National Respect Day. That is something that is sorely lacking these days
National Cheeseburger Day
Air Force Birthday
National HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
National Aging Awareness Day. Now that is something many of us are very aware of every day. Okay, so I don’t feel old yet, but seeing my siblings starting to turn 70 (my sister Mary, turned 71 this year), and seeing my 2 oldest brothers had their 50-year high school reunion last weekend (they were in the same class because John was held back a year because he has trouble reading due to dyslexia), I am very aware that I’m getting older too.
From bbear’s pictures yesterday – “Spiders are our friends” – well, I don’t hate spiders, but I don’t love them either. They don’t scare me, but they still creep me out. And every now and then when I eat my lunch outside at work, I am joined by a spider. One of the “joys” of the great outdoors. This happened again a couple days ago. I was eating lunch outside (what little my stomach would allow since I was not 100% over that nasty stomach bug) when I saw the spider crawling around on the beach blanket I use out there. One of the things I enjoy about eating outside is that I can take off my shoes and socks and I can wiggle my toes. I really hate wearing shoes! So the spider went and climbed around on my shoes. I don’t kill the spiders that join me (it happens maybe 3-4 times a summer, tops) but I’d prefer they would not visit me at all.
Regarding my post yesterday about the tilers. Would you accept this work?

When I called Home Depot to complain, the tilers came out this morning and instead of fixing it, they scraped all the tile they installed (and I paid for) off the wall into a bucket and left. I went to Home Depot with my remaining tiles and told them what happened and they gave me a full refund for all the tile and labor. You got to love them.
Man, talk about a tough crowd. This Side Up might want to exit stage right before those dogs start throwing tomatoes. On another note, saw a swallow and a rabbit while out walking today.

Those pooches look like they’re about to toss something at the stage ;-)

The dogs don’t get it. And neither do I.

He might want to check out the back door. He is close to becoming This-Side-Down. …………… In his grave.

And don’t come back and ask me who that is. I’m old, okay!

The dogs are not amused. Actually, I tend to agree with them.

I really hope This-Side-Up knows where the exit is. The dogs don’t look happy at all.

Every kitty gets his 15 minutes on stage, and it’s always a special strip when the dogs are included.
