Sunday Stuff & Pic of Buddy, Flowers

July 12, 2009 by Darlene


Morning all! I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. Mine has been ok other than a pestering headache again. Today is looking like we might actually have a nice day so I hope we will so I can sit outside and enjoy it for a while. Last week was a crazy week in weather here – rainy, cloudy, gloomy and tornadoey. Not nice! Above is a pic of my favorite flowers. Don’t mind our sun scorched lawn, it’s better now that we’ve got a ton of rain but I took this last week before the rain started. When you would walk on it, it would crackle. So, while I’m not fond of the rain we really needed it.

I have some serious catching up to do reading blogs so if you haven’t seen any comments from me, that’s why. Not sure if I’ll catch up today or tomorrow – haven’t decided yet, need a shower first. I do have to take some of the clothes I bought for my birthday back – on further inspection I’m not liking them so much. lol.

I’ve got a review to write for tomorrow on a book called Two Years, No Rain by Shawn Klomparens which I totally enjoyed. I started Holly’s Inbox yesterday – big mistake! – I haven’t been able to put it down! I love it!

So, that’s it for today and I thought I’d leave you with a pic of where Buddy likes to lay when I’m trying to do office work and catch up on blogging stuff. Don’t mind my makeupless self though – just look how cute he is.


So, what’s everyone up to today? I hope whatever it is, you are totally enjoying it! Have a great day everybody!

    Love the flowers and love Buddy! My goal today is to get myself and the kids ready for our 2 week trip to Indiana…we are leaving tomorrow. Laundry is at the top of the list, and below that is making up some yummy food for my husband to eat while we are gone. Good chores for audio listening! Have a wonderful Sunday…hope the headache goes away!

    My cat George sits exactly the same as Buddy when I am trying to work on my PC. Love the flowers they are just beautiful. I am having a catch up day, as we were in London yesterday and I never got anything done.

    Milou likes to sit in the chair with me when I'm on the computer. I'm glad to see Two Years, No Rain is good – I just started it because I'm touring it on Friday.

    Hi Dar! Your flowers are beautiful 🙂

    I'm also trying to do some catching up and visiting my blog friends to see what they have been up to.
    Enjoy your Sunday.
    You and Buddy look cozy!
    Belly rubs to Buddy from me :O)

    Happy birthday Dar, sorry I am late.

    I am joining you with the headache, it has been on and of for over a week.

    I can see how much you love Buddy, I totally understand the feeling.

    Awww, Buddy is too cute. It is such a comfort to have them beside you, isn't it? Daisy has to be in here with my while I am on the computer as well.
    I hope you enjoy your Sunday, and that your headache goes away. I am suffering a sinus infection at the moment, so I can relate. 🙂

    I like this personal, newsy post! Great pictures of the flowers and buddy!

    I've been sitting on the porch reading. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

    I'm so glad to hear you love Holly's Inbox! That was one book I couldn't put down. For a big book, I read it very quickly.

    I hope that nasty headache is gone, Dar. Were you able to sit outside like you wanted to?

    I am looking forward to reading Holly's Inbox. I am glad you are enjoying it so far.

    Enjoy the week!

    Happy Sunday Dar:) I love your dog and that's such a sweet picture of the two of you. Don't worry,I feel the same way about blog-catch-up these days! Talk to you soon!

    Too cute! I could never do that with my big guy. Of course I could probably cuddle with him if I sat on the floor now. He's exhausted after an exciting afternoon of visitors 🙂

    Hi Dar, I hope you got a chance to relax along with all the catching up. Makeup? You don't need it, you're a beautiful woman on the outside as well as the inside. Have a great week and I hope you feel better.

  19. Toni says

    July 12, 2009 at 11:05 pm

    What a great post Dar.. You look fabulous! 🙂 Love love the Petunias.

    I am jealous that you are reading Holly's Inbox. When I get out from under my piles… I really want to read it.

    Dex has no acceptance of computer time yet.. he comes up.. and puts his mouth on my hand.. bites down and pulls it off the keyboard. Just like a 2 year old.

    Happy Monday.

    Those flowers are gorgeous and Buddy is a sweetie!! I'm glad that you finally got some rain though just glad that you didn't experience any tornadoes!!! I'm so sorry that you're experiencing headaches!!!! I'm going to be reading 2 years no rain for a blog stop on the 27th, nice to hear that you enjoyed it too!!
    Take care of yourself!!

    Love the pics, Dar. Hope you got rid of the headache. We traveled out of town to a wedding yesterday. Stayed overnight and will be glad to sleep in my own bed tonight!

    I haven't had much time to read lately so I've been reading one book for almost a week!

    I think you and Buddy look beautiful together – who needs make-up!

    And I know what you mean about crackly grass, our yard looked a mess until the rain came. We spread grass seed during a rainstorm last week and it looks much nicer now.

    Gorgeous flowers and another adorable pic of Buddy!! I love that dog 🙂

    I had a good reading day, finishing Eyes Like Stars (awesome) and got in an accidental 3-hour nap 😀

    Happy Sunday! (What's left of it, anyway)

    I sure hope your headache went away. Do try and get some rest and as tempting as it is, stay off the computer until it passes. Nothing is worse than web surfing with a headache.

    Buddy is too cute! And you look pretty without makeup!

    My pup likes to lick my toes while I play with my computer. Then he just sits there and do nothing. Hehe…

    pretty flowers and yes he is soooo cute. Funny how animals like to get right in the way when we are trying to work on computer. Our kitties do the same thing.

    Love the flowers! They're beautiful!

    Hope you have a great weekend, Dar!

    Great picture of you and Buddy! Growing up I had black miniature poodles, so I've always loved little black dogs. The flowers are beautiful, too…hope your headache didn't last too long.

  36. Luanne says

    July 15, 2009 at 12:35 am

    Love it when you post Buddy pics! Your flowers are so pretty too. I couldn't put down Holly's Inbox either!

  37. Book Bird Dog says

    July 16, 2009 at 4:43 pm

    Your pictures of Buddy and the flowers reminds me of my dog Harvey who left us a year ago. Harvey loved flowers, sniffing them that is. Sigh!

    Thanks everyone for commenting on last week's Sunday post and pic of Buddy and I. I thought I was caught up on comments but I see again I'm a week behind. Ugggggggggggggggggggh!

    Toni, those flowers are called Wave Petunias. It's the first time we've planted them. Now they are overflowing the baskets. I'll have to take another pic soon.

    Thanks for sharing part of your Sunday with me everyone!

    Two things my dear.

    1. I LOVE that picture of you and Buddy. While you look a little sad, I think I'm just going to pretend that you are being contemplative. 🙂

    2. Your flowers are gorgeous. I miss flowers. We're too hot and so we get them for short periods of time. I've never seen more beautiful flowers than up in Canada (I'm partial since my grandpa and uncles are landscapers and do beautiful gardens).
