just call me pissy cat...

This week has just been the pits!
I will never get sick of LOL cats.  Never.  Make fun all you want!
  • I've been sick.  Low-grade fevers are painful and I'm a big baby.
  • My Orthopedic Surgeon wants to do exploratory surgery on my ankle.  Yippee.
  • That feeling on Wednesday when I thought I was getting better was all a joke.  I now have a full on sinus infection.  CAT scan yesterday and they cauterized my nose.  Said surgery is most likely in my near future.  Again, yippee.
  • In case you can't add, that's two surgeries and I've never even had one.
  • Storm knocked out power all over my neighborhood yesterday.  It was hot in my house and I had to wait til 7 for the pharmacy to open up and give me my meds.
  • I've missed boot camp all week.
  • The shelter is full.  AT CAPACITY.  Which means...you probably know what it means.  I hate that people give up their pets for no good reason.
  • We keep getting in dogs that have been left in the car.  In this heat!  One died and the others have suffered unimaginable pain.  It's just sick.
  • I cried two nights ago for the first time in a while because I miss my Dad.  Again, because I am a big baby when I'm sick.  It's pretty ridiculous.
SO...this was my bedside table and my dinner last night.  Which stinks because I got yummies from the farmers market yesterday afternoon and was so excited about cooking!  And yes, I ate in my bed.
Okay, so it's one week of my life.  Moving on!

P.S.  I don't care what's on my table.  I love it anyway because it's bright red.  AND I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches so what's the big deal?

One last note...my blog is being updated!  Should be done soon and I am already loving it. 

Have a great weekend peeps!

The following books are only a few of the unread books I have on my shelf.
 Do you have a favorite I should start with?

calling all gardeners!

WHAT is this all over my tomato plants?
It's only on my better boy and rainbow heirloom plants.  My cherry tomato plant is doing fine!
It's quite scary to look at....you might have nightmares.
What the hell?  Any ideas?
To help with the nightmares I will leave you with a prettier picture of my cherry tomatoes!

google +

What's the deal with Google +?  
Is anyone using it? 
Worth it or just something else to pull me away from things I really need to be doing?

I'm sick.  Summer cold.  Boo.
I had high hopes for this weekend but instead I got sick and it rained.  I won't complain about the rain because we needed it and my garden is quite happy.  And instead of complaining about the cold I will just post this picture that I found here.
I won't go into whether or not I agree with the verdict...I just love Dexter.  That's all.  :)
Happy Monday peeps!

care for an 8 ball?

I bought this bad boy at the Farmers Market last night.  
Looks like a strangely shaped zucchini but it's called an 8 ball. 
And from there I made a yummy dinner...
This was prep.  I poured the wine first.  :)
Please note that the cucumber, tomato and basil are from my garden.
DELICIOUS.
I adore summer fresh produce!

thank you sweet morgan!

I wanted to share some pictures from the David Gray concert I went to on Friday night.  I have to start off by telling you that sweet Morgan and Guy passed along their tickets to me when they decided to go out of town.  And they were good tickets.
Right smack dab in the center and only like 5 or 6 rows back.  AMAZING.
I would also like to say that a man holding a guitar is sexy.  And with an accent?  Swoon.
{I apologize, pics were taken on my droid and for the life of me I just can't take good pictures on that thing!}
Thank you Morgan.  It was perfect.  :)
