    The World’s Top 10 Best Images of Climbing Goats I am really so very sick that I still not up to posting my own content. So frustrating, but these cute goat photos made me smile today. I wish I could climb the rock wall this well. I find it hard even on my best days.

    If the picture fits. 

    So call it bad luck, Murphy’s Law, When it rains; it pours, If anything else can go wrong it will and the one I have chosen to come up with in my own humble brain:  “The fox tail in the fur is going to dig in deeper. and there is nothing you can do to stop it.”  Another one I like is: “If you think you were missed, quit thinking.”

    Balloons do not help.

    Just in case anyone did notice I have not been on my blog and posting for a week or so,-which I am in doubt of. lol. Hence,  I have come up with: “Hang onto the doubts, they are usually a certainty.”

    Anyway I have been extremely sick with pneumonia., so I do have an excuse.( I will not say the “excuse adage” for those waiting with baited breath for that one.)

    So if the pictures fits show them. These 3 fit me better than peanut butter and jelly.

    I resemble misery and feel like it too.

    From Above- Weekly Word Press Photo Challenge

    While out walking I discovered what I call my “Secret Garden.” It is contained in a strip down the side of one of my rural gravel roads, I am able to get to when exercising and getting out in the fresh air. I am thinking this used to be a garden at a house that was torn down when they put a pasture in beyond it; Someone bought the land. There are a lot of neat plants there and this one could be a weed, but I still find them lovely. If anyone knows what this plant is, tell me? It is soft and has a nice red trim on the leaves as you can see. There are amazing neglected wild flowers along this strip also. They are wild now, but as I stated, I think they were planted in a domestic setting in the past.

    I took this photo standing above and straight over this lovely plant.

        Thanks for visiting and your comment. I have no idea what plant it is? I am hoping someone can tell me that? Where I live there are so many different plants I have no idea what they are. distinct and pretty.

    I posted this since a sweater I would term “Most beautiful” with flowers on it is more suitable to the weather than the garden today is. So cold, memories of November.

    I have a slight confession to tell you all. You see despite my love of cats and all the fun I have seeing them and reading about them in all our Caturday posts, I am in fact quite afraid of them!  Kittens particularly scare me, but not because anything bad that happened to me as a kid, no, nothing like that, it is the unpredictability of them.

    This is a must see for the funny bone. But do not click on and read if: 1. You hate cats, 2. Have a feline phobia, 3. Have a bird phobia-wish I knew the names for these phobias- or 4. Just hate to laugh. These are just so funny. Have a merry heart moment:

    Hey , thanks to all my new followers. This week is a go, go , go week and my head is spinning. I hope to get back on here more later in the week or early next week. I dislike missing out on all to see on here. Better than FB in many ways. Catch you all soon. “You all” southern accent? I will take it.

    I love this picture. At one time I lived in a house that kind of looked like this. The ghosts just were in my mind though then and now. Been through a lot, just me and God. The world is closing in , but I am not showing it . Broken. Anyway, the beauty is still there like this house. Like riding a roller coaster, you have to get off and want to be on it forever.

    Tags: , , , snakes, treasure hunting, trepidation   

    So there I am looking for treasure, scavenging along in the field to the left of our house, when I remembered the snake I had spotted in our other pasture. As the piles of leaves underfoot crunched beneath my extremely low top sneakers and thin ankle socks All of a sudden I was jarred into reality. Mind you, prior to this I had been moving along surveying the ground all over-that is until I thought of that. I would call it cautiously creeping as quickly as I could back to the safety of my driveway, when I thought of snakes.

    Thankfully I had found the small vintage glass bottle before the dread of the
    bite hit..

    My kind of snake.

    My kind of snake.

    Blue bottle and others I drug back with me.

    Shades of Grey-SILVER 

    Silver vintage thrift store finds

    Silver vintage thrift store finds

    Some of my silver colored jewelry- Some is actually silver, some pewter, some antique, vintage. Necklaces are magnetic.

    These are diy stuff that is silver toned.  Back is foil print art with owl and barn in foreground. To the right is tin can and glass faux french candy jar. In fore front are those clear plastic furniture gadgets you place under your furniture to keep the floor from scratches. I painted them. Next photo will show the idea I came up with to use them for. On the left is the one faux mercury glass I kept from Christmas gifts I made as candle holders.

    In the back on the lid of my fax candy jar I used for display are how I used the underneath furniture floor savers I painted. To display pictures. School picture, you never know where to put. The one on the right is also. One of them. If you rember Sesame Street: One of these Things Doesn't Belong: you mjight notice a difference on the one on the left. Here a silver brush that broke made a great picture holder also. This one I did not even have to paint.
