Ya'll I missed summer

Were in the world did summer go? I don't think it even happened. Did it? I barely remember 4th July and BAM it's the Boys birthday. Which was yesterday. Which falls in Autumn. How did that happened? I think it's because I've been hiding out inside all summer. Didn't do any of those summery things I wanted to do. Like gardening. But such is life.



But I have noticed something. Twice within the last month I have said "ya'll". Which I know many will say "so?" You don't understand. I'm consider as a one of those Yankees. You just don't say "ya'll" when your one of those Yankees. Don't ask me why. I don't make the rules. It's just the way it is. Now don't get me wrong. I have nothing against anyone saying it. After all my Ma says it. She's been saying it long before my huge feet started stomping around this Earth. In fact I think it's cute when a Southern says "ya'll". But when I say it, well there is nothing cute about it. A girl who has a Northern accent with a touch of Canadian accent saying "ya'll" sounds very..... what's the word I'm looking for..... I think weird is the word. Yeah, weird. Out of place. In fact it sounds like I'm mocking people when I say it. Which I'm not of course. But you see I come from a place were our version of "ya'll" is "you guys".



So, I've been trying to make the side bars of this blog less bogged down with junk. Been going good so far. But one problem. The tags/labels. Oh my, oh my, oh my..... My tag list goes on and on forever. But I found where you can make the tag cloud thingie. I set it up. Took a look at my blog to make sure it looks right. The tag cloud overflowed over into the main area of the blog blocking part of the entries. That my Dear is a problem of course. So any ideas on how to compact, shorten, what have you that sucka.



So, yesterday was the Bots B-day. And we did nothing amazing for it. Should of. But didn't. Unless you consider taking his car in to get to the shop for it to be worked and then taking the Dart home to be amazing.



Secretly, I love riding the rails here. All the people that come and go. All the places you see. What have you. I think anywhere I live, if they have a rail system of some form, I'll for sure ride on it. Love love love it. My favorite of all rails being Amtrak. Love'em.



My Aunt and Uncle have welcomed a new member to the family. That above there is Noodles the Poodle. CUTE!!!!! As soon as I'm up there again I'm of course going to smother that poor thing with love. Of course I can't forget to smother my Lady (my Grandma's dog).





And I couldn't forget Hunter.

Which that is about the only picture I have of him that he isn't running, rolling around, or getting into trouble. He was a puppy. What more can you expect.
Sorry about the cute pup overload.
And I've been bitten with the knitting and crocheting bug lately. Hopefully soon I will have photographic evidence of that soon.
