Random Thursday thoughts

Tomorrow is Friday! YAY! 

I'm actually taking off work tomorrow to get ready for an important weekend. Family is coming over to spread my late husband's ashes. I'm looking forward to spending time with family and reminiscing about Leo.
Leo's parents, my kids and grandkids. Ashley can't make it, she is working, but she will definitely be missed! Love you Ashley!

All of the grandkids started school this week. Hope y'all have a great year!

Blake's birthday was this week, my youngest grandson. Love you Blake! 

The chickens are doing good. Still a few weeks before any eggs. For some reason they have decided to poop in the hen house rather than out in the coop. Why poop where you sleep? I guess I should refer back to my original list of things I've learned about chicks...they are stupid. It is the only explanation I can come up with.




Enjoying some grapes this afternoon.

It is killing me to not name them all! So far Roo and White Chick are the only ones named since Sheldon and Gladys were killed.  

Flower names like Petunia, Marigold and Zinnia keep popping into my head. Maybe Penny Poppy or Amaryllis.

Old sitcom names would be cool too. Lucy McGillicuddy, Edith Bunker, Ellie May, Aunt Bee, Alice Kramden & Trixie Norton, Lisa Douglas.





Roo keeps them in line and doesn't much care if they have names or not. 

I also am having a strong urge to paint the hen house and coop in bright pastel colors. Soon....very soon.








Each day is a surprise out on the deck and in the yard. The Hibiscus have new blooms almost every day.




The Texas Star Hibiscus doesn't bloom as often or as quickly which makes them a treat. 





I hope everyone has a great weekend! 
Wendy: You're conceited.
PETER PAN:
Not me,
It's just that I am what I am
And I'm me!
When I look at myself
And I see in myself
All the wonderful things that I see
If I'm pleased with myself
I have ev'ry good reason to be.

I've gotta crow!
I'm just the cleverest fellow 
'Twas ever my fortune to know;
I taught a trick to my shadow
To stick to the tip of my toe
I've gotta crow!

I've gotta brag!
I think it's sweet
I have fingers and feet I can wiggle and wag.
I can climb trees and play tag with the breeze 
In the meadows below
I've gotta crow!

If I were a very ordinary
Ev'ry day thing, 
I'd never be heard cock-a-doodling
'Round like a bird!

So Naturally
When I discover the cleverness of a remarkable me,
How can I hide it 
When deep down inside it just tickles me so
That I've gotta let go and crow!

I'm really a rare thing,
Such a fair thing,
I can't keep still!
I'm bursting with pride
And I just couldn't keep it inside
If I tried so...

Naturally
When I discover the cleverness of a remarkable me,
How can I hide it 
When deep down inside it just tickles me so
That I've gotta let go and crow!
