I'm so achy that I've been trying to find one of those hotels where you check in and have a drink at the bar and the next thing you know, you wake up in a bathtub full of ice with a kidney missing. What ever happened to those? These ice packs just aren't covering enough geography.
So, as I sit here blogging through the pain ("blogging hurt!" as they would say on the Wide World of Sports) without a scrap of work in progress to show you, I'll let you feast your eyes on some more of Rick's photos from around the house. First, here's some of our deer herd--that's our neighbor Bjorn's (Not His Real Name) nearly 100-year-old barn in the background.
Next, one of the gray squirrels that look all cute and innocent, except I know for a fact that one of them has been trying to kill me. Maybe more than one, but for sure I have seen one of them in particular give me a Look sometimes. I'm pretty sure he's the one that likes to chew through the rope that connects my hammock chair to the maple tree, leaving it hanging by the tiniest thread, in hopes that I will start swinging all unaware and then crash to my death, scattering pistachio nuts as I fall. It is possible he is in cahoots with the turkeys.
And finally, another gratuitous celebrity + Kathi photo. Check out the body language. I'm all "Hey, here I am with Jack Black" and he's all "Momma, get me out of here please." Notice that he has totally stolen my haircut here, in a Separated at Birth moment.

THAT is hysterical (the hair do comment!!) I love to visit witty, dry blogs like yours!
Well, your neck and shoulders COULD be from blogging. Just sayin! I know how much it sucks no matter what the reason. Thank God for Flexeril!
Love how you and Jack coordinated your haircolor and style ;-) Some day you might let us in on the secret behind hangin' with celebrities. Hmmmmm????
Oh, the darn grommet injury! I hate it when that happens! I've had a similar pain but not from grommets. I think it was from. . er blogging.
I am starting to think the country life is more dangerous than the city life? First the dang turkeys and then the squirrels! What else is lurking out there ready to attack you? I think you need to carry that daisy red rider ALWAYS!
Your squirrels must be related to my squirrels, or as I refer to them "bastard beasts". I swear they stand together in the yard together laughing at me. They scream from the trees when I walk outside and throw things. I have a continuous fight with them to keep them from eating everything, including my white wicker furniture that they destroyed. I despise those little beasts.
Funny photo of you and JB. You lucky girl you.
good times. I get computer seizage in my mousing arm.
and we refer to deer as Napalm on The Hoof here in Brookdale. I hope the three that live bend me don't come back anytime soon. The Devestation.
I have squirrels too! They have dug up all my bulbs, eaten all my bird food and are multiplying. Now they have their beady little eyes on my eggs .. not mine .. my chickens ... and they keep planting trees in my garden. Grr..
THANK YOU for making me laugh today.
Oh God, whatever DID happen to those kidney stories?
Have you tried moist heat? I know, sounds stupid, but try either a moist heating pad, or a hot towel.
Also, if you're game, try the Chiropractor. No joke, when I get that 'bunched up' feeling in my upper back (blogging injury, and all), I go see my boyfriend. That's what my husband calls my Chiropractor. And the UPS man. He's my boyfriend too.
Feel better.
I'm cracking up - seperated at birth picture. ;)
Must say I am LOVING the blog :) Already showing it to friends, and you'll be linked up on my homey inspirations as well! :)
Blessings!
