Random creatures.

Momma Chuck is back…

.

.

And enjoying some broccoli.

.

.

Early spring means red winged black birds, starlings and grackles.

.

.

Lots of them.

.

.

And they’re hungry. So hungry they devour the suet cake in less than an hour and strip three feeders in two. It’s a pricey time of year.

.

.

We have three or four skunks who visit every night but one little guy arrives early, oftentimes alongside the deer.

That does not however, mean he likes them.

(Please ignore the background noise. The husband was battling an angel food cake container)

.

.

Skunk -1.

Deer -0.

.

.

And then there’s Lord Dudley Mountcatten who waits patiently for his morning coffee.

.

.

He doesn’t actually drink it…

.

.

Just likes to lick the mug when the husband is finished.

Cats.

What can you do?

News you can’t use.

Because the useful news is too depressing these days.

.

.

Like my mother used to say…

It’s always the last place you look.

.

.

Not my idea of a stylish pendant, or pin for that matter.

.

.

Sounds like the perfect vacation spot to me.

💕

.

.

Love it.

Going old school to deter cheating.

.

.

Now, that… would be impressive.

As well as terrifying.

.

.

If the average male height in America is 5’9… and you multiply that by a barnacle equivalent of 8? You get an almost 46 foot long human member.

See?

Terrifying.

.

.

In ancient Fiji, it was crustacean shells. Can you imagine what kind of leftover food islands we’re building now?

🤢

.

.

If it’s on my daily breakfast banana? That bowl of oatmeal just got a lot more interesting…

🤣

Let’s play.

Because it’s Friday and that’s what we do here.

.

.

Okay, I’ll date myself.

.

.

Anyone else remember Barnabas Collins?

.

.

An obscure short lived British comedy from the mid ‘70’s.

.

.

What can I say? I was obsessed with dinosaurs when I was young. Even as a child I knew it was stupid… but it had Stegosaurs and Triceratops. Claymation et al, I was hooked.

So.

What long defunct television show did you watch way back when ?

Greeting card oddities.

16 Comments

,

Sadly, it’s been a while since we’ve had to send any Mother’s Day cards.

I lost my mom in 2014, the husband lost his a few years later in 2017.

But I fondly remember choosing pretty, heartfelt cards expressing love, thanks and gratitude for selfless maternal sacrifices.

Though by the looks of the recent advertising I’ve seen online?

Things have clearly changed since then.

.

.

Crabs?

If we’re wishing our mothers crabs…

.

.

And cat turds?

Things really have changed.

🤣

Around town funnies.

Every once in a while I check out local Facebook pages… you never know what you’ll find.

.

.

Exciting.. and quite possibly dangerous.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if my husband has something similar in our cellar.

.

.

I didn’t know this was a thing.

But I am hoping that isn’t the (newly painted) mortar round from the previous story.

.

.

Send recommendations, but please be quiet about it. The poop requires silence.

.

.

Did your mother have a button box, drawer or tin? I don’t remember my mother sewing very often when I was a child, but we were never allowed to throw out a button.

Waste not, want not.

This first story isn’t useful, but it definitely made me chortle.

.

.

Yes, you read that correctly.

.

.

I don’t know how I managed to miss Sirocco’s escapades the first time around, but rest assured I won’t allow that to happen again.

I dare you not to laugh.

Science.

It’s a beautiful thing.

🤣

.

.

Not soap. Not shampoo.

Not remote controls or coffee makers.

It’s towels. And apparently people are swiping them at alarming rates.

.

.

It is a stupid song .

With stupid, annoying, nonsensical ear worm lyrics.

It’s Horse With No Name by America.

Long live the ban.

.

.

To what…

Please don’t pee on us?

.

.

Don’t bother, there are plenty of brainless donors in Washington DC right now.

Let the harvest begin.

April Fools! But not…

24 Comments

.

Two things happened yesterday that should have been April Fools Day pranks but weren’t.

First… we had our taxes done. This is always cause for mutual grumbling and groaning because we never see a refund and always pay, pay, pay.

So when the preparer tallied everything up and handed us this?

.

.

We were stunned.

Yes, it cost us $410 to find out, but … refunds! Not one, but two. We almost fell off our chairs.

It was also the first time my husband had to admit that this full time retirement thing might not be so bad.

😉

.

The second thing that I was sure was a prank was this…

.

.

Okay Oreo, ha ha. Funny joke.

But no….

They actually sold this monstrosity.

.

.

For one day only. On April 1st.

.

.

.

Blech!

.

.

A complete abomination and one that is sure to kick my dormant pickle algorithm into high gear.

Sigh.
