She said muscles are a must

My abs have turned to flab

My biceps are dangling

I will start lifting weights.

I grit my teeth, my eyes get crossed

and almost pop out

I might need a spotter.

Yes I'm grumpy

Along came AI

now I look frumpy

My girth is a curse

In the spring of my life,

this was ME

I was the cat's meow

I could prowl, jump high and low

Now I could not even carry 

my ladies purse

Pardon me, I mean you no harm.

It is spring, the bright sun shines

 I must plan the picnic

For  which my beary lovely lady pines.

Per chance do you have any Grey Poupon?

Sincerely

Brownie da furry, fuzzy Tushie Bear

 Mr. Bluebird

sitting on my window ledge,

staring into my house.

Tap, tap, tapping on the glass.

Do you see a mouse

Perhaps you are trying say HI

from up in the sky.

When you get my attention, you

spread you wings...jump up

into the air and back down.

Be very careful my fine feathered friend,

it would make me frown.

If upon the ground, you were  found. 

The video is about 10 seconds. In beginning you can see his shadow

Music is from YouTube playing on my tv

This photo reminded me of a similar story about Madi....

Flashback May 6, 2010

What is that lovely aroma?

A few nights ago, we went directly from home to supper then came directly home.

Evidently while we were gone, we either picked up a very good smell or a very bad smell.

Madi immediately noticed something was different about us.

She started with my shoes

nope it isn't Mom's...let me check out Dad's

oh baby this is it. Dad what in the world did you walk in?
Can I have some on my head? Yes right there please

ummm let me see if your left shoes smells as good as your right oh boy that one is even better.

Madi continue to push and shove at her Dad's shoes until he finally said here take the shoes

She then became even more obsessed with them. I moved them to the bedroom,

she followed me in there continued to sniff and bite at them. I finally sprayed the bottom of them. with Clorox Anywhere. Then put them in the closet.

Her Dad said he had the shoes on all day but she showed no interest in them until after supper.

I don't know what he walked in but it certainly appealed to Madi's senses.

Maybe there is a little K9 in our feline.

Excuse Me Madam

My name is Owen D. Owl

I am a male air mail carrier

faster than greased lightning 

I'm wise and careful

I heard your mail delivery was hit or miss

MOSTLY MISS

This piece is past due

It is the thank you note from Will to you.

Owen D. Owl to you I say I am most thankful and this is why.

Back story

Thankful Thursday 

Will is the oldest child of two young folks I meet when they enrolled in NCSU at age 18.  I watched their relationship blossom. I attended their wedding and the baby showers for both their children. Will is a delightful young man I've known for all of his 18 years. He recently graduated from high school with honors. They live 3 or 4 miles from us.

Will's thank you note to us had quite the journey.  Informed mail service I receive via email told me it on the way.  It finally arrived.   I have never received a piece of mail with two post marks.  First one was in the standard place at the top by the stamp, second one was on the bottom under our address.

His Mom told many of the thank you notes he sent out are being returned with

"incorrect address" in fact the addresses are CORRECT.  They have to put each one in a new envelope and another stamp.  

Will is pursuing a college degree in sports medicine and nutrition and hopes to become a Physical Therapist

Play Date 

It was Dad's day to play

I had lots of plans and fun things on my list. 

He fell into a deep asleep

I fell into disgruntled dismay.

I wanted to color 

 I could not reach my crayons

So I used Mom's make up.

If he doesn't want to look like a dope,

he will need lots of soap.
