Ahhh Vampire Chat!

first derailment today kinda busy and now nothing

 

Hi, Ori!

 

I was visiting Ty yesterday and there was a busy squirrel planting acorns all over the back yard.

 

no planting here


they usually just pile them in the garage then sit there and eat them and then leave me a pile of shells

 

My Grandma was the squirrel whisperer. The wild ones in the neighborhood would go right up to her because they knew she would give them peanuts. There was a patio out back where I would play and the they would just run right past me and stand by the door waiting for her. She had to stop doing it because they started to really pester everyone else in the neighborhood in the same way. Word got around about which crazy old lady was doing it.

 

I dont have enough squirrels around to be crazy with them.

 

We really couldn't see anything today on our way through the Carolinas, it was raining very hard and visibility was zilch with all the trucks on the road and the spray. It was a pretty intense drive for me, my friends had offered to take over but I wanted to stick it through. It took about 3 and a half hours once we got out of the mess in Atlanta.

Thought of you Lynn when we went through SC. I was hoping maybe, somebody in a car next to me might just be you and we were closer than ever, but i doubt it lol. Things you think of when you're driving.

 

watch CHiPs and the rv has a confederate flag on the visor.
some runaway (needs a transplant) kid goes to the Mohave desert to see the space shuttle land , hitching he gets in the rv ..

 

seen a black squirrel today running the power lines in town...then around the corner half of one laying in the street i guess he was playing chicken with the cars

 

black squirrel is prized around here., Ive only a few hunting spots where they dominate .. big as a full grown cat. ive not visited that area in a while..

 

theyre kind of small here

we had a pretty big one around the yard a few years ago but since that one dissapeared they all seem pretty small

 

I need a family of black squirrels around here... Don't think it's legal to capture and release though

 

couple red squirrel in the park they are pretty big too. now ive missing some small games hunting, ive time for that now, since the deer season is done for me. all to easy this deer season was. I can remember a time where no deer were taken, and that was over weeks of both bow hunting and rifle hunting. now, pttf,, deer just stand there saying kill me.

 

worked all day and now comes the worst part....giving them the total

parts are such a rip off i wish i was in the parts business instead of the knuckle busting installation end of it

 

Mom said I started when I started walking so at about a year old. She use to follow me around when I was a child in case I did something dangerous or could get hurt. She stopped when I was a teenager as studies were done by then that show you are not likely to do something that you do not know how to do.

When we were first married Paul use to follow me about but claimed it made him exhausted to watch me do stuff all night and gave up.

Thankfully both the kids do not sleepwalk.

I also sing and play piano when sleep walking so the power to ignore noise is important in our house. The kids from birth never woke up from noises like that or housework as they heard it all the time and it never disturbed their sleep.

 

The trees in the city where i am are just starting to mature so we do not have many squirrels at all here. I have only seen a black and grey one in all the time I have lived here (3 years).

 

That is completely wild! Wow.

My daughter does it rarely and you can tell if she's asleep because she scratches different places on her body while she's trying to talk to you.

 

reminds me of grandma in the movie "the visit" lol

I have seen two children have night terrors. I don't every want to witness that again.
