I think we can take them, OM!

You can take them she’s with me

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

I think we can take them, OM!

I think not. And starting next week my taxi duties are in the early morning - a great time to catch Lilli!

 

[Lilianna23]

Knowing I got lilis back. And the backs or bottoms, or tops of each and every muffin...

I guess I'll just be passing my muffins around!

My Mrs caught me mumbling to myself,
She's said, if your talking to your friends online you have to type it on your tablet... they can't hear you by mumbling to yourself!

That was you? Hell, man - speak up!!
JK - your Mrs is right. Plus, I have the sound off on my device. Don't want you shouting down the halls or anything.
*shakes head sadly*

I was cleaning out photographs from my phone, and forgot I took this when I was in Boston a few weeks ago.

I’m not really sure of the purpose of this sign or who it intended to be for…

Is it for criminals? POLICE are nearby , don’t commit crimes here!!

Where is it for the police? Police, take notice. There’s are criminals nearby!

We want the Grammar Police
We don't want the Grammar Police
I'm gonna need an official ruling on this coin toss please?

The brain goes faster than the fingers.

In that case, it's spelled "fap fap fap".

Morning G. I think Lilli has a spy while she sleeps.

Indeed I do! We girls stick together to protect each other!

This is a standard around here

But what the hell does it mean?

I am a big fan of clarity!

Yawn as I sip my second cup. A cool morning in the 50s to start the day. Going to enjoy the day - morning with my GF, the afternoon picking up my granddaughter and early dinner with my son. A great day ahead.

That sounds like a wonderful day, B2!

 

[Lilianna23]

Yep, we're dreadful. Troublesome, too. We leave the toilet seats up, piss on the rims-n-floors, eat all the good stuff outta the fridge and don't add it to the shooping list, do the laundry and dress outta the basket, vacuum the middle of the room only, and let the dog under the covers. But, like the dog, somehow we manage to get tooken in and given a home.


That's because we reach the high stuff, move the heavy stuff, fix the broken stuff, and once in a while we remember your birthday and buy something special that's not a new clothes washer.


Happy Monday!!! Wat is working in his shooping list to get some food in here this week. We're gonna take another whack at the s'ghetti sauce. Ethyl is sitting on the floor by my feet.

And somehow, we still like you guys! You're not all that bad. Besides, you're big and muscle-y and warm our feet!

And she does like to tease. Of course we are her fans!

We do like to tease you boys! We even (secretly) like you teasing us back!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

We have our advantages. You can swat us on the nose with a rolled up newspaper if need be.


Or a 2x4 . . . .

Since I’m new to to these here parts allow me to offer to virtually warm your feet. Or cool them if they’re too warm. Or massage them until everything gets too warm

Good thing you don't live in Boston

Thank you baby Jesus. I thought we were having tremors in the Midwest. It's just RJ maxing out his caffeine allowance.

Difficult avoid houses in the distance if you live in the UK unless you live up a mountain. I take what I have. I worked a lifetime for it and its my peice of heaven!

It's like that in the US as well, G. Few have the luxury of a view with no houses. Yours are at a distance, so you're more fortunate than most. I'm happy to have the greenbelt and big trees on both sides of my house! New developments here are created by razing the land, taking down all the trees, putting up houses close together, then planting little spindly trees. They look soulless! What's worse are apartment buildings!

 

[Lilianna23]

I had a lonely weekend...but no whining...its on the list

Awww, sweetie! Try to lean into the alone times. Many of us are lonely even when there's another in the house.

 

[Lilianna23]

It looked like a picture ...camera photos rarely do it justice

You did a great job of capturing it! I saw a cloud yesterday that looked like an eagle! I didn't have my phone with me to get it!

 

[Nicefella]

Awww, sweetie! Try to lean into the alone times. Many of us are lonely even when there's another in the house.

I agree. It’s worse to be lonely when not alone

 

[Lilianna23]

I understand completely. I scored dirt where I did because I could, having worked a lifetime to get there. That whole "lifetime" thing sounds dramatic, but isn't it true? We are near a lake so it's a popular area, but we're up the hill, so it's not as popular where we are.


There's a cattle farm just down the road and the old man died, but it's (sadly) out of the price range.

It sounds idyllic, Wat! I hope the farm isn't bought by developers. They'll put up ugly apartments.

 

[Lilianna23]

This is a great list! I know I can improve everyone of these and probably about 25 more.

A good reminder, and I’m gonna start with number one today - trying to be more present in the moment!

Good morning, W!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

We're not that close to town. It'll be fugly houses.


Little do they know, that's one thought why I'm buying lots - pretty little houses . . . .


If I can swing the financing . . . .

Morning trying to figure out my day. I got told the other day by a co worker that they told the new person on our team that I was "ok at my job" and on the same level as him, but the real "scholar" of the group was our other coworker.....the one that announces out loud that she is a slow learner ..she has a masters degree and that she doesn't understand what people mean when asked a question about our work.....so I am working on being ok today between the meetings that none of them are even invited to, doing work that they don't know how to do, or the multiple assignment cards that are only assigned to me...... not whining but what fucking nerve

Ignore them, hon! Insecure people have to tear others down to make themselves feel better. You know who you are! Carry on like a Queen, girl!

 

[Lilianna23]

I think I could add a few
11. set healthy boundaries
12. Dont be pulled in to others people bs
13. Not every fight is your fight.
14. If you do something that no one asked you to do---- don't expect praise or thanks
15. You are the author of your own story
16. All of your problems are caused by the person you see in the mirror
17. U r a reflection of the people you surround yourself with
18. Lay down with dogs, wake up with fleas
19. Etc etc etc

Good list. I'd just add to chose your dog and make sure to treat her for fleas!

That reminds me of that Seinfeld episode, where Elaine came up with the idea of selling just the muffin tops.

Then they got stuck with all the muffin “stumps” and they couldn’t even give the stumps away.

Slightly flawed business plan!

There are muffin top pans now!

#1 has been my most difficult challenge especially during my late wife’s cancer and after her passing. But it is mandatory I do so to stay positive.

You seem to be doing a good job at it, B2!
