The nerve of some to interrupt the hibernation.

For a while, I lived next door to a woman that got a ride from her mother to go to work at 5 am. She would park right outside our apartment. Instead of going in, she would lay on the horn. Until the morning my kids were sick and I needed sleep from being up late with them. She didn't like what I had to say.

My mom used to do that vvhen I vvas a kid... drove me nuts.

She never did it at 5am, though.

I vvas glad vvhen she got a cell phone and could just call vvhatever friend's house I vvas at.

A little thought and curtesy was all I was asking for. You'd have thought I was threatening war by the response I got. But it also worked.

War is good because you can listen to this when it's over.

Winning after watching PBS Craft in America first new season episode entitled "play".

I was in the kitchen cooking dinner and Karen managed to spill some down her front before I'd even finished. I said that's got to be some kind of world record and she said, nope I've done it before.

I found myself almost run down by a buck. I don't mean in my car. Only able to side-step the deer because of super guick reflexes that left brown spots on my shorts

That's happened to me on a woodland trail. I heard what was the sound of thunder getting closer. I just moved in time as 2 deer broke through the bush at full gallop just inches behind me. Scary.

Winning Monday,

The insurance covers the damage to the shopping trolley and provides a courtesy car while it's being fixed.

Win win

Also sitting having coffee #2 of the day while the bread bakes. Another win.

And i suppose you could call the temperature rising above negative a win too. Still chilly at 6c but hey, it's winter.

What until it eats what you wrote.

All the time, I'm used to entering text several times.

Ducks often travel in packs too. They'll run you down, rip up your homework, make fun of your mom, and try to get Elmer Fudd to shoot you.

Duck season.

Oh, deer. I thought @Stonetree said "duck". Ah well, ducks are still terrible.

Something like that happened to me, but it was goats. And they weren't at a run, but there were 5 or 6 of them that got on the trail right in front of my bike.

And there was a badger once. Didn't come out on the trail, but was right at the edge rooting around.

Someone's in the kitchen with...Karen?

You live a wild and exciting life that I can only dream of.

Wait, mine is that wild and exciting too.

Never mind.

Duck season.

I used to keep ducks (and chicken and geese (and a couple of goats))
The ducks were wonderful, each wirh their own personalities. Mostly good natured but we had one that hated cameras and would attack the camera, frightened the poo out of the person holding the camera.
The geese were great guard dogs, have been known to see off guard dogs.

Something like that happened to me, but it was goats.

Goats like to eat the cuffs of wooden sweaters.

It's 48°F outside. More rain in the forecast. Expected high to get up to 60°F today.

Taking a mental health day from work. It's for my co-workers' mental health, not mine.

 

[Dan From Smithville]

I awoke to 30°F and everything covered in a sheet of ice. I've only seen two vehicles pass by in the last couple of hours and they were driving really slowly. Plow is going by now.

At least there are no ducks.

Gone south for the winter.

They don't paddle well in ice.

I should go south for the winter. Ducks got that right.

@ChristineM do you remember Shubee from Topix?
