My son had his paintball party today and man it looks fun!! I want an adult party there sometime!

I would need all the protective gear though because the welts aren't pretty. My daughter took a few good hits.

We played that all the time when my boys where younger . It's fun but it hurts . I've had some nasty bruises from paint balls . My buddy and I would paint the back window of each others truck to start a war . It got to be look out the window before walking outside . It sucks to get shot out of the blue .

It's from Cameroon. They probably also have an ad selling puppies someplace, because if you'll notice, their aldabra tortoises have received their shots, are well trained and play with the children. All they did was change the type of dog to "aldabra".

Good Sunday Morning to all you Forum chatters!!! It's going to be a great day...laundry, wash kitchen floor, wash fingerprints off the walls and doors - did you know that I couldn't find a store anywhere that still sells Spic and Span? That's great for washing walls. So I looked online and the only places listed that sell it are on the east coast. I wonder what happened.

I've got a bad case of the lazies today. So far all I've accomplished it to add water, soap and clothes to the washing machine. And there it sits. And here I sit.

But the sun is shining, so maybe if I ever get my act together, I may get something done outside. I still have a bunch of leaves to rake up and put in the Manouria yard for nesting material.

having plans for the day sounds like a good idea until you realize you have to put on pants and leave the house. Well Society says you have to put on pants but you know me always the contrary

Good to know I'm not the only one that hangs around the house naked everyday.

I've been lied to ever since I was a little kid and I would go up into a tall tall building I was always told never to throw pennies off the roof because it was fall and hurt someone. Now I know the awful truth no matter how you throw a penny from it can I gain enough velocity to hurt someone nothing in this crazy world makes sense anymore

There's a pair of little Black Phoebes nesting someplace near my house.

The male sits in the tree by my front door and cheeps. They're such a neat little bird. And not real afraid of me either. A couple years ago they built a nest under the eaves right above my back door. Their nest is made out of mud and hair. They raised two babies that year. Then the next year she added onto the original nest and laid eggs, but a hawk or some other big bird swooped in and ate the eggs. They never came back to that spot. It was kind of interesting that a bird would have known about the nest because it was up under the eaves with a facia along one side, and pretty invisible from the roof or from the air. The bigger bird must have been watching the female fly to the nest.

Ho Hum.

Guess I'd better go bring up a couple wheelbarrow loads of firewood to the front porch before it rains again.
