Happy Straw Hat Day

Happy Straw Hat Day to effurryone!

Today is our annual National Straw Hat Day!

This is the traditional day of the spring season that hooman men officially put away their winter felt hats and put on their new straw hats. So all of us kitties and woofies and buns and donkeys and lizzies etc. will do the same!

We kitties — and woofies and critters — all get out our summer hats and model them. Come on all the donkeys and lizzies and buns, we want to see yours straw hats, too! ~KC

We are celebrating too!   

Thanks Ann of Zoolatry for the graphic! 

 WE gave Mom a great Mother's day gift!

You guessed it!  Pictures of us!

Mom here:  I went to Care Now and had the finger  x-rayed.  They could not see a break si think it is all tendons injuries.  They have referred me to a hand specialist.

Thankful Thursday

We are thankful that Mom has all nine fingers and two thumbs and the all seem to work, sort of.

 See the white bay by my feet?  That is that moves the hoop on her Embroidery machine.  It is setting in a hole in her table.  That arm moves almost all the way to the end  of the table.  On the machine there is a button to 'park' or move the arm all the way over (toward me).  Mom pushed the button, put her hand on the table (fingers were over the edge of the hole) and goted her hand runed over!  She cried and Dad jumped up to see what dumb thing she had done now.  Her middle finger on her left hand is slightly bent to the left. If she pushes it back straight, it makes clicking  and crunchie noises!  ewwwwe!

Mom says it does not hurt like a bad headache or a toothache.  It throbs  but it still works and bends where it should. There are a couple of red marks on it but no great bruising. 

No, she did not go to the clinic. She does not think they can do any thing for it.  It will just be a little off sided and look like her Mom's!

Easy Sunday evening together

Reading the Sunday paper

More flowers!

Mom has even more flowers for today

 This is Milk Vetch.  True vetch looks like this but smells like grape Kool-Aid!

 

Wheat

 These two are Indian Blanket. There are a lot of these in the area. 

These two are Thistle. Some of these were 5 feet tall! 

 False Dandelion.  These are six inches or more tall unlike other Dandelion that is close to the ground.

 Indian Paint Brush

 This looks like Baby's Breath,  but I think it is Stick Tight.  It makes tiny burrs that are impossible to get out of pet hair!

  Not sure the name of this one.  It looks like a plant My Grandmother called Pink Eye Bush!

 Pepper Grass.  The  'leaves' look like pepper seeds.  It is an eatable plant and has a pepper taste.

Not sure what these two are. Small blue flowers that grow up the stem.

 Oats.There are a lot of these.  Someone had fun sowing their wild oats!

Another one I do not have a name for.

Believe it or not, there are more.  I will save some for tomorrow and then there are critters!
