Fact a Day 2022 3 hours, 6 minutes ago4/1 – You are meant to stop the April Fools jokes at 12pm!
Apparently the April Fools rules have been in place since the 1700s! You should only be doing April Fools jokes until 12pm.
No one is too sure why, but some say it’s bad luck! -

Raz, thank you. Teddy was at the campfire early, and said he was on his way here, but he probably took a hike first and lost track of time.

I’m OK! 3 hours, 43 minutes agoLast night was awful! Us kitties got grabbed and shoved into carriers. I had got in with Garfield. Mom cannot get 3 carriers and 3 people in her car.

The name comes from the Greek word pyr, “fire,” because pyrite emits sparks when struck by metal. Pyrite is called fool’s gold; to the novice its colour is deceptively similar to that of a gold nugget. Nodules…[Read more]

Sounds like your family did not have a good night. I hope that Matt’s back is feeling better and that Hope’s stomach is settled down. I think Mother Nature is mad at everyone this year. The weather is really crazy.

My goodness Jake…too much going on at your place. We hope Matt feels better very soon and Hope as well.
Paws crossed that you don’t get weather that’s too wicked.

What’s Up?
UPDATE! Expect additional delays…. my mom has just been admitted into hospice care (a huge relief). Although she’s not in any discomfort or pain, she is refusing to eat and is now under 100 lbs. and sleeps nearly all the time. Hospice ensures her comfort. She’s 95 yrs. old, so I know she’s ready and just wants to go. I say the prayer for a happy death for her.
