1. My preferred method of procrastination is I AM NOT A PROCRASTINATOR

2. I always procrastinate when I am supposed to see #1

My motto is don't put off til tomorrow what you can do today. 

3. My goal of cutting back on how much coffee I drink in the morning is going really well. 

4. If I opened a book shop, I would name it Great Adventures

at your fingertips.

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday #170

  Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy 

at Two Spoiled Cats

 

Here is our challenge for today

It was a trip of a life time

He had so many tales to tell

Little did he know,

 he was coming home with a tail.

*******************

True story:

During the last five years of working, my office was in Partners III
a new building on Centennial Campus.
For the first few months, the gazillion fire alarms went off daily...for no reason. There were some chemisty labs on the 3rd floor, so we always took the alarms very seriously.
One day I was in the loo....one of the alarms was located right above the loo door. I quickly exited the loo, looking much like the man above, but not that long.  There were very FEW female students. Thankfully the wife of a graduate student, quickly came up behind telling me I had a short tail of tp.  She pulled it off for me. . Later, she told me none of the male students, in my section wanted to tell me.
 I told them I was old enough to be their MOTHER.  I asked would you tell you mother, they said yes.  I said from now on treat me like you Mother!!

Happy Wednesday and Interntational Box day Flashback

Flashback on some of Madi's International Box Day pictures.

My name is Madi, I am a PROUD box-a-holic!!

I have never ever no never met a box I

didn't love!! I became addicted to boxes at 2 months old

when I came to live with the peeps. Lo and be hold I discovered

they had a cold box full of treats and delicious meats .

From that day I made it my mission to inspect each

box in the house.

Back off Mom finders keepers!!

This box is one of my new favorite boxes it has a foam cushion in it and I fit

purrfectly.  It is one of Dad's train car  boxes.

  

It also shows of my lovely charcoal gray shinny furs.

I leap for joy anytime I see a BOX

Sometimes they have odd things in them but I am a Fearless Feline

Dad made this box for me...he added the window so I could see

the flashy box coming.

Happy Tuesday around Town

Recently we took a ride over to Cameron Village Shopping center.  We knew there were lots of new shops and cafes.

Most days before I retired (2011) I had lunch at one of their cafes.  It is within walking distance from NC State University. I can not tell you how very very happy I was to see this beautiful mural.  It was a block long.

Now study the hummingbird carefully.  It appears he is standing but the rest of the story is there was a diamond shaped orange road work sign smack in the middle of the sidewalk.  I had no idea when I snapped the photo from this angle it would

look like a stand for the hummingbird.

My Walking Stats 

June 16, 2024

35 minutes

3,892 steps

1.2 miles

Start temp @7:30am,68 degrees

Ending temp @8:05am, 71 degrees

Me, myself and my mind’s eye captured another snuggle session with Kokee, my BFF German Shepherd.  (I asked mom, Karen, to spell it for me). Once again Kokee, walked right up to me…gave my hand a several licks then offered her head for a rub.  They were at the end of a 2 mile walk and thirsty. It was a short, but sweet meet greet. EMW at 68 degrees the dewpoint is also about 68%, is toasty... I can't imagine how hot it is with furs!! 

I knew Kokee was named after a State park in Hawaii

HERE

but didn't know how to spell it.
