Monday, Monday

Hello,

I wanted to try posting photos, so here is a nice summer shot.

Hope you all had a great day! As usual, mine starts at the gym. Today was kickboxing. Should be renamed "kick-your-ass-boxing". My friend, Lynn, is the instructor - and she is the greatest ever! After class, a group of us went for coffee and just relaxed and visited. I love these times. I got a haircut, then came home to work on this site. Bear with me, all. I am just be learning as I go. I have tried to add some things of interest. Check the side and bottom.

The animal kingdom seems to be quiet lately **knock wood**. A bunny is trying to make her nest in our front lawn. I think we are winning that battle. A ground hog came to eat birdseed under the feeder, and thank goodness Gracie didnt see that - it would have been "on" for sure! Frog news: The one frog we had left, just might be a female. Her sides have puffed out like balloons, and there is croaking at night. Well...last night, I saw a small frog has appeared, lurking about the rocks. Then the thought occurred to me - was the croaking a call for a "boy" to come visit? Guess time will tell. Frogs breeding at the pond=good, toads in the pond=bad. My mom had a bat get in their house, specifically the masterbath. If that ever happened here, I would have to sleep with a cage over my bed. I never wish to be awaken by a whirring noise.....

I am watching the Olympics (like a fiend), and can someone please tell me why "trampoline" is an Olympic sport? If this is a summer sport, then I think "snowball fighting" should be added to the winter games. O.K., thats off my chest.

Tomorrow I have my charity program, Baskets of Life. More on that later. I am working on a new card, so if I get that done, I will post that picture, too. Think I'll call it a day.

Good night
