lovely graphic! and happy TGIF to all!

keeping busy with life & too many funerals!

Had a productive morning.. and a nice hour plus doggie hike. in a bit going with friend to see movie. Kick Ass.. the previews looked mixed.. but a few friends from church said it was one of the best movies they had seen for a while. From the previews it appears to be a group of teens who decide to be superheroes (even though they have no “powers”) & the trouble they seem to find.

When I get home after movie/early dinner will work in yard til dark. Have about 5 outdoor projects I want to do in next week. Some involve moving perennials from one bed to another.. maybe I will do that one today. I did get a few of those solar lights for around one flower bed.

Tomorrow is busy day. Dog walk at sunrise. clean up/dress up for chiropractor.. then directly to my Zonta style show (just taking pix this year) and fund raiser. Home for a few hours & then dinner party.. 25th anniversary of the British American Club I attend. My friend Bill, I call him my music man, is playing & my date. That one is dressy.. the earlier luncheon is also dressy but not after fivish

My cav’s lost last night.. boo. so we are 2/1 in best of 5 over the Chicago Bulls.

Hope all have a marvelous weekend!

next game Sunday night & then the next and hopefully last with them is Tuesday.

Just saw your “ Good Night” sweet KittyMittens!

Oh so precious and I DID have a great night’s rest. Very unusual for me to
“ sleep through the night”! That I did!
Now to get a move on here and clean!

Oh, my GOODNESS! I just now saw this little smiling yorkie! What a doll she is, Amy!

Now I’m getting that ‘nesting urge’ again! (I want a puppy!!)

Thank you! I wish she could hop out of my computer, right onto my lap!!

Thank you so much for the link, Rus. The next governor of New York may be a relative of MrJust’s cousins. They have Paladino cousins (older than Carl) in New York.

I like his stand on these issues ....
1) Cut state spending by 20% across the board - he’ll cut taxes and spending by ten percent in the first six months of his administration;

2) Review every department and agency of state government to evaluate efficiency, effectiveness and necessity and cut programs not benefiting the taxpayer;

3) Cut the State’s income tax on manufacturing to keep these businesses in New York and attract new ones here;

4) Require a minimum one-year residency in New York State before someone is eligible for Medicaid benefits;

5) Limit the total time a State Legislator can serve to no more than 8 years;

6) Eliminate the State Legislators’ pension plans and their subsidized lifetime health care coverage since serving in the State Legislature is a part-time position;

7) Require a super majority of 60% of both Houses of the State Legislature in order to raise any state taxes;

8) Eliminate the automatic cost of living pay raises State Legislators get and require legislators to vote to raise their pay and face their constituents; and

9) Require ALL State Legislators to fully disclose the amount and all sources of outside income to guard against conflicts of interest.

I wish a California candidate would come out strong against raising taxes and spending.

I plan to make a small donation to Carl’s campaign. Wish him luck from California.

Amy, tell Marissa (since she likes calamari),
that P F Changs makes the BEST CALAMARI IN THE WORLD!!!

I love it so much, that my friends took
me all the way to Phoenix (the closest P F Changs) for my birthday!

"Now to get a move on here and clean! "

I have heard, that if you clean too much,
Your computer will suffer neglect, and have behavior problems.
