Happy Anniversary!! And Sandie, I loved the dog cartoons best of all. I think our son's dog is so happy and relaxed at our home because she had to keep out of the way of little kids when she was home. :-)
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BELATED ANNIVERSARY. I have to tell you my favorite is the dog in curlers. LOVED IT.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary Sandie.
ReplyDeleteNice laughs in morning this Friday.
Hugs to you.
Good morning, sweet friend! Happy belated anniversary to you! :-) I've seen the story about the dog nap before, but it is so sweet to be reminded again. :-)
ReplyDeleteThinking about the dog in curlers...
When I worked at Sears, there was a lady that came into the store one day wearing her pajamas and a robe, house slippers, and an eye mask on top of her head. No joke!
Have been praying for you and thinking about you. Hope you have a nice weekend. hugs♥
Awww to the dog w/the note. That's sweet. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy 40 years to you and your husband!!
Oh that dog story is so cute. A very happy belated anniversary, but let us call this anniversary month and allow you to keep right on celebrating!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post honey. It made me smile all the way through.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you had a fabulous anniversary too. Forty years is a nice start.
Have a fabulous day and weekend. Big hugs to you and tons of scritches to Disco. ♥♥♥
I love the napping dog! And Happy Anniversary!!! I have been thinking about you although I don't come to my blog very often these days!
ReplyDeleteI missed your anniversary- I hope you had a fabulous one! You are in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! Have a great weekend! Sheila
ReplyDeleteWell Sandie!! A very happy belated Anniversary!! Hope that your Mother's Day was EXTRA, EXTRA Special!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the dog that comes to visit for a nap!! But he always goes back :-}}Lovely Orchid!! Hope it's yours!!
Guess which one I liked the best? Batman with Catwoman. Does that surprise you? I know my kids will enjoy that one too.
ReplyDeleteLove that dog story. My friend Kim had a dog wander into her yard with a plastic dish in his mouth. He stopped in front of her and laid it down. She put some water in it and called the number on the tag. The neighbor came and got him - he was one of three dogs and was probably feeling overlooked.
ReplyDeleteAnd I was in an antique shop in Madison, Georgia where there is a black shop cat. The owner told me he kept coming to her house and she would take him home - about two miles away. He apparently chose her to be his new home - his had three children, a couple of dogs and I think there was a crying baby, too. She finally offered to keep him for good. :)
I hope you are doing well, I have the date saved and am praying.I know in my heart that all will be well. you will be much healthier!!
ReplyDeleteI've missed you! Love your Fridays! We're finally in Cary! About two weeks now. :)
ReplyDeletehugs,
Marie
A belated happy anniversary to you and your hubby. I hope you had a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteI love the napping dog story. Sweet.
Happy weekend!
Love you my sweet friend, always.
ReplyDeleteI love the dog nap, the cell phone dying and the reservations at the mental hospital. Good Sandie.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your anniversary! Wow, what a blessed achievement! Hope you did something really special to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteThis was a fun Friday indeed. I think I loved the story about the dog coming over for a nap the best. So cute.
And, might I just add, my family owns a condo at the "Cuckoo Like Cocoa Nuts" complex. They cater to those who are crazy as loons, but love each other deeply. C'mon over!
GOD BLESS!
Happy Mother's Day & Happy Anniversary & Have a Beautiful Weekend, Friend.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwww, Sandie...
ReplyDeleteHow could that anniversary have slipped by me? CONGRATULATIONS.
It is a commendable thing to have made it through 40 years of marriage. A lot of young people today don't bother to work out the problems----divorce is rampant.
I hope you and your honey have many more years of marriage...the longer it is, the deeper it becomes.
Take care and God bless you both and all your family, Sandie. Susan
p.s. Loved the one about reserving a family suite in the mental institution. ha hahhahaha Funny.
Dear Sandie, Happy 40th Anniversary!!
ReplyDeleteI love these little cartoons and quotes. They are not only uplifting they are very, very true!
I hope you are doing well. I am praying and praying.
blessings, Catherine xo
I did enjoy this post thank you
ReplyDeleteLove the email with the visiting, sleeping dog!!! Happy Anniversary, you Spring chicken you!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on that 40th anniversary. How nice you got a double celebration. I had to copy that quote at the beginning. You'll probably see it later on in one of my posts. It's so true God is there all around us and with us each step we take. Hope you have a fantastic Friday!
ReplyDelete40 years that is a long time Happy Anniversary,
ReplyDeleteas the beer fairy says you only get 25 for murder.
Merle............
Love the family one! Happy Anny and I hope you're doing well:@)
ReplyDeleteLoved the story about the sleeping dog and the cat woman one!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!
Hugs,
Angela
Happy late anniversary. Been missing your goodies.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 40 years! You are just trailing us by 7 months. Thank you for the laughs - I loved, loved, loved the dog story and will send it to my daughter-in-law with four children.
ReplyDeleteLove Fridays! Hope you are doing well. I'm home for a couple of weeks! hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteLove the dog in the roller going to Walmart! Love the one about the phone that died. Funny mug too! Batman and Cat Woman are pretty funny too....
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed weekend. Debby
May 11th - a good day to get married!! 40 years is a big deal - Ruby, I think!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated anniversary Sandie and husband! 40 years is a great!! Too cute with the dog with curlers and the dog taking a nap elsewhere. I like how you did this one and then put things going on in your life interspersed in it. I will be seeing that movie if I can soon hopefully!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend Sandie; I hope you do something fun for yourself!
betty
Congratulations on your wedding anniversary!
ReplyDeletePraying that things are going well. I will remember June 11th with a prayer for you.

Well, I was smiling the whole way through and I LOVED that dog story about the house with 6 kids! lol Happy Anniversary, Sandie!!! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary to you! Thanks for always making my day.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Patti
I hope you had a wonderful 40th Anniversary, Sandie....quite the milestone.
ReplyDeleteYou brought back memories of when my now late in-laws celebrated theirs. My father-in-law and I headed off to the nearest regional town, Gympie (my ex and I were living at the Sunshine Coast at the time) to visit jewellers to buy a ruby as a gift for my mother-in-law for their 40th Anniversary.
Father and I made up some elaborate story of where we were off to, because it wasn't a regular thing that he and I did...go off shopping together.
Anyway, we succeeded in our subterfuge.
As we were wandering up Gympie's main street TV news cameras were everywhere! I grabbed Father and we hid in a store until they'd disappeared. That's all we needed...to have been caught on camera to appear on the evening news. It might have been had to explain! lol
I loved all of them as always..but the napping dog story was the best. Have had seven children, 13 and 14 months apart, and I often wondered where our dog, Susie, was in the afternoon..thought she was meeting the children on their way home from school..but now I wonder if she was somewhere sneaking in a nap at some quiet home! Darned dog! I should have thought of that!! :)
ReplyDeleteDid I miss your anniversary?? Shoot! I hope it was a happy, happy, happy one!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Anniversary wishes. I think I said these wishes before...but ...who cares. Everyone can use good wishes every so often!!!! May 1 we were married 49 years. I think we are all of the old group of "no divorce"! Hope you are keeping busy but still getting adequate rest. Still perhaps surgey on june 11th?
ReplyDeleteLove the dog with the curlers, too cute.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated anniversary
Happy 40th, Sandie!!!!!! So--you celebrated both Mother's Day and your Anniversary... NEAT!!!!
ReplyDeleteLoved the HEBREWS cup.....
Loved the one about healing too..... SO true!!!!!
Hugs,
Betsy
Happy belated anniversary to you and your husband. I wonder if any of the couples marrying now will make it that far. I loved the mental hospital family suite -- we have said that for years! And I loved the dog napping, oh and the catwoman. Actually, I loved them all as always. Praying for you and thinking of you daily. Is June 11th your surgery? Keep thinking positive. This is going to be over before you know it.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this lovely post, a post I needed right now. The dog needing a nap was adorable and putting away the phone a real good idea. It just occurred to me how very difficult it must be to be a mom of teenagers and their phones these days. Hope you are doing OK and taking good care of you. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated anniversary to you and your husband. 40 years is a long time!
ReplyDeleteLove all your funnies as usual. I always think that when I walk around Walmart someone is going to take a photo of me and make it into some meme that everyone laughs at!
I had fun! Jerry said I would, but I ain't about to tell him that he was right! (LOL?)
ReplyDeleteHi Sandie, Happy Belated Anniversary to you! Hope you had a special time with Mother's Day, too! I love the dog story. lol! And the dog in curlers is a hoot, too! Take care and stay strong. We are all thinking of you and praying! I believe you will be just fine!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cheryl
LOVED THE CATWOMEN CARTOON!!
ReplyDeleteOh, happiest year ahead for you and hubby!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated anniversary to you and your husband!
ReplyDeleteWill keep you in my prayers. Enjoy your Sunday and hugs to you
Hebrews..... ha ha ha ha ha. I liked that one!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the dog grabbing a nap and mom wanting to know if she can come to. Left Arm can not be raised above my shoulder for 30 days.
ReplyDeleteHey Sandie!
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Anniversary! :D I enjoyed this post...so cute!
Have a wonderful Sunday my sweet friend.
Toodles,
Tammy<3

Happy belated Anniversary. Sorry I missed it. I loved this post, but always enjoy them all. You manage to say so much while saying so little; a great trick. lol
ReplyDeletePraying for you dear heart. Always.
Hi Sandie, sweet dear friend,
ReplyDeleteI know I said Happy Anniversary
and Happy Mother's Day to you
in your previous post.
I can say it again though...
Happy Anniversary, Sandie & hubby!
I am also sending my healing prayers on your way, my friend.
Rainy days won't last forever.
You will see much brighter days.
I love the one with the dog coming
to your yard for a sleeping rest.
I love dogs, cats, horses, animals!
Thank you, Sandie for sharing your
loving ways with us!
May God pour His blessings on you
at all times, especially now!
Blessings & Prayers,
Starry.

Happy bleated anniversary! Have a good day!
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary. 40 years seems long but the 26th day of July we will celebrate 46 years of marriage. Not always easy but more good than bad. Take care Sandie and my thoughts are with you.
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Anniversary! I pray that God blesses the two of you with many, many more!
ReplyDeleteI loved this whole post, but I have to say that my favorite thing was the quote at the end. That was just what I needed to hear tonight. Medicine!
Happy Anniversary to you and your hubs. 40 years deserves a trophy for both of you!
ReplyDeleteLove these little snippets, especially the doggie nap story!
Happy Thursday,
Jen
