We’re still barely underway here in the Merrimack Valley, but there is some color. Not good color, really, but it’s something.
Back Yard Foliage Update

Lens Flare
My little Nikon Coolpix point and shoot guy sure does love lens flares. I wonder if those two times I dropped it last week are playing a roll here.
Saturday Morning Views
Random looks from a random Saturday morning…
Last night we found out that the last company Jen worked for had a conference in San Diego this week and if she was still working there she would have gone. Also, I would have gone for the ride and pretty much spent my days wandering around and taking 10000000000 pictures on film. Make believe these shitty pics were shitty film pics and you’d get the idea:
Pillow Cat: Lens Flare Edition
Moon Over Grocery Store
My little point and shoot sure has a tough time at night. It does not play nicely with the moon.
Autumn in the Back Yard Update
I went outside just now to bring out the trash. I took the opportunity to get an update on the fall foliage in the back yard. I will break the two minute experience into three pieces.
Part One: The Leaves are Changing
Part Two: Are These Poisonous?
Part Three: Frogger
And that is the summary of the two minutes I was outside. The sun is blazing and the air temperature is a glorious 73 degrees. It’s practically summer again except that it will probably be chilly again in a day or two.
Buying In
Methuen has had a recycling pick up for as long as we’ve been living here (I think). I’ve never really participated. They changed the trash pickup process on us last week and it includes a huge recycling barrel. Okay. I’m buying in now. So much so that we have a recycling barrel in the mudroom, right near our regular trash barrel.
Let the sorting and separating commence.
Bertha Update
This morning at work has been INSANE. Crazy upon crazy upon crazy. I went upstairs to go to the bathroom in one of the brief breathing moments and figured I’d take a quick pic of Bertha, seeing as I haven’t documented Bertha’s progress for a while.
Bertha is HUGE, but she hasn’t grown a lot over the last week or two. She’s starting to open up a new leaf now, but it’s been a while since I saw any clear signs of growth. I’m a little worried about those spots on the Ficus though. Those don’t look happy.
Anyway, this will be my photo-a-day pic because I am not going to have time for anything more elaborate.
Duck and cover, it’s back to work time.
Rodent of the Day
I was waiting for my lunch to heat up in the microwave and I happened to look outside and see our groundhog friend.
I don’t know anything about groundhogs but I do know that this little sucker is adorable.
As cute has he is, he’s isn’t even close to as cute as Lady Pachalotte of the Rhode Island Patchalottes.
One of Those Days
I feel exactly the same way, Patches.
