Hi Dianne, I'm glad to hear you're feeling much better. And that you have a nice mix of warmth and rain now - that's perfect for the garden! We've had similar, though mostly warm and dry recently, with not enough rain, so the ground is very dry for the plants, animals and birds. Our roses and sweet peas are in full flower now though, and they're beautiful.
Yes, the baby hedgehogs are adorable! Their spines are quite soft when they're little and they have gorgeous soft bellies, so they look and feel like little plush toy hedgehogs! One of nature's amazing little miracles. xx

Hi, Dianne!  I tried to write back & my computer went off, losing everything.  We're taking it in tomorrow to see why it keeps shutting down.  It gives a quick blue error screen and shuts down immediately, then restarts on its own.  Anyway, Randy decided to eat around 4 o'clock this afternoon.  He's had three feedings today so far.  He'll get another two yet today.  We give him 1/2 cup 6 times a day.  He has a small throat and thus the spaced out meals.  Same with water.  If we give him too much, up it comes.  We bought him a toy at Tractor Supply.  He loves it!  Take care!!!!  xxx

Very hot here at the moment! Reaching 30 degrees (that's about 90F). I absolutely love it! We've got some baby hedgehogs at the hospital now!
Hope you're doing OK, Dianne. Have you recovered from your surgery yet, or is it a long process? xx

Gave you some gold my friend!xoxo

Hi Dianne!!xoxo I Never put my Sunflowers out, they are laying in my garden shed, something did get in there & eat some & made a terrible mess while eating them I think it was a mouse! Bridget has been very busy in the garden, I've been helping as much as I can! Today is not going to be a good day for me I'm having a colonoscopy tomorrow so today I have a ton of laxatives to take
because I can't drink the liquid you are supposed  to
! I had an electrocardiogram yesterday and several other test too! Hopefully they will find out what is wrong with me! I send you my love & hugs!xoxo

I am a Bengals fan when they play well which is not very often.  So I’m not a true fan.  I moved to Ohio 22 years ago…a transplant from the NY city area.  I’ll root for a NY team more than the Bengals.  I do like living in Ohio.  Less people, less
expensive, less traffic and less chaotic

Cool…looks like you live near Cleveland.  I live near Cincinnati.

Hi, Dianne!  Oh, no!  We've been in that situation before.  Once our 2nd  large boxer, Evander, pulled Don off his feet and was dragged along the street.  Don had a scraped knee and then the latest style jeans!  LOL  Boxers are very strong dogs.  I could walk our first boxer, Jaedee.  She was not as tall and would keep her nose to the ground.  The best walker.  Poor you, with the scraped face.  Your daughter must have a good phone that she can clean up boo boos.  :)  I don't know how to do that!  Happy to hear the recital was really nice and you were able to have your picture taken with the girls.  :)  Such good memories!!!  Take care!  xxx  P.S.  Randy has been feeling good.  He's still ornery, though! 

Ty for visiting xxx

Hi, Dianne!  I'd like to post more cactus photos.  Every time I think about downloading photos, something else gets in the way.  Maybe tomorrow.  We've had some pretty sunsets and rtavels to Las Vegas last week.  My niece's daughter, Olivia, is getting married to Luke tomorrow in Chardon, Ohio.  :)  Should be a big day for the family!  Hope you get some warm weather soon.  Ours is "cookin'"!  Today it was 95 degrees.  Tomorrow only 87.  It will feel like a cold front has passed through.  Ha ha!  Take care over there.  Happy Memorial Day Weekend.  xxx
