Finally...it started tonight with “come sit”.

What are all the branches doing in the neighbors driveway?

There is only an empty driveway.

Well, check it in the morning. Maybe they move them every day.

No branches.

I need to move this table a little...about 3 inches.

Why?

So there will be more room for whoever sits here.

No one sits there. That is where your wheel chair goes.

Well you sit here sometime.

No. There is no chair, only room for your wheel chair

But I find your candy wrappers.

I don’t touch your stuff. I put it there for you. Any wrappers are yours.

Well what about the day care sign across the street?

No signs, no day care. (this one recurs over and over and over) I had to leave before I screamed. I have since fallen asleep at my computer. I’m headed to bed soon.

Ah....the never ending honey-do list! That’ll keep him from being “bored”! LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

May they rot in a dungeon somewhere.

Hear! Hear!!

I just hope Trump sticks to what he's been doing with the so called press....cut them off!!!

They deserve NO consideration from him AT ALL!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good night, my. Thanks for helping honor our military, and thank you for your service to our country.

[Kathy in Alaska]

"...they said it’s hard for crews to get in to fight it because gov’t. restrictions don’t allow heavy equipment in there."

Heard this one more than once in California. People were not "allowed" to clear around their own homes. Only those who told the government to shove it and cleared anyways saved their homes.

THE HEIGHT OF STUPIDITY!!

(I pried the "T" off and doused everything with alcohol. I think the "T" is now working.)

[Kathy in Alaska]

wh!!

Thanks, unique.

my.....#50!!

[luvie]

Absolutely no consideration. All they’ve done is try to discredit conservatives for years and they should get their comeuppance!

Oh...and WooHoo to you! :) Nite. See ya tomorrow, Night Owl!

[E.G.C.]

A very pleasant good Thursday morning to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

((HUGS))Good morning, Kathy. How's it going?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, E...((HUGS))...how is hunting now that winter time is upon you?

You and Bo have a good Thursday.

[E.G.C.]

Well, Bo found a turtle on Monday so turtle season may not be over yet. We’ll see how today goes.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Did Roxy come home? Hoping everything is ok.

[Kathy in Alaska]

WTG, super hunter, Bo!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Prayers for Arrowhead's recovery, and in his absence....

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night Troops, wherever you are.

Thank you for doing your part to help keep all of us free and safe.

Thanks, unique, for the pastries.

Coffee is always on........

How about a cupcake?

Cookies?

Veggies?

Sandwich?

[Kathy in Alaska]

God bless and keep safe our troops worldwide.

Good night.

Hoo boy, you’ve had a night, haven’t you? Sounds like she’s getting worse, and quickly. Is there any reality left?

Just got back online here. Apparently Comcast had some maintenance or something to do and did it tonight. One minute we had internet, the next it was gone. *sigh* TV was out for a short time, too, but it came back much sooner than the internet.

[radu]

Yeah, we’ve heard about the nonsense about people in CA not being allowed to clear around their homes. We’d have been among those who told the gubmint to stick it where the sun don’t shine!

YAY on getting the “T” to behave again. :-)

[radu]

Yes, she finally showed up around 1:30 a.m. She was shivering and VERY hungry but ok. Needless to say, she hasn’t been back outside. Little girl is grounded.
