Three's Company is on while I'm typing this post.  Remember when Jack got his own restaurant, "Jack's Bistro"?  Well, it is opening night and so far, no one has showed up.  Poor Jack.  

Photo Challenge Day 14

Slowly buy surely, I'm making progress.

I can't remember if I told you (and I'm too lazy to look back) but, Dad's pulse has been pretty low lately.  Last week at the Dr's office it was 44.  Dr. Cedarholm told us it should never be under 50 and we were to monitor it.  He even showed me how to take Dad's pulse to make sure his heart is in rhythm.  For the past few days, it has been teetering from 48-53 so when my office phone rang today and I saw Dad's name pop up on the Caller ID, I assumed it was Mom saying, "I'm calling the doctor" or "We are on our way to the ER".  Instead she said, "We are going to visit Aunt Sara".  Aunt Sara and Uncle John live about an hour away in Chesterfield, South Carolina. I was so happy that they were feeling good enough to make the trip.  Sidebar:  They had a great trip.  

Photo Challenge Day 13

My husband works from home.  It is 8:00 pm and he is hard at work...still in his pj's from last night...with his 2 trusty assistants.  

Here's my question of the day:

If you had a boat, what would you name it?  

I will have to give this one some thought.  All I can think of is a few years ago when they decided to let the people of Great Britain name a submarine and the public chose "Boaty McBoatface".  Unfortunately, it was overruled and the sub was eventually named RRS Sir David Attenborough.  I don't know why but I absolutely love Boaty McBoatface and I might have to go with that. Wait, aren't boats supposed to be named after women?  I don't know Sir David but, I doubt he was a woman.  

Photo Challenge Day 12

Here's a picture I something I hate.

I see this stupid vine every time I walk to Mom and Dad's house.  It taunts me.  I've asked God, "Why God, Why?' I'm sure He had a reason for creating Poison Ivy but, I can't imagine what it could be.

I just saw a funny question, "What would a world populated by clones of you be like?"  I'm going to try to answer this.  A world populated by Julie clones would be a world of niceness.  Everyone would be really nice to each other but, that's basically it.  There would be no scientific breakthroughs;  nothing would get built.  It would be a very happy and kind place but, no one would be smart enough to accomplish anything.  There would be a lot of really good helpers but no leader.  Everyone would worry what people thought and wonder if they were doing things right.  All of the animals would be treated with kindness but, poison ivy would be be irradiated somehow.  Wait, none of the clones would be smart enough to know how to do that.  In summary, thank God there is not a world populated by Julie clones.  One is more than enough!  

What would a world populated by clones of YOU be like?  

Photo Challenge Day 11

Too bad I'm not doing an exercise challenge because Day 11 would be pretty good for me!  Here's today's photo:

When I was in the process of sitting down on my daybed to write this post, Balto jumped up and got my spot.  The funny thing is that before this week, he never sat on this daybed???!!!  Now, he has taken it over.  So, I took this picture.  Here is another one. 

Photo Challenge Day 10

We Like Turtles just happened to be the category that Alex Trebek was introducing when I snapped this photo.
