Finally

...got around to removing IE8 from my pc. Went back to IE7. I gave 8 an honest try, but I simply found it cumbersome...you have to love Add/Remove.

You'll Never Guess...

What I did today...yup...that is right. I attended a baby shower. Ann Marie is expecting her first child in the next few weeks. How can that be? It was just yesterday her mom called me to tell me Ann had arrived.

Beware Flying Objects

The neighbor's new patio umbrella came flying down off their balconly last week during a wicked wind...just missed hitting my window...the bush in front of the window fared not so well...

My Little Piece of Green

My patio garden. The summer weather hit us in spades yesterday, I keep it back from the the edge to cut back on the direct sunlight... Not sure the basil will make it til the first tomato, so maybe I should plant the backup basil, huh?

Pain and Pleasure

You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses...

Green Thumb

My first tomatos...so far the critters haven't gotten them...of course who knows what will happen when the neighbors see red....along with this one lonesome tomato plant, I have sweet basil, spicy basil and rosemary...heck, the azalia I got for Admin Day is still alive...who would have figured??

Yellow

This is one of those multi-dimensional dealies that you really have to see up close and personal. Still trying to decide what I see in it...other than yellow, not particularly mellow. Sorry, didn't get the price on this one ;)

Slow Down

Fridays during the summer traffic tends to be lighter and I occasionally will take the freeways to work...was the wrong decision this past Friday...Ford Rd. to M-14 this was the speed.

Around the Town

I know..I know...it has been a while, hasn't it? Was up at the pet store over the weekend...the township has another contest going on the sculptures. I found this one more interesting than most of the last batch...and it could be yours for $7,500 after the contest ends. Looks like lamps to me...the "lampshade" part appears to be concrete...

Can We Say....

...multi-task? Yup...I have so much work to do I need to use two computers at the same time...versatile, aren't I?

Suburbia

It really wasn't all that long ago that this little 'burb was a farming community...remnants of it still remain where you least expect them. This little barn is surrounded by subdivisions, the 7/11 and the ubiquitous orange barrels...

Like a Good Neighbor...

How can you not smile when this greets you as you arrive home after a lousy day at work...?
