Darlene, Pat and I went to the US National Arboretum and had a delightful time hanging out at the BAK pond.  You know, Big Ass Koi Pond!   It was quiet, we started to feed a few fish…..   before you knew it we had a mother load of koi in front of us gulping, gasping, and swimming on top of one another to get the fish food!  It was so much fun, I was so happy Darlene had like 5 dollars in quarters, so we were able to use the fish pellet gum machine to get many handfuls of pellets to throw to the fishes.

Here is a video clip below, and I also have a little photo album for us to enjoy.

Enjoy your Tuesday! Leave us a comment, what are you doing today?  Did you like the BAK?  You have to remember, I am lonely here in Merryland, and this is my connection to the world!  lol  Well this and my cell phone is all I need.  Well, this, my cellphone and my treadmill is all I really need.  Well ok, this, my cellphone, my tread mill and my free coffee and apple 4 times a week!  lol

Peace Out

Do you remember “lost in translation?”

A while back we played lost in translation… We used this website, put in sentence and it translated it.  It is called “babelize.” You can find the original post when we played here.. I stumbled on it again and thought we could go for round 2!

Go to Lost in Tranlsation and babelize a sentence or two!   Let us know what you came up with!   Oh and the picture above was taken a couple few months ago here in Maryland.. Don’t you just love it!  lol

A while back I made some clay jewelry.  Earrings. Necklaces. Hat pins. Hair chopsticks.  I made them from sculpty clay and had a real fun time doing them.  They resembled the old arcade game creatures….   I decided not to make them any longer since they were the evil twins of the familiar arcade variety!  But just look how cute!  awww… I miss my little clay friends!

hola mis amigos!  Today is Take a guess Tuesday!   I took this picture three days ago and wanted to share.  It is a close up for sure, but what is it a close up of?  Take a peek and Take a guess! If you need a hint let me know!

P.S. Enjoy your day today and everyday!
*EDIT* Gordon revealed the answer to Take a guess Tuesday! It is ~ FROZEN COFFEE ~ Thanks for playing everybody!

awww look at that! I took this picture in North Carolina a while back..  You think this dog is loved by his owner?

*reposting – I am testing some stuff, plus lightning is cool!*

Last night we had a tremendous storm over here in Maryland. It was wicked cool. Pat and I went on the patio to witness the show… I caught a few bolts on my camera which was a first! As I was taking the video, I captured a mega thick, mega bright, mega loud lightning bolt that hit the apartments in front of us.

It was the largest lightning bolt I can ever remember seeing.. at the end of the clip you can hear me say “going in now” I was totally freaked out and my heart was beating so hard, I was nervous, jittery, it felt like I just completed an extremely difficult workout.. I felt fatigued from watching the lightning! weird!

Watch until the end of the video clip… you gotta see it!
I even have it in slow motion!!

Hey Everyone!  Thank y’all so much for the love and prayers!  I received so many comments, emails and text messages!  Hugs to all of you!

I am doing very well…

The doctor said it was not a teratoma. once I find out more I’ll share.  I have an appointment on June 27.  I was a little dissapointed that little chuckie wasn’t little chuckie after all!  (Pat nicked named it Little Chuckie) As sick as it sounds I was hoping for that rare “eyeball” case!   

Have a lovely day!  What are your plans for the weekend?

According to the fuzzy tail and shadow below… its about 5 o’clock. 5 is a good time. Many people are off of work. Parents are planning dinner and fixing to execute a lovely evening. Kids are riding there bikes and enjoying the afternoon sun. About this time tomorrow my left ovary will be tossed out with the trash. Good bye ovary and see ya later teratoma! I am not nervous. I am warm and fuzzy like a squirrel tail in the afternoon grass! Isn’t that a cute picture?

Tomorrow I am at the hospital at 12:10 pm and procedure is at 3:10 pm
-I get 2 slices in my abdomen – lower left and right for the instruments
-a scope is going in through my belly button (this is what is freaking me out most)
-slanting my body – so gravity naturally pulls my guts toward my head so the can get inside better.
-and then its all over and I get to go home. unless the incision is too big – depends how soft the teratoma is.
-they cut it in half to investigate the inside – depending on what the dr finds, he may or may not have it tested.
and waaa laa! I am teratoma free! Sounds easy enough for me! The hardest part will be not having my morning coffee!

Pat and I played pool yesterday and boy oh boy did he rack up! And not the racking up you do when you loose a game. I am talking about the racking up you get by kicking my butt and winning all of the bets! Lets see, with out me getting my phone out and pulling up the document of all his winnings….
of the top of my head he won:
one mac
one xbot game
steak dinner
and several others!
He was ruthless and even made the eight ball in on break too! The only thing I had going for me was the game right after he got the eight ball in on break. I ran the table and left him with 7 balls showing. I won a few, but he stomped me! I wouldn’t give up though. I kept trying… usually I can get him on the double or nothings… but not this time!

Cheers Pat, You got me!
We went to Fridays to get him a steak… and I got a couple cool looking shots at the bar. gah, I can’t believe he stomped me like that! Enjoy it while it last Pat!
