I am in a crap mood and this made me smile. Thank you.
ReplyDeletemy word verification is :unpetted
I think that's part of my bad mood. Someone needs to pet me.
Not heavily.
Just you know, kindly and softly.
:-)
Bethany- "unpetted" indeed. Reminds me of Jo's post this morning. Perhaps we all need to go to a cuddle party.

Lovely. I have some flower photos too that I will post this week.
ReplyDeleteI'm relaxed now. :)That yard of yours is so beautiful and you take such good care of it, as well as your li'l chickens.
ReplyDeleteAnother disappeared comment. I think I forget to click something.
ReplyDeleteFunny comment, Bethany, though I can't say I'd turn down the heavy petting, myself.
I would say definitely pink, and then purple for the second.
Every time I read your blog I wish I had chickens and more flowering plants.
ReplyDeleteOh and the color is pinkurple. Maybe definitely but I am not entirely sure. :)
oh and the fork was so funny! Poor chicken bum!
ReplyDeleteOoooh what pretty pictures. Naming colors is so hard for me. Recently, I did a little craft project involving pounding flowers onto paper, and I was amazed that the purplest flowers pounded blue and the pinkest pounded purple. I also tried to capture a photo of the deepest, velvetiest dark purple petunia I had ever seen and it kept photographing and videotaping mostly bluish, which I found just fascinating. The camera never catches the colors right for me, so I can only imagine how pretty those flowers in your yard must be. And the fork chicken deterrent is hilarious. You are a smart woman.
ReplyDeletei love your heron sunset photo. it's very evocative and peaceful.
ReplyDeleteSyd- Good!
ReplyDeleteNicol- Oh, there's a lot to the yard which is NOT beautiful. Believe me.
Jo- Could be, dear.
Caroline- "Pinkurple?" Yes. I think you are right.
Bethany- You noticed!
Mel- As with everything, my sense of color becomes less sure with age. The fork was one we found in the yard and was just laying by the plant so...
And it works!
Maggie May- It was a beautiful sunset.
I don't know shit about those colors. I had the big box of Crayola's too. Clearly, I am a sorry excuse for a human being. Laugh.
