yikes from may 1 2019

well is it a coyote??? i was expecting deer. i was cleaning up the SD card on the deer cam, and look what was there from May 1, 2019.. FRONT yard. Im way behind checking the card, still cleaning it. and the clock is an hour behind. Brought it in today to change batteries etc.

Cat Alarm

 Banita,,,, best snake (little ones) catcher around.. I was doing stuff in the yard, and heard her calling, she doesn't often,,,,unless she has something caught her cornered. Small snake this time,,, I took off over there with a shovel. I had to get her to drop it.. wasn't a bad one and he took off for a pile of leaves , so i let him go. I don't think Banita was real thrilled with me. She is nine years old this year and sleeps a lot, but then all cats do, don't they??

Keto, is it the newest better eating way or not,,,,,

so, everything i hear and read about eating better for the dreaded word DIET... is keto????? 

i wasn't looking for it, but a note From Pinterest in email linked me to the following recipe,,,  not bad, I did modify a bit, and need to study the diff options , the one i made today, might have a bit more calories but still shouldn't be bad depending on which options,,, the first ones i made had no coconut flour,, todays did and the picture is today, i chose to make a mini bundt cake pan although the picture makes it look larger. I cut the recipe since its just me, but from what i have read, you can freeze these, the first batch yesterday was minus the coconut flour and wow they really fluffed out high, but of course once cooled they really shrunk.. i think if you really want to be healthy you can just use the egg whites. ( I didn't) you can also choose to use it as french toast.. i like it too, but not a real fan of syrup... I did use light, Pretty good,,,, Would i make again,,, YESSSS,, i also see where you can make a tiny version in a minute in the microwave.

RIP MY BELOVED MILAMONSTER 1/21/2018

ADOPTED just before Katrina 2005,,,, my beloved Milamonster needed help crossing the Rainbow bridge, again, one of the hardest things to do,,,and so many there waiting for me???? 

so many pictures and memories,,, great dog, hard headed like many, but i think the mix of Labrador/Rhodesian Ridgeback was the thing.wouldn't change a thing, she pretty much got me through the Eleven long years of my son being away... we adopted her for him, and he was amazing with her for the time he had with her, They graduated Obedience school when she was around 5 months... enough for now,,,,, the tears make it hard to see what i am typing, so scuse the typos. almost 14 years ,,, never enough. so many more pictures,,, may have to add, more for myself. 

2019,,,year of the wet stuff?????

shazammm,, can the rain stop already??? this is my back yard. the pond is overflowing down the backside, most of the standing water is from downpours and coming down the hill and the neighbors yard flowing my way... i expect to become a famous sinkhole any day now,,,, and some days it's been warm enough, the turtles come out to soak up a bit of warm.

silly dilly fall 2018

 silly dilly looking inside porch bench, after a tree frog.

 two pictures of the teeny green snake that Silly Dilly showed me, I took Dilly indoors so the snake could hide, he was moving slow on a cool day.

 Dilly surveying the driveway , what is she looking for now. and below, another casualty, some pictures are edited, cuz cats will be cats, most wild critters are not needed close to home.

Silly dilly, has about 4 kitty beds, but prefers the brand new bed i purchased for dogs.

2017 save????

wow, I've never ever kept a poinsettia alive past the holidays, but this one is from Thanksgiving of 2017. not in the best of shape, and almost croaked last week, from lack of water.. who knew(not me) that they barely need water. I gave it a tiny dribble and it perked back up. OF course Banita helped didn't she??? 

PopCorn Trees/tallow tree, INVASIVE 2018

https://helpstopthepop.com/tallowtree/https://helpstopthepop.com/tallowtree/



will add a picture or two of the trees close to me, I pull them and spray all the time, but it seems to make them worse. I'm in the middle of acres of land that belong to farmers or neighbors , some of who do not maintain property. So hopefully the Commission will investigate???

Turkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well a whole herd of them,, oops flock.

NO,not a very good picture, but I was rushing after the dogs alerted to trespassers. the wild kind. I knew i couldn't get one with phone, so ran for the house to grab camera, turkeys are very private critters though, so out of all the ones i actually saw, 15 maybe, young ones, that i startled badly,, I only managed to get this one picture, They may never return after that scare in August, although i did hear them calling to each other to reunite the flock

... OOPS update, I did hear them I think yesterday morning while walking Shebaroosome behind the pond.Its all good, pictures or not. It makes my day to see wildlife.

Sheba's dream target!!!

Mighty brave deer, I guess they k now Sheba isn't coming out of the back yard, If she ever escapes with a deer in sight, i may never find her again, I believe she could run for days, she's been after a deer for a few years now, haha. Yes, i have a deer cam in the front yard, mostly set to catch car tags when people leave. It works if i get the angle correct. Plus i get to see wildlife.

Labrador/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix.

Inventory House Valuables, not that i have many

aggg, looks like i need to get a fake hand or stand?? and of course better pictures. this post is more about creating an inventory of some items around the house for me and insurance purposes. 

I realized i don't do a very good job of listing inventory, after my Mothers wedding rings were stolen in rehab the very first night right off her hand.

 YES, we should have removed them even if she argued. Those rings have been on her hand for  over 66 years, and they didn't fall  off, 

Yes a police report was issued. we came up with a picture or two, but not very good at all.

 i'll be adding more to this post along the way. Serial numbers hopefully for electronics mowers etc.

Needless to say, my Mother has been very upset and still talks about those rings. 

My fav the horseshoe ring. and i still like the wedding set i chose many moons ago even if i did get rid of the X.

new neighbor??? August 2018

Well ,, Im getting a new neighbor, not sure if he bought the place, or just the new abode that is moving in. I'll have to add a picture. I may have to call the bail bondsman and ask again. I talked to him not long ago, and tried to get him to sell Just the property, but said not,,, Then i see all the action going on. I didn't want to stop and be nosey, but alas the Dude had ot pay me a visit when he cut my waterline. I kinda figured that would happen. he was fairly nice, and apparently works out of town, sometimes weeks at a time. Kinda like that, he seems to be fairly handy, he's doing most of the work himself. SO who knows ,, lol, he might come in handy. they buried most of the stuff that didn't burn. 

poor willow tree,,

I planted this weeping willow tree 13 years ago because i think they looked neat, but they can be a bit messy, so i fell out of like for it. AND it died, its now as large as some get, I'm slowly getting it down, Look what decided grow on it this week.
