Some Off Time

Posted on August 20, 2012 by Mike

I am planning to step away from blogging for the next week or so and thought I would let one of my new friends tell you all about it. This is a mini burro of few words……But he always means what he says. Stay well my friends.

    Great time. While it is nice to spend some time by myself (with friends in Michigan) I always miss my wife and don’t like to be without her. Lot’s of pictures harvested.

Hi Mike, I just read a post on a blog “Is Blogging Addictive?” … so I’m glad you are taking time off… we’ll all be here when you come back. It’s always good to get away, and to make our lives fit into what is creative and productive. Have a great time…

Heck, I didn’t miss you since I didn’t know you were gone! 🙂 Takes awhile for old folks to figure out what the hell is going on. The farewell is priceless! Glad I clicked “previous”. I’m trying to catch a donkey who lives on a street that I travel every day. He is a calculating little devil. He knows my car … I know he does since he turns his butt toward it every time he sees me approach! 🙂

    I am the donkey whisperer. Fly me out there, pay me big money, and I’ll get the donkey to come to you and even smile. Furthermore, for the same money I will get him to carry your groceries and we’ll take him on a picnic where he will carry our lunch with that same silly ass (get it?) smile.

    Mike, you make me laugh. I read your replies for entertainment! You should do stand-up, you know. Seriously, you are in your element when you are being funny and ironic. You made me think “donkey” in the first place so it’s your fault that I have a donkey problem. 🙂 Thanks for cheering me up reliably.
