Is anyone else upset that Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy broke up?

Good Morning everyone.
Happy Wednesday!

This morning I feel like I'm moving in quick sand. Last night's exercise class was brutal and it was more like a friendlier version of boot camp. I walked (ok, I crawled away) with as much dignity as I could muster. Afterward stopped into Walmart with my friend and didn't intend on buy much of anything and spent 54 bucks. Not my plan at all. I thought I could just let Buttercup out the back yard for the night to do her business but she wasn't having any of that and I had to walk her but lucky my oldest daughter saw how slowly I was moving and decided to go with us and she ended up walking her while I scooped her poop. Normally, I would say I got the raw end of that deal but at least I wasn't being pulled in one direction while my body wanted to head into another (home). I didn't throw my phone out the window this morning when my 4:45 am alarm went off for my daily speed walk with my buddy. I got through it. Took my time getting ready for work and now I'm here in my office hoping and praying I won't have to get up and down to much. Otherwise it's gonna be a wonderful Wednesday, LOL!!!!

I hope everyone had a great night and hope we all have a great day!

I hear and feel the pain; I used to get like that with the Spin Cycle Boot Camp classes - ye-ouch! Walmart is the $100.00 store, go in expect to buy a few things and leave saying "where'd my money go?"

FB no doubt, not to worry it's probably a movie gimmick - watch for another film to reunite those two Muppets.

I think that is the answer, to promote their next movie =]

Or promotion for their new show this fall. Honestly, I never understood why Kermit was with Miss Piggy, she is quite the bully.

Would you stay with someone who karate chops you constantly. I have a Miss Piggy doll in a bright bathing suit with a floral hat, hot pink cocktail gloves and orange high heels sitting on a small wired-gold chair. O'Malley the cat never touches it. Aside from cleaning it now and then, Miss Piggy has had the same place of honour since we moved in here. I imagine she came to life once and karate chopped the cat so now he doesn't go near her.

We had a crazy storm around 4 p.m. It poured buckets, and the hail sounded like a crowd of people chucking stones at the building. We all actually moved away from the windows for a few minutes---it seemed like the hail might actually break one. 20 minutes later the sun was shining and it was much cooler.

Didn't get out of work until 8:15. Ugh.

Hope today is less scary and that you get out of work on time!!!

I'm sure it's a publicity stunt!

My sons dental work is turning out to cost less than expected because they can do a partial denture instead of a tooth replacement. Still expensive but only a third of what the other would cost. So grateful for this.

ANY reduction in dental fees is a blessing.
My dental office sent a bill last week that overcharged me by $350! I'm glad I phoned them and went through each item with them. They found the error and resubmitted a claim that the insurance company didn't receive.
Happy Wednesday!

HAHAHA to funny! I don't blame O'Malley one bit. She's one spicy cat!!!

I woke up after only sleeping for an hour last night and the song, "Wonderful Christmas Time" was playing in my head as I examined a beautiful musical ornament that I do not own or remember ever seeing in person. It had a Thomas Kinkade meets Dr. Seuss feel to it. It was a snowy mountain with a North Pole sign on top and five different coloured presents ran down the snowy path to a sleigh, up the back end and back down the front. When I woke up for the second time (the first time I didn't really wake up I was still dreaming), I thought about the ornament and the song and realized that the dream was caused by all the fun and merriment that's been taking place on these forum pages over the years.
I love it when I have dreams about Christmas and who else would want to hear about them than my merry chums who totally understand how I can dream Christmas things in August.

Keep a merry thought in your head!

Such a cool dream!
You need someone to sketch that so an artist can make an actual one! It can be an official MMC ornament to raise funds for Santa's Sleigh. (Okay, now I'M dreaming.)
Happy Wednesday!
