I pulled in the driveway the other day and saw this beauty flying around  my Cosmos. I was hard clicking a pic because  the beauty was all over those flowers. When I went to Hermitage for Mikes honoring of life, I decided to bounce between the homes I lived in. My childhood home, I moved into this home at the amazing of age of 6. I did not move out till I was 20. However, after the loss of my mom, I  bought my brothers out of their portion and  moved back. Problem, more house then I needed, too big to keep up, 50 some odd years old and things were starting to go wrong. Yard was a killer. And no matter what I did, I could not make this home mine, it  was always going to be mom's home. Between the move from the childhood home, I moved across town where I lived in an apartment. I was pregnant, married, and did not like it. I needed to be close to home. lol I also rented two duplexs and  a home. Then my ex and I bought this home, our first home. 1100 sq. foot, ...

Cartoon Character or Bad Botox, Lunch with T, Visit with Binx and Kevin, and Purrs

I went searching for a pic that said, "Welcome to August",  when I found this. Thinking this is missing a letter. WARNING This post includes HORRIBLE pics.  Continue at your own risk of  laughter. Cartoon character pic of me, or bad botox job? NOPE... this is what happens when  you are headed in one direction  and a blue black wasp is headed towards you. You don't see it, it flies right into you and  BAM... damn little sucker got me. Pain was instant and HORRIBLE. This event, just another chapter in my life took place on Wednesday evening as I was headed out to weed eat some on the yard. I almost hit my knees on the  front porch. Allergy pill and ice. Next day which was Thursday. And Friday. Top lip still pretty messed up, those dangling jaws are still  swollen. Going to get allergy  shot so maybe I can worm my way into a fast see by the doc.
