My neighbor across the street that I really like gave me a bunch of groceries...cleaned out her freezer. Some of the meat she gave me was stuff like sirloin steak! And a t-bone even! We literally never get that kind of meat! We either eat chicken, pork chops (not the fancy kind) or ground beef (90% lean if we get a really good buy.) She gave me the disclaimer that she didn't know if they'd be any good anymore.

I took it out to defrost so we could grill it tonight. It's all defrosted, still in the package. It's grey. Dark grey. I'll eat just about anything, but I don't think this is edible.

~sob~

Oh bummer... I wouldn't take chances on it... I dare to dump it if there's question on food. It hurts too bad to be wrong.

Enjoyed your garden pictures... I just got back over from Rosie's... Cisco had a case of the 'poor mes' today, so I took the dogs over and let them play awhile.

So I took the liberty of taking a couple pictures of her garden so she can keep track :~D

She's got corn coming up in the middle, some 'maters, flowers, and I'm not sure what else...

I was gonna say, Rosie, since I think you had corn seed left over, that you ought to plant another row right in-between these, and then maybe another row next week. It's OK to cram them in there I think, and there's a benefit in staggering the planting so they're not all ready at the same time.

Oh - but the important reason for my being there was the dog-play :~D

This picture is a little disorienting. Takes a minute to figure out what's going on in it :~D

I let them play till they were tired, now Cisco's content and tired over there.

Here's my corn crop :~D

It's turning yellow, I think because it's rained so much this week.

What model of camera is that? It sure takes some sweet action shots.

It's a Cannon Powershot - a mid-range camera.

It's good and it's not good. I've learned with digitals and action to just take a lot of pictures and toss most of them. There is a delay, so you can't always time them the way you want.

Another nice long day at work. Friday tomorrow! Whew.

Heh....I can almost hear Homer's mock growls from here.

This has been the longest day ever!

I've got to remember to put batteries on the list so's I can take some pics of my garden. It's coming along nicely. My second batch of radishes should be coming in soon. Still have a bit of planting to do - mainly flowers, tho. I'm taking tomorrow off from work to try to catch up on life. Maybe I can get the trellises up.

I love your runaway radish. I saw it at work. And I kid you not I was listening to (the band called) Live's song "Runaway". I got a good laugh out of that.

Don't be worried, 2J! You, the boys and Steve will make friends wherever you go. Just introduce yourselves to the homeschooling, Cub Scout, VW owning, gardening, chicken raising crowds, and you'll have more friends than you know what to do with!

It will be a great adventure!

*sigh*

Another evening where it's really too damp to mow without making a horrible mess. I really need to get the other side of the backyard at some point...it's so long! Total jungle...I think I heard a macaw back there the other day...

Very... ;-)

Like I said, half the time when I'm sitting at the computer typing, he's next to me with his head in my lap, wiggling frantically...just happy with the world. ;-)

Hard to get mad at him for long when he's just so *goofy*.
