Thursday Thinking…

I couldn’t do it… I just couldn’t!

Don’t judge…

It isn’t my fault…

They’re far too soft and fluffy…

And I accidentally got high on all the puppy breath…

Before I knew what happened…

They both picked me…

SoI say, if ya can’t beat em, join em! 

Besides, the lobby has plenty of room, and you all can help with walks and weekend play dates, right!?!?

I just knew you’d agree…

Drum roll, please…

(She taps her Magic Microphone several times for a sound check)

Without further ado, I would like to announce the official welcome of Journey With Me’s first official furry greeters,

The wild and sassy one… (little big pants) Miss Bailey,

And her brother Gabriel (the quiet one), our furry kibble connessuer…

This should keep me busy for a good bit…

We shall see, we shall see!

Survey Says…

Out of a million kids who answered, what are their top 5 grocery items?

Well, according to the poll,

After we remove two sugars and the choolate cookis, we are left with our top 5 answers.

I think sugar wins out… what do you think? 

Here, have a cookie while you think about it…

Wednesday Words…

Don’t forget to have your picture taken with Eustace… he’s down in the lobby right now, in case you hadn’t already noticed him as you came in this morning. Poor camel, bless his heart, he’ll need the entire month of January to work off the after-effects of that candy cane infusion.

Ode To My Better Half…

We’ve been married for nearly 19 years and he still impresses me, and on a regular basis at that!

Tuesday Tinkering…

You know how I’ve been going on about puppies? Well, it suddenly occurred to me that even if I can’t have an actual puppy at the moment, what I can do is create a virtual one… why not, right?!

No need to clean up poo doo, no complaints from the neighbors, and no weighty expenses for all its needs!

So, I thought you might join me in the creation of our lobby’s first furry version of a greeter… you know, like Walmart but better!

Anyways, the first thing one should consider is the look of said greeter. I know that I want a miniature Dachshund of the silky variety…

And yes… it should be oh so fluffy! I would love the color to be that of the creamy vanilla kind, beings that I love coffee and all.

Ok… perfect!

Honestly, I wouldn’t even mind if there were some accent colors…

That’s awful cute, don’t ya think?

Now comes the hard part! Remember how I said that if I were to have a boy, his name could be Gabriel, and if it were a girl, I could call her Bailey? This is the part where we have to choose a boy or a girl…. ughghghghghgh… so hard!

I’m sort of stuck here, folks! I would honestly love to hear your opinions on our choice here, so I can’t move forward until that has been determined.

I will say that if it is a girl, she will have her own little blog entries’ called Bailey’s Daily (puppy fashion critic)…

And if we were to choose a boy, then he would have his little blurbs called Gabe’s Flav’s (puppy food critic)…

Until we make a final decision, I shall be spending some play time with them both… just to be fair.

Seriously, just to be fair…

I’m doing this for you, not me…

The things I’m willing to do for this community… I sure hope everyone knows how much I’m willing do… the sacrifice… the agony of effort… sheesh!

No …

Daily writing prompt
Is your life today what you pictured a year ago?

I can’t speak for anyone else, but I know my life looks nothing like I thought it might!

Turns out, there’s a lot more to sailing this ship than I’d realized…

No one wants to arrive at their destinations with a messy ride. I’m trying to focus on tidying up along the way… and be pleasantly surprised when I reach wherever I’m supposed to be going!

Here, have a cookie…

You Can, But Should Ya?

Daily writing prompt
What skills or lessons have you learned recently?

Ya ya ya… I know… I have puppy on the brain after this last weekend! You’re gonna have to put up with this for a few days, I fear. Sorry, not sorry…

The dog images should hopefully leave the impression with you, of thinking before you act on a thing.

I was watching an episode of Joyce Meyers the other day, and something she said stuck with me, regarding God’s guidance. There are times when we are about to say something, we might hear God whisper, “you don’t need to say that”, and when Joyce went on to talk about whether we listen to him or not, I felt like she was looking right at me through the television screen!

I’ve been studying a great deal about wisdom and thinking before I say things, lately. This chatty wordsmith has a tendency to say too much, or talk at the wrong time, so I’m a work in progress. I hope this satisfies the prompt.

I’m Lazy…

My Chica’s daughter got a puppy, and I’m getting my flurby fix this morning. 

It has been confirmed, ladies and gents… my future fur baby needs to be a silky Dachshund,  preferably a champagne cream color!

If it’s a girl, I could name her Bailey,

and if it’s a boy, I could name him Gabriel…

yup!  I know it’ll be a while yet still, but a girl can dream.

Onions With Layers…

So WordPress wants to know what cities I want to visit, do they?

First of all, there’s an awful lot of cities in the world to choose from, and I would probably answer differently on any given day… and for a slew of different reasons.

Secondly,  I don’t share this kind of information with just anybody… it just feels weird, that’s all.
