Continue or not?

Wonder if I have anything interesting to say anymore and if I have any fans left over here at SDMOOSE?

Garden update




We've added a bed on the side of the house. Added some plants this weekend. Not much grows here because it's so shady. I have a good bed of spring shade plants (some nice natives including wild geranium, jack-in-the-pulpit, ginger) going on one side of the house. I admit (sigh) that I've planted some hostas. Dang. Not easy to grow stuff in this yard!!!! SORRY!

New Post



Liz has been bothering me to post something. So here are a few pictures. Caught some funny ones of Maggie using my new lens. Fun with photos!

Reading to the pumpkins

Who remembers....

.....Real Rosie from Sesame Street singing Chicken Soup with Rice!

Found it while searching around You Tube with the boy for songs.

We also listen to an Gene Kelly singing "Singing in the Rain".

We also like this kid version!

I-man was doing his version the other day with his new black umbrella, rain boots, rain puddles, He was singing Twinkle Twinkle and Baa Baa Blacksheep. It was quite hilarious. Wish I'd had a video of it.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

When asked, the I-man says "A flute player. And a dog"
Should be interesting!

Where is everyone?

I'm up....6:55am on a Sunday morning (could it be because I fell asleep at 8pm last night?). Where is everyone? No one on-line....

IS this a problem?

Do you think it's a problem than I-man is fascinated with the Homer Simpson magnet that says "Alcohol, the solution to and cause of all of life's problems". He's playing it over and over in the kitchen right now.

OK---this post is dedicated to my friend Lizard. I am sorry I haven't posted in so long and that I really have nothing of interest to say. Work is workBare with me...this writer's block is sure to pass. Creative writers can't be great all of the time!

Jogging partner for rent


Great jogging partner for those who prefer to jog in the shade, take short cuts home, and stop frequently to pee on the bushes....

Feel good about your exercise routine!

I had a patient today who was telling me all about this really great stationary bike her son got her for Mother's Day. She explained that it told her the calories burned, distance, time, etc. SHe was very proud and excited about it and the exercise she's doing with it. I thought it was great to hear her so excited about her new exercise!

She then told me she rides 2 minutes 3 times a day. She was very proud of this. Oh, and she uses small 3 lb dumbbells for arm exercises when she rides.

So....all of YOU should be pretty darn proud of whatever you are able to accomplish in the world of activity/exercise!

Sister's profession?


Why does my sister (yes, I have a sister) have THREE Fisher Price barns in her basement? She won't even share one with her little nephew....

What does YOUR toothbrush look like?

Got a green version of this toothbrush
for the I-man. Has changed my life. He will now brush his own teeth instead of fighting and screaming when I tried to brush his teeth with the lame old boring ones we had before....
Got the Crayola version because all others were totally stoooooopid character things. Geez. Did we have this much crap marketing when we were kids?

Latest farm haul


Here is what I got on Wednesday after spending 3 hours tilling the cabbage patch and helping to squash potato beetle larvae. The radishes were so sharp that I couldn't even eat them. And Ike ate about 1/2 of the strawberries in one sitting....
