OK, I promised you more “wild art.” How’s this? I drew this to be the cover of my book. Beaucoup Arlo & Janis, but I chickened out. I didn’t want to have to listen to all the juvenile giggling and hooting which I knew would ensue (No, not you!) or to that annoying tut-tutting about children reading the comics. I told you: I chickened out. Instead, I went with a more staid version of a Rodin theme which I thought turned out well enough.

Small world, indeed, Mark.
Thanks, Jean dear. I’ll probably be doing just that for a few days. (I’m taking the week off.)
I know, I know…I went to bed earlier, but have you ever been so tired and wired you couldn’t sleep?
Debbe 😉
Good morning Villagers…..
The closest I’ll get to Yellowstone is through emb’s webcam site….I don’t think my bones could handle the long drive. I start getting antsy when taking long trips, and it’s been years since I’ve done any kind of long traveling.
GR 😉 been there, still there.
I have taped to my wall here next to the computer a list…as a matter of it’s called “Important list”, and the first one listed is ‘the most destructive habit, Worry.’ I sometimes will wake up around 1 or 2 and cannot get back to sleep…such as this morning. My mind will not shut down.
Yup, walked into one big mess at work yesterday….if I would have had those teens there, I’d have wrung their necks….like a chicken. Left a 120 foot long egg block…on the bottom belt. Poor Ian had to break it up as I had to get the lines started…brought in 208 cases…
Jackie thanks for mentioning me to your friend in the poultry business, I don’t think I could work there knowing there were going to be a food source. I do admire your ambition.
Denise, Granny and Jean…thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Thanks TR…couldn’t remember the name or Hanks name. I had Monday morning head slush.
this is one day old, but it’s cute: http://cheezburger.com/8354031360
…and GR, hope your Mom comes home today.
And I babysit the two year old tonight……
Weather here is going to change today….low in the 30’s by the weekend….arrggghhh.
ya’ll have a blessed day
Indy Mindy….that’s one of the many benefits of living out in the country…..we leave the leafs. 🙂
Debbe, I don’t think I ever mentioned that I have a great fondness for chickens. My mother had chickens, both my daughters have chickens, and both my neighbors on either side of me have chickens! I love to hear the roosters crow, but my older daughter had one of the meanest roosters I’ve ever seen in my life. NOTHING would deter him from attacking, so after a while, he had to be put out of our misery. One day, when I retire, I would like to have a few chickens too! And, I am real too. My name is Carol, I live in eastern NC, and best of all I am Granny to eight wonderful grandchildren! Have a good day, all!

is a pinto, no?
eMB…there’s pinto beans and pinto horses 🙂 I think a pinto horse would collapse the sink…I always loved those ‘vintage’ sinks…..along with the old bathtubs….
I’m back and Jackie, what you say is unfortunately true. I should have said something a long time ago but I didn’t want to start a big argument. I once detailed in this space my previous experience with a forum. In that situation I had a contact behind the scenes and we were good friends. The situation became threatening to the point that the police were involved and we were getting emails (on our personal email) supposedly from people who, in fact, did not send them. In other words this was a very sophisticated con. I lost a good friend through the misunderstanding and fear, but I thought that it was best to leave the forum and I have no idea what happened after that. In our case we can probably be sure that this person will return under another name and may have experimented with that already. For myself I will say that I have held many jobs over the years, some of which I had no prior training for at all and I’ve met a lot of interesting people. When I was a kid all of my relatives lived nearby and now we have scattered across the world and I sometimes mention them. I am very glad that my son is taking a job that won’t require travel all over the world, but other than that you may have noticed that I’m not very specific about a lot of things for what I think are obvious reasons.
Best view i have ever seen !
