Here we go again on a Friday….of course that’s monster day around here and I am as prepared for it as I ever am. Just keeping an eye on the hallway closet waiting for it to make an appearance. Then “LET THE CLEANING BEGIN!!!!!”…………………
“Mr. Clean” (?)
There are two ways of looking at the cleaning thing………..one of course is that we keep our homes nice and neat and clean and tidy, but we should also consider that when we clean, we might be destroying the lives of millions of dust bunnies all across the world!
I say I’d rather do without the bunnies and the sneezing from the dust and live in a nice clean house…….if anyone’s gonna mess this place up it should be ME! Right?
Yeah the place is a mess but I like my stuff where I can keep an eye on it!
Tomorrow is Bacon Day as you all know but Sunday is a HUGE day………..it’s Mother’s Day ( yay for Mom) AND it’s my 4th blogaversary and the party I’ll be giving for YOU – all my friends – to celebrate that occasion. Make sure you stop by even if it’s just for a minute OK?
Now get out there and start your Friday———————-it’s the end of the week and you have to START today to get to the end of today and the weekend! Right? Right!
Hugs, Sammy

Sherman, I do feel “blessed” by the troop situation here in my camp. The troops are located in a safe corner of the room…..it’s not in the center of the room which of course would be ideal, but it’s still a good location out of the line of fire. My advice to you is be PERSISTENT – it pays off eventually. Humans are rather SLOW when it comes to getting the not so subtle hints we give them but it’s not their fault…..they are, after all, only human.
