Coopville Diaries - Episode 4

Due to last week's episode not being aired this episode will be extra long.

As you all know, last week was a holiday week.

This seemed to throw the girls and Rod into a tizzy.

They were all running around like........(dare I say it).........like.......chickens with their heads cut off!


Acting all crazy!

No....Natasha.....this is not where you lay your eggs!


Ever since I named her Natasha she thinks she's all mysterious.....like a Russian spy or something.

Natasha......leaving your eggs in the shop does not make you mysterious.......just dirty.


And one day last week I was walking to the coop to feed them and Rod Stewart attacked me!!

Well.....to be honest....I didn't know they were all following behind me and Rod had actually gotten right in front

of me and I accidentally kicked him.

It was really funny because he puffed up like a cotton ball (I guess I embarrassed him in front of the girls) and he jumped on me like white on rice.

It didn't hurt and I was mad at him for doing it but I couldn't do anything but laugh because he looked so funny.

But now......I feel he is stalking me.


I can see you Rod Stewart!


Don't even think about it!

Even the wild Tom cat that comes to visit was all paranoid!


So I said....that's enough!

Tomorrow we will have a spa day!


The girls thought this was a fabulous idea and settled right in.


Oh...they preened and napped.....


And enjoyed having a girl day....


I think they gossiped a little....

and Rod.......being a typical male.....thought the spa was the stupidest idea....

he paced back and forth...muttering...."how long does it take to fix your feathers?"


But it totally did the trick because the girls seemed relaxed and happy and back to normal!


Rod was so happy the girls were finished at the spa he crowed

"spa day is overrrr....rrr...rrr...rrr...rrrrrrrrrrrrrr."


But ....on the other hand.....I think he is still a little miffed at me.....:)


And that concludes another episode of

Dog on a Leash..........sheesh!

A dog on a leash equals no fun.....none....nope.....I'm telling you it's ruff! 
(heehee...ruff....get it....the dog...ruff...you know how he barks...ruff....ok sorry about that...moving on....)

We live outside the city limits and normally our dogs do not have to be on a leash but Breesy...oh she is a bad one.

She will run off and not stop until she is miles and miles from home.....sometimes on the other side of town.

Thank goodness we had collars made that has our name and phone number on them.

But she has that figured out.......she runs all day until she gets tired and then she gets on someone's porch and  

rings the doorbell. (you didn't know she could do that...did you?)

They come to the door and she says "could you call my mom and dad....the number is on my collar...yea...right there.  And while we are waited for them have you got anything to eat?"

Smart dog....I tell ya.

This has happened at least 3 times!

So now if she leaves her pen she has to be on a leash.


And then I get to feeling bad because she is cooped up all the time so I decide to take her for a walk to the creek.

I realize this is not a walking leash...this is the leash that we let her outside on sometimes...and there lies the problem.

The leash.....oh the leash......is a nightmare!

I go on one side of the tree......she goes on the other.

She tramps through my flowerbeds and then I have to tramp through the flower bed.

Next up we go through the mud hole......haha... I can go around the mud hole but somehow she manages to flip the leash up and gets me wet!

And Baby Kitty walked with us and he was chasing the leash the entire time.

What about  the squatting and peeing and pooping............on the leash?...:(
(aren't you glad I don't have a photo of that)

It snags on every........single............little........thing.....



And the thing I hate the most.......

After she has gone left, then jumped to the right, ran behind you, back left, turns around ... you are desperately trying to untangle yourself and

she hears a dog barking and takes off like a Blue Angel jet...........

spinning you around and giving you a rope burn everywhere that she has managed to wrap the leash around you.

These are my days.....this perfectly describes how I do everything......

set out on a mission with all the wrong tools.....

do it anyway....

get wet, poop hands and rope burn....

yep.....

that's me...

in a nutshell...

where the nuts belong....:))))

--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Oh...and by the way.....I don't really know how to do this but I set up a Facebook page so people can
share their Personal Testimony.  That is the name of the page.  But I'm not sure if I need to do anything else is you want to share on it.  Maybe someone can let me know.  Check it out....if you can...:)

Ramblings on a Rainy Day

It's another rainy day.....gives me time to think.....that should scare you all.

Here are some things I've been thinking about....

*  My thighs have not NOT rubbed together since..........never......I was a chubby baby.

*  I blame Pinterest for this basket of lint.......it is to be used for fire starters...pinned on homesteading or camping?....you have to add melted candles and put it in egg cartons....but I haven't finished this project along with 1,999 others.  



*  I've been saving it for months now......because that's how I do projects.....slow or never....and yes...I'm sure it's a fire hazard.

*  I rearranged the lint 5 times before I took the photo.....again I blame Pinterest....photography board.

*  I don't know why I'm making fire starters.....my thighs would probably work.

*  I don't like how facebook has turned into Pinterest.

*  I want to be nosy and see what kind of mess you have made of your life (like I have).... not the latest recipe.

*  Why can't I throw things away?

*  And when my husband and I go for a day drive and we stop by the gas station and he asks me what I want....why do I think I need enough snacks to last a week in case we get stranded....we don't live in the mountains.....or the desert.....or without communication.

*  I desperately crave to be organized.......I buy all kinds of organizing stuff......and promptly lose it.

*  I have 1000 diaries and calenders with one entry in them.

*  I own a machete.......why?.....my husband doesn't know.....zombie attack?



*  I'm really trying hard to let my hair grow out....just so I can put it in a ponytail.....which makes it look short?????

*  Why don't they make caulk black.....so I could just say I bought it that color.

*  I use 409 or Lysol cleaner to clean my garden feet....not my shoes.....my feet.....doesn't everyone?....oh really?...sorry....tmi

*  It makes me sad that the year in the movie "Back to the future" is 2015 and we are not even close to flying cars.

*  Does Sheryl Crow have a fountain of youth serum?

*  I do not like mega mansions......who needs that much space to live in?.....give more to charity...wasteful!

*  I love, love to get the bathing suit edition of People magazine, or Star.  Even movie stars don't really look great in a bikini...........I would say only 1% of the population really has a perfect figure.  Yea!!!!

*  My other vice......all the Real Housewives shows....my husband hates for me to watch them.   They all may be beautiful but they are so vain that it ruins their personality....therefore making me feel good about myself...which.........................makes me vain?....uh oh....

*  I still cringe inside when another adult calls me Mrs. Lisa.....at first I think why? and then I realize that they are 20 and I.............................am not...:(

*  Due to rainy weather and the 4th of July, Coopville Diaries will not be shown this week....tune in next week to see what kind of sparks (ha.ha...4th of July pun) Rod Stewart has created now!



And this concludes my rambling on a rainy day.....:)

Another Great Holiday!

So another holiday has come and gone.....

Sambo loved my new Fourth of July tray that I found very, very cheap at the Salvation Army.


and she said "don't even think about moving this"

We were invited to a friends camp on the river....

and in spite of looming dark clouds we did get in some boat time....





The kids had a great time and this next photo was my best action shot of the day.


I just love this one...:)

Not so much this next one...


I'm currently in the market for fat friends....why oh why....are all of mine skinny?


He stopped by...he wanted to know if we were over our weight limit...and he was looking right at me....

no....just kidding....he was just a friend.....but that is how a fat girl's mind thinks...


Their dog Bailey loves boat rides!


So glad my hubby was able to enjoy a day off from work.

We had a great time with great friends!

So grateful to live in this great country!


Home of the brave!

Land of the free!

Today is another wet and rainy day.

My Indian name today would be:

She who eats and sleeps too much!...:)

I have loved drinking my coffee this morning and catching up with all of my blogging friends.

It's one of my favorite things to do!

Gotta go now.....it's almost nap time...........again...:)

Have a great day!

Goldfish Debacle!

The comments:

Oldest Son: "wow, what dummy opened this?"

College Kid:  "who doesn't know how to open a box right?"

Hubby:  "whoever opened this shouldn't be allowed to open anything else."


Don't mess with a girl when she is having goldfish withdrawals!

Sorry.......box wouldn't cooperate...:)

Bloglovin

Well I'm so not good with this stuff......I don't like change.

So I really hope I am making the right changes with Bloglovin.

I hope the button on the sidebar works!

I really hope I don't lose any of you.....I enjoy your comments and reading all of your blogs.

Maybe I will get better at this technical stuff.

I just like the writing and photo stuff....:)))

Have a great weekend my friends!
