'Hump-Day' it is called when you are part of the
9-5ish world, or in my case
the 8:30 to whateverish world.
But today I am home with a touch of something
and feeling wonky, but not the 'Willy Wonka' kind of
happy chocolate state of being.
nope.
Kind of like a sledge hammer hit me
and in doing so inserted an odd cough.
So while I sip my home made tonic of
Ginger Ale, EmerGen-C, CranRaspberry
I am thinking about two things I miss (slightly)
at the DOD
one: Spike the amazing wonder fish
AKA: Crowntailed Beta Fighting Fish
two: my super, duper, Cadillac of staplers
my shiny red Swingline that I purchsed
during one of my routine supply orders for the office.
Becoming tired of the stapler coming up missing
I decided that it would be hard to abscond with a
RED stapler as it would be easy to spot
if it suddenly appeared on some other desk
Seriously!!...
I even added the little silver bow at Christmas
a little festive embellishment that I kept
now well beyond Christmas.
I smile every time I use that baby.
It's a work hound.
Oh, and I have a new obsession
(yup, that's what I need, another obsession)
Peacocks.
Doesn't that make you slightly shake your head
and make a weird grimace face that displays
the thought:
"huh?? where did THAT come from?"
I KNOW!!!
or, rather, I DON'T KNOW!
I am totally intrigued by these creatures
The males = stunning and rather
over the top flamboyant
and the crazy, crazy noise they make!
Me...the one who cannot stand the sound of Mourning Doves
Well, like some males, they are pretty to look at but
you pray they don't open their mouth and ruin it.
Yes, I said that.
Blame it on the 'tonic' I'm drinking.
Stay well

Sorry you are under the weather...but you made me laugh.
My Grandson had a beta named Spike or it was mine and he named it...I can't remember. Mine was a centerpiece at my nieces wedding...and we had him for years.
A friend of mine has a problem with peacocks in her yard...a lot of them. I think it's funny.
And...yes I would love to have some Moonflower seeds if you have spares. Do you need any morning glories?
Take care my friend and drink lots of that magic tonic!

Hope you are feeling better, but you haven't lost your sense of humor. What a fun post and love, love the peacock.

Hi Rella, thanks so much for the compliment on my Petit Doll! I just signed up for the Goddess & Poet class and have watched the videos but haven't really started yet. Look forward to seeing what you draw for the class!
Hope you feel better soon...
Hugs!
