No, it’s not spring yet. I want it. Murph wants it. And, unless you like to wear a claustrophobic 2 – 5 layers of clothing for warmth much of your winter time, you want it too. Let’s think about spring together and think on life, new and renewed.
Check out these mushrooms! They bring out the fairy (or faerie) in me. The feeble attempts to place a quarter and half-dollar, as well as my hand upon and beside these shroomy beings do not depict the surprising size of them, in my opinion. I was shocked when I saw them in the neighbors’ yard and saddened when they were mowed with the grass. If they were in my yard, I’d probably trim the grass around them with scissors.😁





Murph’s umbrella keeps him from seeing and stressing birds of prey away in the distance. I have to move it often as the goal is for him to receive sunlight at the same time. Not always easy and this system doesn’t work when it’s windy. I never leave him outside alone. To give him as much time as possible outside, I either squint to see the laptop to do work, do yardwork, or actually relax with him. When I do things such as place fallen branches on a tarp to take to the burn pile, he basks on a hammock and pillow inside a dog crate that I reinforced with screening to protect him.
Renew, rejuvenate, rebirth, life force, Lil’ Murph, greenery, nature, butterfly friends, squirrel friends, rainbows, beautiful fish and life-giving water and sun… enjoy:






















Those last two with Murph in his dragon wings were for you, Gigi.

Don’t forget to order your solar eclipse viewing glasses before it’s too late!!
I ordered a set of 6. I’m mailing some of them to family. When I was younger, I probably would have just tried to look at a solar eclipse. Now that I’m older, I appreciate the vision I have left 🧐 and want to preserve theirs. We just received our tiny box of glasses today. I had no idea they are like this. The outside is reflective. I put them on and was astonished at how dark they are!!
Buy yours or some extra for friends and family here:
I couldn’t get the short link!! Dang it! But, I want to share what I think is the best deal at 7.99 for a variety pack of 10, I don’t think you’ll find any less expensive than this. And these are Prime, so if you order today, it appears as though you will receive them Thursday or Friday. My 6 pack costs exactly the same (I think $8.55 after tax). As an Amazon affiliate, we receive a small commission at no extra cost to you for what you purchase through our links. So, yes, the more inexpensive, the less the commission, but that’s not the point here. It saves you money, you’ll have some to share, and ultimately, every little bit does help us. So thank you for ordering these or nearly anything else in Amazon’s search bar when you get there. You can get that computer you were thinking about getting. 😉
Or, or… you can get a tiny home!! Check this out: https://amzn.to/4ahfHuN You can literally get this really cute, black and oak, 19’x20′ home with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, and sitting area for 11,900.00 0r $470.94 per mo. for 48 months!!! Haha! Just go look at it. You’ll get it by May 1st. That’s perfect house-raising weather!
Neighbor: “What is that huge delivery you just got from Amazon, George?”
The recipient neighbor, George: “It’s the new living quarters for the mother-in-law. She’ll be happy 50 yards from our house next to the pond and birds.”
*Update: In 1 day, the set I bought is down to 1 in stock & if ordered now, won’t be delivered until Tuesday. And the set in the link above, just went up $1. The demand is going up as we near the day!!
🛒These solar eclipse glasses 😎 below are entirely made in America and meet all the safety specs:
“Give me Lizardry or give me Death!”
