[My] Life in Wisconsin

Halloween and Sunshine!

 magnify
I will post more Halloween pictures in my private album later...

.

Good November Afternoon!
Chilly today; compared to yesterdays more mild temps in the 60's.
And I tried to make the very most of it.
I did get Kelli's lawn cut, (after literally HOURS of waiting for my anxiety levels to go down sufficiently enough just to get some gas for the Cub Cadet).
What nasty things these are...
Almost suffocating; and most assuredly stifling...
.
.
So; by the time I could go, I felt compelled to get dressed for the day too.
.
.
Cnv0747 by you.
And down the road I went on that little rider mower.
.
.
.
Happy to say that no one drove in the ditch;
although their horns honked very well.
hehehe.
.
.
.
.
When I got to Kelli's,
the first thing that greets me is this guy...

.
.
Cnv0723 by you.
..
Black cats are simply awesome!
.
.
.
.
I thought the horses might be afraid of my costume...

.
.
May and Breeze by you.
But neigh, they were not afraid,
only nosy...

hehehe
.
.
They watched for a while, up by the gate to see if maybe I would throw some extra treats their way. That didn't happen, so they mosied on back to graze some more.
(I won't mention that their leaving directly and immediately coincided with my belting out the final na~nahs of "Me and Bobby McGee").
♫... na na nah, na na na nah; na na na na na na nah...
.
.
Oh well!
And time to head home; ~~for the year!

I still have lawn to cut here, but at 48 degrees and breezy, it will keep for a while.
I hate being cold. And no, I will not cut lawn all bundled up.

On 2nd thought, maybe I will do just that... (Gotta get my sunshine)!
Besides, it won't keep 'til we get back from Caseys appointment at the University of Minnesota.

Love to all.
Have a 'wunnaful' ~and sunshiney~ weekend!

XOXO
Anne

  7. Anne I can see you now.............dressed as a clown....driving down the way on a lawn mower!
    My son got some odd looks and honks too. One in particular from another man who was driving and was dressed as V from Vendetta. He gave my son the thumbs up and a nod. I love seeing people have fun with dressing up. Grown ups can have fun with it too.

    And don't black cats just make it seem more like Halloween. They have that mysterious look about them being all black with those eyes shining.

    (Would I have to wear that all year then)???
    YOKES!

    XOXO
    Me

    And here's the words then so you can have ALL of them stuck in your head!



    Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' fer a train
    When I's feeling nearly faded as my jeans
    Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained
    And rode us all the way to New Orleans
    I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
    I's playing soft while Bobby sung the blues, n-yeah
    Windshield wipers slapping time I's, holding Bobby's hand in mine
    We sang every song that driver knew

    Freedom's just another word for nothing left to loose
    Nothing, I mean nothing honey if it ain't free, no no
    Yeah feeling good was easy Lord when he sang the blues
    You know feeling good was good enough for me
    Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.

    From Kentucky coal mine to the California sun
    Yeah Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
    Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done
    Yeah Bobby baby kept me from the cold world
    One day a near Selina Lord, I let him slip away
    He's lookin' for that home, and I hope he finds it
    But I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday
    To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

    Freedom's just another word for nothing left to loose
    Nothing, and that's all that Bobby left me, yeah
    But feeling good was easy Lord when he sang the blues
    Hey feeling good was good enough for me, hmm-mm
    Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

    La da la la la, la da la la la da la
    La da da la la la Bobby McGee yeah
    La da la la la, la da la la la da la
    La da da la la la Bobby McGee yeah
    La da la la la, la da la la la da la
    La da da la la la Bobby McGee yeah
    Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
    Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
    Lo lo lo lo lo lo Bobby McGee
    Lo lo lo lo lo lo Bobby McGee

    Lord I called him my lover, I called him my man
    I said called him my lover just the best I can and c'mon
    And and a Bobby oh, and a Bobby McGee yeah
    Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
    Hey hey hey Bobby McGee, lord.

    La da la la la, la da la la la la la
    Hey hey hey Bobby McGee yeah

    (Sorry I do the "nana's version)...
    hehehe

  14. Sweet Bug; (or shall I call you Brat #2)?
    hehehe

    The times are few and far between that the lawns actually need mowing at the end of October. Mostly this happens because people don't mow when they are occupied elsewhere.
    hehehe

    Even cold and frozen temps do not stop the grass from growing.

  15. Sweet SlurkieBaby;
    "Cute" has not been an adjective for this clown. (Least ways, not in a long time)...

    Crazy???

    ME???

    Bite your tongue. (I liked 'cute' better).

    You are on my list of to do's.
    This Cub Cadet LIKES knee high grass. ('Round here it's illegal).

    We leave tomorrow.
    Are you going to miss me?

    XOXO
    "Me"

  16. Sweet RT!

    Mr Miller wasn't sure if he liked it or not.

  18. Sweet PeachieBaby!
    It was rather busy at that time. (About 3). And yes, I live on a County Highway, so there was lots of traffic.
    Glad you could picture it all and get the whole idea!
    hehehe

    I have always had fun dressing up...
    And have a nuns habit I can put on ANYtime... ???

    Jack is the perfect black cat for Halloween. And you are right, what would it have been without him?

    XOXO
    Me

  19. hehehe Sweet Beep!
    I like her voice because I have no problem with her voice range.
    And I basically love anything hippy~ish too!

    Now was it mental telepathy, or why were you thinking of her too?

    Hope you are having fun in Arkansas.
    You got out of Dodge just in time to miss the earthquake!

    I do live in the country!
    Which is very nice, until winter that is...
    hehehe

    Go check some of my photo albums and pics, and/or read my little intro on the top page.

    You should move here. (I could always use and extra back for shovelling the white stuff).
    And as an added bonus for me, I could get used to the smells in the place as you make your soaps and such!

    XOXO
    Me

  26. Oh and they were very prompt here.
    Prompt to collect their $ too.
    Been going round and round with them as they raised my rates when the original contract expired.
    (Still mad about that).

    But I still love my dish tv too.

    Just remember to have patience with the remote.
