[My] Life in Wisconsin

Home and Garden; and The Mella Family!

I didn't do it.
But I sure am thankful for it!

Good Morning All;
As I wrote earlier, Jenny Mella and Casey were here all day Saturday. (I swear I could be half~dead and still be able to appreciate these two when they get together).

Jenny had her priorities straight.
First to play with Punk, who has been more than patient with my inability to play with her in a decent dog~pleasing way.

Then to fill the bird feeder.

She even shared her sock with the dog too.

Punk was adamant to get that sock off her foot...

She had fun brushing the dog and the cat too.

Know that Jenny can make fun out of anything;
(I firmly believe our world absolutely needs more people like her).

After brushing the cat twice, and the dog once,
there is almost another "animal" that came off that brush.

Punk was not too sure what to think of it either.

She worried, and kept her eye on it until it got thrown away.


Yes. There was so much cleaning that got done.
Especially getting things off the floor.
(Gravity is still my enemy).

.

While cleaning under my little computer table, Jenny was attacked by a mouse!

Too funny!

After all was done, the kids were completely pooped out.

They left that evening, Jenny bringing Casey home before coming back out to visit with her own parents. Casey had a bit of pain- generally not an issue any longer, except she had left her pills at home.

.
.

Casey came out yesterday- While we walked a bit, Punk "pointed" to something. Since I have lots of gophers in the back yard, seeing her point was no surprise.
Again, she was of an adamant nature. Casey and I went to see.
A dead red~winged blackbird. It was put to the burn barrel in quick order.

Since Jenny's dad works for the Dept of Natural Resources, Casey called to their house, leaving a message to see if there were any diseases around that we should be concerned about. So last night when my phone rang it was no surprise when Mrs Mella was calling. Mr had said that it was probably a fluke that this bird had died- Sometimes they even wear themselves out with the migration etc.
So I will not worry overmuch about that one.

Mrs also asked if I would like for them to come over and till a bit for me; that maybe Casey might want to plant a few seeds.
Oh what a wonderful offer! Jenny had mentioned to them that I was a bit incapacitated at the moment, and hadn't been able to plant anything.

They were here within minutes!

.
And he made it look so easy too!

And oh, the turned Spring soil smell is wonderful!

518 Mr and Mrs Mella
.
A job done perfectly!
I thank you all, again!
This is an awesome family!
.
.
I am itching to be playing and planting in that same soil... But I know I shouldn't do too much yet. My back, though a wee bit improved, still is pretty nasty- (and yes, I did rest).
Lordy, I practically slept on and off all night Saturday, and Sunday too. I just turned the TV on and fell asleep before my programs were even finished. I record my silly shows, so that is no problem for me.

I hope you are all having a grand week!
Rain, maybe, today- And time now for me to get in the shower-
Be back soon!

Love to all.

XOXO
Me
