Gentle Readers . . . and Maxwell,
I'm sorry, but I'm too tired for more of the inquisition. I've spent most of the last two days putting potting soil and plants in the pots that surround my deck.
I lifted things I shouldn't lift and contorted my body in ways it didn't want to go. I have mosquito bites on my eczema.
Go ahead. Burn me at the stake.
Or wait until I feel better, and I promise to finish answering the fifty questions.
Fishducky sent me this cartoon. I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks, fishducky!
Infinities of love,
Janie Junebug
Rest up! See you when you have recovered. I totally understand overdoing it. *hugs*
ReplyDeleteI'm going to sit all day. I can look at my new plants and smile, while I scratch my mosquito bites.
DeleteHi Janie - Oh gosh I can visualise a few cruellas here .. and I'm just about to write something about the Spanish Inquisition .. real sort! Mosquitoes and eczema .. not a good thought .. and I love Fishducky's Grammar Police dog .. cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteCheers, Charming Hilary!
DeleteHello, Janie Junebug!
ReplyDeleteIt's me, Señor Shecky Shady aka "The Spanish Imposition."
I'm so sorry you overdid it and are pooped and itchy.
Take two Willy Dunne Wooters and call me in the morning.
I hope you feel better soon, dear friend.
I'll be fine. I think.
DeleteI don't think anyone would fault you for taking a break from the Inquisition. Also, there's no rule that you have to post every day. I hope that you like/at least don't hate the pickleope drawing I did of you. If you don't like it, please lie to me as it is probably the last pickling of a reader I'll ever create.
ReplyDeleteI haven't looked yet, but I'm 99.99999% sure I'll love it.
DeletePoor you. I would have been stressing about those questions at the beginning already. Your poor body. Anything gardening related intimidates me. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThe questions don't bring me any stress.I enjoy them. I'm just achy.
DeleteI missed the last bonus day of fall yesterday, and no I need to go shift a couple of very cold pots.
ReplyDeleteThe last bonus day of fall? It's 82 here. It's gorgeous.
DeleteYou're allowed to be tired, but not burned. Rest, relax and pot those plants! We will wait patiently for your witty return.
ReplyDeleteIt has been an exhausting week for me, too - I feel ya, Janie!
I'm not burned--just bitten and achy.
DeleteAnd I am not allowed to be burned because that would mean I'm a heretic, and I swear I'm not.
DeleteHahahhaha - the cartoon - not your body. Feel better Janie! Love, dc
ReplyDeleteFishducky is so cool.
DeleteI'm just getting ready to take all of the plants off of the deck. Ahhh, winter is fast approaching. Trade ya?
ReplyDeleteNo, thank you.
DeleteMosquito bites on your eczema? Yikes. How about some mosquito repellent? Love the cartoon of the grammar police. I need to tackle the flower pots, as some are getting pretty straggly looking. I have one geranium that must have special genes...blooming like crazy!
ReplyDeleteMosquito repellent does nothing for me. Mosquitoes adore me.
DeleteLOL! That actually never used to bother me--the preposition aspect. Ah, ignorance is bliss, eh?
ReplyDeleteGet feeling better and take some rest! Here have some cheese while you kick your feet up.
Unleashing the Dreamworld
I don't know if ignorance is bliss. Ignorance usually ends up making me feel stupid.
DeleteRight ON... Love it.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you, Peaches.
DeleteLOL! I like to break rules, and sometimes I end my sentences with prepositions! I enjoyed the answers to your questions yesterday and your sense of humor! And I like the empowering second choice for the name of your blog. I used to read a shorter picture book version of "The Little House in the Big Woods" to my second and third graders. You sound like you need some TLC! Treat yourself today!
ReplyDeleteI shall treat myself. I have a piece of red velvet cake in the refrigerator.
DeleteOh lucky you! Enjoy!
DeleteGlad you liked the cartoon!!
ReplyDeleteWhen have I not liked something you sent to me?
DeleteI hope you feel better soon. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI need a yard elf.
DeleteI'm loving the inquisition posts, but no burning at the stake. We'll wait, oh yes we will.
ReplyDeleteCool cartoon, by the way. ;)
Cool cartoon thanks to fishducky.
DeleteFifty questions is a lot of questions. :-\
ReplyDeleteYes, and I know better than to pass them on to you.
DeleteI love any grammar cartoon, but I must say, this is one rule in which I'm not always compliant.
ReplyDelete-andi
I'm not always compliant in which this rule when I'm talking or writing casually.
DeleteRest is good for the soul, or at least your feet. Hope you feel better.
