Polly the Peaceful Parrot

April 18, 2013 By: Patricia

I’m doing it again, and probably will do these little sneaky posts to finish out the week. Polly is looking over my shoulder and insisting I finish these stories when I get back home. I’m sure she’ll nag until the job is done.

I’m still ducking the A to Z gods, although I’m sure they’ll be very understanding. Family always has to come first, especially when someone gets sick. I’ll keep checking in though, and planning next week’s REAL A to Z posts.

    Pat – Sorry to hear there is an illness in your family. The blog gods will be kind to you I am sure. And Polly? She’s far too peaceful to nag too much. πŸ™‚
