Well now.  This is going to clash big time with the background.

This is a scrapkit challenge. I don't do very well with those as you can only use what is in the kit.

When we got back from lunch and Target I wanted to do something creative before moving out of this chair. This is the result. Haven't looked for a Thanksgiving kit as I doubt I find it. That's a holiday for all to forget.

While at Target Wil got some new led exterior lights, I rounded up a clothes hamper. For a second I thought I was going to find one. Found one with not only a lid but wheels and a pull handle. Hope they last several years.

Today I did my mile and a half walk, hurting be damned! Just like going to Target, lean on a basket. lol  Wil didn't complain about the slow walk going out as he pulled muscles trying to dig thistles in the back yard. He just refuses to believe those can be killed with a spray.

Whoops I have light clothes in the wash and I bet they are done. I also have pictures to take off my camera yet.

Sometimes I just get too close, forgetting the macro setting. But instead of dumping the picture I just reduced it. The flower actually looked rather wrinkled.

This is just one of about 72 pictures I took a couple weeks ago when daughter and I were at the Botanical Gardens. I just added the last I'm going to put up on Flickr. I'll put the others on a cd, which I probably won't look at again for awhile.

This compulsion to save things to cd I must change. It is as hard as just throwing away photo's.

I hope by next week I can get back down about Wed. and see the rest of the insects. If my back doesn't straighten up I don't see that happening. I wanted to walk this morning, couldn't. I wanted to join a group of church ladies for lunch, didn't. I dozed on the heating pad instead. It would of helped if I hadn't kept dreaming I was in pain and waking to find I was, and Chan pulling his 3 a.m. stunt.

Here is something else I took a picture of.  A female elephant?  I can't believe what some people get paid for. Yeah I'm more of a realist.

Well I may as well shut the computer down and go back to the heating pad. Oh wait, no heat I rubbed Voltaren  on my back. Heat is a no no.

(I've not a clue what kicked my back up, so can't avoid doing it again)

Made this yesterday for a challenge. Had to go back and correct the url on it.

Listening to Andre Rieu "The Homecoming" with Pookie sitting on a perch beside me. (pookie small parrot)  Not within reach though.  

He's moulting right now and in need of a bath. I should of brought a bottle of warm water in here and showered him. That wouldn't be too kind as just being on a perch in here is new to him.  When I first got him he was in here more. 

He has started 'plucking' his hard plastic food bowl and I think that may be boredom.  Hence bring him here. He is listening to the cd too. 

Did my mile walk this morning after Wil did his. Mine would of been longer if there wasn't so much mud in the alley way behind our house.

Perfect weather to be outside digging the many thistles in our back yard. Just kills me I can't do that. Need to go research 'dry mouth' as I've a bad case of that too. I thought it might be the new diabetic med but that is not listed as a side effect.  I've had 40 oz. of water already. For someone who is not crazy over water that is a lot.

Today remember to thank a veteran for their service, including those who retired.  Lift the families at Ft. Hood in prayer too.  Hard to say "happy Veteran's Day" right now.

Daughter and I hit the Botanical Garden yesterday. Couldn't have ask for nicer weather.  If you go over to Flickr you can see the part of the bugs exhibit we managed to catch.  Our bodies gave out.
