All The News From This Week...and My NEW Favorite Knock Knock Joke

Roger Stone, Trump's long time political advisor, was arrested (handcuffed) in an early morning raid on his home.

Giving rise to my favorite Knock Knock joke to date

Knock Knock

Who's there?

FBI...OPEN THE DOOR.
(this was verbatim by-the-way)

Watched this multiple times yesterday as CNN had the house staked out. It never grows old,

And the SHUTDOWN ended yesterday as well.

After Nancy "Take No Prisoners" Pelosi handed his ass to him.

Yes...the Goverment is funded and open.

No...he didn't get his 5.7 Billion Extortion for the Wall.

But this was found at the bottom of Speaker Pelosi's handbag this morning...

There is speculation to be a correlation in events.

~laughing~

There is a new Queen in Westeros...er...Washington.

All kidding aside, after the past 2 years, we have needed a day like yesterday.
Went around with a goofy grin all day.

And the few Trump Supporters I know/interact with just looked gelded...stunned.

There is talk that bipartisan legislation is being drafted to assure that Our Government and its Citizens will not become a hostage to Trump or any other President again.

I certainly hope so.

Back to this week...

Sofi has resigned to her fate on the "explosive" days...and does the sleeper and preemie diaper without much of a fight now...which is nice.

And on the other days she is happily playing the "Fetch Game"...which, as far as I can tell...continues until one of us dies....

"AGAIN" ~Sofi


I never had a cat who played fetch before.

It's kind of neat.

 Honestly, they get along famously, now...and have been piling in with me at night to sleep. It makes for a lot quieter morning. No moaning of the damned emanating from the crate anymore...which is now used only for breaks from her (Sofi) at times. 

Loretta has been doing well and we try to catch each other a couple times a day.

Her eyes are finally showing some improvement now...so that is HUGE.

Diane and I plundered our brand-new just reopened KFC on Wednesday. Great new location and I think it's going to do really well there. A new owner of the franchise. Clean, spacious, and well staffed.  
Everything was hot and delicious. 

She is getting ready to see her Mom for a few weeks in Florida next month.

We made a new friend together this past week. A fellow user of the transit...Brenda hails from New Orleans. New to our area. Diane and I were discussing Etouffee Recipes...She joined us with a Gumbo Recipe...and we all started talking Beignets and Aunt Sally's Pralines...and before you know it we had exchanged numbers...I had given her the # to the Canjun Grocer...and we are all planning a Mardi Gras Gathering in March...lol

Cajun Grocers even ships Turducken!

I'll be making our King's Cake this year.

Complete with baby.

And IT is TIME!

After a year CLEAN TIME...Serena, My sister, Tina's, grand-daughter
(and this years GSC pusher) led me into temptation!
(and Tina and Chris, too!)

Cookies should be here next month.

Serena is going to deliver them herself (with Grandma)

James and Nicole are fostering Petunia and Agnes

Two full-blooded female Sharpei...whose owner is now a long haul driver and cannot be home for them. They are loving, wrinkly and soft. No bad habits.
Free to a Good Home...but absolutely NO BREEDERS. Crate trained. No separation...non-negotiable.

And I will put you in contact.

Serious inquiries only.

(UPDATE: 
The Girls have found their
FOREVER home!!!!  Thanks, Everyone!)


Chris has been painting and painting and finished two more of the game pieces.

I am loving the detail...and especially the crackle paint on the base to resemble Martian soil.

I am still atoning for the excesses of November and December with the ADF (alternating day fast).

It is getting easier, and I have adjusted (re-lost) three of the 12 pounds already!

(...and got to do it while enjoying KFC on a non-fast day...best diet ever...)

John and I looking forward to the Superbowl together soon!!!!

The Movie this Week:

The final in The Trilogy

Willis and Jackson from Unbreakable. James McAvoy as the Multiple in Split.

Together.

Parts of it edge of your seat thriller. Some of it incredibly sad. With a double twist of an ending that is signature M. Night Shyamalan

A  must-see.

Enjoy the rest of your Caturday...and the Weekend.

Real cold coming soon...may be time to HIBERNATE!

"Silly Humans...do you not know that EVERY day is Caturday"
