And I especially hate it because of having to turn the clocks back. That’s because this guy has no concept of daylight savings time!
I don’t mind having learned to become an early riser to make sure Graidy can get himself outside at the crack of dawn. But I do mind having to now get up at what feels like the crack of the-middle-of-the-night. Two weeks … Read More
A dog-loving friend sent me this photo of her Halloweenie dogs.
I also get pictures of them in Christmas costumes. This friend doesn’t have 2-legged children, so her dogs fill some of that role. Any dog would be lucky to call her their dog mom. What she accomplishes with her rescue pups is truly amazing!
While I always get a giggle out of her photos, I’ve never thought about dressing up any of my dogs. So I’m curious–

Sunbear Squad has asked that I pass along this message: Please spread the word to anyone who may be thinking about rehoming their dogs or cats. Never advertise your pet on Craiglist (or anywhere else for that matter)as “free to a good home.” Sadly, Craigslist, in particular, has become a magnet for mentally ill animal abusers and dog fighters who torture and kill pets.

I recently had to go through my photo files for a work project, when I quickly got waylaid and spent the afternoon going down memory lane. In no particular order–lots of happy memories below…
A white tail deer, half hidden in the tall grass behind our second pond, is munching on an early morning breakfast.
This mama has two kids and they live back behind those trees. They’re part of our wildlife family that shares this land. I’ve gotten to know their schedule and routes through the property as well as I know my own. As I have with the foxes, coyotes, rabbits, herons, geese, ducks, turtles, and sundry other 4-footeds. Even the dogs … Read More

Cait: “Look at this! They’ve changed everything! I don’t like it.”
Amanda: “Oh yeah, it’s that new flat color look.”

Amanda yelling at me as I run from the room, “You early adopter, you!”
I come back with my phone and ask Cait how to get the upgrade, since … Read More
