Say what??

The Ohio and Texas primaries are coming up and since I’m in Ohio the political adds are getting thick on the air waves. Some of them make me feel funny inside. You know, like when you go over a hill top in a car going to fast. LOL

Local ones are often amusing. The national candidates are the best though. Talk about creative writing. It’s amazing.

I’m not saying a thing about who I like or don’t like. Just commenting on the amazing fiction, perhaps we could call it inspirational writing. Sometimes I wanna stand on my head and see if it makes more sense reading it that way.

Humph, it's still winter.

I want spring. I want flowers and humming birds. Gardens and weeds. All of it.

I miss sitting on the back patio after weeding my herb garden. This year my daughter and I are planing a fairy garden. We saw it on one of those gardening shows and fell in love with the idea. It can be done as small as a potted plant dish or so large as to walk in it. We have the room to do the large one, so gonna do it. I hope. The key is making it surprising with hidden delights.

What are you looking forward to doing in Spring?

Metal heart throb

I slept through the end of the show so hopefully I missed the really good part. Coz if I didn't, things ain't looking good.
But what does look good is Kit. Yummmm... A Muscle Car on illegal steroids and I like it. Kit should have had a deeper voice. Perhaps we could have a computer clitch and get his vocals lowered. Muscle Cars should sound deep and dark.

Shhh, I'z bean'n followed

This is not Pebbles, but I love the expression. Puggles are amazing little people.

I had no idea what I was in for when the cutest puppy ever captured my heart. Two pairs of slippers, for every member of the family, the undercover of a living room chair, the batting off the bottom of my box spring, the chewy demise of many Barbies and several Polly Pockets, as well as the sad death of a few stuffed toys later, we can’t imagine what we did with our time before she arrived.

Pets aren’t really pets. People are the ones blessed with their fearless, loving hearts. They teach us the important stuff. Here are a few.

Snow is the best stuff for run-hopping.
Every morning is a happy time.
Family is worth dieing for, or at least barking your head off to protect.
All food is good if it’s on a human plate.
Licking said plate is polite. Indicates appropriate appreciation.
Teaching child person to pick up toys is easy. Toy left out, toy gone.
I’m always happy to see you.
Naps are best shared.
Trash cans MUST have secure tops.
Any time we spend together is good.
It’s never a bad time to say I love you.
Sharing everything we own builds character.
I don’t care what you watch on TV, as long as we are together on a comfy chair.
Comfy couch is better with all family members in it.
Mud is fun.

I’d love to see what your pets have taught you.
