And normalcy: "Normalcy bias, or normality bias, is a cognitive bias which leads people to disbelieve or minimize threat warnings.[1] Consequently, individuals underestimate the likelihood of a disaster, when it might affect them, and its potential adverse effects.[2] The normalcy bias causes many people to not adequately prepare for natural disasters, pandemics, and calamities caused by human error. About 70% of people reportedly display normalcy bias during a disaster.[3]" *(Our entire last nearly four years under this administration!)

Now that that is as clear as mud... I hope all these months my titles that contained those concepts are much more understandable?

I got nothing other than that for today's entry, all due to not doing much of anything.

Oh, wait...Hubby found different sized rats in his dock box down on the dock near our boat!
It was one of those composite plastic dock boxes that many stores sell, we had it for years, probably over twenty.
Chance, our last fur baby adoptee, Bichon, brought it to his attention.
When he opened it he found Tiki roof material and palm fronds all used for nesting materials!
With all different sized live rats and their babies!!!
All he did was dump it and they all ran in different directions!
I guess scurry would be a better way to say it... I was nowhere nearby when that end result occurred, thankfully! I probably would have done that cartoon scream!!!

As far as I know and Hubby too is that they might try to take up residence on board the Miss "T" 2, our pontoon! Only time will tell... we do have a very nice uninhabited by humans lot next door they SHOULD USE!!!!

Many thoughts went through my mind when Hubby told me about what he and Chance uncovered, THE PLAGUE, HUNTAVIRUS, filth, disgust... FIFEL! Ratatouille! Mickey! Steamboat Willie! Darn cartoon characters! But many were mice, not rats!!! 

Any-who, all I know from Hubby's report they dispersed, and with our luck many might try to find their way into our home... although we have been known to cut off that possibility simply by having filled in years ago all our holes be it entrees into our abode with spray foam insulation!

That should keep the little buggers out!!! Yep, I turn on a dime! HA!


And now from this the venue of my additional opinions...



And now without any further ado moving on again to...


FOR PRESIDENT & VP NEXT!


VOTE FOR JOE & Kamala! VOTE FOR JOE & Kamala! VOTE FOR JOE & Kamala! VOTE FOR JOE & Kamala! VOTE FOR JOE & Kamala!
What a great team! THE WINNING TEAM!!!

Sanity runs in their families, and kindness, and smarts! Plenty of experience too! Did I mention EXPERIENCE! And level headed clear thinking!


And so we must go...


Be smart and be safe! 
Happy good night to all!


Count those blessings and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
Take it, Bella! ( I am a Maltese Yorkie, a Morkie, and I might be four years old! We are all rescues so no one knows for sure.)I did this so I will be.

Aussie shut it down!


(I am an Australian Shepherd, an interesting factoid I was supposed to be a miniature but...as you might know I AM NOT! But I am now over two and a half years old, so I am the baby HA! I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me.)

No tail/tale publishing circa 2018.

Don't forget us too! 

Easy as Aussie, Bella, Chance, now you got it!
And me Chance, I am a Bichon Frise mix, first I thought Maltese but now I am considering poodle? I am pictured here with Mom and Dad at the Port Charlotte Animal Welfare League! I am five years old they think.
