How are you celebrating the 4th of July?
From the looks of it you'd think I was going to sit around in my pajamas and drink coffee until a totally inappropriate hour. But I got plans. I'm hoping to finish Ethan "the new love of my life" Canin's America America, take a shower, go to a barbecue, watch some fireworks. It's action-packed here in the land of the Supergenius.
A little bird has made a nest in the wreath by my front door. This happened a couple of years ago as well, but one of the neighborhood cats knocked it down before the eggs hatched. This time I got some animal repellent spray and sprayed around my front porch to make it as unappealing to the cats as possible.
I tried to get a photo with the mommy in the nest, but she is too skittish. I can't get close enough. Too bad, she is so sweet. I go down and look at her through the window every morning. She cranes her little neck out and looks back at me. I think she is starting to get the idea that I am not a threat - at least not at a distance. She no longer flys away when I start up the washing machine or the dryer. Hopefully, I will be able to snap a few after the babies are hatched.
It's beautiful, it's fast and it lives with me now!
My "baby" the 125 red vino was loaded into a van and driven off to live in Monterey. :::waves:::
Whee... $4600 toward by NEW baby! I made the call for Ben's bike as he was just to anxious too leave the bike at the dealer any longer. That's when Greg told me they knew where my BIKE was. OMG. It is at an Aprilia storage facility. They are going there on their day off (4th of JULY) to pick up my bike! I had to ask the pressing question that's been plaguing me. "Is the seat cream color or black?" The one I saw online was cream and I fell in love with it. I did not want black, but I would have taken it. He said, " it's CREAM!" Happy dance! So we went down and got HIS new bike and paid for mine. I go in on SATURDAY and get my new sweet ride!
I've been looking at new helmets (and jackets) and am shifting toward the scorpion dahila products.
Third time is the charm.
I finally got curtains I like (at half price even)!! They are chocolate brown crinkle sheers. I hung them with some cream color linen tab tops I already had behind them and they look very nice together. I think some gold ribbon sewn along the top would make a nice trim. I have $6.76 left out of the $50. I budgeted, so decorative ribbon trim it is, or maybe some little bells, that'd be cute. I'd love that when the wind blows.
Here are the original green striped ones. Nice, huh?
Here are the new ones. Maybe at night I can get a better shot - the sun was streaming through the window when I took these.
How long do you take in the shower?

As long as I feel like taking...
