How About A Naked Romp Through The Jungle?

July 26, 2013

Good morning.  It's rather cool and wet here in New England.  The cool feels nice, and the grass and gardens enjoy the rain.  My bunny family isn't out running around in the yard, so I guess they are not so fond of the rain.  Joe saw at least three baby bunnies playing in the yard a few days ago.  As long they leave the tomatoes alone, they are welcome to stay.

The temps will be back up in the 80's beginning tomorrow, so pretty soon Joe and I can start picking fresh tomatoes from the garden.  Mmmm, mmm, mmm.  We didn't plant any veggies last year, and I missed them.  I'm hoping that next year, we can plant squash and cucumbers again.  It all depends on when the Spring weather begins.

My friend Kyra started my day off with another beautiful layout of my favorite little guy.  Gosh, I could look at his precious mug all day.   He definitely has me mesmerized!

I see from my emails that more and more of our fun forums are disappearing.  Sad to say, the folks who build a these forums don't seem to know why their forums are dying.  It all started when folks started posting their forums, scraps, challenges, etc. on Facebook.  Next, they also had everything posted on Twitter, followed every other new media place that came along. 

Soon, they were moving their forum scrap stores out of the forums and over to places like Etsy.  Freebies and challenges were being posted on all these outside media places instead of in the forum.  So now, technically, there is really no reason to visit the forum anymore.  And, if you are like me, you just don't have time to be funning from Facebook to Tweeter and everywhere else to find what you need or keep up with what is happening.  Hence, interest is lost and the forums die out.  Sad.

Do you like pigs?   My daughter Deanne finds some of the cutest photos of pigs on the internet.  Here's one that I think is adorable.  This little piggy is just loving his nap in the sun.

Does anyone follow all the new reality shows on TV?   I came across one quite by accident, and was really amazed that it was actually being allowed as entertainment on TV.  This one is called "Naked and Afraid" (or vice versa).  Two naked people, one male and one female strangers to each other, are dropped off at some god forsaken jungle somewhere in the world with no clothes, no food and no water.  The challenge is to stay alive for twenty one days. 

Of course, they are accompanied by a camera crew who are all fully clothed.   Now, if the contestants have to be naked, I don't think it's right that the camera crew gets to keep their clothes on.  Actually, I think that the TV stations are stooping pretty low into the garbage can to come up with new ideas for entertaining programs.   If you are interested though, it is on Discovery Channel.

I'm thinking that it's time for this old fuddy duddy to get busy and start another load of laundry.  Till tomorrow, Y'all be safe and have a fabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.
