Expurrts of the invasion

Hi (Furry)furriends💗

…Rise and Shine…

Stippie…

it’s finally Summer…

and since she came to our Country

we had to do a lot again

in the garden…

…first we started with our Pear tree…

you won’t believe what the ants did…

they laid their eggs

in effurry part of our Pear tree…

and not just a few…

we found big, huge, small…

in short

an overdose of each kind of eggs…🙈

so we had to empty it all out…

and gave them a furresh dive

into the …err…sea…

but because all the roots of the tree

were full of eggs too

Granny had a lot of work

to get them clean again…

she didn’t want to lose her Pear tree

that she raised from when she was

just a little girl ♪♫♪…tree…

and so beautiful in bloom this year…

that we thought

she will finally give us some eggs…err…pears…

but unfortunately the ants

…and not to forget

the weather…

…had other plans fot her…

so now Granny is trying effurrything

to keep her safe and alife…

like Apple…once our appletree…

now in the hands of the ants and the lice too…

it was getting even worse

because effurrything that Granny did

lead to nothing…

because the rain didn’t stop

and the ants either…

and when it finally got better

and the leaves started to bloom properly again

…after the daily care…

all the new branches fell off the tree…

and so we’re back from where we started…

she looks better now…

but there’s still a lot daily work to do

because the ants are still busy

milking the few lices that are still in it…

so we have to be very observant

to take action immediately

so that the lice don’t multiply again…

and in that case

…more ants…

and despite how terrible Apple is feeling

she did her best to give a few new born apples…

…see…

…she was full in bloom before this all started…

and so sad that Granny had to take them away from her

but she told her

that she needs all her strenghts now

to get better…

and that she can try again next year…

it’s really hard work out here…

we spend hours in the garden to fix these problems…

…without poisoned stuff…

we know that we can do it without it…

it only takes a little a lot more time

and thus more patience…

but it’s not all doom and gloom…

look at this…

the clematis is full in bloom now…

without creatures that cling to her…

and we hung the curtains…

because it’s finally hot out here…

…almost 38℃ (102F) in the garden…

…the whole week…

…and we all love it…

…except Grandpaw…

we also had ONE strawberry…

and after we ate it

she now has two in the making…🍓

and we had only ONE raspberry

…none of the other plants didn’t grew well enough…

but Summer isn’t over yet

so maybe there’s hope for more…

and look at our French Geranium…

…nice huh…

and she’s doing well…

she keeps her eyes on effurrything😸

and our Hypericum is full in bloom too…

to attrack the one and only Bumble Bee this year…

not really…

there were two more yesterday morning…

but far too little this year…

we hope they’ll come later this week…

and the Butterflies too…

because we only had two of them

…so far…

and we need more activity here outside

because otherwise Granny has to entertain us

for the rest of Summer…😹

and now look

who’s having a Spa…

talking about a Spa…

we were a guest teaser

in last week’s teaser

with a picture of Spa Belgium…

click on the badge if you like to see it…

now it’s time for this week’s poem

for our furriends

Angel Sammy and Teddy…

on this picture

“There’s a whole invasion

of countless ants in nation

fixated on just one goal

milking lice to rock and roll

the trees have to pay the price

for the honey filled lice

sugared and sweet

like it was a treat

in this Summer heat

and if we weren’t there

taking care

of our beloved trees

and with our expertise

to bring them to their knees

they still would hanging around

piled together like a crowd

without making any sound

just a bunch of ants and lice

on their way to Paradise.”

We’re

T H A N K F U L

that we have it all under control

…now…

but it sure needs daily care…

…and with a little magic touch…🧙‍♀️

it will all work out fine

in the end…

look who’s taking care of her youngster too…

✨that’s magic huh✨

📚Have a Happy Sunday my furriends📚

Happy Tuesday

Hi (furry)furriends💗

Stop Stippie…

you can’t get up here…

Stop, Stop, Stop – The Hollies (1966)

the tree isn’t made for the both of us…

This town ain’t big enough for the both of us – Sparks (1974)

so better get off…

Get off of my cloud – The Rolling Stones (1966)

NOW…

Go now – The Moody Blues (1965)

OMC what did I do…

Stippie hang in there…

I call for help…

Help – The Beatles (1965)

Thank Cat Grandpaw

was there to save you…

Save me – Queen (1980)

well..

one has to learn about their mistakes…

just like Granny

about the lyrics of this song…

which we put in for this week’s Theme

on our weekly mewsic hop…

Daydream believer – The Monkees (1967)

…her first single when she was nine years old…

she loved The Monkees

and their show on television…

in fact she almost never missed the show on Caturday…

and sang effurry word loud and clear

…her English was even better than today…🙉🙊

so listen to this:

“Oh I could hand meet the wind

of the bluebird when she sings

the six o’clock a love will never ring

….then she lalala-ed…

because she didn’t understand the words at all…

and then the chorus set in

“tour up sleepy jeans

oh what does it mean

to a Daydream believer Andy

Homecoming Queen”

🙊🙉🙈

and here are the lyrics of the Monkees:

“Oh, I could hide ‘neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings
The six o’clock alarm would never ring
But six rings and I rise
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes
My shavin’ razor’s cold and it stings
Cheer up, Sleepy Jean, oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?”

Teaser or Pleaser

Hi (Furry)furriends💗

What shall we do today, Peachy…

it’s not easy to find new adventures

in the garden

after the heavy waterfall rainfall…

that even washed away

effurry ant’s nest…

so they don’t have time to show themselves

as they all have to work underground

for new corridors

and chambers…

life’s really boring sometimes…

Granny even made a barricade

so you can’t climb up in the arbor

anymore…

…therefore I also have nothing to watch…

and now it hangs with all kind

of pots and pans…

and it may look impurressive…

but that doesn’t mean that it works…🙀

because you still can jump very high…

from the table right over the pots

in the heaven of the arbor…🙈

and when Granny saw that

she was really disappointed

because she doesn’t want you to get hurt..

not by the jumps

nor by the wasps and hornets…

who manage the wine

until they’re ripe for consumption…

so the only thing we can do

is playing a little

is hanging out together

which we always do…

and raking the soil a little

of the raspberry plant…

and thus

give a helping paw for Granny

in the garden…

and make her job easier…

with all the harvesting that’s coming…

you also can make yourself useful

Peachy…

maybe you can…err…

wait

I’m not ready for this yet…

I have to catch some soil first…

…got it…

here it comes…

now you can see how it looks like

when it is raked…

…MOL…

don’t take revenge now

Peachy…

stop

I don’t want it back…

it’s for you… only for you…

come

we have a lot to be

T H A N K F U L

for this week

even if it has been raining a lot…

Violet came back…

so did the Clematis

that Granny had to cut down

to the earth after she finished blooming…

we didn’t expect that she would come back this year

so it was a big surpurrise that she did

she also has flower buds again

so hopefully we get enough sunshine

so she can open up in full bloom again…🌸

our Geranium also came back

we didn’t know what happened

but after the rainfall

she put on a brandnew dress…

…dazzling colour huh…😎

maybe she thinks she is related

to the Petunias…

…well

let’s leave her in the delusion for that…

😸

and we’re

T H A N K F U L

for the rich harvest of apples

that our apple tree gave us again

this year…

…we already have given away a lot

and we still have for a lifetime

few month in our refrigerator…

and there’s still a lot in the tree

that hasn’t come down yet…

and there are a lot of ants left

where I can play with…

so life isn’t to boring after all…

besides…

we still have a Poem to write

for our furriends Angel Sammy and Teddy…

with this picture…

“Effurry day is like a picture

that you can see

there are big ones

and there are small ones

and they all contain you and me

who can bring colour

or remain black and white

but it’s on us

to bring out the colourful light

so if we think that life is boring

we only have to reset ourselves

for a colourful exploring.”

Just one more thing…

we almost fooled them all with our picture

on the Teaser last week…

check it out effurry Tuesday

and class is prepurred for a new one…
