3. We lost our sweet guinea, Tut. He got taken out one night in his tree - perhaps a hawk or owl? I will miss his curious nature - he was always peeking in the windows at us.
4. Sometimes people ask me how I am motivated to exercise all the time. Here's a little trick. When I am so busy that I have to wake up early to run before the boys get up, I set the radio alarm to a country music station. I loathe country music. I hear that twangy singing and I can't take it. I have to get up to shut it off! And once I'm up, well, might as well go run.
5. My first ever craft fair is tomorrow. Fingers crossed for nice weather (it's outdoors) and people who love my wares!
Linked today with Nancy's Random Friday.

Snakes on the trail give me the shivers. I've seen two recently and that's very rare....not since I was dating that girl where every place we went there was a snake. Talk about omens!
Old Tut, he had a long life and did enjoy peeping in windows.
They are saying clouds tomorrow morning so maybe you will have a good day.
LOL.. I need to exercise more, and I doubt the country music trick will work, even though I feel the same way you do.
Good luck at the show!.. and I love your door. That looks really cool.
1st question always would be - what color was his tip of the tail? a little bit of green ... you have a baby copperhead. the ones i dislike big time. i have seen an adult & a baby this year. & i am not so not their friend.
i can handle black snakes but i don't really like them. or want them around ... i know they live but could they live not on my property, please. i beg, please!
i love how you reacted after ... sort of like me... i know i have to deal ... & then the scaredy cat comes out after. ha. ha!! ( :
Sorry about Tut.Hug
I understand the snake thing I never kill but I certainly do fling:)
The door looks wonderful.
Country music that is funny.
Good luck with your craft fair I seen your creativity you will do great. B
I have my fingers crossed, but I think you will do well!
AW :( so sorry about Tut .
It's cool that you can fling snakes , I mean if you have to .
Well I def need to start fast walking more ...hmm perhaps I would have to put on Rap to get me to jump up and shut off the alarm ( ya it would Rap would be my least fav as I love Country music lol)
I think you are brave.
Those door ghosties are fun.
YOU are gonna do GREAT at the fair.
I sure enjoy visiting.

Awesome!
I had chill bumps just thinking of you flinging that snake!!! yikes!
Good luck with the craft fair.
Snakes and ghosts too scary. Well, the snake anyway. Sorry about Tut. I wish you well at the craft fair. Have a great weekend.
Good luck with the craft fair!
Poor Tut. We all have to go sometime, I guess.
I used to kill snakes. I hate them. But my daughter forbid the slaying of non poisonous snakes, so they are safe from me now. Not the rattlers and copperheads, though.
Good luck with your craft fair booth- I hope you sell out! I don't jive well with country either..and most would be surprised if they could hear my exercise music..it's all about the beat!
I'm no fan of snakes, either, Lisa. Kudos to you for staying with the fitness program of running. Have a nice weekend!
Great door ghosties! Good luck at the fair!
So sorry about Tut. At least he had a good life while he was with you guys! Hope you can get another one (or more) in the future.
Your exercise trick cracked me up. Maybe I should give that a try. Good luck at your craft fair!
Awww, so sorry about Tut. Guineas do grow on you. We are down to one now and I'll be sorry if/when he's gone.
Love your decorations and your wake up method. I should try that. :)
Very pretty door and cute Halloween decorations.
Hope you have good success with the craft fair.
Taking time away while John is sick.
Good luck with craft fair! I love the 'ghostly' image:)
I love the decoration. But it make my daughter screaming.
Snakes are very frightened one. Your halloween image looks great. Very sad for your TUT.
Sorry about Tut.
Hoping today's event is wonderful and profitable for you.
not crazy about snakes any time or anywhere but think you're a wise woman in how you motivate yourself to exercise. might have to use that tip. our last storm brought in 6 guinea's but only three are still here. they've moved from the road to the barn to the yard; guess I'm going to buy chicken scratch this winter 'cause I hate for stuff to go hungry.
wishing you huge success with the craft fair; hope you did well.
Interesting to read of your 'slice of life'...glad you moved that snake♫ My randoms: http://lauriekazmierczak.com/dash-of-orange/
Oh I am sorry about Tut.
love

Too funny about the twangy music! But I'm sorry to hear about the guinea.
I love this post! You are a hoot. Country Music, I know what you mean!!! I try to work out 30 minutes every morning, but I am retired and, therefore, gainfully unemployed!!!
My daughter gets up at 5 to go to a fitness group once a week. I'm proud of her!
Good for you!
Poor Tut! :(
Hope you did well at the Craft Fair. I'll bet that you DID... Hope the weather is as nice there as it is here.
Funny about your loathing of country music. I used to feel the same way 'til I married a man who LOVES it. Now--I love it too.... ha
Halloween is such a neat time of year--especially for kids and decorations.
Have a great Sunday.
Hugs,
Betsy
Oh, I hope you did well at the sale, Lisa!
The window looks so cute; I know the boys are loving getting into Halloween time. :)
xoxo
I'm so sorry about Tut. That must have been so sweet for him to look into the windows.
So sad about your guinea. :( I would not make a good country gal--that would make me cry.
My daughter lived for a time in a house that was occupied by a restless spirit. She actually did see it, though the daughter of her housemate was the one who had the best contact.
It's the kind of thing which could make people a bit snaky.
blessings and Bear hugs!
You are a snake flinger...and that makes me giggle.
Your poor Guinea pig. So, he was outside? I know nothing about those little critters....I thought they had to be locked up like gerbils.
The ghosts on your doors are really cute; I'm sure the boys are in heaven with all the décor.
I hope the craft fair rocked!
