Mystery plant, and other things.....

I think that i might have self-planted corn growing in my yard, in the rocks that surround the big maple tree. I know, i sound like a complete idiot...and i was going to pull this "weed", but it looked kind of like corn, and now it REALLY looks like corn. I am really HOPING it IS corn, because i want to eat it.
And speaking of gardening....have you read about the illegal-alien-reefer-growers in our National Parks? The latest one is in the Sequoias in California, and then today i read about some that are growing their crops in the midst of the grapevines in Washington state. You know, if they would just legalize it already, this would not be an issue!! Sheesh, at least legalize it for medicinal purposes already. Oh, i get so annoyed.

Are we all watching the Olympics? So exciting...we loves it. "We" being the dogs and I. It gives us a nice break from Dallas, The O.C., and The Gilmore Girls. I know the husband is reading this, and he is REALLY glad that he is not being forced to sit and muscle through these damn shows. But, i do think he would enjoy Dallas.

My neck is getting nice and healed up. I injured myself last friday. playing golf. yes, i am a total loser. Bear in mind though, this is the same loser who has been known to throw out her back knitting. yeah, i have a few spinal issues. This is what happens when you do not get your childhood scoliosis properly corrected. You get slighly off-centered shoulders, hips, and golf and knitting injuries. Anywhoot...been dosing myself on all the Army-prescribed Ibuprofen in the house, Tylenol PM, and a heating pad. It has been a REALLY fun week, and my dogs are not at all INSANE with boredom.

Last night a Chipmunk "mysteriously" died on the back deck. Seconds before death, Fred and Henry were standing together over him. Now, i am not going to say that they did the little fella in...but, i sure did not see any other critters around. I was a little upset....i like the chippermonkeys. I am pretty confident that Henry did NOT do it...he loves all animals, save for the archnemesis of all archnemesises, the SQUIRREL. Henry is pretty perfect...except for when he eats wild animal shit in the lower field.

Legalize pot....Tax it....and be done with it.

You can give Fred a pat on the head from me for doin in the little fella. Im sure he put it in his mouth and then let it go and look at its lifeless body just about the same time you saw them in the staring contest with the Chip or Dale.

Oh, Chipmunks are so cute! Good dogs though - you know they are just furry rodents. And at least he didn't eat it! g
