That metal thing is a hammock, but the cloth hasn't been taken out of the garage yet on account of all the rain... 😋   It's a good indication of what type of humour I aim for at home... 😇

There *may* be a fourth one that was released last year, but I haven't seen it yet, so I don't know how valid the claim of a fourth film is... 😇

Thanks for being here. 😃   I do not yet have a snippet of doodles to share today because someone *aggressively looks at Zemi* sat on my lap so adorably this morning that I couldn't move to the table to draw before leaving for work. Perhaps I can get some done tonight. 😁

Fun fact:  I stole this from an ad from Spreadshirt, so it does exist.  I have never ordered from them, but I can recommend this very similar shirt from SnorgTees.  I have ordered a few shirts from them and probably will order again.  Quality and fit are very nice, prices reasonable, etc.

I've tried a bit with this before, and have some camping body whipes which help keep things from getting too bad, but I seem to run into a lot of the same mental roadblocks with them   Yesterday was a perfect example. I went for a 30 minute walk between work and home. It was lovely, but I was tired, and wanted to rest first, knowing I had plenty of time for a quick shower later.   Later comes. I took a shower yesterday, I'm not that dirty. So the shower can be quick It's too late now. Don't want to go to bed with wet hair. You have a hair clip to keep it out of the way. Just be careful washing your face and it'll be fine. It's too cold! You have control of the thermostat! Just switch the heater back on for a few minutes.    I overcame my opposition yesterday; kind of felt like outsmarting myself. Took a quick shower, kept my hair dry, and felt better for it.   I have a sticky note on my bathroom door reminding me that I'll be happy I got in the shower, but it always seems to be a fight.

It is mandatory this time of year. Things need to be observed.     Comrade, this is going to present a problem when the revolution comes.

Such envy. Totally would if one were near me. I have DVDs and everything. (That I have not yet done, so...)   But also:   I mean, this. Although if you're strictly prohibited from practicing... maybe? I mean, be fair, DR, it's just one little thing and who could resist and if it counts as a daily walk, it's not technically more things, just a syncopated version of old things...  

Mohawk lawn!   LOL.
