Good morning, Lizards!

Happy Mother’s Day to the moms! I gave mom a big box of her favorite chocolate last week, and today I will be mowing her yard. I’m not looking forward to the yard work but I will get to pet her silly dog, so it’s not all bad. She likes to hang out with me in the yard, watching me work while she lays in the shade. Smart girl!

Yesterday was cloudy and cool, with misty rain off and on all day. Not a good day for yard work, so I got a few things done around the house between long periods of being lazy. I tried a different cleaning product on my shower, and while it did a fantastic job, it appears to be setting off my dyshidrotic eczema. I am almost out of the hand cream I was prescribed, so I hope the doc will just call in a refill instead of making me come in for a visit. I have a feeling I’ll have to go for a visit, because my luck isn’t generally that good! I definitely need to get better about remembering to wear gloves while doing dishes and cleaning.

I’m off to make breakfast and get my rear in gear for the day. I hope you all have a fantastic Sunday! :wub:

Good morning. Still raining this morning, but looks to be tapering off. I'm headed to my daughter's today to watch Brody tomorrow morning. So, tonight she got a sitter and is taking me to dinner. How nice, just the 2 of us mommies.

Random thoughts. (Janet left me alone, that's dangerous).

Participation in sports should be based on your 'birth' gender. Except if you are female and want to compete in a male sport. Then if 'you' make the cut you can participate.

Abortion is not birth control. It should not widely be available or practiced. Completely banned...no. There are conditions and situation where abortion can/should be considered and if the woman decides yes in these rare situations (rape, pregnancy threatens woman's life, this types of situations) then a qualified Dr can perform the procedure.

The USA should send a squadron of F18's to Ukraine and wipe the Russians in Ukraine off the face of the earth. Then figure out a way to 'off' Putin too. I'm sure bin Laden will share some of those virgins with him.

Biden should get his head out of his behind. Look around and start fixing the problems the average American is facing. Not going after some dream ideals. Are the ideals worth it? Yes in the long run but you can't F-up peoples lives to obtain them.

Drill baby, drill. It's OK to drill for oil someplace else in the world and buy it from someone else but we can't drill in our own backyard. Yeah, that makes sense.

We've got to pursue electric vehicles but slow down and plan ahead for a.) where's the energy coming from to charge them and b.) where the heck are we going to dispose of all that lithium.

Close the damn border. I've got nothing against Mexican's coming into the US legally. I've got nothing against Mexicans being here. They can be industrious and hard working. Our landscaper, Mexican, works two jobs 7 days a week to make life better for his wife and children. A full time job with a commercial landscaper and weekends are filled with side jobs. How many Americans just sit back and life off the dole because work is beneath their dignity or they're just too damn lazy to get out there.

Oh and ... Happy Mother's Day to all you Mothers out there.

Just for the record, I disagree completely, with the possible exception of the third trimester.

I was under the misconception going at 3:45 to Outback would have been less congested. I entertained the group in the car while we waited 50 minutes for their text announcing my table was ready. Thoroughly enjoyed the Bloomin' Onion as I entertained everyone and the waiter for the over an hour it took to get my thin, over-cooked, and dry Prime Rib. Yes, the one that had me drooling during the night. Or that could have once again been my Aquaman pillow. I am not sure.

I hope every mother here had a wonderful day either from spending time with their children or remembering loved ones.

Morning, all.

Overnight rain, surprise, surprise... said to be scattered today. We'll see.

for the over an hour it took to get my thin, over-cooked, and dry Prime Rib. Yes, the one that had me drooling during the night.

Bummer. :(

Is that why they call them "flyers"?

We have a very sunny 62 going to maybe 65. Tomorrow, sunny and 69.
That sounds wonderful too. Supposed to get up to 68 here. After all the rain we had last week, this almost makes me feel like doing something really productive. I hope it passes quickly.

    Now that I have a little time, I'm going to formally reply .. no one should be surprised .. ;)

    It's either all or none .. there can be no litmus test of gender as it relates to making the cut to play or not to play .. there are big females / there are small males .. if a 5'4" male that weighs 120 pounds and is trans, what reason would there be to exclude them from female sports .. ?? I think I'm using the right gender term .. they, them, etc ..
