We had ourselves a big ole lightning storm tonite! Flashing across the sky with jagged bolts everywhere. Haven’t seen that for some years. I hope they didn’t start fires or cause damage. The wind is blowing hard enough that people’s security lights keep coming on.
National Simplicity Day. National Simplicity Day honors transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau. The day advocates a life of simplicity and recognizes the life of Thoreau.Henry David Thoreau (July 12, 1817 – May 6, 1862) lived his life as many things including an author, naturalist, philosopher, and historian. He was also known to be a tax resister, abolitionist, development critic, and surveyor. His book, Walden, is a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings. In our fast, ever-increasingly busy lifestyles, the observance encourages stepping back and looking at ways to simplify our lives. It’s an opportunity to declutter and eliminate the unnecessary burdens that weigh us down. Even taking a few moments to tune into nature helps us to refocus and find balance.
That doesn’t sound like a very nice holiday. On another note, saw four rabbits, seven robins, a chipmunk, a dragonfly, and two butterflies while out walking today.
I have been on gocomics literally for YEARS now! I have come to “know” and KNOW a few people here. A couple of us talk on the phone. Yes, you can still talk to a person on the phone :-D :-DI have lost some friends here. They are missed greatly! Especially Carmy, Linda, tcar, and some other sweet friends.

Remembering Linda “Granny” Dean (Wet & Soggy), today (January 10 1952 – July 12 2014)…
For those of us who remember Linda, we all still miss her.

Thank You, Graham, for honouring Linda with the above comic. And, in light of what is currently happening in our own worlds, a timely message.
For those who did not have the privilege or opportunity to meet Linda here at Ten Cats, you missed “meeting” a lovely lady.

All Dogs are NOT Dunderheads. Sheesh! Look who’s talking.

I guess my dog can celebrate “National Different Colored Eyes Day”. One eye is brown and the other half brown and half kind of a bluish-white.

I think Dunderhead just might apply to that sweet confused little pooch.
