Exhausted!
Morgan here! It’s been an exhausting week. The peep was sick for a couple days and we all played Florence Nightingale. We are such natural caretakers! She slept one day so we were all required to hop into her bed and sleep with her. Very tiring for us, all that sleeping. She forgot to give us treats that day but we forgave her. Sort of. She’s all better now.
Sasha: This angle makes me look fat. Who took this pictures?
Sasha took advantage and read the newspapers ON THE FORBIDDEN TABLE! Crazy peep had to wash it before the humans could eat. Something about fur. Sasha likes to keep up with the sports teams!
There is a new quilt on the peep’s bed. It’s a lighter color than the old blue one and it’s very soft and fluffy. We’ve all taken a hop on but Sasha and I like it best.
The peep said I had to include a shot of the canoodlers! Sharing is caring! All else is good here except the peep’s struggle with a mischievous squirrel but that’s a post for another day.
We wish you all a great weekend!

Morgan – By now I’m sure your peep is better … you must be a stellar nurse. You’re right – Sasha looks like she’s put on a few pounds with all that fur – whew, all that fur would make me very warm.

Doggone squirrel. I like them usually but not when they are eating the only flowers I have here. Last owners were not gardeners. So far I’ve had a dogwood and a peony bloom and not much else.

Have you tried Tabasco?

No, I haven’t tried anything yet. I’m assuming it’s squirrels because I only see squirrels and birds on my deck rail. I’m still in shock as I didn’t expect anything to bother a deck planter that high off the ground.

You might want to spray your planters with chili sauce or Tabasco. You’ll need to reapply but it might discourage any hoodlums munching on your plants. 🤞🏻

I’ll look for that. It’s only 3 planters so it wouldn’t be a lot of work. I just can’t believe it. I’m going to removed the sweet potato vines which seem to be attracting them and replace those with a weird smelling flower like lantana. It’s a very hot sunny spot so that may help too. Maybe I’ll give up on the morning glories.

I have deer spray that smells like mint. I may try that first so I don’t have to buy anything but still pulling out that sweet potato vine.

I don’t understand what’s so bad about fur on the table. After Sasha went to all the trouble “seasoning” it, your peep washed it? Doesn’t she know that fur adds roughage to a meal?
