Oh gee, thanks for the ear worm. I'll return the favour with one with a similar rhythm. A friend claims this is the TSA motto.

You can't see London,
You can't see France,
Until we see your underpants.


So true!
 
Today is a total rest day seeing as my sciatica is acting up something fierce as is the arthritis in my right hand.

So, I am in my recliner playing with the Moto 360 watch my hubby surprised me with this morning. It came in the mail while I was sleeping so he was able to get it charging before I woke up. He is amazing and wonderful. :in_love:
 
Ugh...another fire in SoCal. :( I just talked to my daughter, they live down there in Santa Clarita. My son-in-law is one of the several hundred firefighters out there right now trying to contain this fire.
 
Yikes, Cheryl! Hope all goes well, and they get the fires under control.

I escorted a huge spider, the likes of which I'd never seen before, from inside to outside into the hydrangea. It was leopard spotted and slow moving, and looked nothing like a wolf spider. The abdomen was the size of a small grape. I was able to pick it up with a paper towel.
 
Thanks Dawg and Addie. :)

Wow, Dawg! That was one big spider. Glad you got him (or her) outside where it belongs. :ermm::ohmy:

I haven't seen a spider in years. But don't send me any. I am happy with the way things are right now.

My in-laws used to pay me to go to their house and kill the spiders. All of them were terrified of them. One day my sister-in-law called me. When I arrived, she was sobbing. The bush just outside her door was covered with spiders. She needed to go shopping and couldn't get past the bush. She was afraid they would jump on her. What I couldn't kill, I knocked off the bush and off the went to find another place to hang out. When I lived in Texas, I would tell my husband there was a large water bug or roach on the wall. He would slap it with his hand. If I said there was a spider, he was out the door and would be gone for hours. Then he would call before he would come home and wanted to make sure the spider was dead and gone. :angel:
 
There is a rule at my house about killing spiders. Since I often live with a cat or cats, the rule is you may only intentionally kill a spider if you eat it. I like my house rules to apply to everyone. ;)

That's a good rule. Hopefully Stirling hasn't had to eat many spiders!
 
Fixin' to go over to my daughter's to feed their cat and dogs, and spend a little time with them. Daughter, SIL, and grandson are on vacation this week, having the time of their life. Major league baseball, Universal Studios, shopping, going to the beach, whale watching, and this evening is an ocean sunset cruise. :wub: :)
 
I tried to go shopping for groceries and wine. There was a major gas leak and traffic was rerouted. It was a mess. The grocery store and the liquor store were closed. I guess they were too close to the leak.

;) They live in California and went to Florida to see Universal Studios and other sites that are just in their backyard? Don't tell me they also are going to Disney World when they have Disney Land right at home. Disney World is so, so pricey. You need to own the BOA to go there.

:LOL: Reminds me of a fare that Pirate had in his cab once. They were going to the Falcon Pier to catch their cruise boat. They were going to catch the cruise to Canada on the east coast. Where were they from? You guessed it. Western Canada. Pirate has never gotten over that one. :angel:

What make think they went to Florida? There's a Universal Studio in Cal. There's an ocean with sunsets. There are whales.

The West Coast of Canada is gorgeous, but so is the East coast, in a completely different way. There is also a whole lot more coast on the east side of Canada than on the west side.

That's true in the United States, too. The climates are different, the landscape is different, the history is different, etc. DH and I once visited my sister in Temecula, then drove up the Pacific Coast Highway to my dad's in Salinas. The coastline there is nothing like the East Coast coastline. The mountain cliffs meeting with the ocean are spectacular.

What's to get over?
 
:LOL: Yes, Addie, like Taxy said, my daughter and family are enjoying all those fun activities here in SoCal. They're staying at my older daughters in Valencia, that's less than a 2 hr. drive from here.

Universal Studios is in Hollywood, a 1/2 hr. drive further south. Anaheim Stadium is another 1/2 hour further. The beach is right there too, so basically, it's all in pretty close proximity.

It's been 'active' at my daughter's house. 4 little boys having a blast together, ages 2, 4, 5, and 6. :shock: :w00t2::LOL:


And yes, GG, the Pacific Coast Highway is breathtaking! All of our coastlines in North America have something beautiful about them to offer.
