Good morning everyboomie.


I'm not at all excited about starting this day.


It requires something that I am fundamentally opposed to in principal.


Waking up.


It's a very sad thing that happens to me all too often often, and that's why every morning I'm forced to drown my sorrows in coffee.


It's not what I'd call the elixir of life..............well maybe.


To me it's the elixir of re-animation.


It helps me control my rigor mortis.


Morning stiffness ain't what it used to be.


Have a happy morning everyone.


joe

Joe! If I was drinking my coffee I'd have spit it out.
Hope you wake up and have a happy day!

Have a great day all! Errands and trivia is on the agenda.

Good Morning Joe, Ana, Haroula and everyone. Coffee and tea are ready.
Hope you all have a great day!

Good morning everyone, have a Wonderful Thump Day. Not sure what's on the agenda for the day yet, except my morning walk. Danish, BB Pancakes, and Assorted Muffins in the NC.

Good Morning Boomers

Nan

Another hot, dry day here. Dusty all over inside and out. Leaves falling off trees all over crisp and dry. Can't keep up with the watering or my bill will be as high as the national debt!

The 3 little kittens are still 'learning'. Mom is now taking them around the yard, expanding their 'area'. Caught TWO of them almost scooting out UNDER the front fence gate towards the main sidewalk at the street! Went out and scared them back. So far no repeat of that one. They are all so different. One is momma's girl. She is so shy and hardly comes out unless it's to eat and then I can touch her just a bit before she runs off. One of the boys is the 'alpha' who is the first to do everything and especially the most playful. The last boy (long hair) is so sweet and is a combo of the other two. He comes to me, lets me pick him up and has actually found his 'purrrr'. Amazing. Likes being petted more than food. I am crossing fingers that all 3 make it to adulthood.

Thumping Good Thursday ya'll

It's cool in AL Dogs and I are getting ready to go out for a ramble, and then I'll finish the books when I get back. Last night was more up than down, so the possibility of a nap is high.

Howdy ho, sweet Joe! Thanks for the openers! You make us laugh! Have a terrific Thump Day!

Good morning, sweet 'Boomies!

Been unusually warm here for November! Looking forward to cooler weather!

Alrighty, off to see what's afoot!

Good afternoon Boomers.

Good afternoon SpaceQ and all!
