Thursday Thoughts

First, yes, I did get some of those luscious green beans mom posted about yesterday. Mom has learned her lesson on that score.

Second, mom was afraid that I learned how to eat the green beans off the bush, but the truth is much worse. I have learned to eat the green bean bush, leaves and all. Mom turned around from weeding and caught me with a plant in my mouth (she says! I would remind you all that there is no photographic evidence of me assaulting the green bean bush, therefore I am innocent.)

Third, as a result of the above, mom, dad and PlusOne are not letting me get anywhere near the green bean bushes, but don't you worry, I wasn't born yesterday and if I want green beans, I will get green beans. Trust me!

Wordless Wednesday

Tattle Tale Tuesday

Some things never change.

We Got Off Easy

We never lost power, though the lights did flicker once or twice and we had no basement water so mom figures we got off really easy. Apparently we were on the "right" side of the hurricane/tropical storm, which means that we got more wind and less rain.

This photo is from west and north of us. Boy, am I thankful we are not there!


Thanks for all the concern and thoughts. Like I said, we were lucky and I can honestly say I don't mind being lucky this time.

Easy Like Sunday Morning - NOT

There really isn't much we can do today. Watch it rain, hope our roof doesn't get blown off, or Mom's sunflowers get flattened, hope we don't lose power, or have a flooded cellar. Still, we really can't complain. There are people MUCH worse off than we are. We hope they are safe and sound and get their power back on real soon!

Irene Who?

Mom says Irene is coming and we have to prepare (like taking in all the yard furniture). She also said that if Irene smooshes any of her green bean plants or sunflowers, it's not going to be pretty. All I know is that Irene should stay away from my mom if she's smart, and all of my blogger buddies as well. Getting mom upset is NOT what you want to do. (Of course, that's why I do it all the time, lol)

Request

Mom's coworker, Angel, is in need of prayers and good thoughts for her daughter (young teacher). Mom would appreciate it if you could send a prayer and thoughts of recovery to Young Teacher. She is in real need of them and mom totally believes in the power of prayer and the blogosphere.

Thank you very much, it means a lot to mom.
