89/365 - Chalk of the Walk

Over the weekend, it was so nice out that Camden and Chloe had some fun in the front yard with chalk, the sidewalk and a tree.  I am loving the nice weather.  We kept our window open overnight, woo hoo!

88/365 Growing Growing Growing

My seeds are growing at work.  The soil is not getting warm enough, but they are getting plenty of light.  Not doing what I want, but now I want to see how big the plants will get just from the light.  Next test, flower seeds.

81/365 - My Mafia or Yours

I am addicted to Facebook games - Mafia Wars, Cafe World, Farmtown, Farmville, Countrylife...just to name a few.

It is a mindless way to wake up in the morning or to relax before I go to bed at night.  I know I shouldn't, but I just can't help myself!

79/365 - Micro-farming

I am going to try growing veggies at work.  I have some great lighting above my desk, so I thought it would be fun to see what would happen if I started some seeds at work.  I bought some cute little containers to brighten up my cubicle land.

I am trying basil, carrots, swiss chard, and French radishes.  I am not expecting much, but it will be fun!

73/365 - Mom's Rear End

My mom was in an accident on Saturday.  Thankfully, she wasn't hurt bad, she has an appointment with the doctor tomorrow.  The car doctor says her car is totaled.  boo hiss  Hopefully, she gets enough to buy a decent car to replace it.  But you never know with insurance companies.

70/365 - The Doctor's Office

I had an appointment at the Chiropractors today.  I don't know why, but there is something so relaxing about sitting in the chair with a heat pack on my shoulders and the little patches of electric jolts, it makes me doze off every time!  This is what I look at when I open my eyes.

69/365 - Lots and lots of puppies

I had fun taking pictures of the dogs today.

Here is little Bella!




Little Tatters!
For some reason when I try and take a picture of Rafferty's face, he is licking.  


Little Sophie!

I love this picture of Sophie, she was barking and trying to get the camera.

67/365 - The Joy of Melting Snow

While I can't wait for springtime to arrive, one of the things I hate most about the coming Spring is the snow melting and everywhere you look puddles of water.

This is how our alley looks, one huge puddle from one end to the other!  YUCK!!

66/365 - Keep Calm and Have a Cupcake

This is my favorite bookmark.  I found it at Barnes and Noble in Racine, WI.  Not only is it my favorite color pink, but it is just too cute.

If you want to read more about the original saying, Keep Calm and Carry On, you can visit the wiki page:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keep_Calm_and_Carry_On.

65/365 - Cuddle bug

I skipped a day yesterday, it just got ahead of me.  Oh well, I am back on track.  Here is how I spent the day, I was online surfing the web and setting up my new laptop and Sophie and Rafferty slept on the chair with me.  I couldn't get a picture of Rafferty, he jumped down when I tried to grab the camera and take his picture.  But Sophie didn't care, she slept away.  Lazy dog!

63/365 - Busy Town

I love Busy Town by Richard Scarry.  The characters are so cute.  When McDonald's gave away the Richard Scarry characters and cars, I had to have a set.  I have been carting them around with me for years.
