You know, it can be a jungle out there, so sometimes, you just have to put on your cool dude shades and keep going!
Okay, so I'm having a little too much fun with snapchat. I blame my daughters, after all, they introduced it to me.
You should never give someone a toy, and then expect them not to play with it. That's just mean.
It's like not taking advantage of a joke that is handed to you. When you come from a family in which "smart ass" is the first language, these "open doors" all but demand to be walked through. It's very tough, at times, to bite your tongue and withhold remarks your brain is screaming are inappropriate, but your funny bone is saying, "that is frickin' funny! Say it, say it!" You have to translate from you native tongue to something that won't put you on the receiving end of "those looks" which indicate that maybe you shouldn't be allowed in public.
Politicians, and certain celebrities, in particular, seem to take pride in opening these doors at lightning speed. I mean, Donald Trump pretending to be his own publicist in more than one interview? Kanye West.....well Kanye and pretty much everything he says in any interview.......it's bait, really.
Do they honestly expect the Seth Myers, Jimmy Fallons, and Stephen Colberts of the world not to walk through those wide open doors night after night?!
The disturbing part lies in the fact that one of these door openers is basically just a mouth, and the other wants to be leader of the free world. I'll let you decide which is which.

In the past few days...........
Was able to spend some time with some baby granddaughters...........
It's been another wonderfully busy, crazy week at the shop..........

Squeeze a grandbaby or two, or three, or four...................
Hopefully get some grass cut................
Write!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well that about does it for this long weekend. See you next time!
May you sip a coffee in the sun, kick back, and soak it in.
May you smell the sweetness that follows a rain, breathe it in.
May you invite opportunity, be open to change, bring it in.
May you discover peace, know it, attract it, pull it in.
May those who fill the news with overblown bravado, reign it in.
May those who walk through the open doors provided, play it in.
Until next time.........
