Who’s the Boss?
Who’s the Boss? Our pets or us? Yes, they give us joy, company, affection, and life would be dull without them, but we do feed and house them. Let’s face it, we’re suckers for our pets. 🙂
There’s no shirking of duties when Sage is around.
“Make him share, Dad, or I will!”
Total anarchy!!
Thank you Lord, for windows, get away cars, catnip, and bedroom doors that can be closed when you’re asleep!

Wacky Word Quiz
Happy Saturday! The weekend is here and we’ve been freezing our keisters up here, in the attic of North America. Now, to go with that mug of coffee, I’ve brought you another round of the wacky word quiz. So, yay! Don’t worry, it’s short. 🙂
Those who’ve been following my blog for awhile, you know what to do. Well, not that it’s overly complicated. Quite simple really.
Each word will have four possible definitions, of course, only one will be right. You can put your guesses in the ‘Comments’ section, or not, and I’ll be back to reveal (Ta-da!) the correct one in my next blog post.
As before, I’ll ask each of you to practice ‘Googlestraint” (made that one up myself, my Mom is so proud . . . um, I think.) In plain English, please do not ask Google or any other ‘know-it-all’ virtual entity.
Here we go!

B: small clumps of porridge that stick to the sides of a pot or bowl
C: antiquated term for gout, as in, “Sally! I’ve got the gubbins again.”
