. Good thing, too. I would have been a really big nightmare rather than a moderate nightmare if I had known the score lol). So much more sophistication! And I never knew I’d be competing until some teacher dragged me somewhere on a valuable Saturday. Things are so much better organized now.

"Sally was watching videos about soil science and found a song teaching the twelve main types of soil. I’m going to try to get guitar chords for it, and then she and Elen can play and sing!"

Teaching the kids dirty songs? I hadn't thought of that.

Gran, wondering how you are doing.
We lost Cardy a couple months back.

I won a national contest in English because we got to take off half a school day for the test. OldTax-lady says, “Always take a test if it’s free!”

There were three white ducks hanging around the dock at our lakeside rental house last week. I called them Twitty, Twerpy, and Sheldon, which is what we call Vlad, James, and Pat when they’re in a deranged nerdy flock.

We gave them some bread, when Frank didn’t finish his lunch, but they weren’t satisfied.

LOL ... Ducks are evil, they expect freebees and when they do not get what the ducks consider enough, they quack and protest. This is why there is a daffy duck. Sure do miss the old cartoons. There were lessons of life in those old cartoons. Bugs was a shunner of daffy, and daffy would go nuts. No offense intended Darkwing.

Praise report: rental has new tenants - husband and wife seeking peace and healing. PJ is in liver failure on the waiting list for a donor. May God have mercy and find her one, soon. In Jesus’ Name. AMEN

The cat seems to have Stockholm Syndrome. It’s probably a setup.

Congratulations on the new tenants!

It’s pouring again here. We went to Walmart.

Learning to endure is something a lot of people can’t do. You are an example of those who maintained faith and endured in spite of the obstacles.

*HUG*

Is like the game of Ducks and Drakes? Never played it and have no clue what it entails, but it looks like the cat is willing.

Furbelow A furbelow has nothing to do with fur. It may be a gathered strip or pleated border to an article of (usually) female...

Not popular these days (or so I'm told).

True - I understand furbelow is no longer popular amongst the fashionable female sects, butt this comment might itself become trimmed with little visible evidence ..... Or worse, cut off entirely.

Yes....my mother told me that, though she used the word in a rather unique manner: The road is not as furbelow the house as I thought it was. Or similar usage.
