Do You Hear What I Hear? `~ SICKA OF CICADAS

Well, here in the great mid west of Missouri Weather is severe
and so is the CICADAS.

FOR 'BOUT 2 WEEKS THE SOUNDS of a chirping has been going on. The Cicadas have left their 13 year hibernation from underground and have invaded.

there is a swarm.

Thank God they don't bite. (even though I scream like a little school girl when one hits me...My fear is in the midst of my horror movie scream one will go flying in my mouth)

They come out and molt, and of course mate.

if you shake a bush or take a broom or stick to a tree and hit it like a pinata they all come out.


The squirrels love it!! they pick there little molted crustacean bodies off the tree and eat them. the birds seem to be happy too, I have seen a robin flying in and picking up an exoskeleton.

they seem to be calming down. The 2 weeks is almost up, I hope all find a mate and go underground for another 13 years.

New At The Nest

I'll Keep...........

I will Keep My Guns & My Freedom
You Can Keep the Change
(if you want)

Me shooting a .30-30 Lever action.

sohpia and a bb gun




a pistol semi automatic 22








Hoping next time we visit we can shoot the AR and the shot gun..which frankly scares me!

No, I have not been hiding out in some bunker somewhere with my food rations....

Speaking of food however the garden has been a slow go with the weather.
it really has been a whirl wind, when spring started it was going along fine and dandy...then the midwest got pelted with major storms and lots of rain.

this year my goal for my garden is to harvest alot for canning . It will be hopefully a fun adventure.

We have been teaching the kids how to respect and handle guns. We visit a family friend and shoot on their land.

I will be finishing up a new dollie this week for sure!
Hope all are doing well

Luck Be A Lady Tonight!!

Well, this Lucky lady would have been listed a few days ago on Ebay..but I got the nasty Death Black Screen...and nothing.....called tech peeps, they could not help (after spending 50 bucks for a few brief 15 minutes....) Their adivce was, Get a new computer.....

**Sigh***

however, I do indeed feel very lucky, you see our old computer was 5 years old. And it had 5 years worth of pics and documents..files and e-patterns....

It just so happens that I backed all of that information up in the past 2 weeks!!!

so lady luck is now listed on ebay, one penny to start plus free ship...it is a 3 day auction

just take a peek ... who knows, she could be your lady luck!!

A New Nesting Spot

With out further ado, I would like to invite you to visit a new Nesting Spot

First Dollie Listing of 2011!!

True Blue Greetings To You!!


Wow, I think the kids are staying home more then they are going to school because of all of those snow days....

With the new year fully in swing I am hoping to get more dollies listed soon.

The kids are doing great..however, the tooth fairy is going BROKE..Sophia has lost 3 teeth. she has also just had a birthday and is now 7. Goodness, How time goes by so fast.

The older kids are doing good, but i still wish they were little.

Hard to believe soon Chirstopher will be 15! WoW!!

Gabby has a birthday around the corner too..it is sad to see her going from playing with "littlest pet shops" to hanging out with her friends and doing her nails and talking about boys....right before my eyes she is growing up!


many new and exciting things seem to be around the corner....

until next time,
Heidi
