Yesterday was the Chicago Marathon and there were over 40,000 runners! The men's and women's winners were both from Kenya. It was a really nice day weather-wise, sunny, a little windy with temperatures in the 50s F. The overall Chicago Marathon record time was missed by less than one minute. I read in the paper that there were participants who had run many marathons before including some of the world's most famous ones, and a lot of people running their first one ever whose goal was just to finish it.
Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.
I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!
Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

It's time to get BOO'd! I sent out a bunch to get us started. Happy fall, northern hemisphere!

Some people just "don't get it" - or just don't care. Probably both.
It makes me want to cry - or scream. Probably both.![]()

I just realized that today is a real crappy anniversary date. It was one year ago today that I was driving to NC, with the intention of making that my home. Thank goodness I came to my senses, and returned here on January 24th - which was a celebration in itself, and also Myndi's birthday. I'm pleading temporary insanity in that whole fiasco. Wish I could just erase those 3 months and pretend that they never happened, because they still haunt me.....................

Sorry to hear that. Take comfort in the fact that they are in the past, and now you are where you an Wolfie and the kitties are meant to be, and can be happy!
My random though (one that I have had many times over the years): it is a good thing I do not drink alcohol, as I can drink down a bottle of water or a mug of tea so fast it is gone before I know it!
(And no, I am not diabetic!)
