Thursday, November 29, 2018 – Knit One Purl One

I am sorry for such a late post. It took me all day to make this. I was doing the knit one purl one and knitting Peach’s Christmas stocking. Yeah, right! I went to Target.

Thursday, November 22, 2018 – It’s Turkey Time

Be safe this Thanksgiving. You do not want to be the one on the insurance claim who burned downed Sheryl’s She Shed.

Now bow your head and give a Thanksgiving Day pray, “Oh Lord, it has been 16 years since the Aggies …” To be continued.

Oh no my eggs are boiling. I have to go before Sheryl’s She Shed catches on fire. Don’t forget The Egg Bowl is tonight between Mississippi State and Ole Miss. and the Football Snark is tomorrow.

Wednesday, November 21, 2018 – Be Thankful

If you have not chopped off your turkey’s head, plucked the feathers and taken out the guts, then you better get busy. Tomorrow is the Thanksgiving.

I am putting together my Thanksgiving Playlist to play while we have Thanksgiving dinner. Here is what I have so far.

• Over the river and through the woods to Grandmother’s house we go…
• We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessings…
• Yes, it’s all right cause it’s midnight and I got two more bottles of wine…
• Hullabaloo, Caneck, Caneck…

I really like to sing Aggie War Hymn around a table of Aggies. When we do the sway, you get to eat off each other’s plates.

Of the many things for I am thankful, I am thankful that people actually read this daily brain dump. The purpose is to make you laugh or smile. I actually have a PhD and can use three and four syllable words with proper articulation and enunciation. I can conduct statistical and observational research and draw valid conclusions, but people seem to like it better when I dress up like a Christmas tree.

I even have a tribute poem. Thank you Jayne Ann for such a lovely tree tribute from Crazy Cousin Anonymous. Perhaps I shall do a dramatic reading of it at my Thanksgiving.

While we try to live by the Honeyboy Rules of Life every day, on Thanksgiving we are reminded. Here they are:

• Tell at least one person every day that you appreciate them or love them.
• Whatever it is, if you have faith, it will all work out.
• Remember, there is always lots to be thankful for.

I hope your day is filled with love, food, family, friendship, football and all of the things for which we give thanks.

Here is a real Thanksgiving song, Blessed, by the great Martina McBride.

Remember the Origin of your blessings.

Oh Christmas Tree ;Oh DrD’ Thy hoodie lives forever;

Wednesday, November 14, 2018 – Cold, Cats and a Glaring. Cluster Clutter

It is just my luck. The temperature last night was a petunia-freezing 27 degrees in BCS, Texas. That means I am going to need to find something other than pole dancing to make extra money. It’s too cold to dance around a pole with limited fabric on your body.

I sent out a resume for a job as a shepherd but retracted it when I found out it was an outdoor position. I have not heard back because I don’t get out much, but I think I am still being considered for a hermit position.

I was thinking of applying for this job I saw today on a travel site. You get to live on a Greek Island in the Aegean Sea and take care of 55+ cats. I like the living on the island part with a clowder of cats. The fact that cats tend to be nocturnal so sleep is limited is a deal breaker. I also did not apply because over 40,000 others did apply.

Did you know that a group of cats may also be called a glaring, a cluster or a clutter? Those three adjectives seem to describe a group of felines more accurately that a clowder. Especially 55+ furry felines wanting food and affection. Nevertheless, the island part sounded good.

Look! Here is a job I can apply for – Professional Porch Sitter and Cocktail/wine Sipper – also known as Professional Chair Occupier and Cocktail/wine Sipper. Multiple positions available! Who’s with me?

Tuesday, November 6, 2018 – The Mid-term Elections and Please

Today is your opportunity to be a part of history. The 2018 mid-term Congressional and states’ governor races will change history.

Please vote today for The UNITED States of America.

• Please remember there are governments with no elections by the people.
• Please remember there are people who have died for our freedoms and our right to vote without violence.
• Please do not gloat if your candidates are victorious. This only adds to the divisiveness.
• Please refrain from naming and blaming. This political strategy is also divisive.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD!

Make History!

VOTE!

Thursday, November 1, 2018 – Thursday Thoughts

It was a dark and stormy night… Actually it really was, but the ghosts and goblins are gone and it has been a beautiful day.

My day began in sadness. The convenience store that I often frequent to purchase Dilly Dilly supplies sold a two-million dollar lottery ticket. The store did not sell it to me. At least I have beer I can cry in.

Moving on to more pleasing topics. I heard on the radio this morning that for the holidays, a company sells pumpkin spice underwear. It seems that the product is used for those moments of bladder leakages. When one sneezes, coughs, laughs and/or sometimes moves, the moisture will trigger the underwear and give off a pleasant, pumpkin spice scent. Now who doesn’t look forward to that?

I hope it comes in more holiday fragrances. Just think! As you sit down with family for Thanksgiving this month, not only will the turkey smell good, so will all of those around the table who are wearing their turkey scented underwear.

I so hope I get some for Christmas. I hope there is a Christmas fragrance – Pine, fir, cookies, grandma’s over powering perfume from 1958 – might all make a good holiday undy fragrances.

If you do not believe me about the fragrances and undies, you Google “pumpkin spice, underwear, fragrances” and see what pops up in your browser.

The Football Snark arrives tomorrow. “Tiger, tiger, burning bright…”

Wednesday, October 31, 2018 – Happy Halloween!

Here’s a selfie of me in my Halloween costume. I am The Invisible Man. (Woman).

Tuesday, October 30, 2018 – Eat Pray Vote!

For your thought provoking Tuesday, here is an interesting quote from the novel Dune by Frank Herbert.

“When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movement becomes headlong – faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thought of obstacles and forget that a precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rash until it’s too late.”

EAT PRAY VOTE!

Thursday, October 25, 2018 – Red, White and Blue

Today I am only posting a couple of pretty pictures from last Sunday’s visit to the George H.W. Bush Museum. Enjoy.
