Today’s song is from Trumaskedrabbit’s play list on Yourtube. I knew TMR otherwise known as Trudi from Multiply. I was also connected to her on Facebook til her passing several years ago. I saw over on Shmoozezone that there was a maskedrabbit as well, but that person was no longer on Shmoozezone when I joined up so I am not sure if it was the same person, but I am going to assume it was a distinct possibility.

TMR (Trudi) was a Canadian exobiologist of Russian heritage, who worked with the manned mission to Mars. Most of her Yourtube videos are of a scientific nature, so if you are a science buff, feel free to peruse her Youtube channel to watch a few of them. Trudi was also an animal lover and posted a lot about her cats, two Bernese mountain dogs, and a bird or two. I think her old blog on Blogger is still up as well.

The following video is one of her earliest ventures into video making.

It’s Monday! Bring on the music!

It’s Music Monday, you know what to do! Share a favorite song to get the day started on a positive note.

Just a continuation of the earlier blog. Sorry the pics aren’t the best, I was sitting with my camera in a bit of sun so they came out looking hazy. I promise better ones this summer some time.

Just a reminder that most areas should be seeing some hummingbird activity. With the odd spring we have been having, I am surprised to see them show up on time. I hung up a couple of feeders yesterday and they were visited in less than 5 minutes. I’ll have to get out the rest of the feeders today and some more nectar made later.

Reminder that to make hummingbird food, it is 4 parts water to 1 part granulated sugar. Do not use brown sugar or honey, and please do NOT use red food coloring. Bring the water and sugar to a boil and boil a couple of minutes and then allow to cool completely before filling the feeders.

It’s overcast here this morning with rain predicted later, I’ll try and capture a pic or two if the weather and time allows.

I should have posted this yesterday with the Music Monday theme but didn’t think of it at the time.

OK music lovers — here are the rules:

Answer each category with a SONG. No repeats and don’t use the internet (it’s tempting but try not to). Go with the first song that comes to mind, and change the answers to your own. Just copy the below questions and paste in the comment section with your answers. Good luck!

It’s Monday, please join us in Music Monday and rock out to some of your favorite songs to get your week off to a great start!

It’s been quite the past week with a lot of upheaval in weather, family issues, and just life stuff in general. I never know whether to be thankful or to inwardly groan that another Monday has rolled around.

You know the drill it’s Music Monday! Pick a song favorite and post it on your blog and try to chase those doldrums away and get some energy for the week ahead. Today I have picked an oldie but a goodie. Have a good week bloggers!

We all know what to do, a lot of it is common sense. I won’t lecture anyone on the evils of pollution, global warming, not recycling, etc. etc. We tend to take things for granted, even our very existence. Let’s hope we can all be aware and more conscious on daily choices for our future selves and our planet.

It’s that time of year again, and even though we have had a few tornado watches and thunderstorms already, luckily we have gotten thru unscathed.

Last night brought more rounds of wind, rain, hail and watches and warnings. I snapped a quick pic at around 6 last night of some hail that fell. It was varying degrees of sizes and thankfully didn’t break any windows. I’ll be out later today to check to see if I see any roof damage.

Hopefully those of you to the East of me aren’t dealing with the storms today or tomorrow. Be safe if you are! We are back to windy colder weather, and will see some more below freezing temps this week-end.
