Topsy Turvy Thursday

Just some random thoughts for today. Pretend you joined me in the car for the addictive drive-through coffee shop. Couldn’t resist another Irish Blondie Breve. Hoping that’s a seasonal thing because I definitely don’t need to be doing that everytime I’m over near the shop.

My joke of the day: What do you call Spring Break when it happens prior to payday?

Answer: Spring Broke!

(Gather your rotten fruit, I’ll be here all year!)

Can you tell I typically work with preschool children? Where even jokes that make no sense are funny. Drive-through coffee shop might also explain the spring broke.

Would you like to see the photos that were supposed to accompany yesterday’s post?

Winter Wednesday Photos

The crocus that finally bloomed!

The purple flowers taking over more of the yard.

A pot of dirt just waiting to be filled with spring/summer flowers.

Finally, a random photo of one of my daffodils in a vase.

And now that we’re back here at the house, have fed the birds (or rather the squirrels), and drank our coffee, let’s go walk around the yard.

After This Morning’s Rain

Final picture for today:

Creepy little critter isn’t it?

I don’t like them. They’re rodents and they steal my bird seed. However, they’re also super smart and it is interesting to watch them figure out all the “squirrel proof” bird feeders. I do wonder if I started feeding the squirrels instead of the birds, would the birds eat the squirrel’s food? Hmmm…

Do you like squirrels?

  1. Great rain drops photo. I like squirrels but I now that they are a nuisance… they dig up garden bulbs and grab the bird food sadly. I used to clean at a friends house who home schooled her kids. The youngest always told rubbish jokes, they weren’t even funny. I used to try and give him a joke for each Friday, just because it’s the weekend. Enjoy the weekend, Cathy x

    1. Thank you! I was surprised the raindrops turned out so well. We have lots of squirrels around here because of all the oak trees. You’d think the acorns would be enough for them but no, why eat acorns when there is all that tasty birdseed around. Happy Friday!

  2. What wonderful images in your post! I loved squirrels when I was a kid. I used to call them by banging two nuts together.

    1. Thank you! How fun you could call your squirrels. Most of ours are too people shy but we do have one that thinks it’s a pet. They just make me upset when they eat all the birdseed and run off my birds. Hope you are having a great weekend so far!

  3. Ha! You crack me up Lady! He’s always telling me bad dad jokes. 😂
    I don’t know that that drink is – but it sounds wonderful. Yum!
    And I love seeing the daffs. The bright colors just makes me smile. Thanks for sharing so I can feel the joy of Spring. Getting more snow right now …big surprise. Lol
    I don’t mind squirrels, but they can’t get into my birdfeeder. 😆 They just take the scraps that fall to the deck.
    Blessings. xo

    1. That was a pretty bad joke. I like bad dad jokes though, they always make me laugh 🙂 The coffee drink is dangerously good: espresso with half and half or cream instead of milk, the Irish cream blondie contains Irish Cream, Vanilla, and Caramel. (I had to look up what a breve was the first time I ordered it). Definitely not an all the time thing. We got a dusting of snow overnight but it’s already gone from the front yard. Our squirrels always seem to figure out the bird feeders. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
