#yardsheep

Yard sheep says Merry Christmas Eve. She was out in front but had to come up on the porch when it got damp. Phoebe got a Santa hat briefly. Taught my nephew euchre by the ladder tree. Proud of the “real” (not @duraflame like usual) fire; cat was curious about it. Took a walk downtown after eating all damn day (but boy was it some fine, fine snacking). #merrychristmaseve #merrychristmas #yardsheep #christmassnacks #walkingoffthesnacks #realfire #santahatonadog #havaneseofinstagram (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/charliehopper/p/CX5AvaKrjg8/?utm_medium=tumblr

SOCIAL DISTANCING DAY 461. Reappearances by (a) noisy noisy street department sewer work bang roar growling digger rumble bang roar rumble shake the windows; (b) the quarantine sheep! Marj brought the sheep out because on Sunday two little girls and a dad delivered this thoughtful note to the sheep. Nice of them to reference the day the sheep flew a kite wearing roller skates. #yardsheep #covidsheep #throwback #iknowwhatyoudidlastsummer #streetwork #noisystreetwork #quarantinelife (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQe-kLBLx_0/?utm_medium=tumblr

SOCIAL DISTANCING DAY 329. This morning Marj put “boots” on the yard sheep and set it in the front yard of @debsipeswebster1517 admiring their snow man because Marj knew today was their day to host their grandchild. Apparently it was popular to discover the sheep, and I happened to be looking out when they were bundled up and bringing the sheep home in the snow. #cozyneighborhood #yardsheep #neighborsgrandkid #admiringthesnowman #quarantinelife (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLIhLb_LIA5/?igshid=xuxhqvt3e4t9

SOCIAL DISTANCING DAY 266. Threw a Hopper Newsletter together. Mostly it’s sheep. If you don’t think I have your address *and* you want me to mail you one (shown are random mixed-up bits) you should DM me. I’m not kidding, it’s almost entirely the yardsheep. That was the news at our house this year. #holidaynewsletter #2020newsletter #DMme #yardsheep #yearofthesheep #pandemicnewsletter #familynewsletter #quarantinelife (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJH_p10LQvD/?igshid=18pd4fpabckp4

SOCIAL DISTANCING DAY 245. No new photos today so I just scrolled backward in my phone’s library ‘til something struck me. Marj made soooo many great costumes for her sheep this summer. Jeez. So many. Those are deliberately crinkled-up Kroger bags for the ears and trunk. That’s a table runner she inherited from her mom. #cleverdisguise #yardsheep #elephant? #notanelephant #latergram #quarantinelife (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIUYfApADdL/?igshid=6lpmfc2lfk36

SOCIAL DISTANCING DAY 196. Sheeple. Reclaiming the term. Just a cute political statement, a 3-D political cartoon by Marj. #sheeple #yardsheep #trumpeffigy #orangefacedbagofdirt #quarantinelife (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGOeihtgpxP/?igshid=f8jo8bfbx5l6
