My Day....La mia giornata
before I can create, my day has a few up and downs....meaning walking up and down the hills! lol
this could be boring for some of you and interesting for others. I decided to take the camera along for the ride.
"La cucina"
7am
Cleaned the stove while waiting for the Espresso machine to worm up!
My Sweetest shadow ever is Benny.....
I finally figure out that he sits in my chair so I will remember to give him is cookie.
Feed the fishes.
For every animal that we rescue there is a story.
The story goes that we had 2 turtles and you feed them live gold fish. The turtles died and we were left we 3 gold fish and now there are 10!
Humming bird food? Check...
Roosty, out!
We rescued Roosty from been eaten by a raccoon. He is missing one eye because of it and has been rejected by the other chickens. He is my other shadow.
Out!!
Feed Roosty
What a beautiful day in Rainbow.....
Feed the rest of the chickens... down down
back up, up.....
finally I am in my little world........
what's the plan? too many things to finish, let see if I can do it in one day.
3 signs almost done
the plan is also to solder today
2 birdhouses are finished
priced the silver German glass glitter and mica
I think I know what to do with this piece of metal,I will share in another post.
price the signs
back outside...this is my favorite geranium. Have you ever seen something so beautiful?
My mamma always said that geraniums are
"the rose of the poor"
so grateful my dogs have a good life!
Laying in the sun all day long.
Time for some gardening, 5 mins max!
took the basil out of the bathtub and planted some chard...the parsley is doing really well too.
Lunch
1pm
tomato, cucumber and onion salad. Am I on a diet? no, it's just so Delizioso and fresh.
time to get the mail...this is my only exercise 300 feet
years ago my neighbor ask permission to put a sign on our tree, sure! Now...., the way I read/translate the meaning of the sign is: that the kids have some problems, they are slow? Just my translation from the Italian to English.
What about slow down, children are crossing? playing?
going up, up.....
My boys playground
a tire swing
and a eucalyptus tree
this eucalyptus tree split and fell in January of 1991,and the boys love to climb on.
up the hill... more exercise?lol
back in the workshop...starting to solder
almost forgot, I need another caffe'
birdhouse ready
beautiful Rainbow, California!
time to think of dinner....
and here he is again,
time for bed Roosty.
La Fine = The End
my day
Ciao for now

Just got home from drinks with a friend in Old Towne Seal Beach. I LOVE the photos, I want to come visit. I like that your dogs are such different sizes and you live in "wide open spaces". How awesome is that? I own the "square" my house sits on. Not nearly as exciting! Thanks for the pix's Rita, loved them all!
ReplyDeleteTake care, Sue
Wow, Rita, you do a ton in one day! Loved seeing your day through the camera.
