Loulou, I wish you could tell mama why you often pee next to the john instead of using it as you always have so well. Well I think we may have reached a turning point in my previous agility to jump onto the john and do my thing, so to speak. Unfortunately, mama has been finding, shall we say, kitty liquid...

Now, how did I do this? Glorious weather in our little village. It’s as if summer jumped ahead of spring! Of course for me it’s heaven – sunspots abound, not to mention a bit more energy now that the cold has taken a vacation. Mama’s new easy peasy leftover recipe coming up....

Well, today, I’m succumbing, whatever that is, to reprinting ticklesome tidbits from mama’s group here in our little village, called Jailbirds, begun on WhatsApp by a very good-humored Englishman and joined by 8 or 10 others, including mama, who wish to have a good laugh...
