What is your favorite day of the week? I wonder if anyone ever chooses Monday for their favorite. :)
Mine? Every day I wake up and can get up and eat my breakfast and still hear the birds sing and see the beauty of nature out my window is a beautiful day and a favorite day. Truly.
We've had much needed rain this week after some very hot and humid days. We got around 2 inches or so at our house, but several counties including ours have a flood warning out for area creeks and streams. Minor flooding is also predicted from the Missouri River.
I'm hoping that since this will be a cooler weekend, BG and I can get a project or two crossed off our list. One of those involves BG getting up into the attic. He's been putting this job off, but hot weather is here and
The Mallards were seen in Branson last month. They were in front of the Hilton along the sidewalk as we strolled back to our car from the Landing. Wish we were there this weekend instead of BG having to crawl up into the attic to work!
If you've been following me awhile, you know how I love nature and all of God's creatures. I am blessed to have so many cute little critters to watch and photograph in my own backyard and Back 6. This little guy was a bit too hopeful while chasing his girlfriend. You never know what you'll notice until you've loaded the photos onto your computer. I think I need
Happy Friday to you!

laughing at your cover-up! :) congrats on rain! we need some. would welcome some run-off. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got some much needed rain. These are all wonderful shots, and I laughed with Tex at your cover-up...too cute! I've been out three times this week for country drives with the dh, So nice to just get outside!
ReplyDeleteRandom loveliness - sweet creatures!
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha...I noticed the butterfly before reading the explanation. You're too funny!
ReplyDeleteHA HA HA---I never have noticed a squirrel like that.... How funny!!!! Aren't photographs just awesome??????
ReplyDeleteWe had some much-needed rain here too yesterday and the night before. We needed it---and still need more. But--I'll take what we can get.. Think we only got about 3/4ths an inch.
When I worked fulltime, my day off was FRIDAY (I worked Sun-Thurs)... SO--I loved Friday for a different reason than most do!!!!!
Good Luck with your attic job. My folks had a huge attic fan in our attic --and it helped tremendously,
Hugs,
Betsy
All I know is I get so sick of cold weather, and before I know it, I'm starting to complain about the heat!

Your squirrel picture is hilarious, he is wearing a tiny pastie! He has really caught the love bug. The butterfly on the flowers is just gorgeous, and so is the hole in the sky with light pouring out! I totally agree with you on favorite day of the week, any day that I can get up and have my husband and my health. Have a wonderful weekend, and try to get out of the attic to see God's beauty once in awhile!
ReplyDeletei am still laughing at the squrriel shot ... you have me in giggles. i hope you find some great shots. happy weekend!!
ReplyDeletelove the new bloggy look too ... i enjoy it! ( :
Me too, love it, still chuckling..... Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteHi Cheryl~
ReplyDeleteI love the little squirrel - he's in love . . . ;0)
I love Fridays too - but with summer here, sometimes, week-ends can be like running a marathon! I would have to say that Thursday is actually my favorite day, it's the day that I have my husband all to myself! Friday and Saturday he golfs, (in between softball games for my granddaughter), and on Sunday we have church. So Thursday is our day!
I love all of your pictures, and pray that you will not be flooded, or in the path of some huge storm! Have a wonderful week-end sweet friend!
Hugs,
Barb
Tee hee hee. I'm still chuckling at the squirrel. Well done! Your photos are really beautiful and it's such a glorious time of the year isn't it. I hope BG doesn't get too hot up in the attic. Enjoy your weekend. Pam
ReplyDeleteI'm with you and every day is my favorite as well. Beautiful photos as always.
ReplyDeleteLOL on the the last picture; way cute. My husband needs to clean our garage and there hasn't been a minute to do it. We have family right now that we are enjoying so that take more time than usual. You will both feel so good when it is completed. I loved all your pictures as usual they are awesome.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs!
Mr Squirrel was certainly on a mission . . . liked the butterfly pastie . . . what a hoot!
ReplyDeleteGreat random post. I really love Mondays--- always have. It is like the start of a fresh new week with all kinds of possibilities open. Love all your pictures-especially the squirrel! lol xo Diana
ReplyDeleteCheryl!! I had perfectly sensible things to say about this post...but now they're all gone as I laugh myself silly over your squirrel cover-up!! :D :D :D
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the attic project. Your nature shots are beautiful. LOVE that squirrel.
ReplyDeleteOh Cheryl, you made me laugh this morning. That edited squirrel picture is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to BG in the attic. I recently forced myself to do a thorough cleaning of mine. Luckily it was completed before it was totally unbearable up there.
The best part of our big move last winter was getting that attic all cleaned out and it being done before it got so hot up there. We threw away, donated and gave away sooo much stuff....sure feels good to not have that chore on our minds. Good luck on your project. :)
ReplyDeletePouring down rain here this morning! We will take it, going to bust that drought. Tell BG while he is up in the attic to put some screen on the new air vent and any others. We had to do that AFTER we got rid of the bats in the attic! Love your Fox Squirrel, privacy butterfly and all! Cracks me up!!!!
ReplyDeleteRain --- we could use some here. We had a little early in the week, just enough to water my little kitchen garden but not enough to make the creek sing its prettiest song, the rushing after a hard rain.
ReplyDeleteLoved your little squirrel. A few of them enjoy sharing the chicken feed with the baby girls. Crows usually show up as well.
My favorite day of the week? Well, I retired from teaching back in 2006, and when you're retired, every day is Saturday unless it's Sunday!
Like you Cheryl, I am so thankful for each day that I able to awake and enjoy God's beautiful nature, I am so blessed that as I work outside I am serenaded by so many birds.
ReplyDeleteYour thoughts about hoping to get projects completed with the warming of weather has been mine too, my list seems to be always growing. Good luck with your projects, may the temps.be cool enough for completion.
I did a double take with the squirrel photo, your photos are always so beautiful!
Enjoyed this so much.
Blessings,
Sue
You always have such pretty pictures to share.
ReplyDeleteClever way to G rate the squirrel...haha!
I too feel so blessed to have each day that the Lord blesses me with!!
Hope that you are able to cross a few things off of your "to-do" list, and have a happy and blessed week.

Well, it's Monday again by the time I get around to commenting. But, you are right . . . every day we have health is a great one!
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL at the cover-up. With all the years we had Mama Squirrel that had her babies in our tree, twice a year, I never got to see the dad!
ReplyDeleteI guess with me, right now, any day is a good day...prefer to stay home on weekends and do stuff through the week when everyone else is at work. However, next year when Lo goes to school all year long, I will probably become a big fan of weekends again!
