An updated video on how our garden grows!

Played on my Yamaha Tyros5-76 This is to share with my friends, not a performance. But I hope you enjoy it anyway! “If you seek perfection, look elsewhere.” ~ Chiafucius

Well, quiet except for Bubba, our neighbor's rooster, who was also up early greeting the day! I love that Bubba is included in this video though, he's definitely part of the atmosphere! This is my first-ever garden and I am very proud of it! I have some things I see I need to trim up a bit (didn't get out there yesterday because it was raining all day!) but so many little baby vegetables are growing! It's a miracle every time I look at it!

It isn't often, anymore, that I've been making changes in our home. But today is an exception! So I decided to make a video sharing what's new!

Hubby wasn't home this evening so Maisie took me for a little walk outside, and then we played some ball.

I don't get out a whole lot except for appointments, but I had an appointment in Alma on this day. I knew that the air quality was up in the 200 range but didn't know, practically, what that meant. Until we were on our way home from the hospital - WOW! I was so flabbergasted I had to take a video!

A few clips and pics from the latest visit from 4YO Luna, 9YO Lyra, and 14YO Leelan!

Looking through my raised beds garden with my 4YO granddaughter Luna.

Just a little clip I took today...my purse is at least 5 pounds (as high as my kitchen scale could go) but my service dog Maisie handles it like it's 5 ounces.

I have a LOT to learn about this phone, so these first impressions shouldn't affect anyone else's opinion or purchase choices. It is very different from any other phone I've had, and while the hardware is pretty easy - and I love it! - I'm not quite sure about their version of Android 11...actually I have plenty of hesitation about it, as you will see.

Today we were out and about, and stopped at a gas station. This shows the mayflies there. This only happens once every so-many (I have no idea HOW many) years but it's pretty stunning when it does!

These are a couple of clips from the day of the girls' birthday party for their family and friends at their home.

Our granddaughter Luna turned 4 on the 5th of June, and she wanted noodles, so they chose the Olive Garden for her birthday dinner! This isn't as long, but it was just as fun!

Our granddaughter turned 9 on June 2, and the next day we took her family out for her birthday dinner. Her restaurant choice was Subway. We also stopped at Costco for some shopping (receipt at the end), and rescued a baby turtle, who makes a cameo appearance!

When we were outside on Saturday I let Lyra take my little CoolPix camera down to our lower yard, by the river, with her little sister to see what kinds of photos she'd bring back. (I was watching from inside the tent that you will see in one of these pics, at the top of the hill.) This is what she took, I just made them into a slideshow and put them to music.

Vids'n'pics from our weekend. Our 3 grandchildren, ages 14, 8, and 3, came to visit from Thursday evening until Sunday afternoon. We had a blast! These are just a few of the highlights!

morning time with my parrots...afternoon doing a little shopping...evening with the family for Casey's birthday dinner!

Pete and I were out and about today, so I decided to take some video. I haven't made a vlog in quite a while! We spent our time in a couple of the small towns that aren't too far from us (though we are "far" from any town!) and I share where we went and what we did.

Our 3 grandchildren, ages 3, 8, and 14, spent the weekend with us. These are some clips and pictures of the good times we had together!

Just some sweet times with my "PoiBoiz", Maxwell (red-bellied parrot) and Elliot (Meyer's parrot) this morning. I've had them for well over 20 years and they are my sweetest, bestest, smartest, funniest boiz!

Pete had an appointment in Saginaw and these are some clips of our day.
