Wake Up, Wake Up, You Sleepy Head!

The dogs along with the Robins in my backyard seem to be competing for the last several mornings to see who can get me up the earliest. The Robins won this morning.



The Ipana Troubadours

When the red red robin
Comes bob bob bobbin'
Along, along,
There'll be no more sobbin'
When he starts throbbin'
His old sweet song.

Wake up, wake up you sleepy head!
Get up, get out o' bed!
Cheer up, cheer up the sun is red,
Live, love, laugh and be happy!

What if I've been blue?
Now I'm walking through
Fields of flowers!
Rain may glisten
But still I listen
For hours and hours!

I'm just a kid again,
Doin' what I did again,
Singin' a song,
When the red red robin
Comes bob bob bobbin'
Along

I've Got Those

Runny and itchy nose, watery and itchy eyes, sneezing, nauseated, sleepy feeling, tree and flower pollen Blues.

The Ballad Of Digging Dusty

Come and listen to my story 'bout a dog named Dust
A critter hunting fool, yeah, you could call it lust
Then one day while a moving fast as hell
Up from the ground, an enticing smell

(Critter that is, field mouse, fast asleep)

Next thing I know old Dust is digging fast
Looks to me, dirt's shooting out his ass

Belle says she can help Dust dig more efficiently
So she sticks her nose in deep to see what she can see

(Sniff she does, very deep, smelling mice)

Well now it's time to say goodbye and end this frantic search
Though the mouse has not been found, Dust's rep is not besmirched
I will bring him back again to this locality
And give him one more chance at digging oh, so frantically

(Digging Dusty, that's what I call 'em now,
Good dog, we'll be back soon, ya hear?)

Yippee-ki-yi-yay!

Finally got my new boots. I had ordered a pair online a week ago, which was a big mistake, and ended up taking them back to where I should of started in the first place; a real store. I've learned you must try on many pairs of boots to find the one pair that fits you the best as not all boots nor all feet are created equal. I spent about an hour yesterday afternoon with my sister doing just that at the Sheplers store in the Denver Tech Center.

I first tried Corral Boots but they just would not fit my feet. Then my sister handed me a pair of Lucchesse Boots and oh, my it was like slipping into a pair of well made gloves.  I'm in cowgirl boot heaven.

Whaddya You Know?

Today's date is 5/8/13. Does that grouping of numbers look familiar to all you math nerds?

Yep, it's part of the Fibonacci sequence.

The Doors Of Perception

If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite.

Which explains how it can be 80F/26.7C the day before yesterday and snowing this morning.
