Sky Watch Friday- What the Sky Wasn't

This picture is a lot more interesting then it was ever meant to be. I'll explain a bit later in my comments.


These were taken at dusk after a somewhat rainy day. To enjoy more Sky Watch Friday Posts here at Wigger's World. Thanks for all the comments last week and all those to come.





So I posted this on the comment page but it seems to skipped over so I've posted it here as well:
Blogger Low Iron Only said...

sorry it took so long on the response but I don't have a computer at home. I tried to use it on my phone but it wouldn't let me:(

So the story behind the photos:
The second photo is just as the sky was. Point and shoot and a beautiful sky from God.

The first was a fluke. Truls hit on it first, the water. When I went back to my computer I was astonished to find it, not knowing where, or how it came to be. These were taken while driving? It even got me at first. That is actually just a picture of the sky. Turns out I didn't roll my window down enough to take the shot. What resembles a land mass is just the edge of the window, and the other line that runs across the picture is a power line. If you really look those are not reflections just the bottom of the trees.

So again my apologies on holding out for so long and thanks for all the comments. (and Craver, I'll have to post a blog next week about why the name)

New Guy in the Neighborhood

This little guy walked passed me yesterday morning. It was kind of chilly and the wind was blowing. It was almost as if he wanted to come in.





This was the sight I saw when i got home. I like to think it's the same Pidgey, waiting to say hello.

The Blue Totes

I'm sure 99.9% of Americans own those clear storage boxes. You know the ones, some have a hinged lid, some look more like a giant Tupperware container- they are measured in quarts. The one I think most Americans own is in the 62 quart range. I almost guarantee there is at least one in your house right now. It might be holding toys, or shoes, or last seasons wardrobe. At my house we have like ten of these. What is more interesting is the large size totes, you know, the 40 gallon size. (For comparison purposes that 62 quart tote is the equivalent to 15.5 gallons). So we have these large totes at my house I use them to store my clothes. Not my husbands, not my daughters, just mine. I also have a dresser, and a small children's dresser and most of the closet. Now this might not seem like a whole lot at first glance closet, dresser, tote of clothes. Must just be last season. Let me clarify... I have four. Four forty gallon totes of clothes. Four forty gallon totes of clothes, two dressers, and most of a closet. So I downsized by one tote yesterday. But some how I'm supposed to get to none. I'd rather not have any totes, or like maybe two 62 quart totes with last/next seasons clothes. So my minimalistic journey has not progressed very far from when i started back in August. But we are thinking about having a yard sale.

Marriage
Interesting topic. Marriage in the past could easily be defined as the contented progression of a hopefully substantial courtship. Well planned, well executed, and in order. By order I mean you meet someone wonderful, you date, you fall in love, you plan a wedding date, you save to buy a house, you get married. Something along those lines. Then you think of children and did we buy our house in the right school district, are our jobs enough to start a college fund and buy diapers. I, we on the other hand are definitely not renting in the best school district. Will not be able to start a college fund anytime soon and got married after the birth of our daughter. So in essence not necessarily the best order to do things but this day in age by far not the most uncommon. Most people who know me know these things. Which brings me to the question I keep hearing lately. So how do like it? What marriage? Um, well since you haven't been paying attention.... it's about... the same. Except I have a ring to wear, and a whole lot of places to call, changing your name is a hassle. Advice: When paying at Wal-mart, do not sign your maiden name plus new last name if it's not on your credit/atm card. This is the only time they compare ID's with credit cards, and then they want to see other things with the same name. So really (lol)I'm not enjoying that aspect of it. But otherwise... it's the same. But thanks for asking.

SkyWatch Friday - My Favorite Fellows




i guess i can't really call them fellows due to the color difference i'm pretty sure one is a female. they've been flying around my office and i was lucky enough to get them together, though not too clear since my zoom options aren't all that great. In person though they make a cute little pair.
