Speaking of CS Lewis, I’m finally getting a hardbound copy of the “Screwtape Letters.” Lots of food for thought in late night reading. Which is what I do, since my social life went out the window some 30 years ago, when CFIDS took over.
Call it “early retirement with no perks.”
Sitting here at “work” with my doors and windows open listening to the chatter of birds, and feeling the late Spring breeze. There’s a Mocking Bird railing at my cat because she went to the door to peer out at the world.

Can you guess this word?

That happens to Jake all the time, but Carolina wrens are even scarier.
Lemme know if you’re still up, and I’ll send pictures.
Yes, I’m still up and I will be for a while, because, neck.
It sounds like it certainly was!
Trying out a new tagline...
Ah, yes, Wookie Planet C...
Yellacat smushes stripycat.
Good morning. No sunrise pictures today. It’s cloudy and maybe raining.
Good morning.
Sorry about no sunrise. We only get about four or five of those a month.
Did you sleep well?
I’m going to try and schedule the MRI today. I don’t want this nerve damage to be permanent.
Happy Friday, Wordle Ganag!
Here’s hoping your day is a good one.

Now I’m off to the shower, VERY late!
After that, I’ll get to work on my letter to Charlie. He’s not doing well at all. :o[
See ya in a bit!
Good morning. Happy Friday!
We got up early because of another Princess seizure. She is fine now, but smells a little ripe. We tried dry pet shampoo so she wouldn’t have to have 2 baths today (one for this, one for the groomer). I won’t give the shampoo 5 stars, but it should get us through.
The weather was a little better this morning. 40fs instead of 30. We’ll see if it still wants to rain tomorrow.
Yesterday’s Wordle word was one Mrs. ArGee had never heard. My mom used to use it, but as part of a silly phrase, not as a normal word. Do they actually use that in the UK regularly?
Anyway, I made it in 4 today.

Yes, yesterday’s Wordle word is in common usage in the UK today, as well as some of it’s commonwealths. (No pun intended.)
I’m sorry that your sweet goggie has so many seizures. I hope something can be found to help her. Does she like being groomed? Most dogs seem to get a real kick out of it.
I used to take Jocko, the wire-haired terrier to get groomed and he was The King when he was done. My inner dog lover says The Princess comes out as The Queen.
Good job on the four.
It would have been four for me as well, but I realized the one letter that was “floating” could only have been used one way, and so it was.
Good Friday Morning!
Another week has rushed by again... Sorry to hear about Princess having an issue this morning...
When I saw what yesterday’s word was, I figured that it may be obscure to anyone not in a rural setting... we use it around here a bit... I guess that is why it popped into my mind right away...
Not sure if they are editing or curating the current Wordle with any slant toward the UK anymore... it doesn’t seem like it...
Lately it seems with the combo of the two words I have been using as 1-2 or 2-1, I either eliminate a ton of letters, and/or get some hits...

Hoping that your trip has been very enjoyable!!
