I just saw a shooting star while walking the pups.
Wouldn't life be so great if we actually did get a wish when one passes through our little neck of the universe. 

Short Rant:

Why does everyone see me as a bad guy?
I would give my left nut for someone in real need. I have given my honest to god last dollar to someone who was hungry. I am still in love with and respect the very first person I ever kissed. I'm a safe driver, sort of. I still hold open doors for women and children even though most ladies in redneck'sville just give me "Go to hell" looks as they pass. Shit! I petted a freaking stray cat today at lunch.
Do I have a sign on me that screams "Talk to me like I'm crap"?

Goodnight and sweet dreams, where ever you are.
I miss you. 

Better one, or better two.

Yeah, I know I'm not smiling.
Deal with it.

Things I do on my day off.

 My baby garden. Grow my beauties....

 Strawberries and the beginnings of a future rosemary hedge.

 Cloned Heirloom Purple Bearded Irises from my Grandmother's house on Scott Street.
I may split them yet again before I transfer them into my yard.

 Massive amount of Celosia. This stuff is like a freaking weed by how well it germinates.

 The pineapples are coming along nicely.

 Last fall, I bought 4 dry, dead looking, and pitiful Boston Ferns from Lowes. They are definitely not dead anymore and will look great by this summer. Bonus... I split them all multiple times since they were so root bound that I will have a few to spread around the firepit/bbq area under the Pecan tree area.

 Some more discount dying plants that are looking great now.

 This water feature is what I spent most of the afternoon on. When the pond is completed, it will feed an aquaponic system for year-round strawberries.

Just a pot of random annuals as well as a nice pot of Oregano that I keep warm and safe while  it is cold outside.

 Better picture of my secret to great frozen pizza.

Can't sleep, no one to talk to. May as well do a meme.

I needed this today.

No one should have to be at the airport at 5am.

Damn I love Betty White.

I went to Cracker Barrel today for the first time in quite a while. Being there, in hopes of some New Year's collards and black eye'd peas, reminded me of my mother when she had her first bout with breast cancer.  Every night before close, she would call down to the restaurant and ask me to bring home  some dumplings and hash brown casserole. Her chemo made her so sick that there were only a couple foods that she could eat without making her sick. I would pack up all the dumplings that were left over in a quart jar and fill up a to-go plate of casserole for a late night dinner with her at the kitchen table.
I may not of been as good of a son than she deserved, who had his priorities way out of wack most of the time, but seeing the smile on her face as we sat at the table late into the night talking was always a good feeling.
