A Little Chit Chat about a Parrot...and a Little Gardening!

Today's blog post is gonna be all over the place!......I know...you're saying: "What else is new?!" LOL But that's why I'm playing some seasons of love for you...to put you in a good mood while you wade through all of the boring plant photos! ^_^ So, here we go!! Hubby's Garden...

So enthralling, isn't it?!! ^_^ No! I'm not done!!!

Okay......so those aren't plants!!! LOL I just thought you might need something to eat right about now. ^_^ I saw these delicious looking babies on a new blog I just started following. It's called Hither and Thither. Oh!! So many beautiful photos!! And it looks like a new baby is on the way too! I'm so happy to be a new follower just at the right time!
Okay, back to the plant photos! In the meantime you can listen to a little conversation hubby and I had this past weekend. We were just laying around enjoying the soft rain coming down in the backyard, talking about this and that, when OUT OF THE BLUE hubby asked me: "Would you ever consider getting a Parrot?" O_0 Before I said another word, I grabbed the camera that I've had 'on the ready' right next to me, to catch a photo of the hummingbird, and hit "Record"....

Almost done!! ^_^ Just a few more. These are ones that are just getting ready to pop, hubby says!!

Helloooooooooooooo!!! Are you still here?!.....You know anywhere I might be able to buy a monkey?!! LOL

When Jeff Was A Boy

He had an orange bicycle
that he rode all over town;
A banana-seated 'Stingray',
and its handle grips were brown.

At 12, to make some cash,
he had a great big paper route.
He'd either walk or ride his bike.
Come rain or shine, he would go out.

He had a fast-red wagon
he pretended was a car.
He hauled everything in sight,
from sister's dolls to dirt-filled jars.

He played little league football,
basketball, kick soccer too.
Despite his having asthma
(which his coaches never knew).

He had lots of toys to play with-
matchbox cars and small 'Hot Wheels',
'Pick-up Sticks' and building blocks,
and model planes, which gave him thrills.

All his responsibility
was to take 'Skippy' out to run.
That's all his dog and him would do.
This made his childhood lots of fun!

Now he's older, likes to stroll,
and grow his garden in the yard;
Doesn't hanker for his boyhood.
Doesn't wanna play that hard!
