He thinks he is Farmer John (aka KoKoBean) - he is not - just saying - he is not.  This is our morning as I was "weeding" out the grass in the rocks in the backyard.  I do love the "surround" area of the patio that hosts all these beautiful river rocks. How old it is - don't have a clue - but..... grass grows thru the punctured lining and so we "weed" - 

Our pre-4th of July activities will hopefully be mostly indoors. It is hot and humid already out in the wild where this little renegade (sorry butt he would turn to face so you get the "butt view" - it is cute)

loves to "adventure in." I want to get out at some point and re-pot some of the flowers. The squirrels love to dig in the pots and just wreck havoc with the pansies. So time for me to play "Farmer Jane" and get my assistant "Farmer John" to leave my gardening gloves alone. Like he listens to me.  Stay cool, calm, and at be peace in our topsy turvy world. Happy Fourth of July America!

Good Afternoon from St Louis

Yes, it is me after a very long absence.  I've been debating if I should start this blog up again since I retired March 30, 2018 and relocated to St. Louis, Missouri, to be close to family.  And might I add, thank goodness for that especially in this time of Covid19.  In a sense I am relearning Blogger. Oh Boy, indeed, so be patient. I'm trying to link a photo and we will see what in heaven's name appears.

It worked.  This was the day I arrived here and my 1947 bungalow is behind. I love it! Who would have thought I would ever buy a single dwelling home after living in apartments and condos all of my adult life. Love my fenced in back yard and my flower garden.

Also added to the my family has been an incredible pup known as KokoBean, aka The Bean.  He arrived on my birthday in February 2019 and is growing into an awesome little guy.

He is my little mutt - Toy Poodle, Yorkie, and Maltese - and my constant companion to say the least. Right now I'm working on a project creating a "small book" after having a great online class with Seth Apter. I've done one and now doing another as a small gift.

Looking forward to getting to know all of you again and may also update the second blog which focuses on my Nest. Will have plenty photos to add over there. Stay safe and Hugs from a Distance.
