Last week I ranted about the
Blogger changes & several of you mentioned sticking with the OG version. I
shall try going back to that today & see what happens. If I’m unsuccessful
please expect a rant next week. (To be clear, there might be a rant next week
whether or not Blogger cooperates because rants are a dime a dozen around here
these days).
Sunday, July 5th
Dr. M & I are always
excited to see a hummingbird visit our hanging baskets! Please enjoy these not
very fabulous pictures.
Monday, July 6th
After the long weekend, I
forgot how to office so I left my lunch (a frozen dinner) at home. Fortunately
I remembered all this lovely fruit!
Tuesday, July 7th
Wildflowers!
Wednesday, July 8th
New mask – I think it’s
perfect!
Thursday, July 9th
Took a selfie to remind
people what I look like without a mask. My cousin Josh said, The last thing a Cheeto sees?" I had to show him what I had on my desk at
that exact moment. Ha!
My boss gave us gaiters in
case we liked the style better. I like it, but I think Dr. M will find it a lot
more useful – it covers his whole beard!
Friday, July 10th
Another day, another new
mask. That makes three “fun” ones and a couple of more utilitarian ones. I
think I’m set now!
A different type of visitor
to our hanging basket.
Saturday, July 11th
Our morning glories have
been quite lovely. And the little wildflower planters are fun too. Dr. M spent
a good couple of hours trying to figure out what the pink ones are – Silene Armeria,
aka Sweet William Catchfly, or Garden Catchfly. The blue ones are cornflowers.
Almost forgot to do the
photo shoot for this scarf. I took a jillion pictures because I was trying to
capture the green – it kept looking gray. This one definitely has wool in it, so you won't see it again for about 6 months.
It seems like every day
there is some new insane thing to shake my head about. So many outrages and
injustices – it boggles the mind! I try not to think about what our country
will look like if we reelect our current “president.” Today I’m in “wear my
mask & let the idiots fall where they may” mode. Tomorrow? There may be
ranting!
I try to keep my rants to just Judy and since we share the same views it doesn't cause any/many problems. Those blue cornflowers are INTENSE!
ReplyDeletePretty scarf/shawl. I can see the green!
ReplyDeleteGo ahead and rant. You're among friends here, and it is your blog. There is no low to which 45* will not sink, and his enablers go right down with him. Shame on them all.
Bravo for moving beyond the oh-so-tempting rants! Beautiful flowers and hummingbirds, and I ALSO bought a mask by that same "alien" guy! Mine hasn't arrived yet, though. I will be sure to share a photo when it does.
ReplyDeleteI've given up on the new blogger. I tried it three or four times and each time I had to revert to the legacy version to get my pictures and spacing and formatting right. it would do things like center a paragraph of text and nothing I could do would change it to left registered. each time I sent feedback telling them how much I hated it and why. apparently I'm not the only one as they have decided to continue to make the legacy version available.
ReplyDeletenice to see all your flowers. only the hardiest drought and heat tolerant things are blooming here now.
Look at all that fruit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel like I can taste it just looking at it
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers at your house. Funny how masks have become a fashion statement!
ReplyDeleteThe hanging flower baskets are impressive. I especially like the squirrel pic.
ReplyDeleteLove morning glories.
Not feeling any warm fuzzies over the changes to Blogger and have changed back to the old format.
ReplyDeleteI get sick to my stomach thinking of the Orange Buffoon getting another term.
