What did you say Tyebe? I said you’re getting to be a stink in the mud. You don’t go out and play. You stink around the house and sleep or talk with mom. You mean,,,STICK…in the mud? No, I’m sure it’s *stink*.
Well what am I supposed to do? Run out in the cold and sit in the snow till my butt’s freezing? That’s how you catch mice. Yes, but I don’t want a mouse. They taste yucky and are here in the spring and summer. Do you like the taste, Tyebe? Well, yes. They make my mouth water. Really?
Wouldn’t you like some salmon instead. Wow, salmon! Of course I would but I can’t catch a salmon in the Lane. I checked the puddles and there are NO fish to be seen. Are you sure…..have you waited patiently for one to appear like you do mice? No. Next time you’re bored outside look for a salmon. They’re hard to find but you could be one of the few lucky ones to find a fish in the puddles of the Lane. Really!! For sure. I can’t wait to try it. A fish awaits.
Shoko it’s time for a meezerism from you. You should do one for us meezers and peeps. You mean like Ann McGuffy of McGuffy’s Reader. Ann started SPARKs so peeps would have a positive idea to start their week. This SPARK is for both peeps and cats.
“When you throw dirt, you lose ground.” This meezerism is shared by a Texan. Yes, they have meezeers in Texas.

TYEBE…..ROYAL BLUE

I rarely find fish in puddles around here but I sure do find worms! Ever tried a worm Tyebe? We’ll see you girls for “Flavours” on Wednesday…..if we can think of something colorful that is.

Lucy: Your meme made Mom laugh. But we don’t get it. Good one on Tyebe, Shoko. I’ll have to try that next time Xexe starts bugging me.
Xena: Hi Tyebe. You look pretty with your pink bling. Hi Shoko. I wonder if you lose ground when you dig to China? I think maybe as long as you keep in one big pile as you dig, you’ll know where it is and won’t lose any.

Lucy and Xena, You don’t lose ant dirt digging for china cause the dirt raises with China….does that make sense. The little mouse is getting mouth to mouth and will be playing shortly

You won’t find any salmon, but you’ll be out of the house and occupied for a very long time. I think that was the goal here. Don’t fall for it.
I’ll be over when the colorful cookies are ready.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. My best to your wonderful mom. ♥

Don’t tell Tyebe, Sandee. Salmon catching in puddles is a lot like Snipe hunting. No one has seen a trapped Snipe.

You son of a….Canadian mouser. mol…..had you wondering there didn’t I. Tyebe is out poking about in the Lane. It is very mild so the ice has melted off the puddles. So far no fish have come flopping in here.
