M&M Monday

Grrrr . . . 

Maggie often will sidle up to me when I'm sitting on the sofa. She's a sidler. I move the coffee table so she can fit in. She likes to position herself so her head is sorta under the coffee table.  And then she falls asleep. Except this time she nestled in and then started growling at Millie.

So of course, Millie growled back.

She's so ferocious!

Here's Maggie . . . 

She kinda looks like she's going to sneeze:

Achoo!

But she can look pretty ferocious herself!

And then the excitement wears off . . .

Zzzzzz . . . .

FUNny Friday

A few random funnies. Jewel goes undercover to a karaoke bar.

Inconthevable! Princess Bride spoof.

What would you do if this happened to you?



You can read more about it, here.  HAPPY Friday, everyone!

A few pix

'member this?

Christmas Day 2009

Totally different river!

Sunsetting on my way home . . .

BEAUTIFUL!!!

This was a pic I took last March when it was just starting to think about being spring:

Later when it was really spring . . .

I've been here for 3 years, now. And each year these delicious blossoms are on this tree:

They smell like carnations. 

But never any fruit, until this year:

I have apples?  Really? COOL!!!

But wait!  There's more:

YUP. Pears.

YUM.

Hummingbird Vizzie

You know I have hummingbird feeders.   And one of my favourite things to do is to sit on my back porch and watch them. I first discovered I had hummingbirds when I saw one come up to Chiro-sister's stained glass piece hanging in my kitchen window. So I put up feeders [Chiro-sister: Is that the feeder I gave to MUM?"  Oops.] and have been entertained ever since. Well, yesterday, look what happened:

I know, you're squinting at the picture, saying, "What am I supposed to be looking at?" And if you're Mum, "I cahn't see anything." See the dark mark toward the bottom of the window? That's a hummingbird. Inside. I snapped a pic before I scooped her up into my hands. As soon as I covered her, she went completely still. At night, they go into a state of hibernation, where everything slows way down.  So then I walked to the porch, opened my hands, and off she flew. PreTTy, preTTy, preTTy COOL!

M&M Monday

Often, when I look out the kitchen window, this is what I see:

I am feeding the squirrels.

The dogs will get rather woofy, and want to run after them first thing in the morning.

Usually, when the girls are on the porch, the squirrels stay away. But they are getting braver . . .

This little guy even stops & looks at M as she's lying on the porch. Oblivious.

Zzzzzz . . . .

I have added a new page on the side bar for M&M Mondays, so that all the M&M posts are in one place. You're welcome.  :-)

Day of Rest

I see hearts wherever I go.

Pioneer Sister's creek yesterday.
