  • It's quiz time!

    Haven't done a quiz in a while and found this one on another blog. For the most part this describes me fairly well. Not sure I like the idea that if people don't "get" me, that they would think I'm incompetent. You Are…

  • A very bunny morning

    When I walked in the kitchen this morning, I happened to glance out the back door and there's a bunny munching merrily on my ornamental sweet potato plant. Then I noticed Mrs. Cottontail further out in the yard making f…

  • 178 pages read.......

    1344 more pages to go. I made the mistake of watching "Severus Snape: Friend or Foe?" videos on the Borders website. I evidently missed a lot of things or didn't attach the same significance to certain events as other …

  • Depressing Weather

    I know that here in Oklahoma we were at or near drought conditions for quite a while and needed the rain. But enough is enough. The clay can't hold anymore water and we are getting permanent puddles in the backyard. B…

  • Invisible Hummingbird

    I keep filling the hummingbird feeder and the fluid keeps disappearing, but I've yet to see a single hummingbird. They aren't normally shy creatures. I've had them fly up and "cheep" in front of my face to let me know …

  • The Sun Has Returned

    The sun is back and supposedly it will start warming up again. We're going to set out the garden plants today. If by some chance we do get another cold snap, guess we'll just have to cover them. I'm still waiting on t…
