Knock Knock. Who’s There? Deer. Deer Who? Deer! Everyday . . . Deer visit me. They are eating every bush and tree that resides in our yard. I can go outside, and almost be right on top of them . . . they don’t care! I took these pictures through the glass on the side […]

I love fall.  It’s makes me feel good, even though I’ve had the stomach flu for a couple of days.  This poor blog has been neglected . . . I guess I just can’t handle two blogs at the same time. This video motivated me to “Get Off My butt and Write.” Everytime I type that […]

Since I officially DO NOT have a life, outside of the walls of our Garden . . . I thought I’d share. My hubbie is out there at about 5:00 A.M. on the dot . . . EVERY MORNING! I however feel the need to put on Makeup and do my hair before joining him. […]

I’m almost embarrassed to post pictures of beautiful little ones, since I have daughters who are fantastic photographers.  They will simply have to look the other way, because these are too cute to not share! While babysitting, I tried really hard to capture a few moments. Trying to photograph these two little busy beavers . . .

Yesterday, I went on a ride. I was smart this time.  I actually remembered to bring my camera and my Canon EOS 7D book for Dummies!  I’ve learned quite a lot from reading that book.  It didn’t have a Chapter about how to take good pictures through a bug filled windshield, however.  See . . […]

I’m convinced. Convinced that if my hubbie had to choose between me and . . . the garden, He would certainly choose . . . the garden! I’d like you to meet Pete.    Pete’s the newest member of our family. He’s the “Keeper of the Seed.” His job is 24-7. As my hubbie puts […]

 I realize that naming this section of my site, GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND WRITE . . . has simply failed me . In fact, a few people that shall remain nameless (Berta ) have reminded me tactfully of this fact.  I think I’m grateful for a life too boring to write about!  Days back, weeks ago […]

OH CRAP!  The power is off.  Puter dies. Head for the garage, where your better half  lives most of the time. “Honey . . . did you do that?” Better half laughs – laughs some more – rolls the eyes. Shut garage door.  Swear he has something to do with power outage! Funny . . […]

 The fact that I’m now posting to “Get Off Your Butt and WRITE” . . . almost seems like a miracle to me.  I know, it’s just a blog, but moving files from Blogger to WordPress.Org is a daunting process, for someone who knows absolutely NOTHING about hosting your own website!  I’ve learned some big […]

Hi all! Sorry for my lack in posting lately. MY WEBSITES HAVE MOVED! I’ve been a bit under the weather….ugg I’ve also been remodeling a bit. Here’s hoping these new sites are a bit more user friendly. I still have some kinks to work out. The name hasn’t changed on my baking blog, it’s still Get […]

Pardon my french, but I have a cold and a cough from HELL, and my throat is hosting a steak barbecue! I’ve actually had a cough for 2 months now . . . literally.  Ask my kids, they will tell you I’m not lying.  I get this dang cough about three times a year. I’ve always thought it’s […]
