Wait up, guys, I just stepped in another pile of dog poop! I hate these robes!
And the sandals! And I hate costume parties even more!

  1. Dog Poop and Sandals, I just had a memory of growing up and heading to the river behind our place for a Swim. We'd have to pass through the Neighbour's Cow Pasture, talk about tip~toeing through the Tulips. Oh Well, we'd be washing off our foot in the river.

    This was good Sylvia,

  6. I’m shocked! Bathroom talk from such a refined lady.
    Okay here is my 140 character (not word) or less story.
    “Just because he had to sit on the floor, he cries. He is so unmonk like, I hope he gets de-monked.”
    Sob...”Nobody values my sensitive side.” 116/140

  23. Good one! (Stepping in it seems an occupational hazard. My worst memory of it was while wearing flipflops in Malaysia: into a big cow pie. Ouch!!)

    Have a great week, Sylvia.

  24. LOL! That would be terrible, wouldn't it? Great job this week.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Sure enough,, everybody seemed to be stepping in it! LOL!

    I am not certain "great minds think alike" should be applied to the act of stepping in dog poop!

  26. You know, those outfits look neither comfortable nor helpful...unless you need extra material to wipe off your sandal. ;)
