The young woman next to her nudged her and said,”Hey, look at that gorgeous guy over there.” Jeannie turned her head and said, “That’s the doctor I’m seeing today.” “Ooh, lucky you,” the woman laughed. “Yeah, I’m all a quiver. He’s doing my colonoscopy.”

Hi, Everybody, it’s me, Jack.
I am doing Tuesday Chatter today.
I had a kinda scary morning today.
I had an appointment.
It started with this
A cage! With the door locked!
I was not happy!
I would not look at Mama
no matter how sweet she talked.
Teddy told me that when you go in the cage and the door is locked
it means you are going in a car to see the vet.
Last time I went to the vet wasn’t so bad,
but still, this cage thing was uncalled for.
Well, we got to the vet place and I was freed from the cage
so I could walk around in the exam room.
When a man came in I ran out the door.
I just wanted to explore.
Mama doesn’t let me out of the apartment except on the balcony
and from the little I can see when she opens
the front door the hallways look very interesting.
Anyway, back in the exam room.
The vet, he was a very nice guy, put me on a table.
I wasn’t too sure about it.
But it was okay.
I was weighed (perfect 10 pounds)
and poked and scoped and kneaded and
SHOT TWICE!
But I was a good boy.
The vet knew what he was doing and did it very well.
He said I was a perfectly beautiful cat.
This guy really knows his cats.
He knows perfection when he sees it!
I have had four days off in a row.
This what my to-do list looked like.
I got it all done!
Okay, there was nothing on the list. But I did think about having a list.
Then I thought some more and knew I wouldn’t really do anything
that was on a list and that would bother me.
So, to keep me relaxed, in a good mood and happy
I didn’t make a list.
I did do things.
I took walks, read, played games on my Kindle,
groomed and played with the cats, did blog stuff,
watched movies and Netflix series, ate and took naps.
I was busy!
It was a great four days.
I am joining Eugenia’s Tuesday Chatter today.

Have you ever been accused of being a ubberneck?
I have.
By my father when I was a kid.
He made it sound like it was an awful thing,
something to be embarrassed about
if you are caught doing it.
Well, I looked it up in the dictionary.
It’s not so awful.
To ubberneck
is to look about or stare inquisitively with great curiosity.
That’s not so bad.
ubberneck also refers to tourists and sightseers.
Not a bad thing.
Then there is the definition;
ubberneckers are people who stare and gawk,
like spectators in a courtroom or at an accident.
That’s understandable but not nice.
And ubberneckers stare or gape,
especially in a naive or foolish manner.
I don’t like that at all.
But some days there is nothing else
to do so ubbernecking happens.
Or you see something that is interesting,
curious, odd and you can’t help but
stare, gape, gawk,
ubberneck.

Have you ever been told that you have lost your
arbles?
I have!
But those that have said so are the ones
who have lost their arbles.
I may be a bit ditzy but I know
where my arbles are at all times.
Well, to be honest, I sometimes lose track
of some of them but I always know where
at least one arble is at all times.
I may not always know what’s going on around me.
But even at my ditziest there is always that
one arble rolling around in my head
keeping me aware of what’s going on in there.
Sometimes it drives me crazy banging around in my head.
But it is important to hang onto that one arble because
without it…
honestly, it’s better not think about that.
That’s my post for the letter
