Yep, I really am easily amused. But it's how I manage to keep from getting depressed during trying times, I guess.
Today I walked to the lake and saw a pair of geese with 6 babies. Then I walked to the bridge and saw a tom turkey. He gobbled at me. Then when I got to the bridge, I saw loons. Back at the lake there were two pairs of geese with 6 babies per pair, for a total of 10. I love spring...
Now I'm back at work, but at least lunch wasn't a waste. How is your day going?

Hi dawn,
That must be a lovely sight to see nature all around you, when I went out to my front garden, there were two robins waiting for me to feed them, I was having a lovely peaceful time till hubby came home early from work, he works at the airport and they sent him home early as there was nothing for them to do, so I had to put up with him being undermy feet, now he has goen upstaires to watch the tv, GOOD!!!

I really envy you!
My day had been drab and more drab. It was a lazy day, people do not kind of feel like coming out in heat except when in emergencies. we did have few emergency admission though and that kept me occupied for a while.

what a lovely lovely sight dawna, I wish I live in a house with a lake outside my backyard or at least near a lake or a stream. I really do love nature and I miss my hometown, missed my mother so much!

Awww - how neat to see so many birdies and their babies! How cool that you're just a walk away from the lake . . . I'm only a walk away from the pool - ha ha. Today I had to go to the doctor's today for my daughter's physical . . . last time (just 2 weeks ago) we had a horrific session with many shots (for school) . . . so even though today's was just a physical, you can imagine how horrific it was again anyway (sigh). Anyway, for the sake of a "nature" discussion, on the drive to the doctor's my daughter noticed the "cherry possoms" that were in bloom - that's right - cherry possoms - ha ha!!

At least I got out of my pajamas today. I helped my neighbor with her business reports/taxes, then went out and watered the garden (even though it's been threatening to rain all day). Then I took my boy Sheltie to the vet. He hasn't been feeling good...I can tell it in his eyes. $150 later...I should find out the results of the bloodwork on Wednesday. Then I stopped by my Mom's and had a piece of pecan pie and made arrangements to go to the casino on Wednesday. Then I went grocery shopping...eck, while my dog stayed at Grandma's. Now, I'm home MyLotting...but I think it's almost time for a nap...then Dancing with the Stars... I'm glad you saw some pretty cool stuff during your break from work...
