I Get Side-Tracked

It's true.

Instead of diligently writing stuff like I should, I monkey around and show off my 2 accomplishments this summer. Scroll down to the next 2 posts for the amazing footage. Be glad that I did NOT include my video adventure shot in Michigan entitled "Chicken Love."

Oh, here's another accomplishment: I kept Miss Hiss alive long enough for her far-more responsible owner to come get her. Aside from flea poop she must have picked up from you-know-who (Fudd, not me), she's thriving and happy to be back in her royal domain.
This is Mimzie and Miss Hiss the cat, just to prove that she didn't die on me as I feared she would.
WRITING UPDATE: I sent a little email to each editor that requested my book proposal in 2006. Guess what? (drum roll . . .) They're all not editors anymore! I'm laughing my head off, thump thump. It bounces! And I do, too. I'll keep at it. Please be praying about a change in my work schedule that will better maximize my writing hours. I promise to make better use of my time!

What a great care giver you were to her. I never thought once that she would die in your care. Craig may have wished it, but poo on him. Maybe he will get her fleas.

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...
