Oohh..pictures!

Gather round' to see my pics.. Well, besides the glue pictures, I took some other pictures for the Funky Photo.




The first one is my foot, I thought that it looked cool for some reason, ignore the fact that I need a new paint job :P. Then there is the cat, she isn't a very good subject because when she gets where I want her to be, she moves! And the light isn't the best but I liked that about them. The other one is of the peonies that I cut and I just think they look cool squished together and I liked the shadow of the pointy petals on the pink petals. I finally got to take my bike out for a little ride last night, even though it was warm out. Its been in the 90's here for the past 4 days..makes it hard to want to do anything outside. The bike is pretty nice, I'm not used to it so it feels kinda weird, kind of like a new car. Things work and feel differently. But I'm cool with that, as long as it doesn't make my ass hurt! My goal is to start riding to B/F's house, which is only about a mile from my house. There really is no reason for me to drive over there to hang out, especially if we are not going to go anywhere that requires the car. I really feel like it is a waste.

These pictures I took this morning. We have a major set (one of the only) of railroad tracks behind the building and a lot of times there are interesting things coming in (or going out I guess) on the tracks and I saw these giant spools and I thought that they looked pretty cool. Just sitting there. I don't know what is on them but they are huge.

Well, I'm going to get some work done. but tomorrow I will be posting some more pictures of my garden. It is grown so much since the last time. Ya'll have a good day- Ohh BTW my Twins won last night , against the Braves. So, GO TWINS!

Anyone?

Else happy that it's Monday? For some reason, I am? Fever you ask?? Nope, no fever! Just in a good mood today, and hey I'll take it. So let's see..Well, my garden is growing (yippee). I measured the few beans that are coming up and they were both about 2 3/4 inches tall, they looked taller today. And, I bought a new bike this weekend. And here it is!


Its a green Diamondback. I haven't really had a ton of time (or energy) to really get out and ride it, I"m still getting it adjusted to where I like it. But it is nice to have a bike that isn't WAY to small for me.



This is one of my beans. It wasn't all folded up like this when I peeked at them before I left for work. If you've never grown beans, the pole kind, it is so much fun. And the beans are pretty good, better than frozen. I'm hoping the peas do well, I"m most excited about those. And I've started a couple of pumpkin seeds in a dish, just to see if something happens with them.
I did a lot this weekend. I went to a concert on Friday night, then on Saturday we went bike shopping. Then B/F helped me put together the frame for this yard game I'm building. Its called Polish Horseshoes. And then my sister, BIL,and Owen came over and we had steaks and played some ladder ball. I'm sure that Heather will post pics of all the excitement on her blog. Then we went to Home Depot to get some plywood, for the horseshoes. But I'm a tool and got washers that are bigger than what I supposed to get, I need 2.5 inch but I thought I needed 3 in- so maybe I'll take them back- plus the spray paint I bought is crap its really powdery and even comes off of paper- which it should stick to! Then I tried to just relax a bit on Sunday, just did laundry, watched my Twins win and dinked around with my bike and rode it around in the driveway and the yard and stuff. Plus, it was HOT yesterday and I was tired from the other days so my energy was low... Well, I think that's all I have for today, the Photo challenge for this week is close ups, so I have to think of something to take pics of.. So, I hope that everyone has a great day and is in a good mood!
