Happy Birthday, Grass, Stary Night, Emmy, Another House, Charcoal Drawing, Chairs, Rack and a Sweet Note

Happiest Birthday to 

AMERICA!

Be safe out there today

and this evening.

Photo challenge today is 

GRASS!

 Rural Tn.

No street lights, no 

porch lights, 

just the amazing light 

from the starts above.

I sat down for a break between scrubbing the dining room 

and kitchen, thought maybe I would 

do a post, BUT, I actually have

no pics to share. I have been busy doing

some cleaning and picking up, no pics!

My house guest will be going home

Sunday, YAY!

I knew Emmy Lou had her issues,

but a week of this and I have had

enough. 

She will not go out unless I 

go with her.

She will not get off the porch till

I tell her to.

Then she will stand on the sidewqlk, 

just looking up at me. 

I have to tell her to go to

the bathroom before she will

go. Then back to the walkway,

till I tell her to come on,

then she jump up on the porch,

but will not go in first, so holding

the door open for her don't work.

I have to step in first.

She hovers and mercy, 

she just stands in the way

and will not move. I almost

have to run her down to get

her to move.

Remember the house on the

way to my house, the one I told

you I did a watercolor of and sent

it to them. Like I told you, daffodils,

then to iris, and then daylilies. The daylilies 

in there yard are actually hanging on a bit

longer than mine did, but they are 

drying up now,

and guess what, she has now,

gladiolus. 

I would stop and take pics of 

each blooming season but it's too hard

to do that where the house is, 

but I think next yr I will pull

over in front of their

house and do each time blooms change

from on the other.

Check out this house.

It is down the road from me in 

the other direction then I normally

travel, but I do like going that way when

I can.

I need to go back that way and 

check out the house numbers so 

that I get the info straight.

The house on the left feels to me

to be an old home. 

The large house, a garage like

in the center and then the smaller

house, which to me appears to 

be like a bunk house. 

Up back behind the trees,

is yet another home.

I figure this is one family living

out among all this land.

Looking at zillow 

I am finding that it appears

to divided up in the several pieces.

Once I get the correct addresses

I can feel you in on the acres and 

when it was built. Problem is, 

with all the houses spread out

in a rural area, then along comes

along a builder and sticks a house

in between the others.

So, I am not sure really how house

numbers go when that happens. 

There are some amazing places

out here, and some not so amazing.

I learned living out in rural land,

there is a mismatch of houses and 

mismatch people. There are some 

places that you go past to get to me,

and it looks like a 3rd world country.

Been doing those things on FB

that takes your pic and its either

painted or sketched. 

Wow....to be as young as I look in 

this drawing.

I was at Wally World the other day

and I got tickled over this

These chairs sale

for 44.97, these are big

butt chairs.

Now these below are 

cheaper, cause they are

not as wide, they are for skinny

butt people.

Big difference in a few inches.

Now, how about this,

Do you remember these?

When I was young and newly married,

I had one of these. But now a lot 

of money flowing in so for 

decorating I relied on my 

out of the box thinking,

I embroidered on unbleached 

muslin some little froggies,

cut the embroidery pieces out

and tacked them to the backside

of the rack and hung it in 

my bathroom.

Course, I did not give that 

kind of price for it.

A few weeks ago while I was at Ambers, 

hanging with Evie, I was given this.

Bless that little girl.

It reads left to right, 

"I love you nana Pam".

It's on my fridge for all to see.

Have an amazing day,

hug someone,

find something to laugh

about, and when you do, 

laugh often, laugh loud

and laugh hard,

Pam
