Step up warriors! It’s time to have a new round in the War Against Whining …

Break out your gratitude guns and start firing!

1. I am grateful to be getting over this cold … finally.
2. Grateful for cough drops
3. Grateful that cough drops don’t actually explode, like a twitter friend suggested, when you accidently swallow one whole.
4. Grateful to live in Florida where the weather is absolutely gorgeous lately
5. Grateful for Apple products: Rufus - my work laptop, Brutus - my home iMac and Big Brother - my iPhone
6. Grateful for this blog and *you*… yes … even those of you praying for my destruction.
7. Grateful for my home … its really pretty groovy.
8. Grateful for the dog I am probably going to get … soon (any suggestions? I am thinking Yorkie/Pom mix named Edith)
9. Grateful for living in the GREAT UNITED STATES! … woot.
10. AND today I am a grateful for a loving God who sees all my mess and loves me anyway.

Alright warriors, get to grateful! Come up with at least five to stay in the battle and 10 to totally win in today’s onslaught. And if you absolutely must … strike a sassy pose.

Mandatory Relocation Anyone?

I went to the bank last week and didn’t even notice this little dude until I was going 40mph. He hung on for a full two miles. Even though I was very impressed with his car surfing abilities, I bet all the people behind me weren’t very happy. I sped up until he started flipping around. I then slowed down so he wouldn’t go flying off. I stayed at the non-flipping around speed until I got to the bank. He scampered off once I came to a stop.

What can I say? I like ze little lizards.

Aliens in Creation - Just Go Play Outside

“What’s that smell Mommy?” Doris Day looking lady looks down at Little Billy and says, “why honey … that’s what we call fresh air …”

… A recent conversation brought a troubling development into focus. A man told me that he had bought a home with some measure of reluctance, fearing that the location of the house so near to a neighborhood playground would mean too much noise. As it turns out, he needn’t have worried at all. Very few children visit the playground at all.

The troubling development is that many children never play outside. They prefer to play computer games, surf the Internet, or update their Facebook pages. Their parents are increasingly afraid to let them play outside, scared by the constant barrage of news stories about crimes against children. These children and teenagers are accustomed to air conditioning, sophisticated entertainments, and lack of physical activity. They are aliens in the outside world.

Froggie, Sheila E. And Loose Ends

So, since I have a Summer Guest (Perry) I keep my bedroom door closed at night. I woke up this morning and it was a bit cold. I opened the bedroom door to pop around the corner to turn the temp up. I am full on Chewbacca hair, in my PJ’s and legally blind since I had not put in my contacts yet. As soon as I open the door I see a large black blob right at the threshold. Perry can be a prankster so I thought he might have left some silly trinket that would explode or something if you stepped on it.

I got down on my hands and knees to get a better look… I am truly blind without my contacts.

Wasn’t no stinkin’ practical joke. A frog face just stared back at me. I only screamed like a four year old little girl internally (I am getting better) and shot straight up in the air like Hover Cat. ::: door slam :::

Almost immediately I was like, “It’s only a stupid frog. I hope it doesn’t hop off cause I have to get it out of here.” I yelled at Perry to get the frog out and it turns out Perry … who is 9 feet tall and a Dude’s Dude is petrified of frogs.

So, I get ready, put on my clothes and open the door. The Frog hasn’t moved at all.

Don’t you find that odd?
