Good 36º morning. 84º again yesterday. Daytime
temps supposed to cool off by the weekend. Ice on the barn roof and low
fog...
Caught Ya! The Bruise attempting to pee in Dude's
favorite tree stump sawdust! Oh yes, the look of guilt!!! LOL.
I got the new Sgt. Grit catalog, USMC stuff, and saw
this bumper sticker...I'm going to get one!!!
People do love to ride your bumper up here! This might
give them the idea not to!!! ...or maybe they're too stupid to
understand!
....from Mike C..."did I read that sign
right?"
"TOILET IS OUT OF ORDER. PLEASE USE
FLOOR BELOW."

dinner... had one last night! Ahhh... the old 'history repeating itself' !!

... I
wonder if Fran was here today, would he (yes, a "he"!) 'Twitter'? Just think, a
Twitter from Zwitter! Just being silly.
Yesterday Martin was here .. I will take some pictures of all he
did. He had his chain saw out and was cutting away at bushes, berry bushes, and
trees lining the creek back of the house. He made a HUGE pile. He also trimmed
up some rose bushes in the front yard! What a hard worker~ He'll be back
Saturday (probably) and load up all the debris and put them in a burn pile. Of
course he had his two little Chihuahuas ... one is half mini-doxi.
That one is friendly and lets me pet her but the other just barks
and barks....especially at Dude!
She did lick my finger, while taking a
breath from barking! But, they are cute!!!
Breakfast was the last of the chicken soup.... (hole in center is
for quicker heating in the microwave!)
Dude and I cleaned out a bunch of stuff and took it to the trash by
the road... sadly I put on my big girl panties and tossed out my 39 year old
rice cooker... the one that sparked the plug in the kitchen. Made me sad. Jerry
and I bought it in Little Tokyo in LA in 1974 and made LOTS of rice in that
little thing! Sticky rice for sushi, his favorite!
Dude has his giant licker out because he ran all the way from the
house to the road. (3/10ths mile each way) He LOVES to run! I make him sit in
the cart down there because I don't want him getting nosey with cars zipping at
45+ mph down the road!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Thursday. Ciao.

October 24th
National Bologna Day
As I'm sure I have told you, Jerry used to get a chub (horse cock)
of boloney and smoke it. OMG that made the BEST sandwiches!!!!
Had some friends (use that term loosely) who used to show up at
dinner all the time. She didn't cook! He didn't either! They LOVED to eat, but
neither would put forth the effort. All she knew how to cook was fried boloney!
UGH.
How about "Bologna Italy" ??? Wouldn't it be fun to visit
there....
