Three strikes, you’re out!

Monday, October 30th, 2006

Okay, I’ve now made three unsuccessful attempts in getting Shadow the the vet.  I just don’t understand – he was so much more well behaved than I would have ever expected when he got his first shot last month.  Exactly what happened that he wants no part of his carrier??? Saturday, I had a plan.  [...]

I heard they had 9 lives…

…but no one told me they had 6 senses! Yup, he did it again!  Shadow managed to avoid yet another attempt to visit the vet.  This time, I decided that I would try to take him – hoping that with Brian and I both there, maybe we could calmly pick him up and place him [...]

Am I not the cutest…

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

…little thing you’ve ever seen? Well, my dad wouldn’tve agreed with that yesterday afternoon when it came time to get me in my carrier to take me to that evil man that sticks needles in my bum bum.  I said “Uh, no!  You may have fooled me once but you are NOT fooling me twice!”  [...]

Phew!

For some reason, I’m no longer being notified when someone posts a comment on my blog and lately, I’ve been feeling like I had a “cyber-fight” with all my “cyber-friends” and that you’d all left me. Upon further review, however, I see that my half dozen or so faithful followers are still out there so [...]

Neglectful

Monday, October 16th, 2006

That is what I have been.  We spent so much of our summer working in the backyard that I didn’t realize how neglectful I was being to the inside of my house.  Sure, the bathrooms were kept clean, dishes were done, laundry okay, vacuumed weekly, etc., but when it came to cleaning?  Nope, I was [...]

Here are the latest photos of my golf course! “Backyard_13″ And the front of the house, decorated for fall: It was a beautiful, sunny fall day so it was pretty bright so the picture didn’t come out great but you get the idea!

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear…

…Jamie!  Happy 1st Birthday to you! Last weekend was my friend Crissy’s baby girl’s first birthday.  Isn’t she a cutie?  Here she is with mom: (Crissy, don’t hate!) 

What I did on my summer vacation

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

Or should I say what I did on my summer vacation and most every weekend therein! We spent most of this past summer redoing our backyard.  After we’d started, a friend suggested I take photos along the way so that is what I did. At the beginning of summer, my backyard sort of looked like [...]

Just a quick “How do you do?”

Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006

I’m really, really, really trying to post here at least once a week.  I know.  I know.  I missed last week but I also forgot to tell you all that I was on vacation last week and anyone that knows me knows that I stay as far away from computers as I can when I’m [...]
