You better be careful before your neighbors start to think you are on welfare and saying "Man that guy is never doing anything!"

I’m a well-known neighborhood slacker...l’m not gonna’ betray that image and let them down now...!!!!!

Nope, they approved the written Declaration on the 4th, signed it August 2nd.

almost correct the last signatures were done after that

I was hoping that wasn’t the case

Even James knows they are friends

@figmentfan423 , what did James think of Joey Chestnut's win yesterday? (71 dogs in 10 minutes!! )

He won $10,000 for first place.

I heard a chorus of I wish he set a new record

End of a classic publication --

Mad Magazine will vanish from newsstands after 67 years

Once a cultural touchstone, Mad Magazine is halting the publication of new content and vanishing from newsstands.

Sad. I remember kids would bring it to school.

I'm not kidding about the bail fund if I even hear one boom tonight. I almost fell asleep walking from the car into my house

Torchy’s Tacos for lunch today...!!!!!
One beef and one Baja Shrimp...the sauce on the left is a scorcher and goes well with a beef or pork taco, the one in the middle is kinda like a spicy tartar sauce for the shrimp, and the one on the right is a roasted red pepper salsa...SO. DARN. GOOD...!!!!!!!

Tex Mex, yum! That sounds so good to me now and it is nothing like I made today. I made a meatless Italian loaf like figgy suggested the other day, cabbage salad, potato and cucumber salad, zoodles with a creamy lemon sauce. It was delicious at lunch, but darn, a veggie fajita would really hit the spot right now.

Any uplifting thoughts or good vibes going? I need a few right now...

{{HUGS}} I'm not sure this counts but I knocked a few items off my Christmas hopping list and saved about 75% off what would have been the total and I get to go to bed in an hour and a half my work for today is done and my boys cleaned the kitchen for me

Nice work! I cleaned our “school room” and the big project for the weekend is my oldest switching rooms with youngest so that she has her own room. I am not looking forward to this project. I just realized how much stuff they have.

We went to this huge garden with all kinds of different statues and decorations this morning.

The kids loved it because they could touch everything and climb on certain statues.

Great pics...!!!!!
The one pic reminds me of these statues at a local auction house (sans the color and newspapers )...



If you drive by it at night the lighting makes it look like there are 6 real people standin’ out front shootin’ the breeze...!!!

I feel your pain, I cleaned out and organized James' room while he was away. I think kid's stuff multiplies faster than rabbits. Today's addition palm tree lights for his room

Well the ac guy just left. Apparently we need a whole new unit for the downstairs. $7-8k in total. Thank goodness we paid for American Home Shield. Hopefully we will not have to pay anything but the $100 service call. It may take a couple of weeks to fix, but I don’t care. Upstairs still works. The downstairs unit is over 15 years old.

The like was for only having to pay for the service call.
