we have babies...!

got the call last night from Jane...
3 bottle feeders needed a foster home...
we met them at Rural King where the Humane Society was having another adoption day...
I had to go this morning to the doctor...
so we did Walmart and the CVS...
and headed on over to pick up the critters...
they are about 3 weeks old...
just getting their milk teeth...
Bebe is the master sitter...
he will sleep by their cage and guard them from all others...
no one will be allowed close to them...
the mower guy came this afternoon...
good thing, 'cause we were losing babies in that clover!
they are trying so hard to play, but fall over...
in another week, they will be much better at it...
they are doing good...
the black one has some junk in it's chest...
I think it's milk gone the wrong way...
they are too eager at first going from momma to the bottle...
this one is rotten...
the biggest...
and voiding all by itself...
I had to stimulate the other 2...
so, they are all for adoption and should be ready in about 3 weeks...
I just fed, burped and stimulated them...
so they are ready for nap time...
need to cover the cage so they will feel safe...
just like birds...
LOL
have a great evening...
we do have rain coming!

Pink Saturday...

more pink french images...
for you to use in your decorating...
crafting...
for fun...
labels are always fun and this one is so pretty with the lily of the valley...
and everyone needs wheels, especially if they are pink...
happy pink saturday!

birthday surprises!

just a quick showing of what Craiger and I weeded this morning...
and trimmed back and swept...
what a fun place to be in the morning...
Robbie finally stood still long enough to get a clear photo...
and now for my birthday surprise...
a tin shelf...
this is what the top looks like...
pretty darn cool...
and this iron white iron piece...
super big...
so I have no idea where they are going to go...
will work on that this weekend...
they are from my bf Rebecca...
my birthday is not until the 17th of August...
but she and I have this same problem...
or gift...
we like to buy things ahead of time for each other...
and then...
then...
then...
we can't keep it to ourselves...
it kills us to have something for the other and not give it to them right away...
so we...
always do it early!
so we can have it and enjoy it a bit longer...
and we can plan how we are going to use it...
so by the time the holiday rolls around...
we are ready to display our new stuff...
and since we are both like that...
she told me it was ok...
yep, it is...

71 today and cloudy skies...
perfect camping weather for my bestie...
she is gone for the weekend...
in her pink camper...
with the kids and her parents...
one of these days...
I might show up and spend a night with her in this pink camper...
and I will take my pink nightgown and pink slippers...
pink tooth brush and pink comb...
and we will tell ghost stories and dream of pink houses...
can't wait until I am able to do that...

have a great day and a super fun weekend!
get out there and weed, girls!
it's a great stress reliever...
and it looks super cool when you're done!
the house work can wait until next weekend...
trust me...it will still be there!

praise God...

I was where I needed to be tonight...
He led  me to someone who needed His words...
and it feels so good!
pray for my friend...
my sister is Christ...
amen

weeds be gone...

welp, I'm out of white spray paint again...
and we need a couple more cans for the bike...
but I am going to like it all white...
and next year it can be yellow...
and then blue...
been working on the pruning, dead heading and weeding today...
and this was where I worked last night after supper...
lots of blooms are happening now...
they seem to like the spots of rain and cooler temps...
yeah, it's 66 right now...
windows open and hoody on...
Doofus and Boofy wrestled this morning...
and here's the weeds...
the day lilies are getting ready...
raking and cleaning out the debris is a constant job... 
but it looks so much better when we keep it up...
some road contruction guys were in the neighborhood early this morning putting up this sign...
which is kind of silly since we live on a dead end...
for 2 weeks we have been wondering what RCA meant...
mystery solved!
ROAD CONSTRUCTION AHEAD...
duh, boy are we slow...
they are going to be redoing the Ashmore Road, which is a nightmare to go on...
and it will take them awhile to get it done...
9 miles and the path to my besties house...
the hopper was full and we dumped it...
so much from such a small area...
but we got a lot done today and more to go tomorrow...

got an appointment with the doctor on Saturday again...
the thrush mouth came back for the 3rd time...
still on meds...
but now I believe it started in my throat, so need to get it cleared up there so it doesn't keep coming back...
been plugging away at things, but I know I will feel so much better when I get rid of this...
