The Smell, Large Mouth, Lily and Misty at Bedtime, Naptime, Reading, Little Devils and the Heart

 

Good morning,

since I blog ahead of

 time, sometimes,

I am writing this on

Thursday. So, good 

Thursday morning!

I got my Medicare thingy

in the mail the other day, and 

walking from the mailbox to the 

house, the SMELL caught my 

NOSE. haha

I have years and years of

printing under my belt. 

With that, I LOVE THE SMELL
OF INK!

So much so, I opened the book

when I got in the house

and buried my head!

Once I was high on the ink smell I 

went fishing, and caught a large 

mouth.

Kidding, I caught   

shot this a couple

days before. 

I have seen fish mailboxes

but I saw this on one of my

back road adventures and since

folks around here have NO sense

of style when it comes to 

decorating mailboxes, 

I decided to shoot 

this and include it in my 

FB albums. 

Not sure what the deal was

going on Wed. night but I 

was so tired, that 

my girls and I hit the 

sack at 7:30pm.

WHAT? I normally can't fall

asleep that early. Don't get 

me wrong, I can sleep anytime, 

until I head to bed. I fall asleep

on the couch watching tv., I go

to bed, wide awake for hours.

But, Wed. night I did not 

do that, I fell off to 

sleep right away and was

a little ticked at the girls 

at 4:30 am when they wanted

me to get up and feed them.

Oh wait, that story was

headed somewhere...

Oh yeah, this is Lily Bit

curled up with me at 7:30pm 

Wed. night to sleep. 

And Misty right beside me,

staring at me until she

decided to lay her head down to 

go night, night.

But that does lead to 

a question, what are cats thinking

when they sit and star at you 

for the longest? On 

Wed., I did try to 

take a nap, however, 

Misty sat, straight up,

posed in the most 

regal sat, looking 

down on me while I

 tried to go to 

sleep. 

It is hard when you are

being watched. 

I laid that a couple of mins when 

I opened my eyes to see her still 

there, looking right at me,

staring at me.

I closed them again, a min or 

two when I opened them again, 

to see she has not moved.

This went on about four times

when I finally busted out laughing

and got up. 

Was she watching over me, 

or plotting how to get rid of me?

 

Silly cat.

I have tried to get back into

reading at night before bedtime but

having issues, I think I am addicted

to tv.

I read the first cook of 

the Chronicles of THE ONE.

The first was good, about a virus

that comes through out and kills

a lot of folks. The second one did not

get my attention as well

But, I have found where usually 

the second of books or movies

are usually not as good as the first.

But, I did finish the second one and 

back to the library it will go today 

since it was due on Wed. 

Does your area have to deal with 

these beast?

FIRE ANTS?

Devils from under the earth. 

These things pop up overnight.

I treated one with the fire ant

powder that I bought last spring, 

when I was treating them daily.

Had no issues through

 the summer but

they are back so I started 

treating again. But 

they are popping

up so fast. The second 

one in the 

yard got treated differently. 

Although, I

hate killing even these 

things, I boiled

water on the stove and 

poured it down the 

tunnel of their dirt home.

I read that this 

would actually

get down to the

 queen, the powder 

alerts the workers that

 something is up,

and they go grab the 

queen, carrying

her under the ground 

to a safer spot.

The water, hits, travels

 and hopefully

gets to her before 

the workers do.

Course, either way, 

they are gone, 

either moved or dead, 

we will never

know. 

Am I still seeing hearts?

Yep, this one surprised

me though. While I sat

on my porch, with my 

cousin, while she smoked,

I looked up and there it 

was.

 

 Imprinted as a 

defect in the wood 

on my porch.

And look how perfect 

it is. 

Thank you for

stopping over,

Pam
