Wow!! And yes, these are AS SHOT! ©

…and Still
Allergies are killing me. Doesn’t matter which mask (or masks) I use. Over 40,000. acres so far.
Wildfire
The two fires just west of us in the everglades have taken over 19,000 acres.
My view to the west last night:
Allergies have overtaken me…
The Sky
Okay, I’ve obviously watched too much t.v. Can’t stop looking at the picture.
What I see: clearly, the world is about to end because there’s a mushroom cloud to the north. So, a lion is lifting a bear (really!) to a beautiful fountain to get… what? I get stuck there. Elixir of life? Grape soda??
Hmm…
Little Bit of Everything
The sunset last night…
I just threw Daisy’s babies away. The wee bunnies who looked like the Velveteen Rabbit; loved half to death. It was a wrench.
Yes, we still have Badger, but I’m washing and sorting babies/beds/blankets for donation. Badger doesn’t really care about stuffed toys (though she has them) and won’t use a bed. Weirdo. 😉
The big 6-8 is tomorrow and I’m not ready. My sister declares the entire month of July her month and solicits gifts and tokens of eternal love… and does so with all the joy she possesses. I do so envy her. Me? Birthdays are things to tolerate… speed through. Might be a different matter if I could still eat cake. It’s like a bad lover – just get it over with so I can back to my life.
DaGoddess, if you’re out there, shoot me a text or comment. You’ve been dark too long…
Wee Wings
SICK of IT
Okay, I’m old. Goodness knows it’s shoved in my face on a near consistent basis. Like a survey that lumps everyone 65 and over into one group: the last one. As if all of the 65 and overs are irrelevant to companies/marketing firms.
And this email from LabCorp made me want to press charges:
Are you kidding me?? We get enough geezer mail from “Long Term Care” facilities and funeral homes, fer cripe’s sake!
In other news, I’m sick of the dadgum bamboo! Here we are again, trimming it into a mushroom…
Looks like I need to power clean the pavers again. There’s no rest for the OLD! Take that, LabCorp!!!
Last Weekend
I went crazy on the bamboo.
Who knew bamboo was so messy? Forget the clean up, there are a ton of wee dead leaves to rake. I’ve still got the gift of planting the wrong thing in the wrong place.
On the other hand, if you live in south Florida… Seabreeze bamboo makes for a great divider no one can see through. Just… don’t let it get away from you.
East to West
Taken this morning at 6:30a. Always amazes me how light differs if you turn around!
.
Nope, I didn’t play with them at all… though I wanted to… As shot.
Dishes
My neighbor moved to an apartment and will be traveling quite a bit, so I’m feeding her outside cat.
The kitty’s name is ‘Princess’ and she comes to the food and water dishes… which is amazing to me, since we spent years yelling at her to get off/away from our vehicles.
I wanted to know what else showed up to the food and water, so used an old wildlife camera.
But there are so many other creatures who frequent the buffet. Blue Jays are the usual suspects. Dirty birds! Wish I could find a way to stop them.
Other cats, including a chubby tiger.
And a young possum. He spends quite a lot of time at the trough, and is the only critter I’ve seen drinking!
He’s grown a bit lately but still waddles. Couple of weeks ago he was so off-balance with those big feet (he’s growing into them) walking was comical. I thought he’d fall with every step!
Ah, well. Life goes on.
