Great day in the mornin

Great day in the mornin Possum's! That's just it! I should be playin Possum layin in bed! But nnnnoooooo! I'm up early drinkin my coffee. I guess I should not be goin ta bed so early in the evenin. Makes ya get up early the next mornin and before sunrise! The rooster is still asleep! Folks might start ta think I'm the early bird that got the worm or somethin. All I got was bloodshot eyes and coffee for blood. Did someone forget ta turn on the sun? I think the moon is just on overtime. And it's been full and all! Makes my poly-fil shimmer and shake! Didn't do nothin for my button eyes either.

So what's a Sock Monkey supose ta do this early in the mornin? Pretend your just comin in from a rough night? Stumble a little,pretend ta fall on your face? Or sit and contemplate a $30,000,000.00 merger? Fancy knitted dress sock,mergin into The Sock Drawer! Perhaps I should go and buy stocks in the Rockford red heeled sock corp.! Ya end up doin weird stuff when ya get up this early. Not natural. The scary part bout the whole thing? I'm sittin here thinkin bout it.

Perhaps I should go into the kitchen and play hop-scotch on the kitchen ceramic tile. Remember the old metal Jax? I could throw them at the wall as Nija weapons. They would stick in the wall if ya threw them hard enough. Use my Slinky to tie up Raggedy Ann. She won't mind. I think she secretly likes it. They should call it the Slinky-kinky!

Maybe shoot my 8 ball out of a cannon at Barbies Malibu mansion. Bitch got it to good. She needs a little trouble in her life. Do ya know what is a scary thought ta me? How are we goin to explain Barbie to bein's from other worlds,when and if they come here? Their gonna look at us and tell us we buried our planet with all the plastic! Barbie is not green at all! She got the dream house and I got the dream projects! Can we talk people?! I like to pop their heads off and toss it around. Livin the dream girl! Are ya feelin the love people?

Yea through yonder window I see the dawn approachin! Dawn! This is where I throw up my hands and walk away. Bubba

4 Day weekend!!!!!!

It's the Labor Day weekend sale! Just kiddin Possum's! Hope ya'll got many wonderful plans for the up and comin Holiday weekend. Red,white and blue and a little bit of rollin around in the dirt. Freedom stuff,Labor and a few sparklely stars are on the agenda. Big *poof* and all! Down at the Piggley Wiggley ya'll might even find a pound or two of ground beef on sale. Fire up the grill,cause I'm celebrating Labor! Bubba's Sock Drawer staff will be mighty hungry.

We'll meet down at the ball field where the company tent will be provided for those of ya'll Whom need to get out of the sun for a minute. Washtubs filled with ice and loaded with beer! Colas will be provided as well. Keep all arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times. Do not exit the vehicle until we come to a complete stop! Emergency exits here,here and here. Fire extingishers in the rear. (fireworks off in the distance)

So tell me again. Why am I celebratin Labor? Why can't I celebrate bein kicked back? Pop a cold one and unbutton my pants. I am American folkart ya know. Born and raised in the arts and craft period. So there ya go!

I want to celebrate out on the back pourch smokin a stoggy with a shot of whiskey with the boys. Spit in the dirt kind of stuff. The shot of the big W burnin as it goes down will make ya slap ya mama! Tears well up in ya eyes. Seconds later....ya got the look of stupid on ya face! "Feelin Groovy" as we use ta say in the day. Makes ya want ta run naked in the rain. But smooth........................................

So now ya got the funny look on ya face, and a silly grin. Bloodshot eyes are a dead give away as ya stumble over your own feet comin across the yard. I'm cool baby,Im cool. All ya got ta do is believe. Throw in a smiggin of faith and ya got yourself a whole lot of gifts.

Before I forget and some of ya'll bout bust a gut,TGIF! Yep! Today we celebrate its Friday. Knowin we got a three day weekend. We got to at least pretend we celebratin Labor. I'll go for a game of cards instead.

This is the official kick off to the weekend! HEY! Don't burn that burger! Bubba

What a summer!

What a summer Possum's! Bubba is back in the saddle once again. We had some down time due to lots going on here in the south of no where. Country music still goin on and all that jazz. No worries there. Been on the movie watch as ya'll know. Seen the newest Harry Potter movie,Austrailia,New in Town and I don't know what all. The theatre scene was positively interestin. Got Mozart playing and a cup of cultural coffee sittin right here off to the side and havin a wonderful evenin. OK! If I must,pinky extended. CEO the fools word of the week. And fools they all have been. The funny part is they call it CHRISTIAN. These very same people helped a certain someone to loose their job. And in the name of Jesus! 10 fold guys. Better go and read that part again. We forgive them just the same.

Have a nice day! Bubba

Cop Thursday

A policeman livin in the nieghborhood certianly gives me a sense of security and well bein! Not to mention I get to lay all over the cop car and take pictures! I'm a bad Sock Monkey with a purpose! Well...not really,but it's fun ta think about anyway. It twas another "what do ya do in the middle of the night when ya have ta stay up cause ya work on over nights." I'm here ta tell ya! We lay on cop cars and take photos! LOL! Am I bad?

The coffee flowin like a river in the kitchen fills the air with a wonderful smell. I sit here and dream of goin ta see the new Star Trek movie. Looks ta be a good one accordin to the previews. Savannah Jane will be attendin the showin with her newly found boyfriend. Mike and I will have ta go and see it by ourselves as usual.

We were suppose ta have rain Wednesday,Thursday and Friday. So far it has yet to manifest itself. Sure hope it doesn't rain on my parade for this Saturday. My surprise for you guys will be ruined. Lets all keep our fingers crossed and say a little prayer.

I guess that about covers it for now. Bubba

The warm up

Looks like the day got off to a great start! It did warm up a bit. I think the high today is 67? Beautiful spring day! The sun is shinin finally! Although I'm told there is rain comin for Wednesday,Thursday and Friday. So we'll just enjoy the day as the comin days won't be so nice. The newly gotten cactus teardrop is all planted and doin good thus far. Ya'll guessed it! The shadow? It's Mike's big head gettin in the way! Stealin my close up attraction! Back off photo man! LOL!

The mornin walk has already proceeded and he's loaded with energy! Honestly.....what do ya'll do with a Sock Monkey owner? They can be a royal pain sometimes. But-cha got ta lov'em! At least he doesn't let me sit around and collect dust! I've gotta give it to him on that one!

We got a big surprise for this weekend. I'm not gonna tall ya'll what it is yet. So be sure ya'll stay tuned for this weekends blog. Let the spring and summer begin! Lots ta do out and about Nashville. The fair should be comin soon. I will be checkin out the website to see when the correct dates are. Loads of new art work ta see. So thats one good thing ya'll have ta look forward to. This weekend is way better than that! Mums the word! I'm keepin my red heel smile sealed.

The trains across the street are rushin on bye. Their horns ehco off in the distance. Places ta go. Bubba

The Tuesday off

I'm up early this mornin. What did I find when I got up? Why it's 50 degrees! Are ya'll kiddin me? Enough with the cold weather already! Some states were down ta 38 last night. Let the coffee brew! Need some warmin up.

They are puttin Mike back on the day shift for two weeks. He's not happy about it at all! In jobs past,they were glad to have someone who would do the over night shifts! They come in and have plenty of cakes to sale. Makes no sense ta say the least. Night time folks were always a treasure cause no one ever wanted ta do it. Was told he would be doin this permanent. Now another store in the area needs a bakery manager and one of our own wants the job. So everyones life has been turned upside down. He might be rethinkin things.

Everyone ready for the new Star Trek movie? Mike can't wait ta see it! The previews look really good. It did pretty good in it's openin weekend. We have that ta look forward to. Lets just see if they can really do a good a job as the one in the 60's is brought to life with different actors playin the same rolls. Kirk and Spock brought back to life. Could be inerestin.

Mike will be out walkin as soon as it warms up. The weight almost completely gone now. He's done a really good job at workin it all off. The last few pounds are always the hardest ta get off. Lookin good at 50 Mike! You better work!

Found out someone has been listenin in on my phone. Folks can tap into your phone and listen to every word you say even when your phone is off. Ya'll have to take the battery out to shut it down. It has been reported and the ones doin it are gettin ready for a big surprise they never thought would happen.

Lock and load Possums! It is the agenda of the day. Feelin groovy and all that jazz. Have a great day! Toodles! Bubba
