Fare well and on to new beginings...

Dylan's farewell party came and went so quick.  It makes you feel old when you are seeing your children venture off to see the big wide world.  Dylan is off to Germany for two short years for the USAF.  He is missed much already.  This guy has spent a couple nights at our house a time or two.  I used to love it when there was a house full of children!  Then they grow up.   I am glad that DK (that's what I call him) is well on his way.  He will do great things I know it.  His momma (the real one) has without a doubt puffy eyes today.  I hope he gave a little extra squeeze while hugging her goodbye.   I LOVE YOU DK!  AND I HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON.

And it's back to work...

It's Sunday evening and it's back to work for me tomorrow.  My vacation last week was quite UN-eventful but relaxing.  My weekend was awesome!  We were able to spend time with friends which was really great.  My hottie and I went fishing with our long time friend Westy.  My hottie hasn't fished since his father died so getting out on the water for him this weekend was just  so good for him in so many ways.  There was a little fishing tournament on Saturday then some foo foo drinks and good food that night.  Sunday the Mike's and I went fishing.  Oh I was in my glory.  I haven't been fishing in like five years since Sr. passed.   We have a rule that the first fish in the boat gets a buck and then the biggest fish in the boat also gets a buck.  Well I could smell the two bucks that should have been mine!  I wanted nothing more than to beat the Mikes out there.  (heavy sigh).... My hottie had to bring the first one and the biggest one in.  Dang it!  Westy also had to show me up too!  But today was a good day because I use a baitcaster reel (only baitcaster reels) and I did not backlash a single time.  Not to mention I had great casts out there!  It was like riding a bike!  I am ready to go again.  Bring it on boys! 

Thanks for a great weekend Westy, Surra and Nikki.  We love you guys!

A not so tasty breakfast ...

Being that our garden is growing so nicely and really producing already I decided to juice yellow and green beans a cucumber and a red delicious apple.  YUCK!!!  oh it taste awful.   I am not even sure that I could add like another apple to it either.  Well I was able to get it down but it was hard.

Stepping into technology!

So I have downloaded the Blogger mobile and this is my test to see it works or I have to read more on it.


Thank goodness for cats!

I was working on the computer today in the office (where I also have squirrels) and behind me I hear this crash and something hit the wall!  I turned around because I thought maybe one of my squirrels had gotten out (they freak out super easy) but it was No Tail kitty!  She had caught a mouse that was about six feet behind me!  EWWWW!  This is her first mouse (that I know of anyway)  and yup...I now see that she has left if for me on the living room floor.  ugggg!!!!!!  Where is my hottie (at work).

Well, it's off to give my kitty a treat and to take care of the present she left for me.

Oh man!!  I just went to clean up the mouse and he is GONE!     oh man!  Now I have an injured mouse combing the house! 

A little something about us...

My husband and I have been together for twenty two years now and are still just as happy as we were in the beginning. We have similar interests and one in particular is that we love animals and taking care of them. Mike and I volunteer our time with our local Wildlife Rehab Center (WRC) rehabbing squirrels mostly. Baby squirrels are so adorable and a rare site to most. We have two wonderful children. Which most of the time they totally think their mom is a weirdo. LOL:)
