You Capture – Meet Lily
This weeks theme on You Capture is animals. And since I have taken on another doggie, I thought I’d feature her for this subject. Lily is a Chihuahua/rat terrier mix. She only weight 7 lbs and loves to cuddle in my lap. She adores me already and I’ve only had her for a week. Lily’s …
Ted Said…..
We had another one of those difficult play dates. You know the kind…..no sharing, pushing, tripping, teasing, taunting. Geez, my kid is embarrassing! He was playing with a girl called Sarah who is his age, but they were playing football and Ted kept treating her as if he was out to win an NFL game. …
My take on: Wool
Wool is the most wonderful fiber in the world when winter comes around. That’s why we should never eat sheep. Out of respect for the “wool maker” let’s take him off the menu!
You Capture – Flowers
I was all gung ho a few weeks ago when I did my first You Capture but then I got busy. Today’s theme is flowers and I have no excuse. Right in the front yard are the most wonderful roses ever. So I grabbed my camera and VOILA! No need to go anywhere and buy …
Ted Said!
Ted and I are at the deli counter in the supermarket. I asked the lady if we could taste the farmers cheese before buying and I explained to her that last time it didn’t taste very good and we had to throw it all out. Ted pipes up, “yeah, it tasted like rotten zebras!” Good thing the …
Ted Starts Pre-School
Yesterday Hubbo and I took Ted to his pre-school orientation. He gave us such a hard time about going but then typically loved it once he got there. When the teacher lined the kids up to go outside on the playground he was the only kid who had to be told to keep his tongue to himself. That put me in …
A New Bike!
Hubbo went out this morning and bought me a new bike with a little basket on front for Oscar. We went to the Middle Creek Wildlife Preserve for a ride. Oscar loved it! He had his front legs hanging over the basket and seemed to be absolutely gleeful when I sped down hills, his fur blowing …
Ted Said!
We don’t get many squirrels around our house. There is a lack of oak trees, which is most likely the reason. But recently we started getting one. Teddy and I put peanuts out for him from time to time and sometimes catch him hanging out on our deck furniture. One morning I was showing Ted …
I Was The Passenger!
I was the passenger in this car today as a long piece of plastic flew off of a bus and stabbed into our windshield. I was covered in tiny shards of glass and glass dust. Thank God for the reactive blink because if I hadn’t shut my eyes in reaction I would have had glass …
You Capture
I just discovered I Should Be Folding Laundry, a pretty awesome blog, I must say! This post is dedicated to You Capture where Beth (the blogger) decides on a photography theme for the week. This week it’s: In The Kitchen. I picked some apples from the very sorry apple tree I have way in the …
