Living in Seattle






I've been living in Seattle since Wednesday. Not doing the tourist thing--I'm just enjoying being with the kids. And yes, I'm coming home to Ohio today. Here are a few pics:
1) I'm a little bleary-eyed from the 3 hour time change. Brad and Joe, and Brad's lovely friend, Rachel are getting ready to go to "Seattle Nails" with me for the boys birthday treat.
2) Brad gives a "thumbs up" on his pedicure.
3) Lisa and I cut out 1 million snowflakes for the visual crew at Anthropologie. We are loving it!
4) The slackers.
5) Lola sleeps more than my cats!
Hope you enjoyed the photos. I had a good time, too. Joe & Lisa picked me up from the boondocks airport and had all day off Wednesday with me. Lisa and I spent Thursday together, Brad and I had Friday, and we all spent the whole day Saturday together: Top Pot donuts, Brad helped me pick out my own digital camera --maybe I'll get it for Christmas? Then we went to the antique mall by Pioneer Square--Rachel is all about vintage so that was really fun. Many trips to Pike Street Mkt. I loved it.
Thanks for checking in on me!

Ferree - I enjoyed your photos and blog. Sleepless is Seattle, huh? Get some rest back home. If there is any hope for Ohio State to get knocked off of its lofty #1 position in Big Ten Football, it will be up to my alma mater schools - Illinois and Michigan. Big games if you are a college football fan like me. Regardless of those outcomes, we can still be friends and cousins across state lines. -Johnny :)

Outdoor Visitors

Tom was burning some brush at the back of our lot early this evening. I walked back there to talk to him, and lo and behold---a big wild turkey came walking out of the woods on the lot across from us! I thought maybe he smelled the smoke and decided to check it out. And he didn't seem in too much of a hurry, but he picked up the pace when he saw us. A minute later, we saw some more movement where the turkey was, and a coyote peered over at us. He turned around after eyeballing us. I think maybe he was following that meaty looking turkey. I never know what I'll see out here!   And this little thing was inside the screened-in porch today. The green anole made it out alive yesterday, so I guess word is out---Fud isn't a threat! Those are NOT my fingers in the picture.

Jennifer Lawrence interview on David Letterman HD - November 20, 2013 I've never been a fan of a real-life movie star (Bambi isn't real). But after watching this interview last night I just might! This girl's hilarious!

New Pets

My garden failed in everything except a pot of parsley. Last week I noticed tiny green beads stuck to the parsley leaves, and a few days later some small black caterpillars, and now.... PETS! Yep. Pet caterpillars. Not Monarchs, though. They kind of look like the Monarch butterfly caterpillar, but these are Black Swallowtail butterfly caterpillars. Love the parsley. They totally destroyed my plant so I bought them some from the grocery store. I put the stems in a cup of water and it's holding up well enough---at the rate they're going they might eat it all before it wilts anyway! I wish I'd taken their pictures on Wednesday when they were less than 1" long. Now they're a good 2" long. Let me introduce you:   This one is named Parsley. Start up the music for Scarborough Fair. Sage. Rose, Mary, and And (yes, one of them is named And. Scroll down and see if you guessed why I named it And). Thymes Seven. Yes, this last one is named S...
