Hi Folks,
I hope everyone is doing well. It is Friday at work and I have 3 hours and 35 more hours before I am free for a well deserved long weekend. It’s a holiday here in MA but not in the rest of the country I guess, they call it Patriot’s day and the Boston Marathon will also be on Monday. I do not care what they call it I am just glad I do not have to come to work.
Let me tell you about my Easter I was having a perfectly nice day I stayed home while Dave went to visit his family (just was not up to going this year, but that is another issue I will not get into). Any how I decided since it was so beautiful out I would do laundry, do my floors and general cleaning and sit out on the deck to enjoy the day. So I am sitting on the deck taking a break and I look in the yard and I see this dog, so I thought it was a dog boy was I wrong! I went down to the yard to get a better look since I did not have my glasses on….and then I almost crapped my pants it was a Coyote! The poor thing was hurt I think he must of got hit by a car be cause he was falling over while he was running away from me. He went next door and the neighbors Duck was out (he is a huge duck as big as a swan and he runs around the yard). I started yelling for the guy to come get his duck because I was not sure what would happen. The Coyote just went down and layed down under some brush next to his fence. We went over and I looked into his eyes, I could tell he was not rabid just hurt, I was just about crying. I called the Animal rescue league and they said they could not help since he was a wild animal and told me to call the police. The police came and they looked at him (he had since moved to my back yard behind the tree’s). The mean cop said oh we cant help him but I could shoot him if he is rabid, then his dumb cop buddies pulled up and they were laughing saying oh gee thought I would get to take the shot gun out! They said they would watch for him so if he crossed the street he would not get hit…..I was ya right you jerk’s will probably try to hit him yourself. I know coyote’s are dangerous in neighborhoods but because of the new train that was put in I think of the wild life in my neighborhood lost there homes. I was able to get close to him to get some pictures check it out he is beautiful. I was sad for the rest of the day, he was gone the next day.
I have been seeing quite a bit of wild animals lately I mentioned last week we have the ground hog at work out back and yesterday I was sitting out on the bench at work and a wild turkey was running around. Here are the pictures of the ground hog.
Look he is near the fence.
Dave went to Texas on business Monday through Wednesday he liked it and brought me back this nice pink T-shirt that says Dallas on it. The man travels so much I have souvenirs from everywhere! While he was gone my birdbath/solar light was delivered from LTD Commodities. Two hours later I had it put together the directions where backwards and after much cursing and undoing screws and redoing them I got it together here it is along with some pictures of my new flag, wind chimes, solar lights, flowers, fishes, and the beach theme craft I put on the back of my toilet bowl. Note these may be out of order.
The fishes in the pond are looking for food
I got this new humming bird flag
Another wind chime I made the strand of beads I hung it from to look sparkly
Here is the bird feeder, it lights up at night, this weekend I will start planting bulbs around it and get some flowers in the ground.
The spring flowers are finally blooming
This is the craft I made on the toilet, Its a plate with 2 candles, craft sand, sea shells and stones
I got this Mexican Shell from the craft store and put some glass beads in it for the vanity.
Finally I bought myself a new Invicta watch since I broke my last one when I moved, I got a great deal on EBay its new, it goes for $215 but I got it for $109 what a deal!
This weekend is suppose to be warm Saturday so I have plans of just gardening and hopefully cooking out, I was thinking Shish-Ka-Bobs on the grill….mmmmm
Well that is about it I hope everyone has a nice weekend!

Now help me out here did you make the craft on the toilet or did you make it for the toilet?
Nice pics of the coyote,he probably got hit by a car and is looking for a place to mend.
All of your yard ornaments look great!
Enjoy your weekend.
Great pics thanks for sharing!
Wow, a coyote that is amazing. My hubby says he sees them all the time around here. I found the hind leg of a rabbit in our yard the other day and my hubby said a coyote probably got it. I won't let my little 9 lb. dog Bambi in the front yard alone. I can see the ground hog. He is a cutie. I remember LTD commodities. I didn't even know they were still around. I love that solar light. We bought only one last year to see how it would look and when we went back to get more the price was higher so we said we would wait until they came down again. Our back porch deck looks bad. We need to replace tons of boards. The bird feeder is great. I can't wait to see it lite up. That craft on your toilet is so me. My downstairs bathroom is all seashells. I will take a picture one day and put it on my blog. What a beautiful watch. I only have 2 watches and I wear the one my brother in law gave me and it is Pooh Bear. I only wear one when I am going to a party. We are not starting our garden for another couple of weeks. We have a few more weeks of some lows in the 30's. We start planting the weekend of Mother's Day. I can't wait. I know we are going to try a few new vegetables. I have never made Shish-Ka-Bobs. They sound yummy. Sorry this is so long. Have a great week. Hugs
Wow, a lot in this wonderful post! Awww, so sad about the Coyote! Love the bird chimes bath. That is soooo neat. Pictures say a whole heck of a lot and easier to understand. Thanks so much for sharing.
Blessings.
