Just a guess, so don't quote me on that, ok? shame


Ana you'd be so proud of me I did my iron man walk yesterday. I walked around 2 city blocks in 93 degree temps. haha


Actually I was dragged by a chihuahua. puppy


Her dog chow must have roids in it. duh


I'm going to buy her a treadmill. yes


Have a happy day everyone.


Ana congratulations on your accomplishment!

L4L & Soot I'm so glad to hear that Kioki is going to be alright.

Sorta B your house is nice. Your kitty is adorable, and the peacock is beautiful.

Have a terrific Thursday Joe, Ana, Gerry, Connie, Gail and all who follow. wave

I'm off today, and I have a voice lesson. rah I was supposed to have had two extra days off this week, but on Tuesday I checked my schedule, and there was extra time entered for today. Luckily, I when I asked my manager if I could work yesterday instead, she said yes, so my lesson is still on. happydance

So now I'm off to get ready and maybe do a little gaming afterward before it's time to go. thumbsup

Hope everyone has a fantastic day. summer

Good afternoon everybody. wave2

It's been a busy morning for me here. I'm just recovering from a triathlawn . shocked

I mowed, trimmed, and raked the lawn. I was soaking wet when I finished, but it sure looks good. hamster

Before that I took the girls to the park. Now I have to finish lawndry, and cleaning Pepper's penthouse. lol

Ana I hope you don't think I'm making fun of what you do, because I admire everything you do. You give us all something to aspire to. praise

No, I'm just laughing at myself. wink

Lunch time. joy

Enjoy your day everyone. thumbsup

Joe, you always make me smile!

Ana, I'll be with you in spirit!

I was trying to get some veggies cooked up in the kitchen, but Keoki thought that was a terrible idea. I'll take a break with him and try again when hubby gets home to Keoki sit.

He wants to be where mom is, but mom can't carry him up there at the moment, and he is not allowed to walk up them. But I'm sure he would take bacon...I would!
