May 14th Photo-A-Day N
So I am trying my hardest to figure a way to use the Photo-A-Day N with the fact that I finally did it!! I FOUND an ANTLER!! Ya know an aNtler! Bear and I have been going out on a morning hike, which for me is unheard of! I am climbing rocks. I am dinged and dented, scratched and sweaty but having so much FUN!! There is no noise other than the birds and bear and I traipsing around. Antlers or SHEDS as the locals call ’em. (Aren’t I fancy? Knowin’ all the correct terms and everything!) are hard as heck to spot! Since no one has lived here for…

May 13th Photo-A-Day M
I had a fairly good idea for today’s letter but then Rosie reminded me Photo-A-Day M for MONEY PIT! Yes, I have a million dollar view. I have a craft room that would make Martha Stewart jealous. (okay, not really, I’m sure that hers is equally as nice as mine. HOWEVER, she probably doesn’t have deer that lick the door! HA! I win again!!) So, Rosie thank you so much for today’s prompt. We started to work yesterday on the decks. The contractor truly is amazed that no one has fallen through and down 2 stories. OHHOLYCRAP!! Oh SO very, very bad. Oh SO BAD. I’m on a loop in…

May 12th Photo-A-Day L
Ahhhhhhhhhhh today’s Photo-A-Day L letter just happens to coincide with Mother’s Day and our Anniversary! So I will take this opportunity to use the letter L for LOVE. The LOVES of my life!! Hummmm….…. should I be politically correct and add The Husband first? It is our anniversary after all. Or should I just skip straight to Alice?? (Okay I’m going to start with The Husband; but y’all know the truth right?!?!) Cause really, I am NOT that nice! The Husband; without him the rest of my LOVES wouldn’t fall into place. Thank you for all you do. All the love you give. All your hard work to provide a…

May 11th Photo-A-Day K
Today’s is Photo-A-Day K is a fun photo. When we first moved up here I noticed this little sign. It’s placed just under the larger PRIVATE ROAD (the very last house on the road is us!) and under the neighborhood watch signs. There is a yellow, super small sign. Since I always felt like I was in a hurry to go somewhere or do something I never took the time to stop, get out of the car and actually READ the little yellow sign. I honestly didn’t think it would be anything of interest. Except of course why is it so small?!?! After months of driving past, I finally stopped…

May 9th, Photo-A-Day I
Today’s Photo-A-Day I As in INSECTS! Remember last year how I complained about all the wasps and hornets on the decks? I filled trap after trap and yet they still kept coming!! We never did get to sit outside and enjoy the sunsets on the deck. Flash forward to Home Depot as I am picking up yet a different kind of wasp trap because …. well, DAMN they just kept coming! When I struck up a conversation with a long time resident of Sandpoint. He laughingly said “You aren’t some city girl that puts the traps where you want to sit are you??” In my head I screamed: Palllllllllllllllllease!! Do I…

May 8th Photo-A-Day H
So G ended out to be a glorious nightmare. One minute I writing the next minute POOF. Page gone. (Mid mocking that I couldn’t find a G to write about). Who knew G was such a touchy letter. Photo-A-Day H I hope is better. Two phone calls with GoDaddy. Which takes hours. On hold forever. Those poor people I can only imagine the abuse they get daily because when you sit on hold for 65 minutes ya tend to get crabby (speaking for myself that is). I have to take a deep breath…….. it’s not the techs fault…. it’s not the techs fault…… I hate GoDaddy’s music……….it’s not the…

May 7th Photo-A-Day G
Photo-A-Day G gave me FITS!! Shessshhhhh I have spent most of the day phone in hand trying to find a unique G Seriously, who knew G would be such a stumper for me? I have no gargoyle to snap a photo of. I have no grass. I already did green. Gross except well, that just sounded gross. G for grape. Nope, don’t have any. Bear and I went on our morning hike and found NOTHING that started with a G. GOOD GRIEF Charlie Brown! Then I went to save this post and walk around some more……….. and jokes on me. The blog is GONE!! So I give you G for…

May 6th Photo-A-Day F
Photo-A-Day F is for fun. F for forest. F is for a very bad cuss word. F could be so many things but I chose F for FUNGUS. Okay, don’t get all excited. I’m not going to show you a toenail or some gross skin condition. I am not that mean. Well, I am but, not today I’m not. You are welcome. Bear and I went on our daily nature walk. I am bound and determined to find discarded antlers. We have so many bucks all year and I just KNOW someone dropped at least ONE antler on the property. Right?!?! Yes, I know…. shiny….sidetracked…… back to my F during…
