In This Crazy Life...

These are some quotes that really spoke to me on Pinterest. I obviously didn't crop them and can't now, I could but it would be a process and I'm not willing to do that right now. I just want to get all of these drafts published. I was going through some of Kev's old papers and found some drawings he made. I found this. I guess he never finished it but it was supposed to be a Phoenix. I finished it with this quote, the date of his death, and his initials. My plan was to get it tattooed on my side. I never went though with that plan and I probably won't. I think I may clean it up a bit and blow it up and frame it. It is still special to me, but I just don't see myself getting another tattoo. 

Introducing Indy Lee (the Lee came later in her life. It was Kev's middle name. I didn't want her. We already had two dogs and a cat. That was enough for me, but this man right here wanted a puppy. Our neighbor's dog had them and he talked me into going down there to see them one night. I may have already written about this. (Insert "I don't know" emoji). Anyways... we got one of them and let me just say four years later, she is the most ridiculously spoiled animals ever! Action shot with that tongue. She can twist and turn her body all sorts of ways and sleep. Those ears! Water bottle fun! Drinking out to he rain chains.

Looks like I spent this day building those tomato cages. Indy helping by chewing on all of the bamboo stalks. Sh his so rotten, but the sweetest puppy in the world. Here it is! The finished product. Just FYI... I never did this again. It took way too long and they were pretty much all rotted by the end of the summer. Too much work to do every year, bu they are pretty. Cucumber flowers Peppers Tomatos Baby Cucumbers Green beans (They were a purple variety)

I found a really neat way to make your own tomato cage on Pinterest. It required lots of bamboo. My friend Cody's aunt has a forest of bamboo in their years. So we went to cut some. There were stalks as big round as small trees. This was all the bamboo we cut. Next step... taking off all the branches. Be looking for pictures in future posts. Just some neighbor bulls.  And a friendly donkey!
