    Today is all about attitude…. a positive (or pawsitive) attitude. May your day be spectacular.





    Grumpy Cat “understands” KJ! :mrgreen:

    In bad times, look for the good. Keep a positive attitude and look for the good in everything. It’s there. Always.

    Well, I made stuffed shells for dinner – they were awesome! Hubby and I completely decimated an 8×8 dish of them! So. Much. Cheese. Yum!

    I completely get it JJ. When I have pasta (or whatever) it’s as accessory to cheese. As in drowned in cheese! 😉

    Stuffed shells is easy JJ. No recipe required here. I make lasagna…or rather did. Grandma cooked a lot of Italian. Born and raised in Manhattan and my guess is neighbors were good to this large poor Jewish family. I can modify almost anything. Quiche is basic too. I once made a souffle. It came out perfect on first try. Needless to say I was proud of meself.
    Attitude. That pictures been beside my bed for 13 yrs. Letters to the man outside who was in Russia? For less time. He needs to get some sort of attitude and walk. Attitude is everything and with what he knows about this country??? Um…Yikes.

    Good morning! Cute pics today….love the rainbow wall of happiness and MS’s first pic…the look on that cat’s face….lol.

    Haven’t been able to pop in quite as much in the past week….had a busy but fun weekend. Got together with friends to watch football on Saturday, then drove to Gainesville for a reunion of college friends on Sunday.

    Once again, tons of rain is expected starting tonight, so trying to work out son’s school work schedule this morning so he can mow the grass before the rain arrives. Then I’ll be off to clean my Tuesday house. Have a good day!

    I love that cats fancy themselves as big cats.
    Sounds like a fun weekend, ECB. Reuniting with good friends is so good for the soul.
    The JJ crew left a chipmunk today. Oddly enough, it was placed at the end of a wand toy. As if to say, “put this on the string instead of the ribbon!” Yeah, that’s not going to happen.

    Bahahahaa! That goat pic made me snort! Of course the fart pic made me laugh, as I think I may have a junior high level of humor when it comes to those sorts of ‘things’! It is what it is!
    ECB, sounds like a fun weekend being around college friends, or maybe kind of scary too… 😛
    Beautiful day here, with a cold front coming in bringing rain tomorrow maybe, they don’t hit it on the head very often as it ends up being hit or miss. But having the windows open has been a treat, for me and the cats, and sitting out on the patio is good for the soul. My hummingbirds are still around, a few that is, I think most have left for the southern regions of the world. I miss them so much when they leave. 😥

    JK, that note to self works for me. Tks!
    Well, the whiskered cat tights that I got to point of yearning for are not to be. 😥 The size range for smallest size would be way too big and not work. There are these tights (quite expensive) and actually saw a woman wearing them. Prob is that one has to wear way short skirt which would be way above my modesty limit, ergo no one but Dorry and me would know that I’m wearing them as kit part would remain unseen. Oh well! *Sigh* So not a biggie.

    Thanks for reminding me JK that I’m a beautiful badass!! I chose to think that, whether anyone else does or not–but of course what anyone else thinks is irrelevant…right KJ??!! 😆 And you are right, some of it WAS horrible, but I’m on the other side now, and know I can survive. The power of positive thinking…..

    Love the pictures esp. Grumpy and the fart one. 😀



    It’s a brisk 55f/12c today. I’m loving it but kits probably wonder who turned off the sun. CenturyLink is scheduled to be here and upgrade my internet speed from 20 Mbps to 40 Mbps. They’re advertising the higher speed for the amount I’m already paying so I told I should have the same speed.

    As KJ said, I could easily eat a whole tray of cheese with pasta on the side. 😉 Glad you had a good weekend, ECB.
    “Yea meowmy, put teh chipmunk on teh strin, Srsly . iz moar fun.”

    Hey Yuri, did you figure out how to upload pictures? Most of us have an free account with Photobucket.com. You can upload pics and then put in your comments.

    I’m off to do something while waiting for the tech. I hate waiting for someone to show up.


    Have a happy~

    Good morning all.
    It’s an overcast day and we have had several showers already this morning. HRH Shadz decided to stay in bed until now and is out on the lawn grazing like a sheep.
    ECB, glad you had a great week. As soon as I saw that cat pic I knew it perfectly demonstrated how I felt at not being able to find a crossover pic. Wonderful expression.
    JJ, stuffed shells? Sounds interesting, I must investigate recipes although I seldom eat pasta now.
    KZ, nice to see you let the ‘junior high’ child in you out for a laugh. Yup, it is what it is and I am sure it is good for the soul to be able to act like a youngster at times. Oh no! it’s that time again when the hummers leave home. 😥 They will return again next Spring.
    JK, I like that grateful note to self. Love “behind every successful woman” too.
    KJ, noooooooooooooooooo! No cat tights for you? OMG ! those look awesome but the wearer would need legs from here to tomorrow to pull them off. Time to start looking elsewhere for some other style in your size. Your wardrobe is not complete until you have at least one pair of cat tights.
    PG, optimist kitty pic is superb. I too hate waiting for someone to show up. I am waiting for a courier with an auction I won. Last time he called I was still asleep and I turned up at the door with hair on end, looking bug eyed and in my bathrobe. Ugh ! Not the way to answer the door but if he will knock before 7am. I have been getting up early all this week and I just know he will arrive the day I accidentally sleep in. 🙄 🙁
    Had a lovely end to yesterday, daughter Meegz rang and said those magic words ‘hot pools’. Ahhhhhhh, we relaxed in a private pool with open roof in the dark except for a tealight and the moon shining on us while the bubbles eased our weary bodies. Bliss

    Indeed MS, I must set about srsly researching kit tights. I could rock tights in pic, proportionally I have very long legs (at least according to a masseuse who also studied kinesiology) but with not one single purrson to note my look once I put skirt on except the denizens in the gym locker room, well for the price not worth it. And Dorry could care less, or if he cares, he hasn’t told me. 🙂
    Sounds like a lovely time in the hot pool. Alas my super deep bathtub with homemade lavender scented Epsom salts must suffice. Positive thinking!

    Hello all!!! Oh, JJ I would LOVE some of your stuffed shells! My mouth is watering for some now. Have not had any for a long time. Glad you and hubby enjoyed them so much! I am making chicken and dumplings (without the chicken LOL) Carrots, onions, parsnips, & celery cooked in chicken broth and will make dumplings when veggies are done. YUM! I cover the dumplings with dried parsley before putting the lid on. I LOVE dumplings and have been craving them. Found out that I CAN save some to eat the next day. They come out just fine when reheated! HA! Who knew?
    I’m growing celery from the ends I cut off. I’ll see how they come out. The last time I tried was in winter and they didn’t do so well, even though I had them in a south facing window. It’s SO amazing how fast those baby celery stalks start growing! Really a lot of life in that celery end.
    I made pickled eggs with the juice from my canned beets. YUM! I eat one or two each day after I get home from work, as I’m always starving when I get out.
    MS I would love to go in those hot springs. Sounds so lovely with the moonlight and tealight. Glad you and Meegz got to go!
    Wishing everyone a nice evening……

    Nice to see you BB – been a while. Hope that all is going well!
    No luck re cat tights on info superhighway. But thinking pawsitively came up with plan. In my collection of ankle socks (yup, many prs and IMHO they look cool with a sorta 50’s vibe w/skirts) I discovered cat pattern pr mid calf length so works with skirts. They’re fine enough so that when paired with tights they segue quite nicely and look to be part of pattern as per pic. Plan to try this when Fall truly kicks in (still quite warm here) but seems to work! And nary a cent spent!

    PS Wood footstool was Sunday street find!
