At work today a co-worker visited on her day off with two little cuties. This little guy and his sister in the next pic. My heart was doing flips, I want one so bad... but right at the moment I can't afford him or her. This little guy and I got along really well. Nothing like puppy kisses to put a smile on your face. 

The little female, so adorable that I would have liked to dognap her. 

How true!!!  

What ever happens..

For the next three days I have off! Maybe I should be at work, not much is going on here. The lover didn't come for a visit this weekend like in the past. Much to my surprise he spent the day with his ex and family. For furture reference I'll not worry so much that I can't reach him by phone. He's in good hands. I'm usually not the jealous type, but hey I'm only human. Like I've always said; I'm not first in anyone's life. But enough of this self pity.
I just turned on the flood lights out back and a herd of deer is bedding down in the open. I counted six (does six make a herd?) They must feel safer in the open then in the woods tonight. In the distant I can hear fireworks from Clymer days. Damn I forgot it was going on! I might have ventured out today, instead I slept most of the day away. I really needed to catch up on my sleep. For the past few weeks I've been getting around 3-4 hours a night. Way to much on my mind. Anyhow I hope things look up soon or I'm giving up. On that note goodnight all.

Fall is in the air. Bright colors and blue skies at least today. Pick which mum picture you like best. Let me know by leaving a post. They make nice backround on your screen saver. This is #1 

#2 

This one: #3 

Autumn is starting...more colors to come as they turn. 

I followed a rainbow all the way from work tonight. As I got closer to home; the rainbow looked visually closer to be in my yard. But to my dismay it wasn't and there was no pot of any kind to be had. Although after a tough week it put a smile on my face. Rainbow have a way of doing that. 

The rainbow in the backyard. 

Do you remember where you were when the Towers fell? I was a work when the news hit, then glued to the tv for days after.

Who thinks these up? 

It's Sunday evening already..

This weekend is passing by so fast. The Lover is in for a visit and he's cooking me supper right now. Pork chops, mashed potatoes and corn. (the deal is I do the dishes when he cooks) Not that I'm hungry. We went to St. Louis church picnic for lunch around 1pm. Food there was: holupki, holuski, perogies, and hot sauage all for $6.75. Quarter bingo and a polka band. The weather was just right. Home for a nap and a walk around the yard. The day is almost over. He's here one more day, then Tuesday he goes back north and I head back to work. Have a good week everyone...

Hummingbird poised for flash picture. In the backround (if you enlarge) the deer are feeding at the apple tree. 

Not sure if they're Hibiscus or not. The blooms are huge. 

Perfect coloring 

Labor Day

I did my part; I worked 7am to 12pm for alittle extra cash in next pay; or should I say to pay for tax deductions. Anyho only about 10 people worked so it was kinda of relaxing. No rush to get things out, because we were working on tomorrows scripts. After work I headed to Wally marts, what's a Holiday if you don't make a quick stop in there. Creamer was tops on my list and some frozen food thingies for supper and the usual stuff that wasn't on the list. One stop and -$40 bucks I finally headed home. Noticed gas is down to $2.69 a gallon for regular, hope it keeps on dropping. After getting home I fixed myself a hot dog and labored on over to the couch for 40 winks. Still quite chilly here; I've already had the furnace on to get the dampness out from Ernesto. He hung around for two days. I missed the Indiana Fair this past week; with work and rain I wasn't in the mood to slosh around in the mud, and anyhow its not much fun going by yourself.
This weekend has proven to be a sad one. First the Mayor of Pittsbugh (Bob O'Conner) passed away from brain cancer. I didn't know the man personally but from what I've followed in the papers since his winning the race for Mayor; he was a people person and started to turn Pittsburgh around in his 8 months as Mayor. Prayers go out to his wife and family.
Then yesterday local commissioner of Indiana County died in his sleep of natural causes at his daughter's home in the DC area. Bernie Smith was best known for being a local disc jocky on WDAD Radio station. Lastly; The Croc Hunter died today. This shocked me the most. How can someone this experienced be caught in a situation like this? He leaves behind a wife and two children. Well thats all I have, bye for now- Delaine

THE NOTICE!!!!

This is what my job is starting to be like.
All you have to do is sit back and listen.
I know this happens in all jobs; but somedays
