I’ve become a perfectionist in procrastination! I’ve really got it down to an art. I’ve got lists of what to get done, but at the end of the day, maybe one gets done, However, I’ve come to the conclusion that, If no one gets harmed by my procrastinations, then it’s good.
I decided to clean the carpets, yep, on a cold wet day!
Rescue Dogs Roll the Dice...
I really don’t know if old dogs can be taught new tricks. A more pertinent question is whether a couple of canines can--or choose to--remember old tricks.
Early on, they understood the “do-you-want-to-go” question warrants their affirmative response. The query usually means trips to the store, bank or post office.
Low-Carb Brown Bag Lunch Meal Plan
Most of my friends know I used to do a lot of menu planning. I don’t very much of that anymore but this is a Low-Carb Meal Plan I created a couple of years. I thought this would be a prime time to share it since it is less than half way between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Thank you to the Punchers for an exciting football season. It was a hard loss Friday night. But, the class and sportsmanship shown by our Punchers made them stand out.
Christmas is sneaking up on us. The Art United Methodist Church will have their Christmas Party on Wednesday, December 7th at 6 pm at the home of Stephen and Joyce Mutschink.
All aboard!
Last month before 2017.
All hands on deck.
Stow your carry-on under the seat.
Put your dreams in the overhead bin.
Hang on to your hats.
Hold tight the reins.
We’re off and running.
December is our final stop.
Destination: the New Year.
And December is here.
With it comes turquoise.
And narcissus.
The official birthstone.
And flower.
So away we go
Down the slippery slope into Winter.
The descent into shorter days.
The temperatures dropping.
Along with the leaves.
Nothing can stop ...
This Is Really Important.... Squirrel!!!!!
I love the movie, "Up." Besides being a beautifully done animation film, it has some of the funniest moments I've seen in a movie in a while.
The one that sticks with me currently involves the "talking" dogs that our heroes find on top of the plateau.

Dicey math
Although the presidential election has been over for more than a month, there are still people whining about it. Honestly, I can sympathize with a lot of the complainers. People are upset that Trump won the election for various reasons. Some are angry because of the things he’s said about women in the past.
It’s been said, “Growing old isn’t for sissies!” So, in the spirit of growing old, here is a little ditty that I saw on Facebook.
“ Oh, the weather out side is frightful, and our joints are not delightful, since it’s got so dang cold, We feel old, We feel old, WE FEEL OLD!”
Too, we use to say, “Right knee, Left knee.
Words: Helpful or Hurtful?...
Not so long ago, lots of folks--the ones still writing and reading longhand--gave little thought to what the future might hold for the English language. Many were more worried about dialects that will disappear when death claims the last handful of aging tribal users.
With social media and a culture given to haste 24/7, both verbal and written communications are being reduced to abbreviations and symbols.
