Took the fuzzy kids for a walk this afternoon and came face to face with a good size coyote. Startled the coyote as much as it did us.
We see them around here often, but that was the dogs first time, THAT CLOSE !

They sure are scrawny squirrely creatures.

I wonder what they'd charge me to stand around outside the door and sniff it.

Meat is murder. Yep, most of us agree. But some of us also agree that's it's absolutely delicious. Great for BBQ lovers, grillers, carnivores and people who love living at the top of the food chain, yes, meat is murder...and I'm okay with that. Tasty Tasty Murder.

The Broken Lawn Mower

Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right and the other is usually the husband.

When our lawn mower broke , my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed. But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first: the truck, the car, e-mail, fishing, always something more important to me.

Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.

When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a few minutes. When I came out again I handed her a toothbrush. 'When you finish cutting the grass,' I said, 'you might as well sweep the driveway.'

The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.

Christmas is the time when people put so many bulbs on the outside of their houses, you don't know if they're celebrating the birth of Jesus or General Electric.

I don't do lights outside the house since our house can't be seen from the road. Dh complains every year that we need to put lights on the house so we can enjoy them. WE? It gets cold here. My couch is INSIDE. I can't see lights on the outside of the house from inside. Am I missing something here?

Don't worry about trying to understand it. Christmas lights on the house, it's a guy thing.
