Settin' and thinkin' a bit

"Sometimes I sits and thinks,

and sometimes I just sits."

That little pearl of wisdom was on one of those "motivational" posters that they put up in high school classrooms to.....I dunno....make you think (?).  It made me think alright---just how stupid that is.  But it made me and my friend Angela laugh all those years ago and it still makes me laugh today. Isn't that weird that I remember that from high school?  Must make all those teachers proud. Criminy.

Anywho.....

Today is my 4th year anniversary of when I started blogging.  It began as an exercise in my creative writing class and I was hooked.   And after 1300+ posts and I think that I have no more--silly things, stupid things, funny things still happen in my house and in my life.......and I have more stories to tell.  I never thought I'd have 4 years of crap to write about.

Who would have thought that wearing a pair of waders in the pond could be so much fun?  Or sprinkling coyote pee around the yard could cost so darn much?  Who knew that frogs could possibly be interesting or you'd be reading about the comings and goings of snails?  Heck, the Duck and Wheel has brought some weird into the lives of a few folks.....and they don't even seem to mind! Go figure.

So, today, as I sits and thinks, I'd like to thank all of you who stick by the Duck and Wheel with String and the cast of characters who make it what it is (or isn't) everyday.  We wouldn't have as much fun if you weren't here to add to the silliness.   Thanks for being the pallies and making these past 4 years fly by, dear friends. 

Now, let's go find some more fun.........
