Maybe the sloth thought he heard everyone saying, "Graze."

Hahaha! So many laughs. Thanks, Sharron. What a great way to start the day. 🤣 It reminds me of an ad I once saw, can’t remember where. At the end of the ad it read, “We quantitee your catistaction.”

Catisfaction! Brilliant. I am going to write another bit about disgruntled Raymond ( our family feline). He can't get no catisfaction! ( By the way, if someone can be disgruntled, can they also be gruntled? Just wondering...)

Haha, I love it. If Raymond wants to use “gruntled” in his next hit, he should be given the green light.

Watch out, Rolling Stones!

(But in all seriousness, Raymond needs to write his own version of this song!) 🐱 🎶

That's hilarious, Sharron. I love malapropisms too.

I guess you and I are like "Two peas in a pot."

Right on. Give peas a chance! Whirled peas, that's what I am talking about.

HYSTERICAL!!!! I almost sprayed my coffee on the keyboard. CAn't pick a favorite, but I'm also curious about the fun sequence. Sounds risque' to me. Didn't know they could offer that sort of thing on ebay. If writ right I guess anything goes. ))))

On ebay, some words are misspelled so often, the misspelling becomes the key word for searching! eg If you want to find a blouse with sequins, you have to search sequence blouse. It is insane... Glad it made you laugh. We sure can use a few laughs.

Okay! Super! Speaking of eBay, here is what I do in my real life. You know, when I am not writing... https://www.ebay.com/str/therookandtheraven Not sure you can access my eBay shop, but give it a try. Twenty-two years at it.

Glorious things, Sharron! Thanks for the link - in fact I've lurked in your eBay shop before - it may have been after I'd read your post about Burano lace.

Twenty-two years - that's brilliant! 😊
