Oooo, I Got Such a COOL Gift!
Isn’t my new Scottie adorable? My brother, Randy made it for me! He made two of them out of wood. This picture isn’t very good…I wanted to show the dog, but it is drizzly and damp and cold outside. I wore my flip flops instead of warmer clogs, so my poor toes were freezing!
I did catch a picture of the tiny rose above. This is the same one shown the other day. It is a miniature rosebush. I had inadvertantly covered the bush with too much mulch, and the poor thing nearly suffocated! I “found” it last month, and uncovered it. It has grown rather slowly after being buried so long, but the roses are so very stunning!
And that Rudbeckia? It looks even prettier after getting a good watering from the rain we had yesterday and today.
The roses below are a pretty bouquet my parents and brother gave me for my birthday!
We drove to our “usual” meeting place last night to meet my parents and Randy. It was kind of chilly and dismal, but the restaurant was so cozy, we didn’t notice the weather outside! Instead of my regular fare of a salad, I had a cheeseburger and fries! We enjoyed visiting, and the food was (as always) terrific!

Oh MY goodness!!!! I just looked at this entry as it is published. The STRANGEST thing has happened! I loaded my pictures that I took only a short time ago onto my computer. I then resized them from the folder they were in for today. Well, that rose picture was NOT taken today, but is the same picture I placed on this blog a few days ago. How it is here is a total quandry to me……Well, more strange than fiction is that if you click to enlarge the picture, you see the picture I just took! How WEIRD is that?
Okay, before anyone thinks I have TOTALLY flipped my lid, the rose picture has STRANGELY *morphed* into the PROPER picture that I uploaded. So, now you will think I am totally crazed!!! This is just too weird…….
Hmmm…aren’t computers a great thing!?!? I just love it when they do random weird things. Your Scottie is very cool. I have got to go to your restaurant sometime. It sounds so wonderful!
Isn’t this rain wonderful? All of my flowers and my lawn look so much happier now.
Hey Carly,
If you look at the rose I put on my blog on August 19th, guess what? IT is now the rose I put on TODAY!!!!!!! That picture did NOT exist 3 days ago!!!!!!! Now, I think I HAVE lost my mind!!!!!!!!
Don’t worry Katya…these weird things happen in the world of Blog

Cute Scottie, everytime I see fabric and any item with a scottie on it I think of you. My mother had a scottie dog as a child and I have a quilt pattern with little scotties in the design and it is on my endless list of things I plan to make sometime!
Oh Ruth, thank you for the sanity check. Cyberspace is a very strange place, indeed!
