Animalization Victim
This is JJ - this is his face when he realized he was being animalized. he's slow, it took him til we had 5 or so before he came to the realization.

jj = afeard of clowns AND trolls also.

jj is obsessed with and afeard by trolls... so i thought i'd post this button so he can wear it to ward them off. away trolls away.

flood cleanup = gross

first and foremost: aminals. deese are some drrty ducks. see the signs below, they are swimming in front of that fort.
enlarge the picture - these people are very patriotic, they always have these flags lining their yard. but i cant figure out if they're in the trash pile now (got wet and thusly are little mold factories), or just patriotically lining the yard again.
i did not make this sign. or put that wig on that skeleton. i swear.

i did not make this sign either. i SWEAR!!! (fun fact: dad and i helped build this fort a few years ago... dad got the world's largest and deepest splinter because he refused to use the gloves i brought for him; he had to go to the hospital and have it surgically removed by an actual surgeon! no joke.)

this pile of stuff is from just our neighborhood. they are piling it here so there arent 500 cars trying to go in and out of the landfill. it's about 1/3 of the ruined bits of people's houses, theres still 2/3 of it blocking our street growing mold and smelling like mildew and crap. lovely.

some climbing for my blog


see jj, there IS climbing in findlay. marmot climbing! dee best kind. marmot was in seerius danger of being drownded and thusly deaded... so he or she as the case may be decided to ascend this pole. wonder how long heeshee was up there or if a boat ever came along for it.

not-so-amphibious vehicle

stunt driver on closed course. do not attempt.

YAY! bluegill, largemouth and somethingelse, oh my!

dis is da puddoe. above. at our mailbox. deese are da fishermins, below. also, we are walking along the street which was the river yesterday, the panoramic of the pandemonium at the end of the video posted yesterday (third video)


dis is a deaded fish.

dis is a also deaded fish.

dis is a alive fish that made it to randy's pond. randy is the neighbor (not the one with the big hands)


jj will have to id the fish for me... i know 2 of them for sure tho are widemouth bass and bluegill... i forget what the other one is. theres some fotoz, some alive and some deaded... i only took pictures of the deaded ones for id purposes. the ones in the black bucket were too hard to see, and they blended in too much in the puddle. and most of the time once i got one into the net, i was too excited to remember to take a picture. or to get the camera to focus. some automatic camera...
tomorrow my instructions are to go find another puddle with fishes in it of the same kinds, and puts them in a tank for jj. because he wantses them. now he's animalizing hisself.
rock bass? pumpkinseed? dont think i got a picture of the one i cant id...

another fish out of water, and STILL no camera!!

driving along down brookside (my street) which is now mostly a street again, at least at our end (the other end, the way into town, is still under 4' of water for about 2 blocks), we saw a 24" carp flopping around in a quickly shrinking drainage ditch puddle... with a plastic bag and no camera (UGH!) and the help of a fearless neighbor with big hands, i got the carp (halfway) into the bag and carried to a pond nearby. it broke the bag (darn thing had to weigh 7 or 8 lbs... any other guesses as to how much a 24" carp would weigh??) and i had to carry its head in the bag and its tail in my hand (IIIIICK) the rest of the way, but it seemed quite happy to be in deeper water.

upon walking out to the mailbox to see if by chance the mailman still got thru today (NO), i found there are 5 or 6 little fishies swimming in the puddle around the mailbox post. my next project is to get them out with a net, and bucket them into our neighbor's pond! he will be glad, as most of his little fishies are now 2 miles down the road. i'll help him start restocking. i'll take pictures this time!

news pics of the flood in findlay




these are from comcast.net - taken wednesday, after a lot of the water had already started to retreat. i should have taken pictures of my brother's basement... with the electricity off, looking down the stairs and into the murky water was like a horror movie; the kind where a shark or giant maneating snake is circling in the 5' deep water, waiting to snatch you as you swim across to turn off the breaker box!!


signs



mom filled up her bathtub, this sink, and twice as many water bottles as seen here, when we heard they were going to turn off the city water. at least we'll be prepared when the aliens land.

puddy's awfully interested in the bottles... maybe she's an alien. also, notice the bleach off to the side. for cleaning the diptheria off our legs.

displacement

this would totally be better if i had a picture... but, my brother was walking (cant drive anywhere) and layin on the sidewalk was a big ole dead fish.

moxie learns to swim - the hard way

moxie appeared to be in the process of getting swept away by the river in our front yard... mama had a little meltdown and splashed to her rescue as she nearly disappeared into the bushes... no moxies were hurt or drownded in the filming of this swimming lesson.
