Lavendar, bulls, bullsh** and butts
Anyways, there was a little bull. In my houseyard. Make that more than one little bull. All looking somewhat guilty in their newfound yard. Like: Come ON dude… it’s raining, you were inside, the gate was open, the grass is sweeter… what’d you EXPECT??
They started eating my lavendar!!! And as any lazy gardener knows, lavendar can survive drought and thrive on neglect (my exact specialty) but it does not like being eaten by cheeky little bulls!!
(I’m sure this advice is somewhere in one of those fancy, schmancy gardening tomes!)
Out you go Number Seven, you and your mates!
Just ’cause you are as cute as… you cannot eat my lavendar. It’s all I’ve got. All that seperates me from the Gardenless. And I’m clinging to it!
Back out to Number 137 and his red buddy… hang on. What’s going on with that face??
Euwwwwww!!!
More rain please, Hughie… we gotta get Number 137’s face clean! Otherwise the other little bulls might call him Sh**Head… and we can’t have that kind of language around the kids!
And in a completely unrelated matter… Dash went for a sleepover with his cousins last night, and Roley went with him. To stay forever.
Man I miss those two cute backsides.
(Yes, the IS a skinny boy bottom under those baggy shorts. Just!).

That’s a very decent lavender bush, no wonder the bulls thought it would be a nice bit of roughage for their diet 😛
Great pic of the 2 behinds lol 😉

Oh gosh! The puppies are still very tiny! From the picture of them romping with their toy, I thought they were biggish dogs.
Anyways, you’ll want one butt back. The other…well…not so much. You can’t fool me. I know puppy fatigue. I’m glad they have gone to good homes.

Jayne… the big one is not a lavendar bush, it’s… well, it’s something else lovely and purple. (technically speaking!)
Debby… that (of course) is an old pic of the pups, but you KNEW that!!! Taking the P***!!! Got the right hand butt back, the little furry butt is tucked up at his new home. Everyone is asleep ‘cept me…
Off to bed for this sleepyhead!!

No, actually, it didn’t occur to me that it was an old picture. Though it should have. Jeepers. I think I need to make sure I didn’t accidently buy decaf coffee this week. Man.
Looking at that cow with the dirty face it also has occurred to me that you should probably add that to your short list of things not allowed to lick your face…puppies, too right. And cattle. Cattle should not be allowed to lick your face either.

And Gerard…he shouldn’t be allowed to lick your face either.
And rats.
Those snakes.
Okay. BB, is there one thing in this world that should be allowed to lick your face? I’m actually not thinking of anything that I’d want licking my face. Nuthin. Maybe that would be an easier list to make.

Awww, that last pic is so darling 🙂
I bet you’re glad to see the end of the puppy chaos though. Whew!
Bulls in the yard… I know. We’ve had that a time or two, and the occasional stallion goes flying by to see if I left a mare’s gate open…. not uncommon to look out the window and say “What in the….?” lol.
Cute bulls though. Cept that one with nasty face. Ewww.

Hey Bush Babe looks like you and I have the same gardenng philosophies – and the lavender thrives over here, too. Of course, I don’t have bulls anywhere near me here in the OC.
Hope it’s ok – I added you to my blogroll today. Just love reading your blog, and want to share it with my friends.

That poop-headed bull looked pretty mean!

Hi I’m Julie – thanks for joining my fabulous crew!! I am so lucky, only nice people seem to visit me here… and thanks for adding me to your blogroll. Just a few short months ago, I would have had no concept what that meant!!
Karen – the poop-headed bull (nicely put!) is actually kinda cute – they all eat out of my hand before they are allowed out in the paddock. He’s watching me in the car with my camera stuck to my face, and thinking to himself: “WHo the hay is that weird creature and WHAT the hay is she pointing at me??”
Debby – have a Starbucks on me (or whatever you Americans do for coffee!)… I chose that pic as it was a cute “bye bye” photo of the two culprits in my story. SOrry for the confusion! And I shall be putting a Motto at the side of this blog soon (when I get time!) regarding what should lick you on the face!!!
Hugs

PS Everyone – you need to enter my mystery photo contest today – pass it on!!!

Hmm – I had never contemplated letting a bull lick my face… sniffing you is what they should not do, though, as that is what they are up to when they receive the present!
