How Cute is that Squirrel?
Where I live, the squirrels have populated. After all it is Fall and this is their go-to time to fetch as many nuts as they can to tide them over for winter. They are as cute as they can be……until they are gnawing through the cushions in our outdoor sitting area! Argh! I remember a…
Patience, Lord! NOW!
Just before winter was making its big debut, I remember watching the squirrels in our area going into overdrive, scurrying ceaselessly through the undergrowth and stuffing nuts and seeds into the soil. They were making a mad dash to survive the winter. They were frantic to bury their food “treasures”, Could we be taking after…
Take Back What the Enemy Stole
I purchased this little squirrel years ago at an after Thanksgiving 70%-Off Fall decor sale. I had to buy him because he reminded me of the sandwich-snatching squirrel we met up with at Sea World. My daughter reminded me of the encounter. We had just sat down in a shady spot to eat our peanut…
Stop and Look Around Once in a While
In the words of the great philosopher, Ferris Bueller, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you’ll miss it!” That is so true, and unless you’re my age, or more, you may not give those words a second thought now — but give it a few years,…
Bunny Trails That Give Bunnies a Bad Name
So I’m still caring for this pint-size Yorkie who, BTW, is about to get “shipped out” because she keeps telling me what to do. “Treat? Go for a Walk? Scratch my tummy! Put me as close to you as I possibly can get!” And, I yield to her, almost every time. Those big brown eyes…
Guarding My Attic AND My Heart
Squirrel intruders started last year. So bad that they burrowed into my attic with a 6” x 3” hole. I heard them scampering around having a “heyday” all season long. Grrr! I surmised the enemy was out to get me and my peace! But, eventually, no more noise plus $150 bill from my handy man…
Welcome to my Wild Frontier!
Maybe not the frontier, but it’s sure been wild at my place. I have felt like Annie Oakley in my determination to rid my home of an outlaw squirrel. This wildlife adventure began several weeks ago when I heard scratching outside my window. I went out to my patio and saw all kinds of wood…
Time to Take Back What the Enemy Has Stolen
While I was in Michael’s a few days ago, I saw the Fall décor 70% off sale. I saw this little squirrel that reminded me of the sandwich-snatching squirrel we met up with at Sea World. My daughter reminded me of the encounter. We had just sat down in a shady spot to eat our…
The Fishing Trip’s Grand Finale
If there’s a scripture I rely on, live by, practice, use in my blog posts, and appreciate, it’s Romans 8:28 “ALL THINGS work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purposes.” It seems to be that scripture…..at the end of the day or at the end of the…
