This and that

I’m going to a bridal shower today.  My cousin’s daughter is getting married next month; it’s a destination wedding and I won’t be able to attend, but I am looking forward to the shower.  I don’t get to see my cousins very often.    One week until Passover. The wine is purchased.   Most of the non perishables are purchased.  Yes, there was the usual craziness finding everything we want.  We will shop some more during the week.  I am looking forward to the holiday. Weather has been miserable, so I haven’t been able to walk. I’ve been working out to YouTube videos. I really like Leslie Sansone’s fitness walking videos.  I’ve been using her videos for years, I feel like she’s an old friend.  I’ve finally finished bingeing on Mr.Ballen’s old YouTubes and podcasts. Waiting with bated breath for each new episode. I’m loving the strange, dark and mysterious… I set up the bird feeder in the back yard, but I haven’t seen any birds feasting…maybe ...

Saturday 9

  Heart Like a Truck Welcome to  Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme! Saturday 9: Heart Like a Truck (2022)     Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it  here .   1) In this week's song, Lainey Wilson longs to hit the open road. What do you yearn for this morning?   Summer weather 2) She says her heart runs on dreams and gasoline. What fuels you? Purrs and meows…I am relishing my current role as cat mom. Shadow and Duchess are my babies. 3) Lainey sings that her heart has been "drug through the mud." The correct past tense of "drag" is "d...

 What demon sits at the top of the stairs? The Shadow knows …    Comfy on the couch     So I was sitting in. the living room when I heard Duchess growl.  I looked up, and Duchess was on the couch.  Shadow was sitting on the coffee table, with her back to Duchess … clearly taunting Duchess while pretending to be innocent … Truly a sibling relationship. Any parent would recognize it.  Just look at Duchess’s face … that’s a “ mom, she’s bothering me again” face. That’s a “I can’t believe I have to deal with this again” face. And yes, I hear my “mom” voice when I’m talking to the cats. And look what I brought home from the supermarket  And that tail

And even more ramblings

 Cory Booker must have watched a lot of Frank Capra movies … Go Cory! I’m still upset about the cat sanctuary fire.  I’d love to take a foster, but I can’t.  So I sent a donation.  They’re going to relocate the surviving cats to a farm upstate.  In fact, that was the plan even before the fire.  So sad … Another walk, more blooms … The forsythia are lovely, aren’t they?  My father loved forsythia.  He planted forsythia at the house we lived in when I was very little.  He also planted a pussy willow, and some hyacinths and tulips.  We moved out of that house when I was 8… our second house had a lot of trees, including dogwoods…we planted rhododendrons and azaleas and hydrangeas, but no forsythia…but the family next door planted forsythia, so we got to see the yellow blossoms. We’re going wine shopping today.  Wine is an important part of the Passover Seder, we are expected to drink four cups of wine during the course of the service. ...
