**sari** , it sounds like your pup is already as big as Nelson will be as an adult. **butters** , are you saying that Lucky Louie was full of crap? :eek: I got off irk about 2:30 today, shopped for groceries and came home. Once the edibles were put away, Nelson and I took our walk to the mailbox and then went to the mobile groomer’s for a toenail trim. Because it was his first time, she comped it. He was soooooo good. \<3 We drove to Sonic for supper. ---

> [@swampbear](#): > > Now that’s just mean! 😛 Mea Culpa, **swampy;** here’s the n’t I didn’t add to the is. No rain, but it is expected tomorrow, so I decided to wait a day to see if Mom Nature will help me save on my water bill. **Sunny,**"_The Incredible Journey"_ is the one movie I am guaranteed to cry at. Be it the new one with the talking animals, the old Disney black and white, or even the book, the ending gets me every time…heck, I’m getting my sad face on now just thinking about it. **Nut,** I’d volunteer to help, but (1) I’m 65 and (2) I live 700 miles away (you’re in Canada IIRC?). Best of luck getting some friends to help. ---

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > What are you using CB and BB caps in? Are they the size of .22 shorts? Usually a revolver of my KKW rifle and yes — basically underpowered versions of shorts although some of the older manufactured ones are physically shorter than a short. On other notes; put in the paperwork to maybe transfer over the the logistics/transportation side of things at Da Jungle. Yep ---- I am considering joining the Dark Side over at the AM ZL side of things. 😉 ---

I have learned that my dog Mauser is a sneaky little guy. This evening I was sitting in my recliner, eating supper from a tray table in front of me. Mauser was over on the couch asleep. I had to go to the bathroom. When I came back I found that the rest of my lasagna was gone and the to go container was licked clean on the floor. He must have been posing, with one eye open, waiting for me to leave the food behind:p ---

> [@Filbert](#): > > Evenin’ all. > > I has hunny. Probably about 15lb of it. Wrestled some off the bees today, and a very nice fellow beekeeper let me use all his gear, and showed me how to use it, to get it all out of the combs and into a bucket. Didn’t get stung, despite a lot of very,very grumpy bees who were not at all amused by this honey thief taking all their stuff (I left enough to see 'em through the winter). > > There any good Mumper honey recipes? > > Other’n that, I am being a little grumpy today though; over the last month or so loads of my friends cheerfully volunteered themselves to help me move. I’m only currently living in one room, so professional movers would be overkill, but there are a few things that I can’t really carry upstairs by myself. I’ve helped several other people move recently; a lot of us are in similar boats, rental accommodation wise. I’ve got the date when I’m getting the keys, yay, so I get in touch with the people who offered help and ask what days they’d be free, so’s I can pick a day to rent a van. > > Turns out, most of the people who cheerfully offered help are actually not going to be in the country for the whole second half of the month, which is precisely when I said I would most likely be moving, and precisely when I do, in fact, have to move. :rolleyes: A teaspoon full of homey make the sugar go down. **swampy** or amyone help a drumkard out jere. ---

Today is mowing day. It’s not supposed to be as hot as yesterday, so yay! It’s also laundry day. And send-punkin-wigs-to-\*\*Butters \*\*day! Beyond that, who knows? It’s overcast, but we’re not to get any rain till tomorrow night and into Moanday. Hope we do. That’s all I’ve got - too early to brain. Happy Saturday! ---

Happy Saturday! I overslept, so why am I here instead of getting ready? Because, just because. As well as it is giving me a chance to pack my travel bag and look up directions. It looks to be a beautiful day by my standards, partly cloudy with a high of 78. Since this is supposed to be a pool party, it is not such a nice day for that. It’s not supposed to rain, so there is that to be thankful for. I wish I could post druken psots **Butters** , but since it is a long drive each way it probably isn’t a good idea. ---

Good mornin’ y’all! Up, caffeinated, brekkied and even purtified so no _YAWN_. ‘Tis 76 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 90 and mostly N.O.S. so looks like the rain will hold off for the big weddin’ doin’s. YAY! I need to haul some trash off for sis this mornin’. She has a trash pick up service but we have excess trash so I’ll throw some bags on the back of twuck and haul 'em to the convenience center just down the road. Excitatement abounds!

Best of luck getting some friends to help. Further’n that- other side of the pond. Definitely far enough away that you’re safe from the pressgang 😉 I’ve mainly been sitting in trying to get rid of stuff today. We have a local buy/sell group on Facebook, so I’m offering free plants I have no space for, and miscellaneous stuff (and trust me, I _really_ have miscellaneous stuff). Can be great, can be a pain in the neck. Bit of both so far. ---

Morning all. Myself and **Mini-Rio** are up, and lounging around waiting on **Mrs. Sario** to get up. Today’s plans are to head couple of towns over to a large community “play-date”. Think several hundred sub-10 year olds all packed into one building. Back up plans are to go to the local Harley shop around noonish for some free BBQ and hang out with my father. Either way, today promises to be loud.
