Morning, y'all. Yes, it's another Monday but as the football coaches all shout, "When the going gets tough, the tough look forward to Tuesday.
While you're waiting for that blessed midnight hour, take a look at the 'Love & Affection Challenge' Gypsey has gotten going. No deadline, no prizes, nothing to do but write something between 140 and 1400 words in a story that mentions something along the lines of: love, affection, chocolate, flowers and post it for the throng of Spacers eager to heap praise on your poetry or prose.
Gypsey has posted a list of those who have taken on the challenge on the 'Prompts and Challenges' forum.
warning: my entry 'Buck's Bucks isn't very good but at under 700 words, at least it ain't that long.
Coffee's on. (slurp) Not that bad if I do say so myself. Cookie, cookie, where are dem cookies? ;)
Tea ... must ... have ... tea. No challenge entry from the ape yet but I may give it a shot this week. I have kind of given up on some other writing projects for other sites so maybe I can focus on it.
Sonja did not have a cat. So why was this one making itself at home in her house?

The metal singer made Brenda an interesting offer, but was her interest in the music ... or him?

How's life in the rest of the world. We are looking at February going out like a lion here. No word on March's arrival though.
It's been lovely the last few days, though, at least by the dubious standards of February in Southwestern Ontario.
Rump, I started yours but got drawn away. Will hopefully get to it today. Mine ended up kind of ... meh. So back to the drawing board.

Hunkering down as a winter storm approaches. Not sure how bad it will get, but it should be in force by evening rush hour here so evening commute may not be much fun. May just crash by the Inspirations fireplace with a tea.
Kettle is on for tea and hot chocolate, coffee is brewing, and mini marshmallows are restocked.

For outstanding performance of duty: Vic the Ever-Vigilant gets a big dog biscuit. ;)
Scoot over, Scott, and stop hogging the choice spot in front of the fireplace. (rubs Vic's ears) Wish I'd been there to hear our Victor sound the alarm.
* pulls another couch over to fireplace *
There, room for both.

Good morning. Speaking of aches and pains, I shoveled last evening and again before going to work this morning. IOW, winter is back in Southwestern Ontario. Let's see how long it lasts this time.
Kettle is on for tea and ... oooo, pecan divines.

Such a diversity of cookies, it's getting hard to choose. Butterscotch marshmallow bar sounds good, though.
We survived the return of winter (actually, the storm didn't hit my city that hard, really). Now the weekend looms. No real big plans. Maybe start work on my taxes.
Kettle's on, coffee's brewing. I'm drinking Earl Grey.

A bit chilly for walking here but I know dogs don't seem to see things the same way we do. My old beagle Bowser (RIP) used to go rooting in snowbanks with his snout in weather that was turning my extremities blue.

It's Leap Year Day (Feb. 29th) Spacers with a long-term memory might recall the days of 'Lil Abner and Sadie Hawkins Day'. If you are not among that crowd, congratulations and pull up an image of two of Daisy Mae and moonbeam McSween to learn what you missed, sorta.
Coffee's on and it ain't bad. Somebody left a half empty box of doughnut holes on the counter. jThe two or three I tried seemed okay, I think.
Y'all have a good day the Inspirations way. ;)
Shovelled, shopped, got some of my taxes done. Still missing some slips but the deadline to send them was yesterday so some may still be en route.
I think I shall have a pumpkin cookies with my green tea.
