My sad peach tree. Its my favorite tree in my whole yard, I love this guy but he isn't doing well. Due to old age and a stupid borer. He's a little sparse on the blooms this year.

AJ and his two little solar flower things. I was outside he was, obviously, in his room.

So for some reason my camera and computer and youtube aren't compatible. I don't know why, but I can't show you guys the videos I took today of Ellie. BOO! Stupid computer/camera/youtube combo.
 
I´m just loving seeing Ellie pictures, she has such a lovely face. I love the one of her face just coming out of the cabinet. That picture of your cat is fantastic, I love the green clover background and you couldn´t have got a better picture, looks like a pose, such a lovely face.

I love tulips, it reminds me of when I lived with my mom and dad, we always had tulips in the garden in the spring and daffodils.

AJ is such a cutie, he´s got a great smile.
 
Yes, great pictures! I loved all the photos especially the one of Ellie eating that piece of, cilantro? I loved the picture of your cat sitting in the clovers. You do have a lot of them growing there.

The tulip is beautiful. Some purple flowers are starting to sprout here, they are beautiful. I should post a picture of them on my blog.

And the peach tree is so pretty in bloom. I can't wait until ours start to bloom. AJ is pretty cute with that little smile.
 
Thanks Chris. He was making crazy faces when I was trying to get him to smile. So he smiled crooked! ahaha. He's so silly.
AND he has a fever. I've noticed today that he's been acting a little strange. Normally he's all over the place and taking all kinds of stuff out. But today he's been sitting in the floor on the rug playing with a few toys that were already there. Then he fell asleep in the floor for a few minutes. He's just acting so quiet and strange. He came up to the gate in the kitchen and asked for some juice and he looked really...off.
So I took his temp and its at 100.3! AHH! What am I going to do now?! We're leaving for Pittsburgh TOMORROW! Why do they all fall apart right before we were supposed to leave for somewhere?! Jeez.

Elise, my whole yard is nothing put clovers and some random crab grass. hahah. Makes for a terribly ugly yard, but it IS always green. But it makes for happy animals because the rabbit loves clover and the chickens love clovers too!

Yeah peach blossoms and cherry blossoms are similar in appearance. My peach tree is old old and big. Its right to the left of the driveway and its my most favorite tree. It doesn't make peaches but when its fully leaved, its such a nice tree. I just love it.

I hope my son isn't getting sick. I kind of don't know what to do now, do I still go to Pittsburgh or stay home with him? We've never been in this position before. UGH!
 
Nope, nothing other than a fever and being a little sluggish. No cough or anything. He was fine yesterday but not today. I wonder what happened? Hmmm...I guess I'll just have to play it by ear. We pick up our rental car in the morning at 7:30 and he still has a fever, or at least a greater fever OR has developed more symptoms then he and I probably won't be going to Pittsburgh.
I just put him down for a nap and he didn't even fight me! I covered him up and put his bear on him and he just stayed like that! I KNOW something is definitely off now! I hope that it passes by tomorrow though. I don't necessarily want to go to Pittsburgh, but I know my grandparent in-laws want to see AJ and my hub.

Good lord, its been raining ALL day long. Its SO cold out there and all my chickens are way unhappy about it. I think that Mother Nature missed the letter about it being spring time, because 40* doesn't seem like spring to me. She obviously isn't reading her mail.
 
Poor AJ, hope he feels better tomorrow but kids are more resilient that adults so he may be fine. Are you excited about going to Pittsburgh, quite a trip, I always like to go away even if it´s not far. I haven´t been anywhere for ages well apart from close by. I´m even looking forward to going down to Gibraltar again when my mom and sister are over just for a change of scenery.

Peach blossom is so pretty, looks like almond blossom as well, but not sure if the colour´s slightly different. I remember when we used to come into Malaga years ago and all the trees were in blossom and I loved seeing all that color.
 
I enjoyed all of the pictures. Ellie looks extremely healthy with such a shiny coat. AJ is just too cute! I am sorry to hear he is not feeling well, hopefully it will pass quickly and not get any worse. That's what we want is peach trees. There were some at the last place we lived and the peach preserves were delicious, the kids ask for it on toast as dessert. We are having similar weather here except it hasn't started raining yet it's just grey and cold. Blah, I want spring!
 
My poor tree is like 40 years old and on his last leg. Last year, he was so full and so beautiful. The WHOLE tree was covered in blossoms, not just the one part of it. But as I said, a borer got to him and has hurt my poor big baby. I go out there and tell him he's a beautiful tree and make sure all his limbs are intact! Yes, the tree is a boy, I see it as a male. haha. He doesn't have a name though.
BUT he doesn't make peaches, hasn't since we've been here. He has maybe made 2 and thats a stretch and they weren't "real" peaches, they were just pits with fur. I need to take some extra care of him this year, maybe I'll be able to bring him back. That is the only plant/tree I don't yell at.

I hope AJ feels better too. I kind of don't want to go to Pittsburgh, but I kind of really want to get the heck away from my house! hahah. Sometimes its really nice to take a break from your life and go stay in a hotel that you don't have to clean and have someone else actually cook for you. It will be nice to be able to possibly relax, but not really relax because I have to be SO nice to everyone and that is exhausting! hahah. How bad is that, I have a problem being nice to people for an extended period of time. I'm just not an overly nice person, I'm nice enough. But not sugar coated OR sweet. haahaha. I like sarcasm and when you're with old people, that stuff doesn't go far. Its like trying to be sarcastic with an asian person who wasn't born in america. LOL
And now I'm done. I have to get a few things together in the house still and I will be done. Stupid bathroom always needs cleaned! haha.
 
Well we leave in the morning. Its now 1 and I just got out of the shower and finished everything that I needed to do.
I put Ellie's x-pen up and she's trying desperately to get out of it. Its like half the kitchen but thats still not big enough. She is making me nuts. She's getting into everything and totally acting up right now! haha. I also had to run to walmart at like 11 because I was out of bag hay and because it rained all day today the hay in the barn was a little damp from the air being damp. Its about had it anyway and its almost reached is expiration date in my eyes and I didn't want her to eat it while I was gone. Because god knows, if something could go wrong while we're gone, it probably will and we'll come back to something bad. I really hope not.
I already warned my parents that the hen could die while we're gone and I'm okay with that, it would probably just be traumatic for them, LOL.

I couldn't put the tarp under the x-pen because the tarp is HUGE. I forgot that I got it for the chicken coop so it was a massive one. I tried to fold it and whatnot but it was all wonky and bunched in places. And I know Ellie, she would have chewed that thing to shreds and then died from tarp blockage. So hopefully she'll be a good girl and just got potty in the boxes like she's supposed to! YEAH RIGHT! haha.

Off to bed I go. I hope to leave the house tomorrow by 9. There is still some stuff we have to do before we go, but hopefully it won't take long. The rain today really hindered my plans for doing chicken stuff. So we'll get that done in the morning and ship off.
I'm going to take a bunch of pictures so everyone can see Pittsburgh, in case you've never been. Its a pretty cool city, I liked it when we went a few years ago. We're also going to the Carnegie Science Center on Saturday and I'm SUPER excited about that!
I think the hotel we're staying in has free wifi since its near the airport, so I'll bring the laptop for the down time at night we have.

Next time you guys hear from me, I'll be in the land of the Yanks, enjoying some wonderful pizza and filling my days in the company of old people!
 
Lol, I've done that too! It's really hard to get up walking again until that blood gets flowing.

Hopefully Ellie's going to be a good girl. Hope you have a good trip :)
 
Awh caught up on your blog! Your topics to avoid kind of made me laugh because those are the EXACT topics that set my boyfriend off and if you ask me, I am so naive about everything in my life, I could really care less. I mean really, in my eyes, there is absolutely nothing I could say or no difference I could make about any of those topics (not even Pocahontas, because the movies are made) so I just leave them alone lol.

I love the pictures you've got of Ellie and Lisa's comment "it's like she's saying she belongs in this world and you just live in it" pretty much sums it up LOL I think that's how all bunnies feel.

It's such a shame that you son is sick :( I hope he gets better quickly!

I also hope you have a wonderful trip and nothing goes wrong while you're gone because it sure sounds like you've done the work to prepare for things ahead of time as best as possible!
 
Have a safe trip and enjoy the change in life while you can! Hopefully you won't have to deal with snow while you're up there and everything will be fine when you get back.
 
Hey, you´ve done everything you can to make sure things go smoothly when you´re away. I just have a feeling Ellie will behave cos you´re not there and be a good lickle girl. Hope your hen is Ok, even I´m worrying about her now.

Poor AJ, hope he´s feeling better for your journey.

And I do hope you have a relaxing, enjoyable time together and with the family. Sometimes, old people can be pretty entertaining lol.
 
Oh my gosh just now catching up. Usually you post to quickly for me to catch it all without reading willy nilly. I was reading bits and pieces out loud to Omar and he's giving me the weird look. Had to laugh about yelling at the plants. He said how is it any different than yelling at Pepe or Roscoe (my fishes)

He really likes Ellie. He said if you die we could take her, she'd fit right in. She has a "Shya" vibe about her. I think it's the ears. Whatever that means.

Hope your trip got off the ground and you can have some relax time. Sorry it was so hectic up until leave day. Seems to be life. Let us know how it goes:biggrin2:
