It’s a “Triple Duty” Day!
First I’m going to do my Friendly Friday Fill-ins which is co-hosted by 15andmeowing AND McGuffy’s Reader…………………..each Friday we have four sentences that we just “fill-in” with our own responses. Then we all share and it’s tons of fun to see how everyone answers. If you wanna pawticipate – just go to one of the blogs that’s hosting and use the LINKY TOOL and join in!
Here are the four sentences for today and this week I’m filling them in ALL BY MYSELF! My answers are in RED.
1. Peace in the world is my family’s #1 wish.
2. I need to take my thyroid medicine without giving Mom the bitey or spitting it out – I should be better about that, but I keep procrastinating.
3. A friend is the BEST gift you can get.
4. I will try to stop begging for butter but sometimes I can’t help myself!
There you have it! My fill-ins for today (say- why did the typeface change?!)
I’m joining THOUSANDS of bloggers who Blog For Peace every November 4th.
CLICK HERE to visit the website……….post your peace globe…………….GIVE PEACE A CHANCE………………
AND, last but not least, I want to sincerely thank my very good and dear friend from “Down Under” Sharon Pridmore of Gentle Stitches. She sent me and Mom a most cool thing from the incredibly magical place in Australia called Uluru Rock. Ever heard of it? An amazing red monolith rising out of the ground in the middle of nowhere…….with quite a story. You can read about it HERE and she sent me a souvenir of her visit there……Check it out!
This is FLAT ME with the globe by my feets!
This is a CLOSE up of the globe – isn’t it cool???????
Miss Sharon is the lovely lady who designed the fabulous “Sammy Tote” which she made with her very own talented hands (and yarn!) and the pattern for this way cool bag will be available in December on a knitting site – I’ll share the link when I get it. Meanwhile, here’s the photos I posted of it when we received our “prototype” tote from Miss Sharon a while ago!
HOW COOL IS THIS!!! It’s ME – It’s ME !!
Sorry to inundate you with STUFF today but I had a lot of things I needed to say – and thanks to give – and PEACE to share…………so I hope you have a PEACE-FULL day and weekend………..tomorrow is BACON DAY at my house!

Dear Miss Layla……you are right about the world needing peace more than ever…..and more than likely we will be saying that more loudly and clearly in the coming weeks…….!

That is a lovely gift of the globe from Uluru.
I don’t like taking my medication either. I used to fight against it, but now I roll over all submissive and my mum says that is worse and upsets her when I do that.
I can’t believe she forgot to help me with my Peace Globe! This is the first year that I haven’t participated. I will have to put last year’s globe in my sidebar instead. Better go an do that now before she forgets again!

The globe from Uluru is amazing and so is Uluru. You know I’ve always wondered about that big red mountain in the middle of nowhere but never bothered to look it up and find out about it until I got the globe from Miss Sharon.

You need to let mommy give you your medicine so that you can be fine. It is very sad for us humans when our furbabies are sick. I know it is no fun to take the medicine…but, the alternative is a bad thing, too. 😦

A funny thing to do would be to act like you’re getting better at taking the pill and get them used to you not fighting it, and then BOOM! Back to Rambo kitty. They are so confused they don’t know what to do next. haha
Did you know that they make a pill shooter? We got one from our vet and I don’t think it cost us anything. You load the pill in, put the shooter in the kitty mouth, squeeze the trigger, and in the pill goes. Maybe it makes the pill taking easier for kitty, too. You think you’d like to try that way, Sammy?
Hugs, Suz
LikeLike
We tried the shooter – I gagged on it so bad I thew up…..so much for that! It’s a good idea though – I just have an exaggerated gag reflex which makes it tough to give me the danged pill no matter HOW you do it. My Mom used to crush it and give it to me in a spoon full of baby food or yogurt…..that worked….we may have to do that again!

Aww I’m sorry that you have an exaggerated gag reflex. Sometimes I do, too. Maybe you should go back to mixing it with food. If it worked before, then it may work again. 🙂
