"I only use books to make wobbly tables level anyway, myself."

If you put my book under your table, to keep it from being wobbly, you would return one day to find out that they had both run away from home.

I didn't take my walk today. I waited until too late, then hubby's cousin dropped in.

I doubt that we will walk. I need to start getting ready for the rally no later than 3:30.

Maybe I can yell at the peacenics tonight; I wonder if that would count as exercise? : )

The table and the book? Tables have legs, but books?

NO problem. I don't blame you for being bitter. Certainly no need to apologize.

I do not understand how women can be unfaithful while their husbands are risking their lives defending our freedoms.

I just wanted to tell you how lucky I think you are for being rid of her!!

Very nice, Old Sarge, I wish I had said that. I like to think that I was thinking it anyway.

You know, it had the feel of the one you wrote for that one I asked you to write about - the Dancing together poem - the old man and the woman who had been together for such a long time and were still....dancing. :)

"Why would you need a poetry machine when you have us?"

LOL .... So true!!

Amy's Place is not spending money on a poetry machine!!

I hope neither of you told Old Sarge what high wages, I pay!!

That I am. I do, however, wish things could have turned out differently, for our daughter's sake. I also *hate* being Tragically Single, so every now and again I take a big gulp of self-pity -- but it's usually followed by a chuckle, a grin, and a mild obscenity in Serbian relating to her parentage.

Who knows, maybe there's a FReeper lady out there :)

Lovely graphic, Billie.....and, lovely poem, Old Sarge.

Thanks, Lori - I don't know how Amy keeps up with all of it - I know how many I've sent her that haven't been used yet! Am sure you've done as many. I sure hope she's paying us both the same. :)

Thank you! I will pass to Mrs T-T and Ma-in-Law.

I'll be the only visitor Ma has for next week or so while Mrs T-T and F-I-L are gone. (She's in rest home.) Plus taking care of dogs, and cat, and two houses...oh yeah and going to work and school.

Dang! I'll be busier that I thought.

Scrub Jays

Please note the uniform, half blue and half in gray,
A confusion of the Civil War, ‘cause we’re civil in no way.
We tend to be aggressive, to those around our nest,
So wear your battle helmets. Another route is best.

But after we have raised them, they’re on their own one day,
You wouldn’t think we’d want these brats around us anyway!
They’ll have to find their own nest, and guard it as we did,
But by the way we carried on, they won’t need to keep it hid!

"delighted to see you're not being as stingy with the graphics/poems combinations as you were at first"

I am comfortable using them now. I think you and MamaBear are hooked so I won't have to worry about running low. LOL

I can now post poems and graphic all day long!! ; )
