The county pest man told me once we have our first drenching rain I’ll be able to go outdoors again. Avoiding yellow jackets has become a complicated business. I can now imagine how awful a peanut allergy is!
Since I’m stuck inside I’m learning the latest group dance - Gangnam Style - it’s fun!
I’ve 125 photos of Wales uploaded, waiting to be sized and edited. Yikes! You really do not want to see 125 photos (and that’s not including the shots my husband took with his camera). It would be like watching the neighbor’s slide show from hell. Here’s a picture my husband snapped at one of my historic hero’s ruined castles-
The first day - hiked nine miles along a Roman Road (still in use) and reached Llewellyn ap Gruffydd’s Castle Dolwyddelan. So yeah, that’s my eye… I think I look cross-eyed but hubby likes the photo. Damn the English king, Edward I!
At the door of Dolwyddelan Castle. Windy.
Oh, I almost forgot what I originally intended to blog about… The Walking Dead begins, when? October 14th? Although I cannot imagine it without Shane. Oh my poor Shane, you was robbed! I can’t wait to see what happens with Andrea, but Laurie and Rick can eat dirt for all I care. And Daryl better quit with the Rick’s little buddy crap. Regardless, I need my zombie fix.
I’m also looking forward to the season premiers of NCIS (character-driven plots), Person of Interest (Jim Caviezel and Michael Emerson), and of course, The Big Bang Theory (satisfies the Geek in me). I can’t remember a time when the small screen actually enticed me far more than the big screen. For many years I didn’t even watch television, aside from The Simpsons. Of course we have to wait until Spring, 2013, for A Game of Thrones. It’s kind of like reading the books if, like me, you bought them as they were actually released. By the time you got to the next book you weren’t sure you even cared anymore. Ah well. It’s a big cast, a difficult set, so I can’t expect miracles.
Most important - The San Francisco Giants have clinched the West and will be playing in the post-season. Dare we hope for another World Series appearance? That would be too cool for words! I never imagined I’d have an opportunity to attend one World Series let alone considered the possibility of two.
All right, back to editing my photos.
Oh, books? Stay is out. I’m working on a print copy of all three books in The Souls Series - Incorporeal, In the Flesh and Stay, and I’m doing final edits for the Daughters of Persephone science fiction series. Coming soon!
Looking forward to Person of Interest and Big Bang! It’s the only reason I’m glad to see Fall arrive.
Can’t wait to see more pics.
I am holding out for Downton Abbey.
Eek. I hope those yellow jackets go away soon. I just bought a copy of stay. The blurb sounds fun. Right now I’m just in love with the horse’s name- Bodacious. Love it. Gonna give this a read tonight
I thought of you often the last few days. I was stuck in the house because of my darned asthma and the a valley filled with smoke. And it wasn’t even local smoke. It was imported from fires in Ellensburg, Washington 350 miles away. I stared out the windows and felt like a caged kitty. Yesterday we had rain, hard rain for about an hour. The rest of the day was clear. I sat on the porch and could breath. Today some of the smoke is back but yesterday was glorious.
I am sending thoughts for rain to you. *whoosh*
What a beautiful view..It looks like you are having a blast..
Yes, Savannah, I was nearly blasted off the hilltop! Very gusty!
Thanks, Stephanie. I don’t much like smoke but right now I’d take it. We’ve been lucky (fingers crossed) so far with fires. But the Santa Anna’s haven’t hit yet.
Thanks, Delilah! I like his name too!
I haven’t watched, Steph, but I know everyone in the UK was talking about it.
I know, Amber. I’m really looking forward to those two shows!
People who are allergic to peanuts have it easy. Peanuts don’t have wings and chase after you.
The Giants can’t go to the World series, because they will be stopped by the Nationals!
I actually don’t know what I’m talking about, but the Nationals are the team that plays near to where I live, so I have to shill for them a bit.
Ah, Aaron, I’m quite worried about the Nationals. Very worried!
You’re right, Yoshi! Peanuts also don’t get pissed off for no reason.
My son showed me this video a few weeks ago and I love it. I just went into his room and did the dance. He cracked up.
Dana, isn’t it hilarious? I love it. I’m so glad you learned the dance! Gangnam Style!
I think you and Ishbel should learn to dance Gangnam style dressed appropriately and put on a demonstration for me and Oscar the next time we get together !!
And yes Bring back Leroy Jethro Gibbs and we have found Person of Interest too and like it
Oh Tom, Ishbel and I could really rock it! We’d be great.
Glad you like Person of Interest. Tonight - NCIS!
