Terrific Tuesday

Last week, before it got so undoGly hot and humid AGAIN, mom and I went outside to play.

I'm in a wind tunnel!

We discovered that our Chinese Lanterns are turning orange!

Have a terrific Tuesday, everybuddy and stay cool!

Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

We are joining Arty this week for Nature Friday~

Mom's gardenia plant has been outside for six weeks at least and it's been full of buds. She's always so afraid that the buds will drop off before they open.

No more worries. She hit the jackpot and our living room smells fabulous!

Landlord Bob's Hibiscus is in bloom~

His Hydrangea is blooming too~

We found Queen Anne's Lace along our walk~

And pink Phlox~

We're not sure what this wildflower is.

For some reason, mom always has a problem taking a picture of Chicory.
Gosh, mom - you posted a picture of my hiney along with the flower!

It was a bit breezy and my bandana kept flipping on top of my head like a hat!

The Daylilies have really been beautiful this summer!

Happy Friday, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥

Mom's friend, Miss Dotty, gave her a LOT of puzzles. She told mom that when she was finished with them to donate them. She did not want them back. So yesterday, mom called the library and asked them if they had adult puzzles to lend out. They said, no - but they do have puzzles for sale and mom asked them if they accepted puzzle donations and they said yes!
She is donating the four puzzles that are to the right of the picture.

She came home with this and it only cost her one dollar! There are 10 puzzles in this box, mom! We are going backwards here. We are supposed to be downsizing!

Oh my dog! This will keep her busy for awhile and when she's finished all ten of them, she will take it back and re-donate it for the next puzzle obsessed peep.

She also found 3 books for fifty cents apiece so for two dollars and fifty cents, she got the deal of the century! She has entertainment for HOURS!

I'm not so sure that I'm going to like this deal but if you're looking for a great deal - support your local library!

Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~

The town of Northford is maintaining their streets, which is a good thing but it's cramping our walkies style! I'm sitting on the town line. Can you see the difference? Mom refuses to walk me on all of these sharp stones. She says it's no good for my paws.

Please come and sweep up your loose stones soon!

We saw a bunny!

The Phlox is in bloom~

We spotted this Balloon flower that had jumped out of the garden and was blooming on the side of the road~

Remember the pretty purple money plant that we posted earlier in the year? The purple flowers have turned into money!

We found this on the ground not attached to it's Dandy greenery. Someone must have picked it and made their wish? I'm making mine too!

The Asiatic Dayflower is in bloom at the end of our driveway!

Happy Friday, everybody!

Love ya lots♥

Molly Monday

It's a beautiful summer day today. It's not too hot yet but the temps are heading to the mid-80's today and by the end of the week, it will be in the 90's. YUK!
Mom thought a bowlful of ice might be fun~
