Bunny Sunday

Today is definitely a good day to lounge around...
It's HOT out. And humid. One of those days you just don't feel like doing much at all.Except hunker down and conserve energy.Sundays were made for being lazy. These bunnies have it down to a science! Much to be learned from bunnies....

(Oh, and I do need to add ~ these pics were not taken today. These spoiled bunnies are inside when the weather is too hot or too cold. They get to enjoy the outdoor bunny casa when the weather cooperates.)

Knock Knock

He's Baaaaaaaack.....
He's no dummy, I think he likes to hang out on the screen and get the benefit of the AC.

Larry. Izzy. Buddy. You guys gave me lots of good names for this guy -- and gave me a few good laughs, too! I use them all interchangeably. Oh, and then there's Lizard Minnelli, Thin Lizzy, Lizard Skynyrd...

Thing is, he doesn't even come when I call his name! Some lizards are just hard to train.

PEACE, LOVE AND HORSES

Thanks to The Buzz for featuring my Peace, Love and Horses denim lapis bracelet in an Etsy treasury (top left pic)...

Click here to go directly to the treasury for a closer look at all of these denim themed items.

This is one of my favorite designs. The pewter heart, peace sign and double horseshoe links are handcrafted by an artist in Pennsylvania.
I'm putting this bracelet on sale this week only for 20% off the price in my Etsy shop. If you're interested, send me an e-mail (link at the top left) and I'll send you an invoice for the adjusted price.

Wishing you a peace, love and horse filled week!

Bunny Sunday

Our bunnies are beyond spoiled. In addition to daily greens (parsley, cilantro, spinach, basil, etc.) they get treats on a regular basis. They love fruit and will come running and begging for their favorites --strawberries, bananas and apples.

I shared a tangerine with them one day. It was hilarious! And messy...

Sandie looks a little surprised by the juicy, tangy treat... You know that sensation you get when you eat something sour...like your saliva glands are working overtime? This is what Digger looks like here...

Messy bunny close up -- tangerine juice overflow...
As much as these bunnies love treats, we really do only give them in moderation! Good bunny moms know "too much of a good thing" is not good at all...

Mind Over Matter

It is HOT here in the desert. When the forecast for the week looks like this: 101, 103, 102, 101, 100....you know you are in trouble... I'm usually ok UNTIL it reaches 100. High 90s, no problem. When it gets over 100 I start to get a little tired of the heat.

I found this picture of our one day of snow in 2009:

Ahhh..... crisp and cool. Can you see me in the middle of this, making a snow angel, in my shorts and tank top?

I feel better already!

Cowgirl Wisdom

And I'm sure they understood her and talked right back!

My mornings sound like this as I walk out to the barn...

"Hi guys! How's everyone doing today?" (Hrrr hrrrr... nicker, nicker)

"OK old guy, hang on, you act like you've never eaten before" (Hrrr hrrr hrrr)

"Hi goaty, goaty, goaties". (mmmeeehh eh eh)

"Hello Sassy, Sassy, Sassy"

"Bandy Boy, waitin' for your chow?"

"Pipey Brown! You're turning into a big girl"

And on and on and on.... I'm sure the neighbors think I'm the crazy animal lady. But that's quite alright. I'll never be lonely!
