Hair styles

Have you noticed the outrageous hair styles that some older women are wearing? I especially have been amazed at some of the older women reporters, such as Candy Crowley on Cnn and also Hillary Clinton.

I don't know if they are trying to look young or what but they are much too old for the new long and straight hair styles that are fine on young women but ridiculous on middle aged and older women.Even though they may want to look in style and up to date, they need to remember their age.  There are hair styles much more suitable for older women, which they definitely are!

Mixed up Nights and Days

The house in the picture is across the street from me, sort of catty cornered. I sit right by the window on my couch a lot (too much!). So I see much of what goes on over there.

Most of the time during the day they have their yard lights on.  There are lights on each side of the door and one over the garage.  The lights burn most of the day and then at night when they should be on they usually aren't.  I think what happens is that they notice them on in the late afternoon and decide to turn them off.  Then they go away, a lot, and don't turn the lights on before they go.  Many times they are not
home before midnight so it is totally dark there until they get back home. They go to work in the mornings and do not turn the lights off, so they burn all day. 
I know it isn't any of my business but it really bugs me! I do not like the darkness that surrounds their house at night. As far as during the day it doesn't really bother me but I am sure it bothers their electric bill!

I am tempted to buy them an electric eye for their lights for a Christmas gift (just kidding).

Poor Bunnies

My neice just sent me a picture of  a nest  of bunnies she found in her yard. It looked as if maybe three or four were there. 

She is lucky she found them the way she did; Ford, my husband, found them with the lawn mower  and a couple of them died. We felt terrible but there was no way we could have known they were there!

There is this certain spot in my yard that is a little low and I have filled it in several times with new dirt but somehow the dirt seems to disappear before too long and it is low again. So it was this spot where the mama bunny chose to make her nest.  For was mowing along and suddenly he hit this low spot and the bunnies were there.  The mother was not there but the babies were.  Two of them were killed and the other one or two were still in the nest. I suppose the mother came back, we never knew. 

I am glad you did not experience that with your bunnies!
