Tid Bits and Projects
It seems like I havebeen so busy around here… but where is my progress? I have so my projects currently on my plate, and have been working on them, really! But, none are officially completed yet. So, I thought I would just fill you in on some of the tib bits going on around here and a few of the before shots of some current projects.
Some awesome flowers have sprouted up in the back yard. I forgot that I had planted them there in the spring! I love lillies, any kind, especially orange ones!
We are also still taking care of Gillian, the salamander. He is still in the rubber tote sitting on the table, grossing everyone out. But, we are searching for a small tank to keep him in. In this picture he is right next to the end of the leaf. Those two black dots are his eyes; he is burrowed in the dirt.
The dogs made a nice mess for me to clean up this morning. They decided that the five minutes they were left alone in the yard was just long enough to dig for moles. Here they are trying to look all innocent and quite muddy! Also check out Marley’s new collar. She thinks she’s tough!
Tony was the sweetest last night and had his amazing spaghetti pizza ready for me when I walked in the door! I even have some for lunch today.
And, here are just a few sneak peeks of the projects I am working away on…
Stay tuned…
Meet Gilligan
Last night Tony came home after a farewell party for our friends, to wake me up in a very odd way. “I found a creature and he needs us to take care of him. Can we keep him?” Yes, its like having a little kid in the house. I, half asleep, was a little concerned. “Here,” Tony said, “stay there and I will bring him to you.” Before I could say a word he was bringing a box into the bedroom to show me his new friend. This got me up and out of bed quickly. He’s so lucky I’m an animal lover. I peered into the Busch Light box (nice, eh?) and saw a fairly large salamander! I was a bit surprised, but after some convincing I helped to set up a temporary home for the little guy. A rubber tote, some dirt and a water bowl. Back to bed.
Meet Gilligan:
Tony is on his way to the pet store today to find out if we can keep him, and how we would go about doing that. I think he really wants to be able to keep the little guy (just like a kid, huh? 🙂
