zoo trip

Monday I had a field trip to the zoo. Jesse met me there.

I hadn't been there since the girls were around 10. It's

changed a lot. It was a perfect day.

When it's cool enough to wear a jacket (and Jesse time), that's perfect.

It's that time of year again

Jesse seems to like going to the pumpkin patch,

picking out pumpkins and "decorating" them.

she really is a good dog

I really like garage sales

We've been looking for a new little fridge for drinks and

they are not cheap. Today we found a really nice one at

a garage sale for $35 yay! It's almost twice as

big as the one we had before and Chuck had

been researching them and found out this

is a really good brand, again yay!

Mary had a little lamb

At the elementary school some parents live close enough to

walk with their kids to school. The other day

I noticed this lady carrying what I thought

was a puppy. She set it down to let it walk behind her and

I saw it was a lamb or maybe it's a baby goat.

It followed her just like a dog. I saw her

this morning and asked if I could take a picture. She said sure and

told it where to stand and told it to stay sooooo cute. I

didn't know you could train them like that.

now I remember

I don't ever, I guess you call it, deep fry food and today I remember why. oww my tummy hurts

Oh my..!

Yum, yum I had a recipe for beer battered

asparagus so I thought I would try squash,

mushrooms, and chicken, mmm good.
sorry a little blurry

monday

Art I finished yesterday, well actually just now. punkin dog

Corey and Chris' new baby

Corey sent me a text yesterday saying, "I have a surprise

you and Daddy won't like". How could I not like something so

cute? But I do think it's too much, let's see 2 dogs, 2 cats,

a chinchilla and 2 fish. Way too much for me. But I sure like this

puppy. I told her it's like having grandkids I get to play with it and

love it and send it home, yay. His name is Miles Davis, like the jazz musician.

I call him Miles of Smiles 'cause he's so cute.

dizzy millie

nice weather

I was going to upload some pictures but it just doesn't seem to be working tonight. Monday, Jesse and I went to Ikea and got her a desk so I could have mine back. I haven't done anything, art, in forever and couldn't get motivated without a desk to work on. I have it back and have something almost ready to hang, yay.
Today, the weather was so nice I drove with the top down on the way home and went for a walk when I got here and that was what the pictures were from. Love this weather hope it stays a while.

been unhappy

They changed my run and I've been miserable. They took away the kids I liked and looked forward to seeing, believe it or not my middle school.
But I have decided to stop letting it bother me and have hope that I've been moved for a reason.
Because it's a choice to be miserable or not. I'm choosing not.

another post for corey

the Sunday before Corey's surgery we all got together at Mom's for her

last (for 6 weeks) homecooked real food meal. While they played cards

Mom and I went for a bike ride around the lake. This is the house at the end of the street where Mom and Dad live.

It's HUGE and very pretty

Corey said post something

flower at mom's

Jesse started the academy Monday. She was late getting home
so I sent her a text, "are you still at school", text back, "at the Dr."
"what!?!?!" she got dehydrated and she fell doing the monkey bars.
She's fine and went back Tuesday and came home barely able to move.
They ran 5 miles the first day. The 2nd day they ran and they made her
stop and do push ups on the asphalt, ewww. But she went back today.


never thought I'd see these on Jesse

Renny knows he looks good

Millie is a very strange dog.

Happy Corey?

Labor Day

tree frog that scared me on the back door I woke up early, for a day off, and all I could

think was "go for a walk". So I did. I went around

the block once trying to wear Elsie out

and then got Renny to take with us. Renny's easy to walk but Elsie's extremely

strong so I have to get her calmed down some before trying to take both.

garage sale goodies

this is a set I just didn't take them all out

I don't think this has ever been used

I always wanted a Dooney and Burke. Can

you believe $8 and it too looks brand new!


cute bunny tea cups with wooden saucers + 3 other colors, Easter, yay
