How y'all are? Just so y'all know, odds are I wont be around as much as usual for the next few weeks. Here's why:

My number three great-grandchild will be coming home from the hospital today. 'Addy' checked in at six pounds twelve ounces and is ready to dominate family activities for some time to come. For those keeping count, she's g-g kid number three and g-g daughter number two and is the first-born of my own first born's first-born.

Later in June, I'll head up to Lawrence, Kansas for a week of getting back in touch with the two earlier models of my great-grandkids. After days of doing this and that type family stuff, I'll tag-along with them plus their parents on our way to Phoenix. And so now you know why I'll probably be mostly out of pocket for awhile. ;)

Later, Inspirators. they

Hi peeps
A beautiful day here
Not a lot going on today
Slow start to my day .
*Moving yesterday's cookies to the emergency cookie tins behind the counter and filling the cookie jars with the fun cookies :
Ghidorah, Megalon, MechaGodzilla, Godzilla, and Caesar cookies too!
*Giving the adorable mascots fresh water and treats shaped like baseballs*
Tomorrow will be circus themed cookies !

Have a great day everyone!

Sara,

Or how about a coyote?

Today is a special kind of TGIF as in, Thank God It's Finally -Unmask day, at least here in the States.

To celebrate this l-o-n-g anticipated event, I've given the coffee pot a good rinse, filled it with dark roast Louisiana coffee and water from the mighty Kansa River which also supplied the water for the tea kettle. Both have been turned on, so to speak.

Over in that seedy den of depravity in the Red Zone I left a post last night that had some info on Sprite. The bottom line is good news since she claims to be much mo' better.

Coffee's ready. Gonna fill my mug with that ambrosia then fill my free hand with Sarah's cookies. Since the temp is expected to push past 100f again, think I'll sit over at the corner table with the fan turned on.

Later, Inspirators.

hi peeps

Jeff I'll bring sugar cookies tomorrow what shapes would you like ?

Hugs to everyone!

Godzilla cookies for the win.Fkc8eZQQpLAHHU49 I second this motion. As long as they don't breath radioactive fire. Though I suppose that could be helpful if my tea gets cold.

I've already scared coyotes out of our yard once today. They're getting bold. I scared him away by banging pots and pans. Later I am going to hang up blinky lights that are supposed to mimic animal eyes. I am also (no, I'm not making this up) going to pee along the fenceline all this week. If those techniques don't work, I want to buy a life-sized plastic coyote that is supposed to work well - you just set it out in the yard. Talia is less than thrilled by this approach.

I think you are on the right track Verbs, but here is a better (?) idea:

Certainly would be cheaper to empty your own bladder, but if the neighbors notice....don't know.

Baseball! How quickly the mighty fall. Actually should have taken a picture when the Nationals were, very briefly, in first place. And started out playing first game against the Yankees and demolished them. I refused to discuss the last two games. Deep sigh.

It was so nice to have my parents for dinner yesterday. My middle son, his girlfriend, and their adorable pug came to celebrate Mother's day as well. It was a nice treat especially after a few stressful days dealing with some unfortunate new behavior my dad is exhibiting.

I'm feeling a bit discouraged about everything at the moment. Depression is a sneaky thing and I need to be alert to the symptoms. So forgive me if I am not as active.

I hope Monday was kind to everyone. I'll be in the corner enjoying some of Sarah's cookies.

Take care of yourselves, both mentally and physically. Be kind to yourself.

Cheers!

And...Talia and I (and friend) just returned from our second Covid shots! It's feels so freeing! We're all hunkering down for possible side effects now.

I'll have a final coffee. And my ant, named Ant (full name Ant S. Ipation), will have a cookie crumb.

Hope there are no side effects .. giving you a coffee and a cookie crumb to Ant .
And Molly offering you a paw print cookie .

My dental appointment went fine. Yay!


Now where'd that lil monkey get to?

Jeff, you will notice after a while that Molly the Monkey sticks with Sara almost all the time. The only time they are separated is when Sara has to go out and must leave Molly behind. She will stay with me when that happens. :

Happy Birthday, Scott! Getting jabbed in the arm and a takeout from your fave Viet-Thai place sounds as good a way to celebrate as any! I'll add a lemon drizzle cake to Sara's wonderful cookies to celebrate the occasion!

Thanks so much, Gill, Elizabeth and everyone. Mum is now in hospital (thankfully she's had both Covid jabs) with it being 3rd time lucky calling the ambulance out in the middle of the night! She's under investigation and the consultant is calling it a bit of a puzzle as to what is causing the severe pain. Mum will be 90 in a couple of weeks, so you can understand why I'm a bit frazzled. Everyone's kindness and well-wishes mean a lot.

Elizabeth, I'm so sorry to hear about your eye issue, which sounds very unpleasant. I do hope the consultation with the eye surgeon is helpful. Hugs to you!

Just going to relax with an iced tea and some cookies. Cut the grass and did some other yard stuff. Nice weather for it. The breeze is a bit chilly but I was pushing the mower so the sweat I worked up kind of cancelled that out.
