Tulips in bloom
One thing that survived the culling of the yard was one solitary tulip plant over by the fence. As I went outside this morning to go to the store, I noticed it was in bloom.
What a gorgeous flower! I love spring. It’s my favorite season. It’s not too hot, not too cold, and everything is in bloom.

Soggy Doggies

The dogs have been getting restless since I haven’t felt up to being out lately, so I made myself load them up in the truck and take them to the park. I’m really glad I did, they had a blast. Here they are in the truck, ready to go. Ares is in a hurry. This
Thunderstorm

I now have “Riding the Storm Out” stuck in my head. Why? I just went outside with the trash, looked over my shoulder and WOW! Storm clouds on the horizon, and I can hear the thunder as I’m typing this. That’s what I get for not looking at the weather report. I was not expecting
Lawn Rainbow

I’ll take my rainbows any way I can get them. This one is just from watering the lawn, but it makes me smile. As you can see, it is also time to mow the lawn again. It’s out of control. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to best photograph a rainbow? I’m not so

We need a new one. This one is full. We have a rather eclectic selection… science fiction & fantasy, thrillers, textbooks, cookbooks (I collect way too many), computer and how-to books. We had to get a bit creative with the way we shelved them. I think it looks halfway decent… my objective was to not
Lawn!

Yes, we have achieved lawn. It’s a bit scraggly, there are some morning glories that need to go away, and it’s in dire need of edging… but it’s a lawn! Revel in the green lushness of my yard. Marvel at the change from dirt to grass. Be amazed! Yes, I am thrilled about grass. This
Front yard update

Oh so slowly, grass is growing. I have to water 3 times a day, especially now that it’s getting warmer. I have to set alarms on my phone, or I will forget and my poor grass will dry up. So far, it’s working well. All the white specks you see in the dirt are elm

Progress has been made on Brian’s sweater. I finally found a pattern I liked, that would work with the yarn I had. The sweater is called “The Fog Sweater“, based on a sweater the designer saw in the movie “The Fog“. It’s a simple drop-sleeve sweater with a LOT of ribbing; the body of the

Just realized I was missing a few final updates, so I’ll fill you in. Clyde went to go stay with his owner’s cousin last Friday. He was a great dog to get to know; if I didn’t already have a houseful of pets, he would have been an awesome dog to have. It was hard
Snow??

Welcome to springtime in Colorado, I suppose; I let the dogs out this morning, and it was snowing. Not a lot, but snow all the same. I think I’m going to go back to bed.
Yard Update: Grass!
about 4 months ago - No comments
We have grass. I repeat, we have grass. The sad thing is that this has made me realize that my life is so boring that I am getting excited about watching grass grow, and I’m blogging about it. I don’t mind it, but I just wonder why anyone even reads this thing. This must be
