Friday Funnies


Hi,

The morning weather was a steady dose of light rain.  It was actually very pleasant.  In the afternoon the clouds gave way to ‘scattered sunshine’.  We may got more rain this evening.

The ‘Zany Day’ song was “Dr. Funkenstein” by Parliament https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GqGzp8TtEI      For ‘Old School Friday’ we’ll dip back to the 60’s with this favorite:  “Tonight you’re mine completely.  You give your love so sweetly.  Tonight the light of love is in your eyes, but __ __ __ __ __?”  Hint:  It’s by a ‘Girl Group’ asking the musical question of the ages.

Natcha and JaiDee have a unique relationship.  They know how to play together.  We can be in the yard with him, trying to get him to run around or chase a ball and he just wanders, doing his thing.  When Natcha runs onto the front lawn, she’s screaming and waving her arms and JaiDee springs into action.  She can throw the soccer ball and he’ll chase it, when she runs at him, he gets excited.  Of course, the fact that she can really run makes a big difference.  We stand in awe, watching her giving him a workout.  It really mellows him, which makes everybody happy.

We returned to The Wanderer today.  When we arrived, we were the only patrons and it gave us a chance to have conversations with the staff before the rush.  There is a big white cat that is one of the residents and he sits and sometimes just stares at you.  He and JaiDee have had several encounters and they’ve all beenthe same.  They just stare at each other.  JaiDee will pull a little, curious dog that he is, but he doesn’t lunge.  It’s strange, because in our yard he becomes possessed when he sees the neighbor’s cat.  Maybe it’s the territorial thing.  

Today’s photo is a selfie in the car featuring JaiDee, who is now 11 months old, and Lisa.  Oh yeah, Lisa held the camera (555).


Things are changing here.  The restrictions are being relaxed and some feel OK and some don’t.  This morning we went to the bank and realized that most of the staff were not wearing masks.  Not sure if it was a policy change or part of the lightened government rules.  We kept ours on and the official helping Lisa kept her's on as well.  It has been proven that uniformity and consistency can make a difference.  Hmm.

On our way to the walking place this evening, the light drizzle that fell all morning, returned.  As we turned on to the street we noticed lots of cars streaming out.  People must have thought the drizzle was a prelude to rain.  There were very few ‘walkers’ on the course when we started.  We did see some of JaiDee’s friends, but the road was basically empty and so was the playground/workout area.  

Have a Wonderful WeekEnd.   It’s time for the ‘Funnies’.   Continue to Stay Safe.

                           Peace,
                                     Danny
