October / Libra with the usual blurb about us. Born in the year of the Rabbit with metal as my element. I hear some snickering out there, but those of you who think a rabbit is wimpy, I invite you to watch the following. Afterwards, check over your shoulder! Know that we are everywhere. More important to YOU, an upset rabbit never(ever,ever) forgets. Sandrewn

This one is for clochette who mentioned in her status update today "It's been raining all day. If it continues I'm going to drown!" I would submit to you that there are some people who just take these things in stride and go with the flow (so to speak). Raining cats & dogs? Keep dry Sandrewn

I suppose this is one of those do you consider it, half full or half empty situations. I myself almost always choose the half full point of view. Though I think in this case with the added feature of, its the thought that counts (minus the cash, transit pass and wallet). A bit of both maybe? http://ftw.usatoday.com/2016/02/a-new-yorker-lost-his-wallet-and-got-the-most-new-york-note-imaginable Sandrewn

A few of these might be considered politically incorrect (apologies in advance). A good example of the Yin and Yang This last was for a certain member here. Sandrewn

I don't know what they did, but I'm almost afraid to go up and find out. It's that innocent ' Who, me look?' Not quite a bakers' dozen, but close enough. Capt Kirk, there be kittens here! This is about as cute and innocent looking as it gets (beware). Sandrewn

I know the feeling. My grand niece does that to me now. I suspect that her son, my great grand nephew will be doing that too, when he gets a bit older. Feeling old, Sandrewn

How many of you have ever thought about Seahorses. Once in a blue moon ( ), never? You are not alone. Consider the following. http://www.theseahorsetrust.org/seahorse-facts.aspx Now, be honest guys, how many of you would want children if it was YOU in the hot seat so to speak (I sensed a bit of hesitation in your answers and the odd gulp). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKrkXXaRMUI&feature=player_embedded My hat is off to our own Moms and to all Seahorse dads, in the world.

I like to think that most people are kind and caring by nature. It is good to see proof of this every so often. http://animalmozo.com/2015/11/24/27-animals-that-people-did-amazing-things-for-17-made-me-lose-it-2/ http://cottagelife.com/news/adorable-newborn-beavers-given-second-chance-thanks-to-saskatchewan-wildlife-centre Sandrewn

I myself, never actually sat on it. http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/c6c7f3d0e5/man-falls-through-copy-machine?_cc=__t___&_ccid=false That must of hurt Sandrewn

I enlarged your photo along with this one I found. When put side by side, they look very similar. So I believe, these are tiny baby European Garden Spiders (Araneus diadematus). They are an orb-weaver spider found in Europe and North America. Here is a reference page with multiple pictures of our little friends. https://www.google.ca/search?q=araneus+diadematus&client=ubuntu&hs=rJs&channel=fs&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjutu20-PTMAhWHHD4KHalQDZEQiR4IhgE&biw=1024&bih=747&dpr=1.25#channel=fs&tbm=isch&q=araneus+diadematus+spiderlings Sandrewn

I went back to December to see what has been posted. Unfortunately some are no longer viewable. Hopefully mine won't be repeats. I just came across this one and had to post it. I love you mom Sandrewn

I was looking at the latest pictures that northie put in her gallery. I used an old phrase to describe them, it was, like an 'English Country Garden'. A song came to mind that I had not heard or thought of in over forty years. I promise that I won't play it again for another forty years (and don't worry I'll be worm food by then).

Okay, that last one was just wishful thinking on my part. Sandrewn

I'll keep this short and to the point. Enough said, Sandrewn

A bit off the topic, but I just saw your galleries. I am out of likes, so asap I will comment on those that really caught my attention. I like the theme of your stories and will read and review also asap. Now back to the purpose of this post, which was to... Wish You metajinx A Very Happy Birthday!!! Sandrewn

From what I am seeing here, I think there are only two options left to solve the situation: 1. Move, get the hell out while you still can!!! 2. Call Ghost Busters, it looks to me like that rat is well and truly possessed by a demon. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=00f_1462898017 Sandrewn

How often have you heard it said, or said it yourself " We are just one big happy family!". My friends, this family is the epitome of what this often laughed at phrase, should mean. I think love & faith were and are this family's cornerstones.

Of course not. Have you been to a party that at some point needed something to get the conversation going again? Yeah, me too. How about one of the following as an idea. Two points, I would like to add before hand. 1. No 3 - You would think that after all this time (2,700 years), it would now be legal! 2. No 2 - Some toys never seem to go out of fashion (28,000 years and counting). 12 of the Oldest Objects ever Discovered http://www.goliath.com/random/12-of-the-oldest-objects-ever-discovered/?streamview=all Sandrewn

To all my fellow Canadians here, I hope that you have a... Happy Victoria Day Victoria Day in 2016 In 2016 the Victoria Day holiday is on Monday, May 23. Victoria Day is a Canadian statutory holiday celebrated on the Monday preceding May 25 in every province and territory. It honours Queen Victoria's birthday. In Quebec this holiday is called "National Patriotes Day" (Journée nationale des patriotes). Victoria Day is also commonly referred to as the "May two-four weekend" or the "May long weekend" and it marks the unofficial start of the cottage season where cases of beer* are consumed by hard working Canadians. That's what we heard anyway. Or maybe it's called May two-four because May 24, 1819 is Queen Victoria's birthday :-) FYI: Prince Edward (1767–1820) after whom PEI was named was Queen Victoria's father. Victoria Day is a non-statutory "general" holiday in the maritime provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI and Newfoundland. In Quebec the National Patriots' Day is commemorted on this day. Call it what you will, its party time (as I twist off the cap of a cold one). CHEERS!!! Sandrewn B.T.W. - Everyone else, you are invited to join in, the more the merrier!!!

As I have said before, almost every time I visit GA I learn something new. I had never heard of FIV. My found stray kitten was never sick a day for seven years. In the space of a couple of months, I was at the vets holding her as she went to sleep for the last time. I never knew if it was something I did or didn't do for her. I am now better armed for when the next stray (it's inevitable) comes along. Thank you Sandrewn

You broke through the barrier last year(50), now you can just enjoy each and every one as they come. Plus, you have all weekend to celebrate! Your works have at times made me look back at things/events in my own life and made me wonder what if, on occasion. Few writers have done that, thank you. Don't stop, your fans and friends await new chapters and stories yet to come. I do really want to... Wish You Cole Matthews A Very Happy Birthday!!! I had to reach back for this original. Sandrewn
