Melting Monday

Posted on March 9, 2015 by onespoiledcat

AT LAST AT LAST……..because we snuck (sneaked?) up to sixty degrees yesterday (what a treat) some of our nasty old snow is melting away………this is good……..this is making me happy. But the BEST part is some of our grass is visible again. Who cares of it’s brown and crunchy…..it’s GRASS!

It’s going away! YAY!

I wanted to let you know that we’re having a GUEST TEASER tomorrow……….that’s right……….not a Mom-photo, this is from a friend of ours and I purrrrsonally think it’s rather a “doozy”. So that means you’d better start studying up………….the photo was not taken RECENTLY either so you know how things can change over the years……….the spot where this photo was taken “back then” may not quite look the same now. Kinda like that one last week from Venice BUT not that old. OK?

Don’t forget now – we have a lovely variety of badges available for you if you’re sharp enough to win one……..or more……….last week my buddy Raz won TWO badges! Here’s what you can win:

This you will win if you’re the first to comment on tomorrow’s blog (whenever it shows up!) No guessing necessary – just comment and if you’re first – it’s YOURS!

If you are the first one to guess WHERE the Teaser was snapped and you’re RIGHT, you get this little beauty!

If your guess is RIGHT, but you’re not the first RIGHT guesser, you will win the “draggin” (haha)!

Oh and here’s the badge you fans of the green (and remember NEXT Tuesday IS St. Pat’s Day so a GREENIE will be a treat!) will win if you guess but you’re WRONG or you have no idea where the photo was taken……….see? Everybody’s a winner on Sam’s Blogarooonie!

Even though St. Pat’s is NEXT Tuesday, I’m celebrating starting today……………..and I, your host, Sammy O’Kimmell, will be watchin’ for winners and losers and everything in between………………GOOD LUCK (maybe next Tuesday you’ll get your pot of gold by winning the Teaser!).

HUGS,

Sam the Teaser

  Yeah we HOPE the snow is dead Easy but sometimes in March he/she/it sneaks back for ONE MORE SHOT! You might need ALL of your Teaser skills tomorrow…….trust me……….I don’t think Columbus’ computer was equipped with google either!

Umm Sammy, I think you are a week early for St Patrick’s Day. It is on the 17th.
I am glad your snow is starting to melt. I bet your dad is too so he won’t have to keep taking the snow moving monster for a walk.

  You’re right Flynn…..a certain someone in my house was looking at the calendar with bleary eyes this morning before coffee!! Dad is happy about not having to use the snowthrower but then he complains because he’ll have to be getting the string trimmer, backpack blower and lawn tractor out soon. It’s always something!!! HAHAHA

Wow, Sammy O’Kimmel is anxious to celebrate St. Patty’s day!! That’s okay, Sammy: thanks for the heads up! I need the extra time to find something green to wear. 😉
Enjoy that munchy grass – soon it will be green (but maybe not in time for St. Patrick’s Day).
Love, Sundae

YAY! Sammy!! Spring is coming!! 🙂 I want to have all those badges one day 🙂 BTW Flynn is right I think St Pat’s day is next week! Our special day here in Wales is St David’s Day on March 1st, but everyone seems to miss it, including me MOL. I think it’s because mum’s from London, which is ya know, like, in England!!! 😉 Have a great week and we will be back tomorrow to claim one or two of those badges !!!

    Ha ha! Dying… you guessed it! Maniac Marv is back this morning after 4 weeks of not having to listen to him. He now had a big metal claw on the front loader to pick up the piles of trees and move them to another location. I am sure that could take years! I am getting used to it. You crack me up Pam!
