Home for the week ? Post pictures!

Well I kinda figured that I was going to end up with an involuntary week off from work. The boss had nothing that fit into my schedule for the week, and the weather was closing in, so I ended up taking some paid time off and staying home this week. I have my physical on Friday and that is all I have going on now for the rest of the week.

Today was a nice day. After I took care of the office and all that, I decided to go out for a while. I went to visit a good friend who is down on his luck. He lost his job, got sick, a beloved pet passed away on Valentines day, and is generally in a funk. I was happy to go visit and try to cheer him up for a while. I have several friends that are not in the best of places right now, but that will change. Nothing in this world stays constant, and like all things, these too, shall pass

Now on to the show. As a response to my friend Mal, I thought I would post some pictures of our critters here at the house. First we have my little squirrel who comes every day to eat. He is so tame and sweet.


Next are my Turkeys. These fellas come twice a day and eat the seed out front on a tight schedule. We have a group of about 50 of them that hang close to the house most of the time. They are creepy and at the same time quite fun to watch. They are getting more tame by the day. In the background is my Jeep. They keep a close eye on that. It looks threatening to them.


Next are the deer. We have quite the herd here since there is no hunting allowed anywhere near my house. We love watching them. They come to eat my cedar trees and the remnants of the seed we put out of the birds.


And finally for today, the possum. Mal, we don't have adorable possums here, we have rat looking possums. These guys are not nice, and they are not something to mess with. They have huge teeth and claws. I have seen the damage these fellas can do, and it isn't pretty. This is a Flickr pic, since I won't get close enough to one of ours to take its picture. Ours look less cute than this fella here. I still love em though.


So there you go. I will be messing about with a photo blog later in the week to make the whole picture thing more interesting. For now, I am going to go chase after the Mrs, who just walked by wearing pretty much nothing and grinning at me from ear to ear while she did it.

Later!
