I’m bottling out !

~WARNING~

I suggest that you read this post with your eyes closed as it’s really scary !

w20

The other morning I woke up (I do some mornings) and my heart missed a beat (which means I’ll live one heartbeat longer. Yay !).  For, as I looked out of the window, my aghast was astonished when before me, above the street, hovered two UFOs.

w14

There was nobody about !  Did all the local Spanish villagers run away on the train,  or were they all abducted ?  Will I be next ?

w13

Maybe they are not UFOs,  but two foot high influenza viruses breeding and ready to climb up my nose.  Painful !

w11

Or, perhaps, giant snowflakes that had drifted through a strawberry & mint ice cream factory.

w10

Whatever they are, they are still out there …… waiting to get me !

w20

The other big village on the mountain side is also infested !

w3

There are eggs nesting everywhere !

w9

w7

Eggs, shape shifting into angels !

w5

w4

Blue crowns are swooping like flies !

w6

w2

Heroically, I will defend Spain from the onslaught !

w1

This may be my last post.  For, as I type, they are coming through the windows.  Stand behind me.  I will save you.  I must press Publish to warn the world ………

Are you still scared ?

If you are, then I will heroically unscare you.  Ignore the cat ! 😉

      • Thank you Ralph, but I don’t “do Christmas anymore.” I just don’t feel up to all the hoopla. Been there and done all that in my younger years. My kids think its terrible. Oh well. I will enjoy day of solitude and be happy. I’m just glad to be alive and walking upright and without assistance. But if you are someone that enjoys Christmas, I hope you can be with some friends and if not, you have you cats. Seriously. 🙂

      • Oh okay. I’m pretty much the same, but for health reasons. There is no way I can put up decorations. My little white fire alarm started cheeping at 1am. I managed to change the battery, but climbing on the stool was scary due to my poor balance.

      • Do be careful ralph. A fall would be very bad. There is nary a decoration in my house. I have a large glass shelved and lighted curio cabinet that is filled with cat, dog and, bird replicas of various sizes and poses. I turn the lights on in the cabinet and enjoy my collection of many years. That’s Christmas enough for me.

    Merry Christmas, Ralph and kitties.

  28. It was a little hard reading this post with my eyes closed, but I did it! Of course I had to crawl out from under the table first – after my first UFO spotting. I swear I saw another UFO here while I was on my walk tonight, but it disappeared before I could properly open my eyes. I think I made it home, but I may have been abducted for a blink of an eye first. At any rate, I’m back. I hope you have a wonderful New Year, MFR. I’m celebrating with Eternal Traveler this year, so I’m pretty excited. Lots of love and hugs to you. xxxooo – take your pick! 🙂 RVBFM

  35. My first thought about those decorations was that they look very Spanish, and very cute (and possibly a bit ‘water-bottle-ish’, too 🙂 ). I hope your health has improved since last time we spoke, Ralph. You sound fighting fit, and your sense of humour is as it always was. It’s New Year’s Day, as I write this, so I’ll wish you a wonderful and happy 2016. 🙂

    • Hi Millie 😀
      Wow ! Three comments from you. I’d better get busy and answer them !
      Yep, they are bottles and still out there in the street. Some have collapsed, but these two decorations outside my apartment are still intact.
      My health has stabilised as I’ve been at home most of the time and I know what hours of the day I can do or not do things. The worry, the waiting around, suspect treatments and the long journeys taking up most of the day to the hospital didn’t help. No more trips thank heavens !
      Have a great 2016 to you too. Ralph xox ❤
