Spring has sprung! Weeds, robin red- breasts, and snow drops.


OPEN WINDOWS BABY! Love it! You know, as much as I love the smell of the foods we cook, somehow, the fresh air smells so much better!

Yesterday, we had a sap- sucker on the deck, (a largish woodpecker), and Thursday, there were 2 Pilieated Woodpeckers in the swamp, suckers are more than a foot tall!

This morning a small herd of deer were on _this_ side of the creek... SO cute! 3 babies, an older one, and 2 adults. Of course a car chased them away before I had the chance to grab the camera. ):

Oh well, better luck next time!

Enjoy the warm! And as usual...

Thanks for Noticing me!

Wow! After a week of mild, if not beautiful weather, this is what we have to deal with... Ice over running water!

Isn't this cool? the mist from the mini fall turned into icicles in the dead weeds.



And it's weather like that, that produces masterpieces, (masterpi?) like this.. Mmmm, Pina Colada cake! Both boys helped make, and there really was a minimum of stress. AMAZING! LOL!


But, happiness and joy! We are supposed to get shorts weather this weekend! Woohoo!

Have fun swinging with Mother Nature!

And as usual,

Son #1!

Okay, trying something new... Please let me know if it worked!

This is my son #1, he came in 2nd place all around for the green belts in his first ever tournament! He has been taking Ton su do (spelled phonetically!) for a little over a year now, and he's on his last stripe for green belt... Next stop, Red belt!

I just adore the "mad" scrunchy face he makes when he hits those 3 boards!



And he has nothing to say about it! Modest too!

As usual,

Thanks for Noticing me!

No new pics

Oy! Having technical issues here, SORRY! I keep getting warning thingies, telling me 2 of my drives are failing, so I need to take my laptop in while it's still under warantee.

I just wanted to be perfectly clear that I'm NOT slacking this time! 8~D

In the meantime, D-dasha's bizarre behavior has been explained. She has fleas! Not many to be sure, but she is apparently allergic. 3 days into her kitty claritin, and she's back to being, well, a cat. Oh well. *snicker*

Soooooo... I _will_ be back!

As usual,

Thanks for Noticing me!

Hey Now!

So it occurred to me that although my Blog is called "For the Love of Eeyore", I haven't actually posted anything about him! These are pics from around my bedroom... My ceiling fan, my closet door, My Eeyore knick knacks. These don't even cover all the Eeyore themed clothes, pj's, and sweatshirts I have! He may not be an obsession, but I'm certainly a fan! LOL!





So what do you think? Should Ddasha Ddarlin' have her own fb page? LOL

Don't forget your giggle today! And as usual...

Thanks for Noticing me!

Sorry!

Okay, I've said it before, I'll say it again. I'm a horrible blog updater! (Do the cute kitties give me some points?)

Crazy, crazy, life always gettin' in the way!

We had a family crisis. My favorite cousin, (sorry to any other cousins that may be reading) was really sick, but he's well on the way to good health now. YAY!!

Still trying to catch up on projects left alone too long. Sweeping up the shrapnel that I have left strewn across my life. One step at a time. One smile at a time.

In the meantime...

D-dasha is still behaving bizarrely. Continues to find unusual places to sleep, and sit. Just this morning, I was toasting a bagel for myself. I use a small cutting board to cut, and shmear the bagel, I turned to put the stupid thing in the toaster, and when I turned back around, she had her front paws on the board crouching over it... so I tilted it up onto the cream cheese container... SHE STILL TRIED TO GET ON IT! You would have wet yourself watching her scuttle around in circles on the kitchen island trying to find something to _be_ on!

My sad, sad, life! And as usual,

Thanks for Noticing me!

Okay, I think I might have gotten this right this time! Woo hoo!

I wanted to start off this post with something I actually finished (Yay!) I don't paint much, and when I do it's usually something fairly simple... This was easy as pie and came out SO cute! It's a footstool, I use it for my laptop...

The rest of these are from our 2 weeks of non- stop snow. It's not that it snowed hard all the time, or was a light snow that gradually covered the place, it's that it almost never stopped! Sometimes hard, sometimes light, sometimes it even stopped for an hour or so, but that was rare.. I wish the snowflake pic had come out better... We don't actually get singles up here, usually it's several flakes intertwined, or these odd pellet type flakes... A common refrain around the house is "It's styrofoaming again!"

Well, at least the deer had fun with it! I really do love these guys!

Well, strap your skis on, and as usual,

Thanks for Noticing me!
