Not sure..did I?

I don't remember if I've ever mentioned what I do all day between Mondays and Fridays....

I sit at a desk.....and refer to my space as "mission control"

I work alone all day....briefly seeing my coworkers as they check in the front office (aka mission control) before going home for the day and then I'm alone again

I do have an employer....he surfs...he looks like Kevin Costner (seriously, people have been known to stare).......
and he fills in as my "girlfriend coworker" because everyone else is the male gender....all 30 of them. 

So you can imagine how excited I was when a new girl showed up...at least I'm saying she's a girl

She's made her home as close to my desk as she can get...only the window separates us (sorry these were taken through the glass)...she's sweet and keeps me company during the day...if I open the door to shoo her down from the newly planted trees and salvage what's left of the budding leaves she's quick to chirp at me and shakes her tail

I have lizards outside too, hummingbirds, and butterflies.....Kevin Costner says it's like watching
National Geographic outside my glass wall.....

Squirrel friend has been living here for several months now....
the tree in front of my desk...
is the smallest and nearly bare of leaves......

Kevin Costner is noticing his trees...and put two and two together.

Where's that annoying mocking bird when you need one?....






on an entirely different subject...we're going out of town...to the place we go to relax...
and spend time looking forward to summer...

it's quiet....

the street sign is unnecessary...no mail delivery



these people seldom visit anymore
decay is setting in

this will have to wait until Fall...
summer heat is too intense for this city girl

this city girl has already purchased her new floaty chair with a built in drink holder


home away from home

soon my favorite cove.....soon


see you friends.....I have last years bathingsuit to try on....I'm not expecting to be pleased

How fun to have the wildlife right there so close to your desk. Great shot of the squirrel, ours up here don't have spots like yours...very interesting. - Enjoy your getaway, what a great spot! xo

McSquirrelerson! My dog goes ballistic at the sight of a SKWERL! They're so cute... Lovely shots of the lake (it is a lake, right?).

I hope there's room for me in your lake. I'll bring my own floatie.

and, I totally love your coworker. She is NUTS!

Hey, great photos! Your squirrel friend is quite the looker! Perfect focus, great close-up captures.

I am so glad you have "friends" at work!
Isn't is so funny how a little animal siting can simply brighten a day!?
I am so jealous of your home away from home and cruising on the water.
When I am covered in dirt in a hot field I will think of you in your floaty chair with a drink holder...either that or of Kevin Costner....
