Ah ha! I caught them collecting themselves in the field.......

It is becoming quite the usual site to find my dear LARGE feathered friends either crossing the road to this field in front of me, or all together on the other side just gathering. They are so ugly they are cute. And they are just so big and clunky...... they are funny to see running.

Today I have to do my grocery shopping for the week, but I feel totally uninspired as to what to make for dinner. I am getting really lazy and don't want to make a fancy dinner since I would much rather knit....... but I know something other than hamburger helper would be great too. The sun is out and it looks so nice and warm outside, but it is still only about 20 degrees. It is suppose to be really nice tomorrow..... can't wait.

Davy Jones dead on 2/29/2012

Davy Jones died on 2/29 at the age of 66. Wow. I was a little shocked because Peter Tork has been battling cancer and I never thought that one of the guys would go before Peter!

So, it is strange to think they were so much a part of my life as a teenager but as I grew up and had my own family etc. they became just a part of my memory like Chatty Cathy, my trolls and the Monkees. I feel bad, don't get me wrong, he left family and friends.....my prayers go out to them. But I think I am going to be okay even if all four of the Monkees were to pass away today. I find that as they grew up (they were only in their 20's) and their lives evolved and I became more involved I found myself totally non interested. Michael became a horrific liberal, Peter always was..... only Micky and Davy seemed to go on with their lives and become more than just pompous asses. I don't know where Davy's heart was in regards to Jesus Christ, so I can't even say "See you on the other side." And honestly, I am not going to loose any sleep over it. Thanks for the memories!
