Fantastic.

Um, Ma...what’s Randy going to eat? :-)

[MoJo2001]

There’s a word somewhere for your room at the moment.

It has something to do with pig and sty I believe.

Where’s the fire marshall when you need him?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Ummmmmmm....it was. Everything has been moved. I need my stuff where I can reach it. And that was at the end of a long weekend. I did clean it up some for the new week.

Is your shop area neat and tidy?

[Kathy in Alaska]

wh !!

MoJo.....#350!!

[BIGLOOK]

Well I'm not holding my breath....

Actually it's sulfur. Seems to be acceptable to Democrats and isn't reported in the news. WTH...

[MoJo2001]

BIGLOOK!!

*HUGS*

How are you doing this fine evening??

[Randy Larsen]

Let me put it this way!

When I think of leaving I get BIG TEARS in my eyes......

But, when it comes to others telling me what I should and shouldn’t post to my fellow troops, I get mad!

I’ve tried to walk the fine line...to no avail!

It seems to me, THE CANTEEN, is for families more than the TROOPS!

I’m totally lost!

[Kathy in Alaska]

I'm old....I need a personal attendant to clean and dust and put things away where I can always find them.

[Randy Larsen]

Oh Ma!

Now that hurt!

Want some dust? The only thing clean are my laptops!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Seems to be acceptable to Democrats and isn't reported in the news.

Seems to be the way these days. Have you gotten any pictures?

[MoJo2001]

Ma-—Randy’s lost. Could you please find him a compass?

[Randy Larsen]

Ha!

Ma knows me!

Thanks Mojo!

[Kathy in Alaska]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

No more dust. I have plenty lurking in out of the way places.

[Randy Larsen]

....The dreaded dust bunnies!

Want some hair balls?

[MoJo2001]

Where’s my Mastiff?? Huh?? You promised me.

[MoJo2001]

Ma’s a meanie. She won’t let me have a Mastiff.

[MoJo2001]

Where’s Bubbles?? Huh?? Huh?? Huh??

[Kathy in Alaska]

Bubbles?

[BIGLOOK]

Talofa Little Sister!

Pretty tired and heading off to bed....

Tomorrow's Friday and somehow it's the busiest day of the week.

I need my beauty sleep which hasn't been working that well lately.

[Kathy in Alaska]

No thanks....I’m still finding hair balls from my cats.
