Happy TT!
Hey Cindy! It was great seeing you at my blog after all this time. :) Thanks for stopping by! The name of the blue paint I used in our dining room is 'Raindrop' from Sherwin Williams. I love it! Always feels so cheerful. Thanks for asking, and again, thanks for dropping by and leaving your nice thoughts. Blessings, Debra
LOL. These are all good.

Oh my goodness, I spewed my lemon water. I've wanted to write about something like this but didn't have the guts! LOVE it!!!!
And if we could come up with an idea to truly get rid of it forever, we'd be very very rich!
Very funny, love them!

Great TT. Soo.... funny. Thanks for making me smile today. Happy TT and thanks for stopping by.
This is hilarious! I never thought I would read "codpiece" on your blog...but the pigs are flying! Excellent post, C!
Funniest thing is that this came right after your "Blog Mission Statement" post - I'm certainly entertained!
This list was fun, Cindy, thanks. I think of all they got done WITHOUT spam!
That was a pretty funny take on Thursday Thirteen. I hope you can visit mine that I posted this week.
Have a good rest of the weekend.
Cindy,
Number one had to be the best! All of them were good though. Thanks for the post.
Be well,
Randy
