I think there's a few versions - that was the first I found.
We need Linda back!!
Yes we do! And I miss CarolM sooo much too. She did some hilarious ones and I loved her Monday sum ups of us. They say laughter is the best medicine and I know that's true And a few others. Ben02 and I'm sure I don't have that posting name right. EllieMay and so many others. 🤗

Morning! Time to get up! Even if you are through the leaves! (Afrikaans expression, meaning to be confused)View attachment 343060
Sunny wasn't having it, he was most likely still sleepy🤣🤣🤣
I'm going to try and remember that expression so people can look at me strangely here in the US.😉 They already do cause half the time I do wake up like that anyway. I'll just say "sorry I'm through the leaves" to give them something to think about 🙃

Well... it was such a misty, dark, and rainy day but turned out so hilarious 😂. I guess the starlings (the little foreign glutenous birdies in my yard) have finally paid me back a bit. I was just sitting here and noticed the flock was next door, taking turns instead of fighting over a piece of bread I think. It was so cute and they were all being so polite and stuff 🤗🌈 then one took it's turn 😜 and flew off with all of the prize 🤣 the only thing I'm upset about is my camera wasn't up and running.

A bit of rain this morning quickly erased by sunshine then clouds. But it was 20 degrees warmer than yesterday morning so, some kayaking was in order. A TON of turtles out….possibly the most ive ever seen in one morning. Way more than 100.

Take a look!

Me too. She's in my utube history and I also have her in my subscriptions so I listen to her when I'm thinking of her. I like her videos with her and her tortoises too. Her utube channel must be still out there. And it always cheers me up to watch it.

Good morning/afternoon all.
We've had some drizzly rain the last couple of days, but it's much warmer and the sun has made an appearance today.
Lola has been very brave and spent quite some time outside basking and even made it onto his grassy patch for a nibble of the clover. 🎉🥳
Lovely to see him being a tortoise:<3:
I hope you're all having a good Wednesday - does the US have a long Easter weekend break with 2 bank holidays coming up?

Good morning everyone, the trainer at the gym introduced weights to my workout yesterday. Though I am happy to finally lifting weights. I am extra sore today, it's funny how being sore from exercising. I can accept but pains from my accident will mess with my head and keep me in bed at times.
Keep at it Ray… you hold a special place in this world for all your family & friends.

I thought you were from the UK?! Must've thought about the Lancaster in the UK

Uh... I thought Easter was last weekend? I always remember it is on the 2'nd weekend of April. So I was a bit confused when we went to the shops and saw nothing was marked off on the Easter products
Here in SA we have Friday off and Monday, Monday is called Family day, and it's a holiday.
(Here by us it's law that if a holiday falls on a weekend we have the Monday automatically off)
See @Cathie G, I was so confused this week you could say I fell through the whole damn canopy🤣🤣🤣

You were just through the leaves 😂 like me. I've been in what we call brain fog all day. My neighbor mowed yesterday and that always does that to me.🤗
