Meat is something I grew up with, probably had daily. Now it’s more of a pain to fix, and so expensive! I usually shop for groceries online and never buy meat or fish there. It all depends on the store person who is shopping for me—most times it’s someone who cares but if not, I am stuck with it unless I ask someone to return it. That’s why it’s a pita😂. If I am in the store I choose an item and freeze it in portions to mete out the cost and have no waste. If I meet up with my daughter to take me to the store, I buy fresh items when I can see them myself. Got the bonus points!Yea😀

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS Nov. 4, 2023

On the Fence?

If everything I contribute is brash and callous, my peak of followers will diminish. This of course is a trite reminder and causes placid posts to occur. So then, what is my choice? Be myself with an occasional hopefully humorous vibe or a dig at say, Mr T, or to write with words “everyone” accepts? I mostly try to stay in the middle but…

Joe ducked, he was almost used to it. As the television screen dissolved into flashing colorful pieces, he decided now would be a good time to join his buddies at the coffee shop. If only Trump would stop showing his lying face and voice, the tv was safe for a while. But today? He thought maybe do a rental plan for tvs from now on.

Picture Prompt-14

december 19, 2016 by rugby843

If I stay very quiet under this tree they won’t suspect a thing. Well, I am a feline after all, so they might suspect, but they won’t be able to prove anything. That’s why it’s so nice having a dog in the family. They’re so big and clumsy, they always get the blame.

I see the target. When everyone leaves the room, I’ll make my move. I’m surprised they put those fronds in the Christmas arrangement in the first place. I do love them. They are furry and flop around like a squirrel’s tail, and squirrels are so much fun to chase.  

Okay, Barney just lumbered in and there’s not a human in sight! Perfect! (Sneaking, sneaking, jump!) I grab a couple of fronds and escape to my cushion. I stretch out and pretend I’m asleep.

“Oh, Barney! Bad dog, bad dog”

I timed it perfectly. Heh, heh, heh…

MLMM 11-3-23 – A Cold

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

Sneezing

Coughing

Spitting germs

Going out

With wet hair

They were earned.

Honeyed tea

Soothes my throat

My dizzy head

Feels like I’m on a boat.

Thermometer handy

Temperature hot

Is this all the OJ I’ve got?

Friends offer food

Visits are tiring

Soup is good

But not inspiring.

I’m ready for bed

But sleep won’t come

My whole body’s on a feverish hum.
