Dear Redeaglespirit1,
You’re SO RIGHT!!! For a long time I’ve fussed about not being able to blog every day. I bought a small tape recorder so that I could tape ideas when I was somewhere I couldn’t write them down. I thought that if the ideas were available, I would be able to post at least something small every day.
Welll…it looks like that’s just not my style. Usually I make the time to post on the weekends, but one of my stepsons was working on our computers this weekend, and then I was away on Sunday, and by the time late Sunday evening rolled around, it just wasn’t going to happen. Actually, I would have been happy to go to bed without dinner on Sunday, I was so worn out from spending the day with my sister.
So, here it is, Monday, past my bedtime, and I finally made the time to blog. I must be in good company, if you went a week without posting. *S* I know you all understand about the rest of our lives occasionally getting in the way. This week I have to start putting the gardens to bed for the winter, so I expect to be away again. Btw….go visit Bogie….and see all the stuff SHE has to do to get ready for winter! Maybe you could laugh at her pun about putting the gardens to bed. (I ignored her.)
I’ll save up a week of comments and be back. I want to tell you about “Lucifer’s Hammer” and pumpkin carving, and scarecrows, and Halloween. And I know that other things will come to me over the weekend.
Have a great week!
Arrrgh!!!
It's just my state of mind!
1. You do know that repeating a pun does not lessen the crime?!
2. You’ve been reading again? (Lucifer’s Hammer)
Most Important: Glad that you were finally able to make the time to blog. I tried to be nice and not bug you, but…how long do you think I can go without my Buffy fix? (You were just checking, weren’t you?)
Lucifer’s Hammer – another book that has sat on the shelves without being re-read for far too long!
i’m not sure if I should be happy or hurt that you ignored me. I think I’ss settle for happy!
I think while I’m at it I’ll take some typing lessons!
Wait…..I’m confused by number one. Are you saying that if I repeat the pun, I’m guilty by extention? Or…is Bogie MORE guilty because I repeated it? (MOM!! It’s all HER FAULT!!)
Yes….I just finished “Lucifer’s Hammer” this morning. I read it roughly 20 years ago, and I hope to make the time to blog about the book and a TV show that was on one of the science channels recently. I couldn’t afford the time to read, but I couldn’t put the book down. I’ll be putting the gardens to ….. ( I know…..don’t repeat the pun)…in the middle of winter at this rate.
Settle for happy, Bogie! It got you a link, if not a trackback, and it might get you more! lol
Blame the typing on icy fingers from all the outside work you’ve been doing. (See…I did it without mentioning the pun again! smirk )
Oh….and Cop Car…thanks for not nagging. I feel guilty enough without being reminded that I haven’t been keeping up with my blogging! *G*
I appreciate that you come to read, and that you are a patient person.
Patient person! Who! do you know who is? I don’t think I know any! Sounds like you have a full week, have fun puting the garden to bed!
Hey, I got Joe to repeat it! Okay, I can be really happy now (and by the way, thanks for the link!).
Joe, one of my favorite prayers is “Dear Lord, please give me patience, NOW!” I hope HE shares my sense of humor, and will help me to find patience one day.
Bogie…..your sense of humor is infecting the Internet, slowly but surely! I can see it spreading out in ever-widening circles. *G* The link was the least I could do!
Btw….Dear Husband shares your sense of humor. BAD puns are his forte.
…ha – I was going to mention we could have a *book club* where buffy mentions which book she’s just read and the rest of us have a week to read it…except I’m too busy reading blogs to actually get through lucifer’s hammer :^)…
…just a question though – the postman, kevin costner’s film…not that I’ve seen it but did anyone else hear the concept and thought immediately of lucifer’s hammer and the guy who did *trash mail day* :^)…
YES!!! As I re-read the book, that was the image that popped into my head!
Billy, it’s a constant battle here….do I want to read blogs, read books, garden, or clean my house. The house is pretty darned dirty…..
I’d love a book club, but I wouldn’t be able to keep up with it, and neither would you!
I’m going to go finish the butternut squash soup, so that I can get a few hours in the gardens before the rain comes in.
…I haven’t read this comment, I’m too busy cleaning the house…no, I’m in the garden…oh, alright then – beer mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :^)…
Some of us are too lazy to do real work, so we settle for reading blog comments. Did you see the cartoon in “The New Yorker” (Oct 25, 2004) that shows two new denizens being escorted into the bowels of the underworld by a couple of santan’s minions? The gate keeper says, “Put the punster in with the mime.”
I could claim that I used “santan’s” to skirt around built-in security measures. Truth is: I just can’t type!
(laughing) It seems to run in the family, Cop Car. I LOVE the cartoon! I’ll have to tell Dear Husband!
Billy…..PUT THAT BEER DOWN! lol
…I’ve downed it :^)…
DRAT!! I wasn’t quick enough! lol
You’re just getting away with that because Cal is so busy knitting right now.
