    Good morning! I just love the kitty who’s pulling a Hermione there with paw in the air. I bet she knows the answer! When I taught elementary school, I had a student bring an apple for me once or twice…so charming and retro of them. :).

    Morning all! …. I’m so agrivated right now! ….. someone in the ‘hood is not abiding by the law and is letting their dog poop on the sidewalk, without picking it up …. 2nd time in a week we’ve found large dog poos on the sidewalk ….. to make it worse, the elementary kids and moms that walk bye twice a day have stepped in it, and I’m sure it makes a mess in their cars! …. ugh!!!! I need one of those signs with the dog on it ‘in the position’ and a circle with line thru it drawn over him ….
    sorry for the rant!

    busy Tuesday ahead, and temp going up to 90 ….. welcome to Fla. in the Spring!

    Oh, AV…..that’s a major pet peeve of mine! There’s nothing worse than scrubbing dog poo out of the tread of your kid’s sneakers because someone didn’t clean up after their dog….gross!

    Ewww AV, that would really get my hackles up too! Good idea on the sign, maybe you can find one online! 😉
    It’s cloudy and cool here again today, actually I think all week, but I like spring to be stretched out like this instead of winter into summer–like you poor AV! Yes, Florida seems like it goes to the 90’s and stays there!

    Good morning – “pulling a Hermione”, hehe! My mom was a teacher. She taught in the same school she went to grade school in until a new school opened to accommodate us baby boomers.
    Oooh, AV, that’s a sore spot for sure. What gall that owner has to ignore the responsibility of cleaning up, it’s so not a big deal. I guess it’s sheer laziness.
    It’s a rainy day here in Jersey. Had four customers today, a bit soggy, but willing to get a bit wet for a hearty meal. Louie didn’t feel like coming out of his spot, so I put his plate in! Actually, if they all stayed in the shelters, they might get room service too!

    Euuuuwww, humans who don’t clean up after their dogs. There was a really tough-looking guy with a pitbull – we were sure that he was a drug dealer, and did have evidence – who would deliberately let his dog “go” in front of our big maple tree, and never clean it up, and called me nasty things when I suggested it. Fortunately that nest of people have flown the coop…

    I agree AV. We have a few folks who walk their dogs in the n’hood but they always clean up. All it takes is one jerk! 😡

    “How can I fit an 8 hr. takeaway” and Hermione are cute. I wasn’t a teacher or much of a student either. The only subjects I liked were history and civics, other than that I was bored.

    Aw Aunt Joan – you are t’e Best!
    Haven’t seen outdoor crew on a daily basis – only if I’m around later in evening – than did see Otto & dk golden stripey kit – nicknamed Kitteh/easy to remember! Had a nice walk li’l bit ago – probably around 60 today/yay! If rain hold off hope to cut my grass/some long spots – still some bare spots due to all my shade…let the fun begin. Since Crockey’s passing won’t be airing either kits out – they like it indoors. Maybe I’ll have or
    make more yard/kp/fun time now! Paw up waves w/wishes to have a pawsome Tootsday…hmm…hey Tux, let’s cuddle for a few – to the lounge chair 😀

    Maths/science were of little use to me. I liked history except Canadian History which was way boring (at least the teacher was.) English was my forte. In fact I spent Grade 10 with a few others in library as we were way above the class level and they’d just eliminated enriched programs to “democratize” things. Stupid bureaucrats. Anyway it was fun self-teaching on whatever subject interested me.
    PG loving the kit in old-fashioned desk – now that would be neat street find, kit too. Box kitty looks like Dorry and curriculum police had me LOL, which I sorely need more than ever.
    Did do tad of retail therapy at Winners (think TJMaxx) even found area rug for $20! Helps for at least 15 mins which is better than nothing.:-?
    And friend/Hazel coming over and she has a way of helping me chill.
    Re poop scoop (or not.) We had situation in bldg where condo owner left dog poop in the elevator. Ewwww!!!! After confabs among the rest of tenants (we sorta knew the culprit) and official postings throughout the place it stopped. On street, esp on grassy paths where street finds are to be found I have to be cautious lest I step in poop. 😮 Why can’t peeps just use those bags and disposabl;e gloves and deal? *Gingerly steps off soapbox that we were all sharing*

    Yeah, but for last one I’d need a dog hehehe!
    I try to be a conscientious kit slave. In fact when I welcomed new n’bor from down the hall who is owned by orangie tabster Oliver (yet to make an apurrance) I told him that when he does clean-up of entire litter box (heavy) to take bag down to main garbage area in garage as opposed to tossing it down chute in hallway. Makes for way happier maintenance man as heavy bag explodes – as I was informed – my bad and now I know better. 😳
