The garden may be covered in snow, but I can still dream of those wonderful summer days of last year. Warm days and a garden yielding a bumper crop of good eats.
Thanks to Lin for the comment on last Friday’s post. She told how after her foot surgery the doctor had suggested she purchase two pair of inexpensive athletic shoes–one in her regular size the other a size or two larger. I thought about that overnight on Sunday and this morning I drove to Walmart and bought two pair of shoes. For now the larger one goes on the right foot and the smaller on the left. After the next foot surgery, the unmatched sizes will be reversed with the large shoe on the left. I like that I’ll be able to use all four shoes–eventually. 😀 Isn’t that a great idea?
It is with sorrow that I pass on last week’s report from Shark of My Quality Day that her dog, Maggie has passed. Shark and Maggie were visitors here at the home of Secondary Rds in early December. Maggie was a sweetheart and a lady. I’m glad that I had the chance to meet her.
Finally, here is a poetic rerun for my cousin, Beverly, who missed it the first time around. Do you remember this bit of fun?
Don’t Wok On My Kitty
Don’t wok on my kitty,
Please don’t wok on my cat.
I love my furry feline friend,
I’m here to tell you that.I do not want her baked or broiled,
Nor cooked up in stir fry.
And if you wok my kitty,
You know I’ll surely cry.You may have exotic tastes,
And go for things like that.
But don’t wok on my kitty,
Please don’t wok on my cat.
Have a good week and keep looking for Spring. I’m sure that it’s coming soon. Isn’t it? Please!
Oh, Chuck! Thanks for that. I do miss her.
You are most welcome Shark. Thanks for bring her on your visit here.
Oooh, I’m so glad the shoe idea worked! I can’t take credit–that was my foot doctor who suggested it for me. It’s good that you can end up using both pairs. 🙂
So sad about Maggie, eh? It’s hard to lose a good animal friend. I know Sharkey loved her a lot.
I just need to do a bit of stretching on the larger shoe. I have the tool on order, and it should be here on Monday.
Very sad, but not completely unexpected. 🙁
Oh no, I remember seeing a picture of Maggie on your site. I’m sorry to hear she passed.
She was a good dog. Hope you read her story on MQD. 8)
I just went over. What a touching story, and a nice gal (Maggie and her owner!).
I couldn’t agree more. 😀
You are such a talented guy & thank you for the repost of your poem, my Sebastian would surely appreciate it too. She even likes men!
You are welcome. I’m glad you like my silly poem.
Our former cat was my kitty. Nellie, tolerates me–sort of. Tonight on the fifth day of Sylvia’s vacation, she spent more time with me. That was nice. 8)
