How about you???

Do you ever feel like a fish???

swimming around in a bowl....

but not really going any where...

just swim...swim...and swim some more...

some days do you feel like the more you do....

the more you have to do....

It's been a busy week...

do you ever feeling like just hiding your face???

maybe then no one will see you....

  you can take a breather...

for just a few minutes....

no phones...no TV's...no noise at all...

just a little peace and quiet....

enjoying the beauty around you....

What would you do????

A friend told me she takes a long drive....

just to get away and clear her head....

How about you???

The love of veggies

squash.....

okra....

tomatoes....

oh how I love the veggies...

but when you have veggies...

grasshoppers and other insects show up...

 when you have veggies...

you need lots of water....

especially in this Texas heat....

I sucked it up....

Hubby watering his Dad's garden...

so of course I had a little photo shoot...

I sure thought about putting the camera up...

and running through the water...

it was 103 at that time...

but being the blogger I am...

I sucked it up...

and took photos to share with you...

Today is the first day of summer...

 we got rain.....

doing my happy dance....

Mockingbird Hill....

Tra la la, tweedle dee dee dee

It gives me a thrill

To wake up in the morning

To the mockingbird's trill

Tra la la tweedle dee dee dee

There's peace and good will

You're welcome as the flowers

On Mockingbird Hill

When it's late in the evening I climb up the hill

And survey all my kingdom while everything's still

Only me and the sky and an old whippoorwill

Singin' songs in the twilight on Mockingbird Hill

I've been seeing a lot of Mockingbirds...

and they are quite the show offs...

I guess that is why they are the state bird....

of TEXAS....

Tra la la, tweedle dee dee dee

It gives me a thrill

busy street

Early morning is the time to do your outside activities...

watering...mowing...weeding...etc.

I was out enjoying my morning routine...

someone else was out early too...

tree trimmers...

they were trimming the limbs around the power lines...

it was sure noisy....

they were all over the neighborhood....

after they cut the limbs...

they threw them in the grinder....

they went from tree to tree...

trim...trim...trim...

Little Britches and I didn't get to take our normal walk...

but we did go out and watch for a while...

he is boy through and through...

loved watching it....

another adventure at Oma's.....

Fathers day....

sometimes it's hard for me to believe...

that my little boy is all grown up..

seems like yesterday he was a baby...

now he is a Daddy...

I'm so proud of him...

he takes such good care of little britches...

he changes diapers...feeds...dresses...

bathes...takes to the Dr.....

his Little Britches...

he was in the delivery room....

It makes my heart swell...

to see my baby take such good care of his baby...

Happy 1st Fathers Day Dude....

I'm so proud of you...

Love.....Momma.....

some of my flowers are going to seed..

I'm collecting the seeds to re-plant....

and to pass on...

our garden is providing a few veggies for us...

maybe some squash soon...

the hot weather and lack of rain is draining ....

to us and the plants....

but I'm not going to complain....

it could be much worse....

nope not rain clouds...

but they did hold the sun off for a little while...

do you have big plans for Father's Day?

we're taking the Dad's to breakfast on Sunday...

Trees...and gum.....I'm rambling again...

the nice thing about living on a old street...

is you have old trees...

I enjoy looking at trees...

I'm not good on the names of them...

except the basic trees...

and when you have trees...

you have more birds...squirrels...critters...

so you know that means more photos....

more stories to tell....

do you like chewing gum?

are you a sugar free fan?

do you like regular gum?

I tend to go for the regular gum....

Wrigleys in the green package...

Whatever happened to Wrigleys in the white package?

I never liked the wrigleys in the yellow package...

My Nana used to have all three in her purse....

Do you like cinnamon gum?

What the heck happened to bubble gum?

Don't you remember how it would last forever...

and all the big bubbles you could blow with it...
