Awwww....thank you for that! I saw that lil cake, and said, "Oh yeah! Today is it!" 😆 Gettin' too old....lol Isn't that what everyone says? hehehe [URL=https://www.animatedimages.org/cat-thank-you-466.htm][IMG]https://www.animatedimages.org/data/media/466/animated-thank-you-image-0035.gif[/IMG][/URL]

Never! Haha! I'm a Lost boy...Yes part of Kiefers crew o.o-clears throat- There is no such thingy as "old" is Subeta 🌹

EDIT: You got a forum point while making a post! Bonus!

: I'm still drawing and writing. This month is traditionally the time when I participate in NaNoWriMo, the month-long challenge of writing a 50,000 work novel during the month of November. I've participated for 12 years in a row, and I've produced nearly 3 million words in that time. I have 4 nearly complete manuscripts, but I have nothing edited or submitted for publication. I decided to take this year off and concentrate on getting my first manuscript ready to submit to an agent and on to an editor for publication. So, yes...I'm still keeping up with my anthropomorphic tale of "The Glen Meadow Chronicles" staring all the woodland creatures of the Glen Meadow Watershed, including me. (giggle) You can see my Author's drawings of me over on his facebook page. He drew them in Ink this time.

: My author does a great job of helping with my stories. Sometimes he butts in on the Subeta Forums....but I am able to keep that to a minimum by growling at him.

When she growls at me it sounds like a balloon leaking air...

Not funny Mr.....Ok, so I'm small. At least when I leak air I don't clear a room...

Happy Birthday, my friend!! ❤

Old, and obsolete. I take it the wrong way, you're vintage. Like a rare brew of whiskey or a restored car.

[Edit] No assignments for this last chapter, just reading. Tomorrow has one major task, take my car to a dealership to undergo recall servicing. The two issues will take most of the day, so I'll go home on a bus. Finals are not comprehensive, just like last semester...

- thank you so much, my sweetest pal in all of paldom! hehehe ❤

- LOL 😆 I love it!! Thank you for that! ❤

Love your HA! I love the layering! (I wouldn't even have noticed the cig had I not seen it mentioned in one of your comments). "Sorry" I got you hooked on the gold accounts 😆

RE: We're on a third shift schedule these past few days. What turned you around?

Your HA is SO cute! I hope my daughter finds a wedding dress soon... hopefully tonight... We are going to look at 2 places.

and we welcome them! (the jokes) When she growls at me it sounds like a balloon leaking air.... hahaha

Yeah, I got the year bathhouse and have not stressed about it much after that. It was challenging!

Getting back to the "good ole stuff)

I didn't know you got a year on the bathhouse!

I dropped off my car at the dealership for the recall service, and walked from there to a bus terminal, two hours worth. My 3DS counted 9,908 steps when I got home a few minutes ago.

No need to change out, I may get a call to pick it up soon.

300, yup.

I missed why you dropped off your car, 2 hours is a long walk! I hope it wasn't raining. A short walk in the rain is nice but for me, a long wet walk is not. My son went on a 4 day walk with a friend and came home early (Sunday) because of the rain/mud conditions.

: I have a human friend who lives up here in Glen Meadow named Marc Wald. He's married to the the regional state game warden Bridget (O'Riley) Wald. In Bridget's single life, she would take any bet, even bets on subjects she was ignorant of. She loved betting. One day, while having drinks at the Skunk and Stoat Inn with Marc, one of Glen Meadow's infamous poachers approached Bridget and made a bet with her. "Hey Warden, I bet you a hundred bucks I can bite my left eye." "You mean Dollars, right Mr. Schmidt?" Bridget scrutinized the old reprobate, "'Cause I ain't betting with male deer. For a hundred dollars, I'll take yer bet." They shook hands on a hundred dollar bet and Schmidt proceeded to take out his false left eye and gently bit it before popping it back in place. Bridget was furious she had been suckered so easily. "Ah, Miss O'Riley, calm down. I'm a man what'll give ya a chance to earn back yer money." Schmidt took a sip of his beer and smacked his lips, "Fer double'er nuthin' I'll bet ya that I can bite my right eye." He took up his beer and tried to hide his grin. Bridget was a natural-born skeptic and she narrowed her eyes as she pondered this bet. Surely Schmidt had just made a foolish bet, he didn't walk into the Inn with a cane, he appeared to be able to see things, he couldn't possibly have two glass eyes. "Your on, I think you're trying to get me to back down and lose my hundred dollars." She stuck out her hand and they shook on the bet. after which, Schmidt took out his false teeth and bit his right eye.

Needless to say, now that Marc and Bridget are married and have a young family, She doesn't take bets.

Its two different issues, one about the catalytic converter, the other an airbag control circuit. They can't be done together, since parts need to be called in for the latter. My walk was cold but in full sun, and I haven't turned off my 3DS to continue counting. At this time it reads nearly 14,000 steps, an exceptional run this time. I sometimes average 5-6k.

I can hardly imagine the tale Miss Sinister will tell about two worlds colliding, no doubt she'll be dumbfounded by my 0th words. "What hand do you write with?"

[Edit]My version is just a a haiku.
[Br]She found me, I didn't
fight back. I don't know how to
make a story from it.

[URL=https://www.animatedimages.org/cat-waving-1645.htm][IMG]https://www.animatedimages.org/data/media/1645/animated-waving-image-0054.gif[/IMG][/URL] Just dropping by to say howdy!

Hai! From here it looks like a southpaw print.

Last shop of the month tomorrow, though I don't know if there is one before finals.

I was wondering if you would see that!! (southpaw) hehe I saw that, and squealed. LOL

Are you all back in class, or virtual?

We are very perceptive, I learn better seeing it done.

Class lectures are online, only shop is in person. For now very few courses allow physical attendance.

I know it is an inconvenience to say the least, not being able to attend as planned. That being said, I sure am glad they are at least trying to keep folks safe.

I used to learn best by seeing - now it is by doing. Perhaps it is a little of both tho, come to think of it. I don't remember things well anymore, so doing it myself makes it a lot easier to remember in the future. lol

Learning by doing is how I can cook, by surviving my own experiments over the years.

Gonna need flour to make some cookies, the old stuff has bugs...

weevils!! Those lil buggars get in flour so easily. I have been keeping my flour in the freezer, except for the small amount I keep in a canister (with a screw top lid) in the cupboard. It has really helped keep those lil thieves out!

Thanks for the tip, we almost never use what we have.

While rummaging I also found the cactus fruit I kept for another batch of sorbet, the friend I made it for has told me his nieces and nephew loved it.
