MAY 4, 2009 IMAGES OF LIFE IN LOCKIE LAND TODAY
I have been taking a few photos lately and have not shared any in a long time, so on a rainy Monday, when I should be doing other things .. I am playing on the computer! lol
No one else does this I am sure!!!
The collage above is of my wigela bush in my backyard. It is so pretty this year! I have some iris this year.. but it is not a good year for them, the wind has been might rough on them. Lot of broken stalks, and just torn up flowers, from nothing more than wind.
But the wigela is going strong and so I will share its beauty with you.. The butterflies are swarming it! All kinds... Painted Ladies, and Monarch, Butter Bits, Swallow Tails, and I even found a Lumina on it, one morning last week.. Those moths are so gorgeous!
This comparison is of the same place on the creek, taken from the same spot. It has rained and rained until the creeks can't hold it all any longer, and the river has jumped its banks also.
I couldn't even get down to the place the one photo was taken.. the water is all the way up to the entrance to the fishing hole!
I found these yesterday on the side of the road by the creek. This is a wonderful wild flower that goes by the name of Solomons Seal. I have always loved these plants, have tried to transplant them many times.. but it just is not to be.. they pick their home and won't be moved!
Now we get to the inside of the house. Here is the newest member of my household. Good ole "Jackson the Parrot Dog"!
He loves to crawl up on Gary's arm and go to sleep.. snoring sleep .. deep puppy sleep!I have never seen a dog do this kind of thing before, ever.. the top picture is more in keeping with what dogs will usually do when they sleep. Jackson has not sprouted any tail feathers yet so we are hoping it is just a passing phase.
If it isn't, well Gary needs to start lifting weights.. because this little guy is growing by leaps and bounds, and pretty soon, he is going to be quite a chunk of weight to let sleep on his shoulder.
He wants to sleep in the bed, so I let him. I wake up in the mornings and he is up on the top of my pillow with his head laid on the top of mine.. go figure!
I will finish up with a little video that will show you that my suspicion that Jackson has ADD is well founded.. lol.. hope you enjoyed the tour of the things in Lockie Land in May 2009.
I enjoyed presenting them to you!

THIS IS
JUST PRETTY
DARN COOL!
My Auntie J. sent an email to me with this link to look into.. so I did..
I liked what I saw for sure!
It beats the heck out of the news sites, and their continuous doom to America via the world ..
be it terrorism or pig snotty nose killer viruses..
it is always a real uplifting thing to do..
yes sir ..
the news is really just GREAT all the time huh?.
NOT!
So when this showed up on the screen, I was pleasantly surprised!
This group of people are moving along pretty quickly with over 6 million hits to this website when I was there early yesterday morning.
This is the video and the song they sing..
I placed the url to the site at the bottom..
I signed my name to their petition
I also sent this url to my congressman,
in his weekly wipe up email from me..
.lol..
He always writes back,
Not a form letter either!
Either I have a really great representative..
Or he picked me to write to,
because I am on his ass constantly!
Since the fiasco our country has fallen into
due the actions of those we trusted..
We are advised to
make them be accountable
for all actions they take
So I figured I ought to try it out.
I am making the most of the
opportunity to learn a new skill,
Babysitting a government full of spoiled rotten brats
is kind of fun, if you go about it, with the right attitude.
After all.. they asked for it.. didn't they?
I love the smell of harassment in the mornings!
BORN AGAIN IN AMERICA
