They came down the chimney and hubby was determined that they should leave the same way.... so he lit a fire in the boarded up fireplace.... never saw a raccoon move so fast with his tail trailing smoke!Shammickitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11969803866899076638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193817821028926017.post-47761039675888176212010-08-15T19:42:44.561-04:002010-08-15T19:42:44.561-04:00i sure miss your posts. thank you for the sweet co...i sure miss your posts. thank you for the sweet comments on my last post. you are always such a nice and good friend to me...<br /><br />hugs and love to you...<br /><br />chrisChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09910078888984045131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193817821028926017.post-2088140829288579762010-07-21T10:22:49.796-04:002010-07-21T10:22:49.796-04:00good to hear from you, you will love the fish cake...good to hear from you, you will love the fish cake recipe,<br /><br />GillGill - That British Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17456247587052149765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193817821028926017.post-64769273673856966012010-07-12T11:25:30.025-04:002010-07-12T11:25:30.025-04:00Yep.

My husband says that I am the most unobservant person he knows so I'm with you on the nature front (and on the person front). I now try to look closely at everyone and everything to see if I'm registering it all. Not sure I'm going to win though.<br /><br />Where I normally turn my car around beside the local school (I must have done this twice a day for most of the school year) I suddenly noticed that there is this huge felled Christmas tree. And I can't think that it had been done recently. So yep! That's at least 6 months of not noticing it's there....sigh.Hadriana's Treasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03740533954842010870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193817821028926017.post-2560999323868129832010-06-25T19:19:43.058-04:002010-06-25T19:19:43.058-04:00mom you need glasses, fast!
