My life day to day

A Short Look Back

Found a picture of Lilly that was taken shortly after she was spayed.  This was taken about 7 or 8 months ago when she was only 6 months old.  Notice her shaved belly?

Tomatoes are so very yummy

I love home grown tomatoes and my birds do too. Tomatoes are beyond yummy!!  Eva, being the dainty cockatoo that she is, picks hers up and nibbles until the tasty morsels are gone.

Lila on the other hand just dives in face first.  I say either way works 🙂

The Good Life

Petey came from a home where he was made to stay outdoors 24/7, (even during scary thunderstorms).  I think his life now is a much happier one…..Here he is on the couch with me and Lilly…doesn’t it look like he is saying “thanks Mom”?

Hot Dog

Not only is he hoping that I will drop yummy morsels while I am attempting to cook dinner, but he is laying right in front of an air vent.  His plan is pretty flawless.  If he lays directly in my way I am more apt to drop stuff.

Lilly and the spider

We were being very lazy last night, sitting around on the sofa watching television, when all of a sudden Lilly perks up and jumps down to chase a spider across the living room.  It was a wolf spider that had run out from under the sofa.  Wolf spiders are really ugly, fast and they can jump…..and they really give me the willies.  Lilly thought it was a wonderful play thing and even put her foot down right on top of the spider.  Of course in true cat fashion she let it go so she could chase it some more.  That was when I thumped the spider with one of my flip flops.  I didn’t even think to grab the camera…so here is a picture from http://www.bugguide.net. 

Image

Ugly aren’t they?  I know spiders are beneficial by eating other yucky bugs.  They just need to stay outside!

Overflowing

Not quite sure how this comfortable.

The good smells of country life

Petey and I went out to Glens house last Sunday.  Petey is always completely overwhelmed by all the different wonderful smells so you can’t really walk him anywhere….you have to drag him along.

Taking a nap

Lilly has good ideas!  She looks super comfortable, doesn’t she?

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
