Nita Banita,,, aint she rotten???????? she really enjoyed the 11 days off I had. I WANT MORE.

I was just messing around this morning before leaving for the office, changed the bulb in a little lamb, thanx LUKE , for the ORANGE bulb , Christmas happy. I really want this mirror gone, but I think its glued to the wall, really thin wall, it would probably tear the wall down removing it, there is a large doorway to the left, I've thought about installing a sliding door thingy, similar to some barn doors, not sure where to get the mechanism slider thing. Lots of ideas, not so much expertise and sticking power at times. this idea has been on my mind for a while, I think I could cut back on heat and air if I had a sliding door way to close off the teeny dining room at times.

 

 

 

 

 

Silly Dilly, wants in wants out, she would rather be out, but not when the wind is whipping and snorting like it was yesterday, she did hang out on the front porch for part of the day. she would come in for a nap, and then back outdoors.

Ok, this isn't at my house, I borrowed the picture, but gee I love this concept, bunk beds for dogs or kitties???? WHO KNEW???

SO, I ended up being off this past Monday myself, due to cutting the DSL line at the house while working on the dog/yard fence. This happened on Saturday, so of course I had withdrawal Sunday and part of Monday morning until ATT made it out to repair. Not sure about that dude, but I enjoyed watching every step of the way, maybe I could even repair it myself next time, well if I had some of those fancy patches they use.

He was a bit grumpy if I do say so myself, well at least I knew where the cut was, so he didn't have to search for it. YES MR ATT, I will be more careful next time, it could have been the electric or the water line. YES dude, I know I should have called the digg people. JUST FIX it already. Doesnt' hurt my feelings to miss work on Monday, worst day of the week with all the hoot and holler guys in the shop, acting like they haven't seen each other in years rather than a few days. I have banned them from talking foot ball any where near me. I need to retire so badly.

At least I did a bit of deco and had a tiny fire while waiting for the ATT dude. Tried to get a couple pictures with the dogs, MilaMonster did ok, ShebaRoosome couldn't be still, I tricked her for about a half second with a blanket, then she tried to kill it.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL and to ALL a Great Night!!!

I guess, I get to say goodbye to my wonderful, best lived yet Japanese Azaleas, just took this picture this weekend 11/21/2015 and I think its the best it bloomed all this year with our crazy Mississippi weather, I need more of these!!!

OK, so what if its only a myth, if ever I would have a tattoo or something, this might be the one, I once collected a few Pegasus figurines, and of course I love my leopard appaloosas, so combine the two and wow. BUT PLEASE people do not combine the unicorn and Pegasus, THERE aint no such critter, LOL

Just because you never know when someone in the area may visit a blog, I've been following the hunt for this Lost Dog In Jackson, MS, I know they can and do get picked up and taken elsewhere at times. SO, I am sharing the poster that is being placed in several areas of Jackson, MS and even Clinton, as someone seems to think she may have been spotted there, One of those did turn out to be a different dog and is in very poor shape. That one has been picked up and taken to a safe place. I think the poster speaks for itself. Please share. The dog was let out of a local Motel when someone broke into the room. Misty lives in Alabama and returns to the hunt as often as possible. A few of her friends are taking calls and continuously looking. Phoenix went missing August 16,2015 and was spotted a few times, but not lately.

The Angel Trumpet tree/bush at its best this year. and the season is almost over. TOO much rain, TOO little Rain, I've seen it look much nicer in years gone by. WOW the sweet smell early mornings.

DOWN TREES DOWN

So, it took me almost a month to get the two larger trees down, I have to admit I am not crazy about my little gas chainsaw,,, I practiced on 10 or so smaller trees, and cut on the two larger ones a bit for three weekends in a row and at last they are down, not a day too soon as the rain set in just after, and now its a mushy mess where those two lay. they will just have to rot as its now to wet and mushy to work on them, I think I need a bigger saw. It was really awkward trying to get good footing whacking these two off the bank. I did turn the electric fence off and lowered it just in case I had to run. I think I might be done for a while except for the clean up.
The pond does have a bit more water thanx to the much needed rain. the water should be almost to the fence.

OK!!! MY FIRST downed tree with the chainsaw I bought 2 years ago,,, I really detest the noise and danger of a chainsaw, but the trees are getting larger, I took down about 6 of them, not really big ones but too large to drag, so I will have to cut them in smaller chunks and eventually burn, too bad they are soft sappy trees or I would have some firewood. Some of them, like this one will be dropped into the pond for now. YES, this onel should be in the water, but thanks to a dry summer and a broken dam, it didn't quite make it. One tree hasn't quite fallen, I'll have to study and make another cut.

DID I disturb the two cottonmouths that came out on the bank, or were they hunting the nonexistent sun? one went away, one was acting very sluggish, never did leave. I checked Sunday morning and he was dead. WHAT KILLED HIM???? A mystery to be sure.

DOWN TREES DOWN!!!

sooooooooooooo, I saw this Fiery Furnace Hibiscus online this week and WOW, I think I need some, wonder if I can find them local??? HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!

 

A friend gave me a pond liner and even though I have a real pond, kind of broken down, I decided to make a shallow pond for birds, box turtles and such to visit, Its a work in progress as for now I am just scavenging items to "pretty" it up. Plus I have to patch one spot. the birds have started visiting it. and there is a frog in it, that I saved from one of the cats.

I added another photo, its still a work in progress, no turtles yet that I have seen, but the birds and butterflies are loving it.
