![]() Artist: Walt Disney Just Blathering Away by Linda L. Dowd There's nothing of import in this mind of mine today. ~ No pearls of wisdom, postulations, hypotheses, nor any of my druthers. It's a 'go-with-the-flow', sort of 'wait-and-see', kinda day. Just taking a break from the merry-go-round of days always following days. I can do that, you know! After all, I AM my own employer ~ and I'm the best boss that I've ever had! Only the best for my employees! ~ Me, myself & I !!! ...Now, where was I? Oh, yes, I was talking about nothing! Don't suppose I'd get into trouble with that! ~ Won't offend the critics or those with pickles firmly ensconced within! I certainly couldn't put my foot in my mouth 'cause it is zipped de doo dah today! And besides, I ain't sayin' nuttin'! Ooops! Did I just say somethin'? Sorry, didn't mean to offend. That brings me to another point ~ I don't have any! ~ At least not at this time because just for today, I'm only making much ado about nuttin'! ~ and dems the facts folks! ~ * ~ [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (01-24-2009 06:08 PM).] |

Hello Angel of Earth I can do that, you know! After all, I AM my own employer ~ and I'm the best boss that I've ever had If everyone realized this, think how many would feel that peaceful feeling when taking care of business. A light-hearted but serious poem. I like the way you think!! |

what a relaxing day to let the mind wander and the pen flow here and there and everywhere. Or Have a day of venting. You pour out the angry words. Then go back and make it look nice for other eyes to see. Relax girl and enjoy the day. Hugs BonBon ![]() |

Linda, You can blather with the best of them and a most wonderful blather this is indeed. It's down right ducky! I love the attitude in that little duck girl - and I love the attitude in you. Love, Alison |

Pickles? Musta been the sour kind. heheheh! I think bread and butter pickles are the kind we self-employed probably like most, with lotsa sweetness and vinegar! Sigh... I'd toss 'em all out for ambrosia. ![]() |
