[My] Life in Wisconsin

10 Thoughts- (It's Still Tuesday)...

  magnify
This picture is damn hilarious
I needed the smile...
.

Good Evening Everyone...

# 1.
I'm hungry-
Not the "I could use a sandwich hungry", but tummy~rumbling~hungry.
Nothing I have on hand will take care of this. And I will NOT be visiting any of your blogs if you say the "f" word... (food)
Only a very thick, very rare, well marbled, fresh steak would help.

Casey took this picture as we drove through the field
and stole a few veggies.

.

But I shouldn't have stolen the melon-
God got me for that...

Sadly, I am STILL craving a fresh watermelon...

# 2.
Something about tonight has me upset.
One of those weird and inexplicable feelings an unfavorable kismet; an unwelcome sword of damocles...
(I think of the garage door that almost fell on my head once).

Gratefully these feelings do not happen often. But on nights like this I am almost afraid to close my eyes to sleep, and am happy that Casey lives with Greg.

It also makes me very thankful for my dogs-
One outside.
One in.
Neither of them tiny nor incapable.
There is a real sense of safety with them here.
...(And then there is always my shotgun)...
.

# 3.
I have too much stuff in the old shed-

And I have yet to post my sale in the paper...

# 4.
I took an awesome picture at Kelli's the other night-
.
.
Cnv1158
Not of the horses,
but of the strangest orbs I have ever seen...
I have left it full size for you.

The sun was setting.
Breeze and May awaited their supper.

.

# 5.
Kelli has just gotten tickets to the Monday Night Season Opener in Green Bay...
I am almost jealous!
More, I am so happy for her!

.
.
# 6.
I am missing my parents...
.
.
Cnv2064.......Cnv2063
They were such good people
..Somewhere they still are!


.

# 7.
I broke my little air pump.
The front left tire on the Cub Cadet goes flat every now and then.
I had a bit to mow, west of the old garage, and the tire was flat.
.
.

Cnv1189
The pump itself seems to have had a blowout.
It is dead.

Thankfully garbage day is tomorrow...
Even more thankfully, my neighbor came and inflated my tire!
.

# 8.
I don't know how these flowers remain alive during this drought...
.
.

Cnv1175 .
But I am glad they do remain so pretty.

# 9.
I gave birth 30 years ago this morning...

8 pounds, 14 ounces,
23 ½ inches long.

Happy Birthday, Jenne.

# 10.
I think my thyroid pills give me gas.
.
.

Have a grand rest of tonight- and a better tomorrow!

XOXO
Me

  1. More orbs?? Hmmm....I first thought those were water droplets. Those are odd.

    Your thyroid pills give you gas?? I have enough of that without any kind of pills! LOL!

    Went over to 360 a while ago. It is still one big ole mess over there. I wonder what will become of it.

  3. Ok I must admit..that's the sickest watermelon I've ever seen hehe.

    I stopped and clicked on your "too much stuff in your shed" link and yanno what??..It took me to edit my profile..wth is that??? LOL :))..funny.

    I know that yucky feeling you get deep inside..sometimes it's hard to shake.

    I'm lovin' the orbs..they look soothing and safe.

    I'm sorry you're missing your parents..I still have both of mine and I'm so thankful for them although I haven't seen them in 2 yrs we're still very close in heart and soul.

    RIP tire pump..

    The flowers are beautiful as always!!!

    Happy Belated B-day to Jenne!!!

    Have a great night my friend xoxo

  6. Mmmmmmm Steak. We grow our own in TX. Happy Birthday Jenne. We also believe in shotguns in TX. And Handguns and M80s 40odd six bazookas 40 cal. I could go on. My husband's greatest fear is running our of ammo. There are a lot of very real monsters out there.
    Hope all is better by the light of the morning.

  7. Trust me Sweet PeachieBaby, when I say we have had no discernible rain or water in the air for a long long time.
    The horses had sort of slithered out of the way when I snapped that one- There wasn't even a breeze...
    I thought it odd too.

    XOXO
    me

  8. Sweet Thers;
    Well I had to blame it on something... (maybe the cravings).
    Or maybe just I should go with Peachies explanation...
    hehehe

    Sorry you are ill. This too shall pass you know.

    XOXO

  9. hehehe
    Sweet WyckieBaby...
    I swear that melon was ripe when I picked it.
    (God did that just cuz I stole it out of the field).

    Sorry about the 'stuff' link. Yahoo sucks. I should have known.
    So I just put the pics in the blog...

    Yucky feeling passed when I woke at 4 with a migraine.
    Barfed that all up, and am ok today.
    (It does too make sense)!

    You are VERY lucky to have your parents in the flesh.
    Cherish every conversation and thought...

    XOXO

  13. Sweet Sheri;
    I didn't KNOW they would pull that and ask people to join...
    Kind of funny when one of my friends here is from Malaysia!

    Unless I would have gone out and slaughtered someones cow, there is no fresh steak in my house.
    So it will wait.

    That darned pump- all it did was slide up and down, and NO AIR!
    It is now at the end of the driveway with other things that have dared to p*ss me off...
    hehehe

    Glad you really do like my pictures and stuff. I always wonder if I post too many...

    XOXO
    Me

  14. All is better Sweet SD;
    The sun came up this morning and everything!

    That steak does sound good... Maybe when I go down to Alabama in November I shall swing over for a meal of red meat.

    hehehe Your husbands greatest fear is running out of ammo?
    I would think his greatest fear would be p*ssing off his wife with all those guns laying around...

    Monsters?
    Like the dead chupacabra I have in the woods?
    Or the MONSTER of a baby I delivered 30+ years ago?

    XOXO
    Me

  15. Those orbs seem to follow you everywhere.

    Is it Big Foot season? Is that what has you feeling weird? (Hence the top picture.)

    I would be more than happy to send you some rain. It's been raining here for 4 days with no end in site.

    Tummy pains are going around. I had such bad indigestion (or gas?) at work last night I was doubled over with pain. I've never been in such pain!

    Your garage sale is going to be one super sale! Your garage looks like a mini department store!

    Sorry about your deceased pump and karmic watermelon.

    HB to Jenne

    BTW, I don't know if you caught the update I posted on my refinance... the bank has withdrawn their approval on my loan. Illegal, but since they're a big bank I guess they'll probably get away with it. (sigh)

  16. Your storage shed looks VERY neat. Is that sewing machine a Singer? I think I have one just like it but not with it's own sewing cuboard. Actually I have four machines one being the Singer that has embrodiery cams.

    ReplyDelete
  17. hehehe
    Sweet RT;
    Om my, no I have not seen your newest blog... I shall be there shortly.

    The bigfoot thing came via an email... And it struck me as hilarious!

    I actually watered the lawn between the driveways. If anyone is going to play volleyball on Labor Day I wanted something soft. It should green up by then.
    I hope.

    I did get rid of a bunch of stuff just by putting the sale sign out... That and I always get to see some of the neighbors that wouldn't stop in otherwise.
    I also had an awful panic attack at one point, but we won't revisit that right now.
    The pics only cover about an eighth of what is out there. Still have bags and boxes to get marked and out for sale. Had no room. What got sold last week made room for a bit more anyway.

    Karmic melon!
    hehehe
    Damn. why didnt I think of that???
    Too funny!

    About those tummy pains... Just go outside and fart.
    Or were the tummy pains such that you may have been afraid to?
    hehehe

    Hope all is better.

    XOXO
    me

  18. hehehe
    Sweet Judy
    Confession time.
    I too have 4 machines!
    Too funny!
    (Oh and an old treadle too)!

    and yes, that is the Singer with all the cams!
    Cool eh?
    Mama bought it new;
    ~Methinks she used an entire milk check for it too!

    I have trouble with the tension adjustment...
    Mom did too.
    I gave up on it.

    XOXO
    Me

  19. I have been looking for one like that. I wish I lived closer I would buy it from you if you don't want or use it.

    ReplyDelete
  20. The info about the refinance is in an old blog "GOOD NEWS! (UPDATE)"

    I would have loved to have let one r-i-p-p-p! Only I couldn't - that was probably the problem. I think I might have developed a momentary (3 hour!) blockage of some sort. I'm OK now, but Gez that was a long 3 hours!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Sweet Judy!
    hehehe
    There is always mail or UPS ya know...

    But what about the tension adjustments?

    Besides, I would LOVE to have it go to someone who actually would use it.
    (Like YOU I mean)...
    The cabinet I just picked up years ago, at a rummage sale for $10.00.
    Mom was jealous then!
    hehehe

    XOXO

  22. hehehe about the gas... When I get like that I just walk/run/twist and shout!
    Always works for me!

    I did find your posting... and commented too.
    I would have done so sooner, but company came.
    Sorry about that.

    XOXO
    Me

  23. Come on over, we'd love to have you......FOR DINNER!!! MMHUUUHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! Just kidding. We'll go steal and angus from the Hatfields, and tell them it was the McCoys.

  24. Good afternoon Bart,

    Sorry.. its way past Tuesday... sorry sorry

    I been wanting a steak too... havent had it yet.. one day soon..

    Hows the sale going? Hope you make lots and lots of money!

    Those are some wicked orbs.. I thought at first it might have been raining.. that might cause such a shot.

    Well, since you broke your air pump maybe the thyroid pills is the answer.. just bottle the gas..hehe
    Those flowers are beautiful.. what are they called?.. I have seen them before but never seem to remember.

    Hope your having an awesome weekend! Hugs

  26. Sweet Beep!
    $ale has been steady/busy... But that is a good thing...
    And no, I haven't made tons of money, but there is hope that the Labor Day Picnic will be ON once again too.

    Those orbs aren't wicked...
    But they do look like one-eyed smiley-faces, don't they?
    hehehe
    Nope no rain then, although we did get a few sprinkles yesterday!
    Say YAY! (We need MUCH MUCH more though too).

    Purple Coneflowers? aka Echinacea.
    And Black~Eyed~Susans

    Love to you both!
    Sure hope that fever is gone...
    hehehe
