Welcome to my world!

Welcome to anyone who may read this.

Here you will find my thoughts, feelings, happenings in my life, stories about my animals, joys, sorrows and whatever else may be going on around me. May my musings bring you happiness or laughter and if anything I write helps anyone that is icing on the cake.

Remembering my Parents

My Parents were the greatest in the world. I miss them both deeply.

My Father was my best friend, my support and my rock. He stood behind me in whatever I did - right or wrong. He loved his children, his home, his yard, the family pets, reading and visiting with 'the guys' at a local watering hole. He spent years growing beautiful roses. Daddy, I'm sorry I didn't get there sooner.

My Mother, who passed away so young, centered her life around the love for her children, her God and her home. Until her passing she was the safe harbor in my life. We always had a 'standing date' on Friday nights to watch "Dallas" on TV. I had just turned 27 when I lost her. I did not have enough time with her.

Someday we will be together again.



I love you Dad & Mom

Another day...


 So another day is almost over with a new  one about to begin.  It is 12:54 here.  And once again I feel compelled to finish my day on the computer.  Had to make a stop over at PN and read all the new comments about Fats.  I have to compliment Alice on how well she is holding up.  I'm never that strong.  I'm learning a lot from her and she really inspires & impresses me.  I do so enjoy all her pictures. 

Poor Thelma is taking the loss of Louise very hard.  She won't hardly come out of her house.  When I was holding her tonight she would either just bury her head under my arm or struggle to get away.  I didn't want to stress her out any more than she already is so I just put her back in her home.  I did move her cage into a different room where there are more piggies so she can at least talk to them.  I feel so bad for her. 

I talked with one of my best friends tonight, CMM.  She always straightenes me out and keeps me laughing.  She understands me so well - I think we were twins in a different life.  I have some hard decisions to make in the next few months and she always knows just the right thing to say to me.  Her and her husband recently moved to a small town and they have deer in their yard.  She took one of her cats to the window to see the deer and the cat went crazy - tried to break the window to get at the deer.  WATCH CAT ON DUTY!  We were wondering if it were a full moon since her cat wigged out tonight and Nicky did last night.  Since the full moon is still several days away we decided they must have spring fever.  I know I do.

For about the last 13 years I've battled depression.  It all started when I was an Animal Control Officer - the dreaded dog catcher - and dealing with some difficult parts of that job and then when I lost my Dad I pretty much fell off the deep end.  I have finally weaned myself off my happy pills and actually feel pretty good.  But I sure cry easy now.  At just about anything and everything.  I've always been a crier but when I was on anti-Ds, for the most part, I was on a pretty even keal.  Not anymore.  All I do is cry now - maybe making up for all that time that I didn't cry unless it was something really bad.  Even movies that I've watched 100,000 times make me cry.  Tonight I watched The Black Stallion and bawled like a baby.  Go figure........

Well all the kids have been fed and put to bed - guess I better do the same.  Bless us - every one. Night
