This is a photo of a flower arrangement I made my mom, as a get well from her surgery. Had her gal bladder taken out!

Today we played in the water in the ocean, it was very cold at first, but then i liked it. however, there was kelp everywhere and I hate the feeling of it getting tangled on my ankles, for I fear it is an animal much smaller than me who potentially has a small pain inflicting method.

Thanks to the bees for putting that fear in all of us, so very early.


The double dutch bus song uses this language code:Double-Dutch is also a language game, akin to Pig Latin or Opish. Another name for it is Tutnese. In it, vowels are pronounced normally, but each consonant is replaced with a syllable from the following table:
:
b - bub
k - kuk
s - sus
c - cash
l - lul
t - tut
d - dud
m - mum
v - vuv
f - fuf
n - nun
w - wash
g - gug
p - pub
x - xux
h - hutch
q - quack
y - yub
j - jug
r - rug
z - zub
Example: "Mary had a little lamb" becomes Mumarugyub hutchadud a lulituttutlule lulamumbub.

There is, however, another language game referred to as "double Dutch," though it is sometimes called "jibberish". In this version, the speaker places the sounds "th" and "g" into syllables. It is easiest to teach using one syllable words. For example, the word "cat" would be "cathagat" and "wall" would be "wathagall". For multisyllabic words, the speaker would treat each syllable as its own word. For example, "open" would be "othagopethegen". The sounds of the vowels remain the same. Writing it makes less sense than speaking it. The only source for this information is the fact that it can be spoken this way in various parts of the country and be understood by other speakers.
