Perfect for “Tude”.
You are so welcome. 8^)
Meg, you’re cleaning cobwebs, too? I have been on a web busting rampage for several days now, inside and out!! LOL
My word, I was shocked when I lit up the overhead light in the living room. Just shocked!!
The webs, were soon strings hanging in the air scooped up by my telescope web buster.
I cleaned the entry hall and the curving Victorian steps to the second floor today, I feel so much better having done that. ;)
My back feels like it was hit by a giant back buster. LOL
My daughter has one of those telescoping dusters..They are great..I improvise here. I had recently dusted and cleaned the chandelier..still I had cobwebs. I also have been after my kitchen appliances..I even vacuumed!( most hated house cleaning chore.)
I have to be careful walking out the door. I had an elaborate web right in my face twice!..I spent 30 minutes, even got up on my stepladder in the hall to watch a spider spin his new web outside right next to the windows...Fun to watch.
It doesn’t get the hall shelves cleaned in a timely fashion, though..LOL
You must like Charlotte! LOL
;o)
I wanted to stimulate everyone’s thoughts by posting various virtual meals. Thank you for your kind words.
Good night Soaring Feather. Rest well.
Good morning..Just beautiful, Soaring Feather.
Thank You, Meg.
We have a beautiful day lined up today, temp going into the 70s-just perfect!
It’s already 77 here! I have a bit of sun this morning so I am happy. May and June have been so cloudy and rainy that I rejoice when the sun breaks through.
I know how you feel, it was that way last Summer in the Northeast. It was down right miserable, clammy all the time, temps not getting out of the 60s. September was when Summer began.
A Distant Mindscape
Oh dream, dream of things most celestial I say
and travel universes where anything may be
listen to the music of the spheres in Time’s lee
and paint nebula with the colors of creation in play
Put rings around an empty moon, a curving shadow
that becomes a Cheshire grin on a cratered face
and race the stars and dare them to keep your pace
even as you in all fairness, do a giant comet tow
Collect stardust in a ball, roll it around the void a bit
until a new planet you create, and leave to float there
a surprise you can find later, and rework it with care
and see what odd things it has collected in its orbit
Watch galaxies spin in shapes as complex as a dream
and different as individual souls lit from within by grace
and you just begin to understand about your own place
amid this wonder, and who placed you here I’ll deem
Rejoice in mysteries you explore in gentle dreams each night
amazed at the landscape of your inner self so rich and full
where nothing is impossible, and the common is made null
the land of magic within us all, visible to our inner sight
And for some fun.
Dog drives truck into river...and then the story gets even stranger
AP
(6/23/07 - SAGLE, ID) - Bad dog.
Charlie the black lab drove his owner’s car into the Pend Oreille River.
As Mark Ewing walked home Wednesday evening after returning from picking up a pizza, Charlie jumped into the car through an open window, and apparently knocked the vehicle into gear.
“He somehow got the car into neutral,” Ewing said. “My car just went boom, down an incline and into the drink.”
Ewing could only watch as his Chevy Impala sank into the river. No dummy, Charlie jumped out of the window as the car went downhill.
“There’s nothing weirder than looking at your car cruising down your driveway when you’re not in it and seeing your dog jump out and then watching your car go splash,” Ewing said.
Actually, things got a little weirder when the tow truck driver showed up.
Before the driver dove into the water to hook the car up to his truck, he asked Ewing to hold his dentures.
“My car’s in the drink, I’ve got dentures in my hand and this guy Keith ... goes swimming,” Ewing noted.
Oh my, this is exquisite, so rich with imagery!!
LOL probably did happen just like that. ;)
