BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE WORD EXERCISE

This is excise photo. You will notice the hay in the wheels and the pedals. That should show you that I have not used it to exercise for a while. But its COLD. I will though, I promise.

The word for tomorrow is ACTION. I will be glad to see what you come up with.

Nikki and little boys are here so will say adieu for today.

l Forgot about this picture. It will be hard to see but there is a white spot on the mound kind of to the left center of picture. This is not far from our house and it is a bald eagle. And I did not have my other camera. Loved watching it watching me.

I forgot again.............darn

The word tomorrow is EXERCISE.

Circles

Today the picture was circles. This old milk can has a table top that fits on it for a side table beside an outdoor chair. I started painting all the outside stuff yellow last fall. I will finish them all in the spring. Have a couple of these cans that we use outside.

A very cold day. I had just put the horses out and went to check on the donkeys. Everything that was wet yesterday is now ice. I was inching along and the next thing I knew I was on the ground. I landed on my hip and my first thought was OMG I have broken my hip. But the good news is all I hurt was my hand. Have 2 fingers a little puffy. I was lucky. My hip isn't even sore. I am a pretty sturdy old dame.

Nikki and her little boys are coming tomorrow so they can see Nathaniel. Nikki can not stand it until she gets to see him and snuggle him. They went home this afternoon. I know Heather will rest better in her own bed. I wonder how Lili is reacting to being a big sister. 2 year olds do not share their parents very well.

Hope your Thursday is blessed.

Forgot

Tomorrows challenge word is CIRCLES

Thankful Tuesday

Today something wonderful to be thankful for. Our newest great grandson - Nathaniel Ryan Carmen ................... He is darling, came quickly and Mom is fine and Dad was sleeping on the couch in the room when I was there. He has a big sister Lili. Congratulations to their family, Nana and Papa too. Lots to be thankful for huh?
My challenge picture today of MUD. Mostly its water but mud under the water. It is gross. We kind of live on an island. Now its going to get cold and we will be slipping and sliding.
Slept good last night until we got the phone call from Heather. It was good to just be able to go to bed and go to sleep right away. That is a blessing. Don't ever take it for granted.
I think the horses are as sick of this water as I am. Every winter its the same thing though. I am so thankful for my polka dot boots. I have to clean stalls tomorrow. MUST. Must. It is really hard on my back but I can't stand anymore.
Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday.

Girls. On Monday


These are my girls. We still get an egg every day. Some of the other girls are banty size so their eggs are little. Just takes 2 per normal size egg. They dug up the hay string. Don't know how it got there. So this is my girl picture. Tomorrows word is MUD. That will be a challenge because we have a lot of snow on top of the mud. Who knows what it will be by tomorrow.
I got my medication for sleeping so tonight I will sleep. Bob is taking my car to work tomorrow so I will be sleeping in. It sounds very good at this point.
Hope your Tuesday is peaceful.

I don't know what I was thinking - technology. My brain went in slo mo. This is all I could think of beside the technology of my new lens on my camera and eagle pictures below here. They were awesome to watch and to look at. Not too many swooping over the lake but got a couple. They were spectacular and we had a wonderful time watching. We found the best viewing on Hi 97 on the east side of Lake Couer d'Alene at Beauty Bay. I had to walk up the highway a bit to get most of the pictures. Lots of people there doing the same thing. I should have dressed warmer. I did not know I would have to walk outside.






There are 2 in this picture. There is an immature eagle - no white head yet - in the tree beside the one in the top of the tree.



























Tomorrow the picture of the day will be GIRLS. Another to make my mind go loopty loop. What was I thinking?
A fun Sunday. Hope yours was as good.
