BBP again, 'they are well-fed neighbor cats"---------Well, they may be well fed but ain't been gettin' any cookies , Ya' see, there's a difference there. Kinda' like "existin' as compared to "livin"<G>
"I've heard'a them sites where you locate compatible folks. LOL Don't think I want one bad enuff ta bother!! Tain't worth the effort. They'd just holler'n beg fur cookies and pie. Yeah...I figger Charlann kin tell us all about whut ta do "after"...she clearly knows her canoodlin'!! -----------------------------------------------Them sites been known to cause lots a' problems all right but if you never "mentioned" cookies they might not be askin' for 'em. Charlann says it's been a while, but some things stick in yer' mem'ry. -------" "an' you KNOW I hadda send ya them cookies just to, once again...prove you were WRONG about me!! LOL 'course, I also KNEW you KNEW I would...so I did it anyway! I hate bein' predictable." ----Yep, you knew that I knew, and I knew that you knew so though neither of us was new, we both knew, (or somethin' <G>) Ah, one more Bobbelina and I can close the thread down.------------------Whatta' ya' mean "wrong before"? <G> "You are a shameless beggar'----Shame??, Whar's a little shame compared to ummmmmmmm cookies? Anyway, KK ain't so poor. Why she's almost over her trip to the dentist and ain't got another one till next month There. thread is closed. No more posts. I "did" get back on ATT but aol is still messed up Wy

Mornin' Mudgie...
I might just hafta do a Nashville Cat song. One'a my very good friends actually owns the trademark/copyright to that. She got lotsa money from the Nashville Kats football team when they wanted to use it. I could mebbe do a theme song for her. But I kinda like the idea of seeing Nashville through the eyes of an alley cat. Might just hafta work on that.
Hugs, Bobbie

Hey Mudgie, Well, as fur the livin' vs existin' thing...I sure nuff ain't gonna agree with ya, cause I live purty durn good an' I don't need cookies OR pie.  But those durn cats might be onto somethin'!! Last night I shut the window though!! LOL This mornin' there were cat paw marks all over the outside of the glass.  Wonder if'n someone bumped his/her head on the glass thinkin' the window was open. LOL I think they must'a been tryin' to git that durn window open again. Well, I ain't too worried about Ms Charlann. She's younger and her mem'ry hasn't quite faded just yet. Me, I'm so ancient, I have totally forgotten whut ta do before, durin' AND after!!  My mem'ry card is not only full, I think it just discards most stuff these days. 'Course after goin' out ta lunch today with my adorable li'l cop buddy (who is VERY happily married) I think it was frantically scannin', tryin' ta 'member somethin'!!  Must be some shards o' mem'ry left in thar somewheres!! Least he didn't beg for my cookies...or anything else fer that matter. LOL Durn!! Whew knew??? LOL Well, I knew yew were wrong. Yew knew yew were wrong. I was merely ensurin' that yew couldn't avoid admittin' it!! So there!!  (purring contentedly like a cat with a bowl 'a cream!) Hugs, Bobbie

Hey Charlann,
You can always write one'a those songs about how hard it is to wait for something you really want...like Christmas, bein' with your lover again...etc. When I was little, my dad used to tease me all the time about being a bit impatient...he'd say..."you can hardly wait fast enough". Might be a song in that.
Hugs, Bobbie

Maybe I will do that! i've written several about our time together, but not one where I'm counting down the days yet. I'll have to think about that one for a bit. I'm missing him pretty bad right now, so it might not be very hard to do!

Ok, there's your hook..>"countin' down the days"...even has a nice bit of alliteration in there. I'd recommend you make it a story song though and it might even have a Christmassy theme to it. That way, it could be commercial...goodness knows we need some more new holiday songs.

I'll get to the E in a minute) Wow!!!, I say WOW!!!I thought last night I ought to put these UMMMM cookies in the fridges, I get this tupperware container---=-well, quite a few cookies there. Don't think it's big enough---get a bigger one---- put cookies in----nope, ain't gonna' hold 'em, (wanta keep 'em all together ya' see so they don't get lonesome,) Well, maybe I'd better check and see there ain't any clear down at the bottom----There's more there than in the whole rest a' the box!!!---Gonna' take somethin' BIG!!---So I scrounge around till I find this "really big" plastic bowl. Well,. it holds 'em but it's heaping---that'll work----------Do you get that carried away with ,uh, "everything you do? <G>. Must have one heckuva' cookie sheet. However long I said I'd love you back a ways, it'll be longer Nashville Cat---Yep, there's a good song there all right. I--we wrote one called Tin Pan Alley Cat that came out pretty good. I don't 'member if that's on KK and my first album of childrens songs or not. -------- I live purty durn good an' I don't need cookies OR pie--------- Well, it's all in the point a' view I guess, but glad you're livin' , uh, good<G> See, them there cats know what's good. " I have totally forgotten whut ta do before, durin' AND after!! ---Yeah, right "adorable lil' cop buddy who is VERY happily married---------Well, remember to restrain yerself now--don't be breakin' up no homes 'ner nothin' ----ain't they got no adorable little SINGLE cops? 'yew couldn't avoid admittin' it!!---admit what?---Well even if I "did" inadvertently admit somethin'. ain't nothin' much permanent---everything's subject to change--<G> I got stuff ta' do but I'll be back after a bit ta' close this thread down "permantently" Wy

LOL well, Mudgie, I am glad you didn't toss out that box before you located the "rest" of your treasure. Only sent so many 'cause I figgered what with you bein' so old an' all, you'd prolly ferget where you got'em before you got halfway through each cookie (plus with all the droolin' an' slurpin' an' all) I figgered if I sent enough...you'd eventually get through at least ONE sample that'd prove my talents (leastways as fur as cookie-bakin' goes that is!)  Didn't wanna leave NO room fur doubt!! There weren't THAT many cookies. LOL Mebbe only 4-5 dozen. Just don't be makin' yerself sick eatin' too many at once...but I bet they go purty good with all that coffee yer havin' ta drink these days. You could mebbe even freeze some of 'em to enjoy later when nobuddy is sending you more cookies!! I'll hafta 'member ta find my tupperware pie keeper when I bake the pies for Thanksgiving dinner! Don't wanna be donatin' THEM to the neighborhood kitties!! LOL Dunno if'n there's any adorable li'l single cops...prolly are, but since I ain't in the market fur none'a that, it's safer ta spend time with a married "friend" cause we both know that's ALL it'll ever be. He gets a good sounding board...an' I git...um, well, I git ta look an' drool!!  An' 'fore ya start wonderin'...HE doesn't git no cookies ner pie!! Hugs, Bobbie

You are more than welcome Charlann...but you will note, of course, that I was merely using your own words. Hooks are where you find 'em!! Will be looking forward to hearing what you come up with for that hook!!
Big hooky hugs...or is that big cookie hugs? Hmmmm Nah..I'll hafta save those for the cookie monster among us. Bobbie

PS...Mudgie...it took several batches to cook all of them...plus it was the first time I'd used my new oven and THAT took some real figgerin!! LOL Tried to use the timer on it and clearly, I did not have that figgered out right cause then my oven went off before the first batch of cookies were done and wouldn't come on again. Took me many more hours than I'd planned on just tryin' ta get that oven to cooperate. Must be a male oven!!  Easy ta get 'em heated up the first time but then once they think they're done...there ain't no heatin' back up again 'til they're good an' ready!! Hmmmm must be a song in that!!  Mebbe once I figger my oven out, I'll figger men out too....naaahh! That'll never happen!! Big cookie hugs...or big crumby hugs, Bobbie

Hey Bobbelina, Ain't so old my mem'ry for "cookies" is affected. Matterafact' my mem'ry fer' a "Lotta' things is still quite good. (My "mem'ry , that is) -------------------------- QUOTE---"what with you bein' so old an' all, you'd prolly ferget where you got'em before you got halfway through each cookie (plus with all the droolin' an' slurpin' an' all) I figgered if I sent enough...you'd eventually get through at least ONE sample that'd prove my talents (leastways as fur as cookie-bakin' goes that is!)

You could mebbe even freeze some of 'em to enjoy later when nobuddy is sending you more cookies!! -------------- Ahaa!!! besides being a beautiful person and a top-a'-the-line cookie maker, you're also psychic------I was just thinkin' taday',I oughta' freeze about half a' these, but not sure how they'd freeze. Sure didn't wanta' risk "ruinin' any so I couldn't decide, as a test whether, to risk two or maybe three so I'd compromised on 2 1/2, but, being as you say they'll freeze OK, and obviously knowing about "cookies" anyway, (may know about other stuff too, but just "holdin' out". Prolly a woman of many......talents) why then I'll go ahead and freeze about half of them. Nunmber 2 son came by after work today and approved of them. Number one son came by "last" night after work and did likewise. (I don't go to work anymore. It's such a nusciance) Quote---------.an' I git...um, well, I git ta look an' drool!!

" HE doesn't get no cookies ner pie--------Well, he "MIGHT get some if he'd ask, uh,---cookies er pie "Ask and ye shall receive" ------------ Well, don't think I'll hafta' comment on this exchange between Bobbelina and Charlann unless my name's been taken in vain--------Hey you two feisty females---this ain't no "community bulletin board" It's a private thread. Ya' know, at hunting season, some farmers post their land--No Hunting or No Trespassing, well when i get to the end a' this thread, I'm gonna' post this thread. Wy

Now dang it Charlann, I think I woulda' slid off the page today except for you ,'cause I don't think Bobbelina's gonna' make it ta'day. (Prob'ly got distracted by some adorable little cop or somethin') I was gonna' skip Derek cause he's leavin' anyway. Next weekend is your time to go to N'ville I think, You'll pbob'ly be too ...busy then to bother with the board. Then if Bobbelina doesn't go inta' the office an' Derek gone, i should have it made. I'll threaten Boo with....well something. Maybe bad luck cause she can't hardly stand anymore <G> Wy

Howdy Mudgieeeee!!! It's MEEEEE again, Margaret!! Heck, you prolly don't 'member that song anyway!! Bet yer surprised ta see me, after lettin' this li'l thang slip off'n page 1...but ya see, I was mighty bizzy this weekend and couldn't come to the office to keep ya in line. Hadda short weekend and my first real company...so spent Saturday in a frenzy of unpackin' an' cleanin'. One of my elderly aunts an' her daughter and daughter's hubby came an stayed at my place overnight. 'Course I hadda get it at least semi-presentable. Oh...an' bake some more cookies. They got oatmeal raisin, 'cause that is what my cousin's hubby asked for. They all pronounced 'em palatable!  I made a slew of 'em so they could munch on them on the rest of the drive to Florida. My aunt spends the winters down there. Rest of the year they all live in Michigan. I am officially firin' Ms Julia as my personal cat. She is a love-slut. She actually slept on my aunt's feet all night!! LOL Secretly, I think my aunt really appreciated that cause it got pretty nippy and I prolly don't keep my house as warm as she likes it. What a fickle feline!!  Ms Julia that is...not my aunt. As fer that sudden memory acquisition...LOL it is rather sporadic like that. Memory sorta fades in an' out. It's mostly long term memory though. Hope ya still got some cookies left!!  Hugs, Bobbie

Uh Bobbelina, Well, I said way back down the thread somewhere that I wasn't answerin' no more if it ever slipped off the page, but figuring you'd be ornery enough to make me go back and find it, that it'd be easier to answer again. "you prolly don't 'member that song"--------Nope, don't think I do (It's an "age" thing)------- --------'my elderly aunts"---------A "likely " story---That's worsin' the cat eatin' the cookies <G> You seem not all that feisty since your return so I can imagine what you were doin' over the weekend. (I still remmber stuff like that) -----------Oatmeal raisin huh? Hmmm---Uh,strange about miss Julia. "mostly long term memory though' --Well, I understand that part. "Hope ya still got some cookies left!!"------Oh yeah, meant to speak to you about your cookies-----They don't "last" like other cookies----------course, "other' things last longer, like,it took me threedays to eat the other half of a candy bar I had,and the bag of boughten cookies I had---it's holding out well. So---maybe that all averages out <G>-------------Even so, I'm not even halfway through the half that's not frozen so I don't have to use my self restraint yet. There, thread's finished Wy (Oh, the ones in this one zip loc bag were broken up some so I decided the best way to not lose any of the crumbs was to shake 'em down in the corner and take 'em out with a spoon <G>) More coffee

Well Wy,
I see that no one is shirkin' their replying obligations on thisun. This is at dang near 300 B & F's (that's Back & Forths, BTW), so I had to drop in mith my nickel's worth. I showed up with my two-cents' worth and the board just laughed at...and then reminded me of the economics of inflation.
The onliest thing I can say 'bout the song is that's it's pretty derned good. Now, when it comes to sayin' somethin' 'bout those fiesty women, I guess I gotta be a bit careful. Heck, they just might show up atcher door unexpected like. They're sneaky like that, ya know! Well, they can't do that to me cause I ain't got no place fer 'em to park their brooms!
I'm not a cookie eater...heck, don't care much for sweets at all, 'cept angel food cake with strawberries over it...so, can't get into that part of the discussion.
Well, I'm gonna jump outta this fray fore I get in deeper than I get out of. Again, good song.
Alan

Even Al?, Well, I figure that's a "one time thing", unlike some "others". I've closed the thread several times but you know how those feisty women are. You can tell 'em but ya' can't tell 'em much. --------no place fer 'em to park their brooms!-----------------------Well, the problem at my humble abode, and it is quite humble indeed---I kinda' ran outa' time to buy something and just bought something cheap that needed some work. Anyway the problem with it is, as far as any 'overnight" visitors, I've only got one bed, (Well there "is" this old lumpy couch <G>) ------heck, don't care much for sweets at all---------------------Oh I like all kinds a'...sweet stuff. There. thread's closed again. Better try to bring Tracy up and see if I got my song in on time Wy

Yup Mudgie..."It's Me Again, Margaret" is actually an old Ray Stevens song...not sure it was even on the radio much but it is on my favorite cassette of his. THAT should tell you how old it is! LOL The song is his end of a phone conversation where he is a stalker or something like that. It may not SOUND funny, but it was. I bet Tampa Stan would 'member it. He's a big Ray Stevens fan. Meant ta tell you that there aren't any preservatives in my cookies so they hafta be eaten up rather fast ya see. LOL They really don't last very well unless you freeze 'em. I do understand about the crumbs. They taste just as good as whole, unbroken cookies IMO. LOL I bet they even make yer coffee go down better, huh?  I am TOO feisty since I got back. LOL I am just tired from gittin' up at 4:30 am so I could get the relatives back on the road again. What with me not bein' a mornin' person an' all...THAT effort alone made me sleepy all day yesterday!! LOL Just so ya know...I am savin' up my feist so I can drop a big load of it on ya all at once!!  Be very scared!! Hugs, Bobbie

Hey Bobbelina, Well, I know Ray Stevens 'acourse but still don't 'member Margaret. No preservatives---Well, maybe I'd better freeze some more. I still "like' sweet stuff it just doesn't take as much as it used to----------"I bet they even make yer coffee go down better,"-------Well, I eat "some" with coffee, but mostly, I'd rather savor 'em by themselves ----Give 'em my full attention ya' know. ---------- I am TOO feisty since I got back. LOL I am just tired from gittin' up at 4:30 am so I could get the relatives back on the road again-------------OK maybe you really "did" entertain yer' elderly aunt over the weekend <G>. ----------- ..I am savin' up my feist so I can drop a big load of it on ya all at once!! Be very scared----------------You sure yer' not runnin' low on feist? <G> Wy (Ain't scared uh' nothin' (hardly <G>)

Well Mudgie... Feist is not my "natcheral" state of being ya see. I hafta work UP to it. LOL So when I am tired, I sorta let my feist slip a bit.  So now you know my secret. So mebbe I am runnin' a bit low on it at the moment. Yeah...I really DID entertain my elderly aunt. LOL She is gonna be 90 soon. Had my heat cranked up to almost 80 and she was still cold. LOL Guess Ms Julia was just bein' nice to sleep on her feet all night. LOL I am considering forgiving her for her dalliance.  Had a funny thing happen this mornin'. LOL I got up about 6 to let Julia out. Left the window open so she could come back in when she wanted to. Got up about 8 and she was back in the house so I shut the window. I was getting ready for work and I heard this loud THUNK. Went in the office and there was this beautiful calico cat sittin' on the floor shakin' her head. She musta been IN the house when I shut the window and when she tried to go back out...musta banged her head purty hard on the shut window!! I felt so bad cause then Ms Julia got ticked at the other cat for being in HER house and this poor cat was definitely dazed an' confused already! Good thing the cousins and aunt left MI when they did. Heard they got snow up in those parts. Mebbe Ms Jan or Bill can tell us for sure. It rained mighty hard here last night...but we sure needed it. No snow yet though. I feel the feist returnin'. LOL Hugs, Bobbie

Well Bobbelina, "Feist is not my "natcheral" state of being ya see. I hafta work UP to it. LOL"----------------Boy "that's" new information. I'll store that in the "maybe" file <G>. That late night visitor reminds me of the sign on the junk yard fence, to wit-----"Anyone found here at night will be found here the next morning". I think I told this story once but it's been a while. True story anyway-----------This junk--salvage yard,had cars and stuff scattered over a few acres. Fenced 'acourse. Anyway, they'd been losing a lotta parts at night so an employee was sittin out there one night with a rifle or shotgun and caught some kids stealing stuff. I don't know the full story but the end result was he shot one a' the kids and killed him. Now, understand I'm not making any judgements on the case, but I said right away, "I'll bet he never serves any time in Benton County Mo. and he didn't. They arrested him 'acourse but at the trial they turned him loose. Back to the cats---Gotta' be a story in there somewhere. "Julia's Late Night Caller" .Save the cat part till the bridge <G>. No moisture here but we don't 'specially need it. Uh, If ya' gotta' "work up" ta' this feist stuff, don't get all worked up on my account <G>. Hmm---"She's Priceless When She's Feistless" <G> That 'literates good. Wy

Hey Mudgie, Yeah..I prolly should'na let the truth slip about me an' my feist. LOL I suspect I'll prolly regret that at some future time!  I kinda like bein' able to call up the feist when I need it. LOL Will wait ta see if'n you finish that "priceless" bit into a song. THEN I'll make a determination. Think I mighta heard that junkyard story before but it's always a good reminder. Kids today sorta seem to feel they are untouchable because they don't get prosecuted when they are juveniles. Bein' shot dead is quite another thing. I don't have a lotta empathy for kids that do illegal stuff. He may not have deserved death...but I bet it made other kids think twice about stealing in that area at least. Sad to be the "lesson". Been thinkin' 'bout some kinda cat burglar song. Will see if anything smacks me...or as Boo sez...'gobsmacks' me. LOL She is a hoot!! Was actually considerin' that bridge idea...but now I cain't write it that way cause you'd think I was usin' YER idea!! LOL THAT can NEVER happen!!  Hugs, Bobbie

Hey Bobbelina, -------Yeah..I prolly should'na let the truth slip about me an' my feist. LOL I suspect I'll prolly regret that at some future time! I kinda like bein' able to call up the feist when I need it. LOL Will wait ta see if'n you finish that "priceless" bit into a song. THEN I'll make a determination. -------------------------"That" gave me a laugh-----------Well, I didn't even think there was a song in that title,but with such incentive I had a heart to heart talk with the muse---Lessee, you "are" promising to leave the thread forever if I write this song, right?, right! OK Here's a V and a C of Priceless---Fresh off the envelope ---------------It's in 2nd person I think. I never--well, you know <G> She's Priceless When She's Feistless
V 1 He said, she's a holy terror When she gets started I mean the stuff hits the fan I said ,better stay away From feisty women They can be the death of a man
He said yeah, but---- C She's priceless when she's feistless She can take you to the stars You'll hear sweet music Like celestial guitars She'll rock you and roll you Till you don't care where you are She's priceless when she's feistless And turns on the charm --------------- Yeah, you and a few other folks who've been here a while,have no doubt heard that story, but we've got a ton a' new people. -------- "Been thinkin' 'bout some kinda cat burglar song. Will see if anything smacks me...or as Boo sez...'gobsmacks' me. LOL She is a hoot!! Was actually considerin' that bridge idea...but now I cain't write it that way cause you'd think I was usin' YER idea!! LOL THAT can NEVER happen!! ------------------------------------------Well just erase that little section from me outa' your mem'ry, you know, like ya' would a bad love affair, and go ahead and write it. Nothing oughta' stand in the way of a good song, (Well, we don't know how "good" it'd be but you never can tell.) Wy

LOL Well, Mudgie... I ain't nevah forgotten any of my bad love affairs neither! There's always a lesson to be learned from 'em ya know!! You think by now I'd have run through 'bout all the lessons one could possibly learn...but noooo!! I still hafta keep learnin' new ones...or mebbe I am just so old I am havin' ta relearn ones I was s'posed ta learn a long time ago but fergot!! Yer chorus is purty durn good even if I do HAFTA admit it. Love that 'celestial guitars' bit. Hmmmm. I am THAT good, huh? LOL Well, in that case...I wasn't makin' ANY promises whatsoever. I just meant I'd make some kinda determination...not havin' anything whatsoever ta do with not comin' back to this thread 'er nothin'. LOL The night was inky black like velvet Without the light of distant stars The silence it was deafening Save for the hum of distant cars In the safety of her king sized bed She slept in peaceful dreams that night As the night breeze poured over her She lay unaware of watchful eyes Ok...ya got me started. That might be a first verse. Gotta figure out where ta go with it without giving away that it's a cat. Prolly hafta write the bridge next and then go back and do the second verse so I know where I'm headin'...or not.  These things usually take on a life of their own ya know. Might hafta do a song next about erasin' some guy outta my life like a bad love affair though. That's got me thinkin' too!! I got enough mem'ries of THAT kinda thing to be able to do that one from mem'ry!! LOL Mebbe I need more feist to write THAT one though. I may be up ta finishin' a cat song. Hafta call up my feist reserves for the man song though. If'n I was less feisty, I'd prolly thank yew fer jumpstartin' my muse today...but since I'm not..I prolly won't. ROFL!! Hugs, Bobbie

Well, Bobbelina, just so you keep learnin'. When we quit learnin' we kinda' "stagnate? and wouldn't want ya' to do "that----------------- Yer chorus is purty durn good even if I do HAFTA admit it. Love that 'celestial guitars' bit. Hmmmm. I am THAT good, huh? LOL Well, in that case...I wasn't makin' ANY promises whatsoever. I just meant I'd make some kinda determination...not havin' anything whatsoever ta do with not comin' back to this thread 'er nothin'. LOL------------------------------- --------------- I kinda' liked that line myself. Actually, I rewrote that while still on the envelope.--------- Well, uh, lets see, on the "that good" thing--- it's a 2nd person song ya' see and I figured on bein' the "singer"(Well. I'm not much singer but you know what I mean), and the "other" guy's the one that knows all this stuff. "Personally", I don't know much about the lady in question having never met her <G> ------------That's a purty good first V Bobbelina. First and last lines 'specially. Ya' got two 'distants" in there but I'll overlook that, bein' as it's wet ink. As to erasin' some guy outa' your life, some gal already washed one outa' their hair but should be able to erase one too. As to calling up some feist---I'm sure there will be plenty available when you need it. Probably just bustin' to get out <G> ----------------------------------------------I thought you weren't hardly feisty at all right now?. Aw, go ahead and thank me. As they say in that old song "It only Hurts for A Little While' Wy (I wonder where that Boo person you spoke of is. Hope she hasn't broken something (else))

Well, Boo is prolly purty good considerin' she's been talkin' with me..LOL It mighta set her back some but she'll prolly git over it eventually! I ain't worried 'bout runnin' outta feist. Might run low every once in awhile but it's kinda like 'lectricity...you kin always recharge it. Personally, I never had a prollem with runnin' totally OUT!!  Yeah...sometimes mine just hasta break free. Bet you mighta noticed that a time or three. LOL Glad ya liked my first draft of the first verse. Already finished it...well, the first draft that is. Changed it to present tense to make it feel more tension. Am gonna post it after I give it a few more looksees. As fer erasin' that guy...maybe I might hafta update it a bit an' say I am doin' a CONTROL ALT DELETE on him!! LOL He prolly deserves it. Hugs, Bobbie

Poor Bobbie - had to learn feistiness - I was born with it!
And of course I have to put my 2 bits in on the bad love matches - there was this one guy I dated back in Bowling Green, we were competing DJ's..... oops - that was more than 20 years ago - and we're back together again!!! I USED to consider him a guy that I wanted to forget - now I'm sure glad I didn't!!!
Hey Wy - I stayed away for 3 days - I tried to let it go... it's all Bobbie's fault!

You are learnin' Charlann. Round here, it's ALWAYS Bobbie's fault. Just ask Mudgie-man!  Hey...I think there's a song in Bad Love Matches...comparing love to the game of tennis. There's the net, the fault, the back and forth volleys. I am gonna hafta do that one I guess. Sure glad you didn't forget that guy!! That would'a been tragic...for BOTH of you!! Next time don't stay away so long!! LOL It gets lonely out here all by my lonesome...well, with that Mudgie...but that doesn't count!!  Hugs, Bobbie

Well, I've got 2 weeks and one day to go! Hopefully, he'll be over his poison ivy by then! He and his brother were clearing out his mom's backyard last weekend and are both covered with the rash!
We're looking forward to coming down and seeing your new place!

Hey Bobbie!
Tracy's got a wonderful cookie recipe that you need to try!
Use the recipe for Tollhouse cookies, but use light brown sugar, and instead of chocolate chips, use a bag of white chocolate chips and a bag of butterscotch chips.
They're scrumptious!
