Lizard and Laziness

All those things I said were coming soon in my last post--all lies. Well, the things weren't lies but the coming soon part was. I am simply too lazy to blog. Here are two shots of a lizard who happened to be on our front porch when I was bringing groceries in. The focus is a bit off, sorry. These guys move FAST. I was surprised I had time to get the camera and get back out before he fled. Head to tail maybe a foot long.

Coming Soon

Topics I need to write up: Marty changes bathroom faucet. Ray Davies in concert. Uno goes to vets twice. Whatever happened to the rest of the Uno story anyway? The Census. If I wrote the Bones Fox TV series plot. Marty's new bike. Marty so out of shape she doesn't know how to breathe! Hate Thy Neighbor. Local ads that amuse or irk me. Marty's carpentry adventures--the shipping crate and the coffin.

Seems like I'm forgetting some. Have off Wednesday for Cesar Chavez Day. Might catch up then. Last chance before April Fool's!

Mom Finds a Spinal Column

Possibly a rabbit? I was shocked at the size and completeness. Gotta get out my big book of animal skeletons and see if I can identify it. The things we find in the yard... sad.

Wardrobes

I love to build things. I am NOT skilled at it, but I love to get out the drill and a stack of lumber, sawdust everywhere, etc. I never use an actual "plan," just my own imagination. Usually nothing lines up right. Half the time warped lumber is largely to blame. Nonetheless, I occasionally put together something we actually use. Usually the project starts because I couldn't find just what I wanted in the store, else the price was outrageous. So I start my project, it's largely comical, and in the end sometimes it gets put to use. Otherwise I just cry over the amount of money I put into the wasted lumber. Right now I'm working on TWO, yes TWO, wardrobes. This is the 4' one, made from existing lumber at the house. The original pieces themselves were warped and not a consistent 4' in length, despite the labels. I did what I could. The other wardrobe, not shown, had a bit more planning on my part, and is 6' high. Neither is finished yet as I need to get more supplies. I have developed a great appreciation for craftsmen of olden days who produced some wonderful stuff by hand. If I had a proper workshop set-up and some actual training, I could be better. It's all learning curve ;)

Coyote

Coyote in our yard, Monday March 15th. Very cute! Love the tail. Can you spot him there in behind the bushes?

Spring Springs

Spring is here!!! I love the weather, hate the neighbor noises. Love the weather, hate the scantily clad. Love the weather, hate the weeds. Happy Beginning of Spring. Time to pack away all the black clothes.
