So funny! Don't touch it, just let it do it's thing if it will make any noise at all in some time. Isn't there a little button on it, where you can choose if you want the chicken sound or just silence??<br /><br />Those daisies are gorgeous!!!! <br />And that Astilbe are beautiful too, I have some in my garden too, some in shade some have lots more sun but always doing great! And when they have grown a bit bigger, you dig them out,split them (they are easy to devide, and plant the parts again, it's the easy and cheap way to have some more of them. They look so great in a larger group.<br /><br />I would love to have some real rain(if possible in the evening and night,of course), our garden could do with it. <br />Okay, I will check for one or two recipee's for this evening's dinner and then slowly get into gear for a quick grocerie shopping.<br />Have a wonderful day, sending a hug to you, oh and a cuddle for Pogo!<br />Kyrasmiekeltjehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16375937338027468675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1836896508271015450.post-13171860283393779412015-06-15T14:10:28.505-04:002015-06-15T14:10:28.505-04:00I am singing a different toon here ... we have had...I am singing a different toon here ... we have had weeks of rain and this week is no different. We will have flooding on the lake soon and I have to tell you the grass grows faster than I can cut it. I never thought I would say it, but a little drought would be nice about now. Mint has already harvested cabage and lettuce from her garden and she has peppers on her plants already, Everything will be eaten by mid summer and we will have to start all over ... and we are getting a little help from our little groundhog who I have seen a lot of lately. <br /><br />I bet if you opened up your chicky clock and put a new battery in it, he would start cock a doodle doing again. Sounds like he is willing, just needs some energy. I have a clock on my desk that doesn't say anything (thankfully) but has been running forever. Every once in awhile it gets a little behind time, but then all of a sudden it is fine again. I am thinking maybe my Fh is sneaking into the picture and either changing the battery or resetting the time when I am not looking. He got this clock when he was still working which is well over 20 years agao. Hmmm, don't think they make things to last anymore, there is not profit in that :(<br /><br />Izzi is depressed, she can't play or run or jump or twist, she can only walk. And, with it raining everyday, she can't do much of that. She is getting sluggish and I have to coax her into her walks. But it is a must do so she can rebuild her muscles in that leg. This is an event I hope I never have to deal with again ... and I am guessing that Izzi would second that motion. <br /><br />I am still struggling with my new camera what little bit I can get out to use it with all of the rain. I have to use the screen and I am not good at locating objects at a distance. Practice makes perfect so they say so I just keep trying. You said something about turning something on or off so I could use the viewfinder, but I didn't write it down and now I can't find it ... what was that again? Well, I am reading a good book so I think I will go down and cozy up in a chair and listen to the rain and read. Sounds boring, doesn't it? Be well, Edna and hugs for the Pogo :)<br /><br />Andrea @ From the Sol Andrea @ From The Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00657271089899579261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1836896508271015450.post-22035531386334845782015-06-15T14:06:21.265-04:002015-06-15T14:06:21.265-04:00I always enjoyed the false spirea - they are so bu...I always enjoyed the false spirea - they are so bushy and pretty.<br />The clock sounds like a hoot - great story that gave me a chuckle.The Queen Jesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03613469797513739495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1836896508271015450.post-38367985307716000982015-06-15T11:09:05.581-04:002015-06-15T11:09:05.581-04:00I don't think I'd check the batteries befo...I don't think I'd check the batteries before the clock finished it's final croak either but wen it finally does die I'd find out the brand of batteries and never buy anything but thet brand for all of my things that need batteries! <br /><br />The African Daisy if just gorgeous, breathtakingly gorgeous!<br /><br />We have a rainy week ahead of us. I think it'll either be a week of scrapbooking or a week of naps fro me! :)<br /><br />Hugs, NaniNanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06376476093305279684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1836896508271015450.post-62496396776784387492015-06-15T09:46:22.852-04:002015-06-15T09:46:22.852-04:00Edna,
I bet that little clock would still crow IF...Edna,<br /> I bet that little clock would still crow IF you put in new batteries lol. hahaha! Too funny. I know how it can get on your nerves tho. My mother in law had one that chirped different bird sounds every hour on the hour and made some kind of little peep at the half hour. I wanted to throw it out the door and so did many others, but of course she would not hear of that. I haven't thought of that clock in many years. I bet that it is still hanging on the wall above the dining room table as my ex husband inherited the house and he never threw anything away!<br /><br /> All of your flowers are just lovely and I do hope that the new ones will take hold and bloom. I particularly love the blue and white daisies... Very unusual and beautiful. <br /><br /> Going to run over and update my blog while I can. My daughter Laurie is coming over and we are going to grocery shop! She and the rug rats will be here probably in the next hour or so. As for me... I cant wait to see the kids. I might spend time with them and let her grocery shop! You have a great day! Hugs, BethAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16152429411570034442noreply@blogger.com
