Saw this comic in a Garfield book I have a couple of days ago. It's an older comic (only about 20 years old) but still hilarious.

Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...

Hi, this is my first post on ATP. I just found the site this afternoon. Hello Everyone.

Skiekitty....I'm with you....2013 was the worst year of my life too. Here's to a much much better 2014.

OH yuck. Another January snow storm going on here. We are supposed to get at least 12 inches. Snow started early this morning and expected to keep going until tomorrow noon. This is the view from my back door.
