rambling

 Sade likes apples, but apparently NOT the skins.. they have some apple on then too.   she had them flung all over the place and trailed into the living room.  she even chewed on some then spit them out!! We have had some unseasonably nice weather and it dried out enough that i was able to rake up the last of the leaves, the lilac tree is late and then there are always ones that catch and pool in corners of the yard.  and it was fun to get out and have some exercise that has results... 

Been going to basketball games that are in Redmond (for Rylie) It is always fun to watch them. such a shit show sometimes, and it sure is different from when i remember high school basketball.. they don't have to acknowledge their fouls and the girls fight over the ball two or more get hold of it and pull and push and grab, even falling to the floor and grappling, it is strange and does not seem very sportsmanlike. 

got the garbage all mixed up and did not have the recycle emptied for a month!!! so had lots of boxes from xmas and deliveries we have had. so broke them all down and got them into the can for next time, once w got rid of what was in there!!!  that Amazon is so great, just find everything on there! but have gotten so used to it don't know if i want to or could even stop.... i mean, really, in protest of stupid Bezos 

I have stopped FB for awhile to ween myself and to protest Zuckerberg and his shenanigans, i mean, really.  It seems as if i live in a constant state of impending doom and wondering what is going to happen next.

My niece sends me great photos of the mtns.. sometimes daily. she is out and about all the time, school and games and practice for dance and basketball.....   She is preggars!!!! due the end of April, it is very exciting and there are so many things you can order on line.. have to stop that, wait to see what she needs or wants..

Watched all of Outlander 7th season, and Landman, which was great... Billy Bob sure knows how to deliver a line.  also assorted movies and other series... Younger on Netflix is cute and there are like 4 seasons.. Now i'm watching Discovery, a Star Trek series.... i have too many streaming channels going, have to cut that down! hahaha... Also got an alexa for the music.... it is nice to just sit here, reading and listen to 60's or whatever just tell it what you like and i have the whole world of music at my finger tips, so to say.... don't have to use my fingers.... its like Google, ask it anything, except she answers me... :)  

Been making cranberry and popcorn garland for xmas trees for gifts next year, out of yarn and wooden beads... it is fun to do and not much thinking, just same thing over and over.  got some pretty flannel to make some receiving blankets (its a girl!)  

So i've been making myself busy, doing things, but all things where i am just sitting... have to get the get up and go.  oh!!! and sade is in heat... OMG.. i think the worst is over, even her little tibbies got all swollen.. they wanted her to go thru the 1st heat, growth and hormones or something, but would rather not ever do that again...  we never did that with Luci.. so that was an excuse to not walk as could not take her out, or was afraid to.  We did go to a park a couple of times and walked around the perimiter and into some woods.. but NO other dogs were around.... the neighbors have two males, the are fixed, but still, she runs over to the fence then sits there and whines,,, little hussy...

That it for now, Take Care and God Bless

I know you want to see a picture of her when she is sweet...
