  1. I'm sure you'll remain as adorkable as you currently are. Oh and Howdy.
  2. You might not mind a hedgehog in your garden since they are primarily insectivores but you don't want a groundhog since they're herbivores and fond of a number of garden crops such as peas, beans, carrot tops, spinach, etc.
  3. A very nice lady you say, about your age you say ... hmmm ...
  4. Our groundhog is not the same as a hedgehog, entirely different species. The groundhog or woodchuck is a double coated rodent, marmota monax, related to the marmot.
  5. And since he isn't gonna go out drinking with you, oh, and learned the importance of condoms, we'll never know.
  6. Very pretty ... the dog is too.
  7. I had to be concerned with groundhogs nesting under any brushpiles I built. Also, my local township has an ordinance against burning brush or trash, there is an exception for farms allowing them to burn brush.
  8. Mum says she could eat soup every day. She says the same thing about salad.
  9. Weren't you gonna eat it anyway?
  10. Fighting that infection may have someyhing to do with your energy level too.
  11. Great minds at work ...
  12. You need an old clawfoot bathtub like I have at my home in PA. It's a wonderful place to soak tired bones. There were many a cold winter's evening that I would run a tub of hot water with bath salts, light a candle, put on some soft jazz and soak before crawling into bed for the night.
  13. The first vote I cast in a presidential election was for Carter. I thought then and still do today that he was a decent man.
  14. Thanks Sherye. Thanks too Marty and Clo.
  15. Luck bro.
  16. So I just watched a youtube video of Austin Brown singing "Unchained Melody" I'd have shared it but I don't know how to insert the link.
  17. ... and a poet spoke. I am left gobsmacked but her eloquence.
  18. Here too.

    Chapter 33

    Well, uhm, okay, shite ... meanwhile back with the Pack Fergus is slowly losing it, well his mind and his pack. I like Doris. ... now where did I leave that pitchfork ... last time I had it was when @Carlos Hazday pulled that crazy stunt ...
  20. Ohhh, you've made me cry again ...
  21. Okay so I have to admit I had tears when I got to the little boy in the airport saluting Ritch ... damn, just writing about it here brought tears. I enjoyed watching strings from other stories being tied into this one. That's one of the most significant differences from the early CJ stories. Those exist in a sort of vacuum but the spinoffs occur simultaneously with overlapping timelines. The sudden flick of a switch reminding us that Chipper was doing the "Voice" while Ritch was busy adjusting to life at the Academy in Colorado. Also, that he hadn't seen his brother's completed home. There are a lot of divergent lives being lived. Excellent chapter.
  22. I made a small beef roast in the crockpot. I added carrots, onion and a bit of roasted red pepper. I served it over brown basmati rice. Oh, sorry Val but mum's plate included the leftover peas from last night.
