I'm hoping again that these storms that have taken aim at us and are now in Iowa either fizzle out of drop south of us. Send good Karma please. Our little river is still over the banks.

Not again! I hope you catch a break soon!

Thanks. I'm getting super excited. We have 3 days to spend at the parks before D23. I just made Fantasmic and World of Color dinner reservations.

I'm beyond and take lots of pics! jealous! It's going to be a few years before we can hit the west coast! So have a great time

The 18 year old was so wired yesterday and she retold their experience on zero sleep in 48 hours. At first blush if I didn't know the tale she could have been wired on drugs...odd what terror does to ya.

3 out of the 4 looked better today after sleep. The Dad, he still has that blank look on his face.

Glad to hear they're doing better!

@MouseDreaming I hope you got a good night's sleep with your baby away!

OK all this dirty toe talk is making me feel like I need to wash my feet.

ROFLOL It reminded me I'm getting a pedi Saturday! YEA finally because my feet are a mess. Last time I went to get my nails done it was a bit cool to get my feet done as well and I was pressed for time! Now I'm trying to think about what color to get them done Minnie pink or Figment purple?

Something about Texas Ranger, I couldn't take him seriously in his role, he always made me laugh and it wasn't a comedy. Kinda like Horatio Cane in CSI Miami-even his name didn't fit.

Aw, c'mon . . . Walker was all-powerful, all knowledgeable, and he ALWAYS got the job done!!

Good morning @MinnieM123

That's a great pin! I haven't paid too much attention to the various pins over the years, but I guess there are quite a few of them. I laughed when I saw this picture, because what were the chances that there would be Figment wearing a big Mexican hat pin?! Well done!!

Yippee!! I'm so excited, and I'm not even the one going out there! (Please keep the updates coming!)

Walter has nose art perfected. He even stalks me as I wash the Pup Window.

There is something about trying to wipe of dried dog nose dribble off a window. A unique substance.

Tell me about it. It's thicker than it looks, and you have to scrub to get it off the windows! (P.S.: I love how Walter stalks you when you're washing his slobber off the window!) Dogs think that certain things are correct, and get all freaked out when their humans mess with perfection!! A bit unrelated here, but it reminds me a little of trash day, when hubby takes out the trash can from the kitchen; Jack has this look of horror and doom as he watches his master take out all "his" wonderful garbage that's been in the barrel for a week!

 

[MinnieM123]

Even more boys woulda' probably taken it if they'd a' called it "Food Mechanics"...!

ETA:
Or, maybe "Culinary Engineering"...!!!

We have one window Walt can genuinely see out of. When we got new furniture in the livingroom we arranged it so he wouldn't loose his window, he would have been so sad. It is next to front door and is 1 1/2 foot off the floor.

He spends a lot of time guarding the neighborhood, announcing passer-byers, dogs, sometimes cars, squirrels and lord forbid he is awake at night, skunk, possums and raccoon. Nothing like being awaken in the middle of the night to a possum digging a hole looking to munch on bugs.

Ha ha ha!! All dogs think they have a "job" and Walter takes his responsibilities very seriously.

Meanwhile, Jack's job is to see how many times a day he can get underfoot! He's a 4-legged blockade and we're constantly telling him to move out of the way, or we push him aside. I mean he'll plop himself directly in front of wherever you want to walk. Then if you walk over to open up a cabinet, for example, and then step backwards, you end up standing on his paw--because he also plops himself directly behind you, if you stop even for a moment. Stalking behavior?

My dog's job is to get the boys in trouble. I'm not kidding every time her water bowl is empty or she wants go out she goes over to one of my boys and starts crying. Sometimes she goes over by one of them and starts crying for no reason

You had to even ask yourself this question? It's Minnie pink, of course!!!

Clearly, she has the boys wrapped around her little finger, or should I say, paw? Dogs are masters of manipulation, and they know it!!

That's what color they are now, with flowers on the ring fingers.

No it's more like she has me wrapped around her paw. She likes to hear me yell at the boys.

Ha!

I want a Minnie Cozy Coupe! (It's stylish, and looks just about my speed! )

facepalm = action of being so frustrated that you slap your forehead with the palm of your hand.
The action was heavily popularized online with the advent of "image macros".
Making Captain Picard one of the most popular ones.

smile with the tongue out = just being silly

Thank you for the information, maybe I need a new Dictionary, mine is only 50 years old!

 

[betty rose]

when you say shooting.. as in firing a gun and hitting cars?

Yes, we have been dealing with this for about a month now. The police put up a picture, of the suspected truck. Hope they catch this person soon!
