walked over to Ultracuts for a trim and on the way spotted a plant that had not been put into the soil in one of the big city planters…

I didn’t want to arrive at the salon with dirty hands so I decided to wait until I was on the way home…

when I did arrive back at the planter, it was clear that the plant had not been planted as it was just laying on the soil… I had wondered if a critter had maybe pulled it out of its spot…

I dug a hole and popped it in… hope it is happy now…

I’ve been asking my grandson to get the car washed for ages…

he had numerous reasons why it didn’t happen, but they boiled down to the fact that it would just get dirty again…

I finally gave an ultimatum that it had to be washed… poor thing was filthy…

he went out Wednesday evening and brought Indy home clean… even though it was dreadfully cold, thankfully, none of the doors froze up…

she looks so nice;-)…

we’ve tidied up the walkway between the pond and garden and I had swept the path a few days ago…

yesterday I looked at it and discovered that it was once again covered in dirt, sigh…

as I watched the sparrows having their dust baths it occurred to me what the problem was, lol…

today I swept it again, pretty much knowing that it won’t stay tidy for any length of time…

maybe I will put down that fancy magic sand that turns solid once it has water put on it…

it will be interesting to see how the birds respond…

this little red squirrel bounces around the garden like crazy, along with some other friends…

usually I don’t mind, but a few days ago I had to clean two chairs and a table from where their little paw prints covered everything, after the previous night’s rain, lol…

they are currently jumping onto the chair, then the table, and launching onto the bird feeder…

after wiping the chairs, I had to wait for them to dry before putting on the cushions… I’d cleaned up quite a bit of the mess, before I thought to take these photos…

little beggars…

I started this post many weeks ago after Indi had a second bath in just over a week… that was all before the world came to a grinding halt…

after the first bath, she spent a few days with my grandson and I’m not sure what happened, but when I got back into her she was so dirty I couldn’t see out the windows, lol…

she looked beautiful afterwards and I anticipated that the mucky weather would get her dirtied up fairly quickly…

I haven’t been out of the house for 43 days so she’s been hunkered down in the garage although a few weeks ago I did move her onto the driveway for a short time as I cooked steak on the grill…

today I was reminded by Facebook, and an email from Nelson at Birchwood Toyota, that it is her second birthday;-)…

as we were driving home tonight the clouds were very cool looking…

leaving the office it looked as though we were going to be in for a snowstorm… very dark gray… but above those, there were gorgeous white lines against the blue sky…

once I got home, took some shots out the front…

the first pictures were through the living room window… had to toss all of them and retake the shots out the front door because the window is so dirty… gonna have to clean that, lol…

getting lighter and feeling warmer each day… this makes me happy…

Shadow looks great… yesterday my son-in-law changed her tires…


she looks so pretty with the summer bling on… much sportier, lol…

I have noticed that whenever it rains she gets visibly dirty… I love her colour but do remember how the silver car rarely looked like it needed a wash… different story these days…


got these shots when we arrived at work this morning…

was talking with someone recently about getting a new car and trying to figure out the best time to do that…

can still remember when I went for my first car on my own… wasn’t sure if I would even qualify… nerve wracking but it all worked out fine…

those big girl pants are getting more and more comfortable…

not sure how I feel about that…
