I think I'll have a cool one


I can almost feel that frigid air wafting out of the door of delight!
Ah, Summer!  I'm not fond of all the heat and humidity it brings but I am partial to the ice cream that seems to be an integral part of this season.  So, I thought I'd look fondly back this Flashback Friday at a staple in my neighborhood back in the day and

prIde vs hUmbleness


Take note of the prominent "I" 
Sometimes when I get thinking I can't stop myself like today's Thoughtful/Thankful Thursday. Actually this idea popped into my mind a few days ago and I thought (ya, yet again) it would make an interesting topic for a Thursday.

Doggies sing the blues



Hey hey, it's W/E Wednesday and I was inspired to do a post on dogs...again.  If you don't like dogs I'm sorry on a few different levels, but I love them tremendously and on my Wednesday posts they'll be sure to show their fluffy canine faces every now and again.

Simple Sunday-Eeeee





A rock in a tree
how can it be?
My eyes that see
playing tricks on me?
As I stand like a tee
feel green as...a pea?
I hear the buzz of a bee
no wait, one, two, three?
Seeming happy with glee
are these bugs on a spree?
I must suddenly pee
Was it from drinking that tea?
Nope, it's the stingers, oh gee!
Will I ever be free?
Searching, I drop to a knee
Where is that car key?
I find it and flee
am I in the Grand Prix?

Voice small as a flea
I squeak out a "Oui?"
