Join me every day at Noon EST for the continuing adventures of the bungling detective, N. Owl, in her quest to bring the mastermind, ~M, to justice! If you’ve missed any episodes, you can find them HERE!
After all this, enough was enough
The case had been extremely tough
I needed to take a vacation
Far away from the station
Somewhere that wasn’t so rough
~M was gone now, the case had been closed
They didn’t need us, so I left, unopposed
Packed my bags in my trunk
To get away from this funk
But whereto, I would leave, undisclosed
Far away, from the city and grime
Of having to fight all this crime
Had enough of the dirt
And that lemon dessert
Need to just relax for some time
Managed to survive Fred and Cory
And Mildred, well she’s another story
Then there’s Walt with the flame
That’s the name of his game
Now, cooking things in his own laboratory
Penelope, thank God, flew back to Perth
Michael has finally gotten rid of his girth
Swore off lemons for life
Gave them all to his wife
No longer looks like he’s about to give birth
Sarah’s back at the office, what a gal
She’s really become quite a pal
Saved me from those awful chains
By simply throwing her planes
Take her with me, on vacation, I shall
As for ~M and her girls, they disappeared
When the time for their trials had neared
Left a note, an inky indenture
“See you soon, on our next adventure!”
Three masterminds on the loose, oh dear!
And so ends this case, rather grand
Though nothing went as we planned
Still, there may come a day
But now, there’s nothing more to say
Let me be, with my feet in the sand
I hope you’ve enjoyed reading this as much as I’ve enjoyed writing it. Until next time, this is N. Owl, signing off 🙂

Thank you! I finally had enough of my left knee (actually Susan had enough of my complaining) and I called yesterday and made an appointment with my orthopedic surgeon. I meet with him next Wednesday to discuss a left knee replacement.

Oh boy…I’ve been putting mine off. My physical therapist said my knee is doing great, BUT, it’s probably because the warm weather is here.. We’ll see what happens when it changes. Please keep me posted. Your always in my thoughts and prayers 🙂 ❤
