The pup is a child

Love is the same for the wolves

Red, grey, white keeps safe

Good day or evening! It’s a sunny dry day here in Wyoming. My granddaughter is making biscuits and slime. . .exactly how they fit together I’m not sure I want to know. But ceenphotography.com‘s questions appear today, I hope you all join in!

🌻🌻🌻

1. Definitely not. I like it here, despite our fearful leader. Earth is a beautiful blue ball floating around and I’m just lucky to be stuck to it. I wouldn’t mind being able to see it like the astronauts do, but this is home.

2. This is a sore point with me. I used to be almost 5’6″ but my back has degenerated so much, the spine is crushed down and I am 5’1″ now. 😳😏

3. Yes. I have had it unusable for three days in a row. No phone, no iPad, wifi, etc so stuck. At the same time my wheelchair was out being repaired and my scooter unusable. However, I did clean out my trunk, desk, and boxes of photos. Hmmm, maybe it was a good thing.🤔☺️

🌻🌻🌻

This week I am grateful for getting together with my family and going to the Botanical Gardens–a treat. I am looking forward to getting some financial crap sorted out this week. Yes, that describes it perfectly.😉😎🤠

I’m also grateful for photos of my far away granddaughter: 🌸❤️🌸

I just decided to watch “The Judge”, started out well and then one of our outages with tv, or wifi must have caused it to just stop in the middle of the recording. Anxious now to watch the rest, thought I would try google play movies, downloaded the app. What a mistake.

Now after trying to get it straightened out, it is two hours later. In that time I could have scootered down to the Red Box in Safeway to rent it for a dollar. Instead I thought, why not try the google app?

After multiple times trying to watch anything beyond the trailer, finally contacted google help. Chatted with someone who seemed nice but couldn’t help me. I saw the payment of 2.99 right in front of me but she kept saying she didn’t have it. Then I went to the payment screen as she requested and lost her. Went back and saw “chat ended.”

Went to help screen and chose call back help. Who in the world mans these phones? This woman was rude, asked me the same questions over and over and when I said it slowly and clearly again and again, I finally asked if there was someone else I could speak with. How many times can you repeat the same four numbers? She just kept talking as if I wasn’t even there. Finally after five minutes of her not shutting up or listening to my answers I was rude. Very rude. I asked if there was anyone available that had more brain power than she had. She just kept talking over me. So I said, are you listening? Do you have a supervisor I can speak to? Kept talking. I finally said, do you have a supervisor, you know, someone with a brain? She apparently was listening for the first time, and told me, I am discontinuing this call because I don’t have to put up with bad language.

I didn’t use any, yet, unless brain is what she considers bad. I just hung up, deleted the app, payment method and will never use it again.

Joe and his companion finished their lunch at the small cafe in the tiny mountain town. Finding nothing familiar on the menu they ordered a simple hamburger. At least that’s what they thought.

Both noticed an unusual flavor to the meat, but thought it was only a local spice the two ranch cowboys hadn’t experienced.

Unfortunately they were correct. As the meal started to digest the two men acted like absquatulating aliens as they rushed to the restroom at the same time.

They were classified as aliens, by the restaurant owners and employees –humanoids.

June Writing Prompts

Mirrored and sleek

Brook or creek

Rapid or bubble

Clean or rubble

Liquid water is a must

Needed to nourish dust

Animals, humans the same

Plants and earth all claim

The thirst that only water fills

From clouds or mountain rills.

Do you have a permit for that, buddy?

For what? I’m just sitting here.

Yes, for just sitting there, smartass.

Why do I need a permit?

It’s called loitering, asshole. It’s forbidden to sit on the curb.

But I’m not doing anything! I’m just a visitor in your town and needed a rest. Surely I can just sit here.

Okay, stand up and show me your ID!

The boy stands and makes the mistake of reaching inside his coat.

The town’s self appointed host unholsters his gun and yells, don’t move another inch!

But I’m getting the ID you asked for and freezes his arm in place.

The host yanks the arm out of the visitor’s jacket and the ID spills onto the gutter.

As he bends to retrieve the ID, the gun wielder yells, sit down!

The visitor sits back down on the curb. That’s what I was doing in the first place.

You say another word and you’ll feel my handcuffs, as he read the ID information. The visitor was a teen ambassador from Canada. Damn transients, the man muttered as he returned the information.

The unwelcome visitor moved on.

The strangers with her on the rooftop paused in unison. No one had seen it before, at least not up close like this! Children’s and adults’ mouths were agape as they felt the searing heat of the flames. Their eyes should have been shielded but they didn’t know it would get so close to be a danger.

The red hot mass streaked down in the cloudless sky, a huge comet falling to earth. It was a rare occurrence to see one this close. It had only happened once before, millions of years ago. The result will sadly be the same as then.

“I can’t wait to get a drink! Hiking around this small mountain area, the air is so dry, I’m parched!” The cowboys were unfamiliar with this tiny town’s community but heard the hiking was wonderful and were not disappointed. They did notice there were quite a few abandoned houses, mostly in need of repairs.

Sitting down at the table of a small cafe, they looked forward to lunch. The waitress came out of the kitchen and asked if they would like to see a menu. “Yes, please, but could we have some water. . .right away?”

Waitress Jenny was used to this but followed establishment rule, having to ask first. “Certainly sir, I’ll bring it right out! Meanwhile, the specials today are sautéed tripe, pickled feet, and blanched tongue.”

“Uh, I think we’ll look at the menu first, thanks.” Joe looked at his companion with a smirk, “I hope the water’s good!” They didn’t see anything appealing, decided they would just ask for a hamburger. They couldn’t go wrong with an old fashioned hamburger.

They were very wrong.

Since Tom over at tombeingtom decided to defend my nest, I called upon the Queen of the garden. The beautiful Camellia, popular in Victorian times, was often given as a gift meaning “my destiny is in your hands”. A ceremony will be held as she will dub him Knight of the Garden.

Chugging along, steam rising

Ash on your hat not surprising

Opened windows, you can hear the grind

Of wheels turning against the line

A rhythm of movement rolling along

As if portraying a relaxing song

The hum of the steel against the rails

Is a pleasing ride that never fails
