The perfect day

For sleeping

It's been cold windy and the perfect day for being lazy and napping. And that's just what we did. In between naps we lounged in front of the television in a semi conscious state. Sometimes doing nothing is quite nice

The Brenda Photo Challenge (9-4) Photo Essay

Just the sound of the word essay is enough to bring back memories of the anxiety I always felt when I had to write one. I hesitated about joining this time around at the Brenda Photo Challenge  when I read that word. I thought long and hard about a subject and finally settled on one. Two days later, I changed my mind and came up with something different. I procrastinated, I thought some more. I changed the subject again. More procrastination and finally "YIKES" it's due.
So here it is.

I climbed the tree of happiness to catch the view.
I saw all the lings I love to do.
The crafts that give me such a thrill,
the paper, the glue, learning to quill.

My camera and flowers a beautiful sight
My program that helps them look just right

The grass, the birds the sun shining bright.
The joy I get from a West Highland White.

Daddy won't be coming home

Daddy crossed the line. He won't be coming back, I made sure of that. He never should have invaded my privacy the way he did.

There I was, all set for a nice relaxing hot shower after a long day of work. Out of the corner of my eye I saw him. He was hovering over me.  I nervously kept my eye on him in case he decided to make any quick moves. He kept his distance but this wasn't the end of it.

The next day he was there again. This time he was a little too close for comfort. He had climbed down the shower wall. So I quickly washed him down the drain. And that, my friends, is why daddy won't be coming home.

Time to make the donuts

Sometimes during the first hour of work I get a little bored with no one to talk to. Not often, but sometimes. On those occasions I need to entertain myself with something other than just my job. I pulled out the cell phone and took a couple pictures.

The word sanitary on this thing cracks me up. It's very old and not the cleanest looking thing. Although you should see it on the days when I'm not working. Some people don't always clean it off very good and it's got dried on cake donut mix crusted all over it just about every Monday morning. I didn't think to take a picture of the whole thing so you could see what it looks like. That is the handy dandy little contraption that I fill with cake donut mix and use to crank the donuts out in to the fryer shortening.

And this would be my beat up looking fryer. It's been there much longer than I have. Notice the little black hole on the front of it next to the orange/yellow light? That used to be a little green light that melted out when one of the girls set the fryer on fire. Gee, all the exciting stuff happens on my days off.
