I often wonder.....
when we were growing up as kids the rest of my family had bunnies dogs and cats.
My first pet was a gecko ..? ?
and from then on I’ve owned reptiles for the rest of my life !!!
for some reason they just seem to find ME???
And not for nothing ..but
why.... oh whyyyyyy!!!!.......
do I pick the two SLOWEST things on the face of the planet as pets ????
(The one thing I am NOT .... is slow...)
People always tell me to slow down.
Take my time..
I even speak fast?!!!!
I just can’t do it???
You’d have to tie me down in order for me to sit for more than an hour!!
I am ALWAYS about to explode when walking with my tortoise outside.
I am saying to her ..”come on.. come on....
Move yer tooochieee!!”
COME ON DAM IT!! I AM GONNA BE LATE!
?
Then when she looks up at me as if to say...
(Bugs bunny voice).....
“Aaaaahhhh——sshhaaat aaapppp!”
I get down on all fours and tell her I am sorry .. she comes before anything else.. she should take her time I’ll wait.. ?
She has me by the ....s.......... I guess??
Whahaha. You are the best. Next time I want the pic of you on all fours. ???

I couldn't handle a snail or slug because of the slime, ugh!!! But my thoughts are that everything on this earth has it's place in the great scheme of things even if it's just to be part of food chains.
I don't only want to be here as part of the food chain. Hopefully I have a more important role to play.?

Good afternoon/morning all.
More rain for us today.:(
I've been to the hospital to have my face dressing replaced again.
They are gradually 'sloughing' off the dead skin around the graft so will have a few more appointments before they're done with me yet,
I can't wait to give all my face a good wash!!!
It's 1 pm and Lola is just getting up - he must be a teenager.
I'm going to follow his example and stay indoors today.
Have a good Friday all!

i thought they are called snails when they have a shell?
A slug is just a long fat worm lookin’ thing..
Same family but a little different...
Still in all MINE is cute and not slimy in the least? Maybe he’s dehydrated?? ?
Yep here in the UK, Snails have shells and slugs are snails without shells.
