The wine makes no difference, it’s the peaceful time that brings out the laughing snorts... if I miss it, Cinder’s got my back!!! However, I am half a glass in?
Well my phone's charging. See you when. The evening is usually when I can. My peaceful time also. Then I usually end up snorting cause I'm reading all this.

Hi Everybody. Glad to see everybody seems to be alive and well. I finally finished and when moving it to my front garden I found this little guy inside it. So I took him out and moved him to the water bowl inside the tortoise enclosure.
Wow...and you got to have a little house toad too.☺ I've heard mine are about but I haven't seen one myself yet.

Well here’s a toad story for you...

First, let me start by saying that I am blind as a bat. I wear contacts daily and glasses if not.. I can only see clearly for about 2 feet in front of me and beyond that is blurry shades of color.

So I woke around 3 am and got up to make my normal house rounds and chocolate fix. I made my pit stop in the guest bathroom to take care of business without waking others. Cinders doggy door is in the guest bathroom. Anyhow, I don’t grab my glasses or turn on any lights as this is pretty routine for me.. so in the midst of my pit stop , I notice some movement on the floor... and it’s coming towards me.. fast forward to instant heart failure and rapid scrambling while business comes to an immediate stop.., I finally work up the courage to ease close enough so I can see what the hell it is.. GIANT TOAD... had come in by way of Cinders door.. I scooped him up and put him right back out same door.. and then I put the slide in!!!!

I love you!!! That sounds too much like me. Once upon a time, true story, a toad came in my home. Then s/he tried to sit on my lap or something. I ended up standing on the kitchen counter to get away from the dang toad.hahaha

It's funny how many alias countrys and such Lancaster has. I sewed a mask today and dang if it didn't show up AGAIN.
Nice mask,I always wanted to travel route 66 out of Chicago and see some of Americana history. Not sure how much of the old route is still there.
