Deer in our backyard

13 October 2008

Yes, a deer was in our backyard under the crabapple tree.  This was yesterday morning.  DB was up at 4:30 a.m. and I was still snoozing.  He said he pulled the curtains up on the patio door and Chase was barking and growling loud and sounded fierce, and the other two were standing by the door with their hackles standing straight up from the neck to the rum and the chorus of barking began.  DBs looked out the door, turned the outside lights on and there the deer was, staring at them.  I told him he should have taken a picture of it (camera sitting right by the dining table)! :)  *DBs gave me the “roll the eye balls” look.*

As soon as DBs let the boys out and he followed along, the deer leaped over our fence and away he went.  He said it could be a buck, not a doe.  But anyhow, the deer must be eating what’s left of the crabapples on the ground and tree.

I’m sure our neighbors were very happy with us with the boys barking at 4:30 in the crack of dawn.  I have see a deer up close and personal while out on my walks.  Honestly I’m not afraid but I’m more afraid the boys will charge for the deer and pull me along.  The many times I saw a deer with the boys with me, the command STOP worked good.  *Touch wood*  The boys really stop dead on their tracks but the growling continues and the hackles stays up till the deer disappears.

Photohunt: Hanging

This week’s  theme is Hanging.  Here is a picture of what’s left of the basketball net hanging by itself on the hoop.  This in-ground steel basketball pole, hoop, backboard, and net are as old as the house.  It was installed when the first owners moved-in in 1966.  The net felled apart last year, must be from the weather and wear and tear through the 40+ years.

Photohunt: Pointed

Another week gone by…this week’s theme is Pointed.   I took this picture last evening while waiting for dinner.  Chase and Cooper were at it with the torn up soft frisbee.  This tug-of-war game is an everyday routine for them.  Good for them and definitely good for me; I don’t have to walk them two so much!

The public pool in the neighborhood

29 June 2008

The neighborhood just opened up a public pool.  It’s j ust right behind our home.  How fortunate for us.  We can probably walk or climb over the fence for a free dip.

The neighborhood public pool

I was glad I was not in part of the day yesterday.  I came home at 4:30 p.m. from Satay2Go and all I could hear was screaming and more and louder screaming, yelling from the kids and the great speakers they have installed by their pool.  It finally quiet down around 8:30 p.m.  DB said the kids started out in the pool after the quick rain fall which was around 11:00 a.m. 

Today, it started at 9 a.m. and as of now it’s still going.  I am so tempted to call the cops to launch a complain, how noisy the stereo is which got louder and louder as the day goes on.  The stereo is the one that is frigging irritating.  By summer end, I will be able to learn some good old rap.

This week’s  theme is Water.  I didn’t do much hunting for pictures but will just post this picture of water fountains.  Fung shui believes that putting a water fountain on the front yard of your house will bring in fortune to the household.

Check out Smorty

16 July 2007

I have found a new advertiser where I can blog for money.  It is call Smorty.  Smorty is a place where bloggers like me can write about the opinion of a product.  Before I started blogging I was wondering how I can increase my chances on how to get paid for blogging.  A fellow blogger told me about Smorty and I am glad I signed up with this network.  It is a place where you place your blog advertising for the advertiser in writing.  Before I started to blog for money, I was quite skeptical if I can really write for an advertiser, however after writing a few posts, I gained my confidence and seeing the money rolling in to my bank account was the booster.
