Non-Eventful Week

Last week was non-eventful. Toby and Skye wanted to go back to Six Flags to ride some of the rides they didn't get to the last time we were there. Our pass will expire soon, and they want to make full use of it before it does.

I vowed I would never go with them again. because (a) I hate long car rides to places I don't even want to be (b) I hate crowded places and am not a fan of thrill rides.

I admit the morning I woke up and knew they would be headed to for Six Flags to leave me alone for the day was like winning the lottery. I made a trip to the Blue Hanger and came home to roost on the sofa and watch some Netflix uninterrupted. That is my idea of an exciting day.

The next day Toby and I ran some errands and came home to lounge in the pool.

Me and Skye have been sitting out in the evenings. I like to spend as much time outdoors in the summer as possible, because I hibernate in the winter. I'm a full blooded southern gal.

This year has not really been a year for nice sunsets, but the other night the sky showed off for us...

 




The animals like to hang out near us when we're outside. I think about my pets a lot. How it's weird how they consider us a family even though they are very different from us, but yet know how to mold to human expectations....



I especially think about Bo. He's so muscular and strong. He could attack and kill me if he wanted to with his mass strength, but yet he cowers and hides when I raise my voice or if he senses I'm mad...


Recently, my friend Robin suggested we enter some of our work into the county fair. She does a lot of canning. Gardening and canning is her thing, like crochet is mine. I had thought about the idea of entering some of my crochet into a fair before, but never delved any deeper into the idea until she suggested  it.

I have a few ideas on what I want to enter, and even have come up with some other ideas that have not yet been created. I call these three blankets my masterpieces. I donate most of my crochet to local charities, but there are certain things I make that I keep because of the time and money I put into them....


Anyway, that's all I can think of to ramble on about for now. I need to start my day.
