the SMARTEST Girl I Know !!!

If you are lucky enough to be LOVED by an animal/pet, then you are a Blessed Human!
Ariel came to us @ 9wks., lil fat, waddling baby! She has become what I wanted -- a "lap" baby. (I was so hurt n lost after C.D. passed away ~ it only took 3mos. to Need another baby!!)
Twice recently, this smart girl has alerted us to "problems" that need attention in this house!
#1 She kept standing "attention" in the Laundry room, barking.Since there were none of her toys back there~~~Puzzled me....finally!....I stopped to investigate. There it was all along -- that "spewing" noise~~ I've heard too many times. (plastic pipes in this place, pop--get "pin" holes, and have to be fixed quickly.)
Found leak in the Wall, behind the washer.!! Dead on, Smart girl.  :)  Thankfully, Marc came and did the work for us and fixed that problem.
#2  This is nasteeee--but we're fighting a rat problem --worse this yr. Living in the woods, go figure!
Ariel has a "BAD" habit --if we don't catch her/pay attention to the "signs" -- she tends to do her pee inside....ICK.  Noticed she was hanging out in the kids "playroom" too much. (However, in her defense, there was not any NoNos to see!)
I caught her today --standing attention once again on the right side of the TV center!! Hmmmmm....ran her on out and investigated.
There it was ...ratty damage to wall and a dead body! UGH. Don't know if Ariel "smelled" it somehow, or was just nosy as to WTH that head was, sticking out of the wall!! (there was NO smell to us)
Lamar took care of the problem.
This girl, Miss ARIEL, is the Smartest girl I know. She is always on her "guard" @ all times to let us know when something is amiss!!
And......she protects our home when we're away.!!!!
  *ofcourse, this is AFTER she strows her food allll over the floor, in protest of being left behind!!!!!!* Ariel has "abandonment" issues....poor thang!
I  LOVE  this lil girl ~~ Ariel brings much Joy, Fun and Love to us.
Hope you have a Friend like that, living with you!!!......
   LOL  :)

Porch BABY....

Image
Walked out on porch this morning, enroute to my car. Noticed a bird, perched on the top of the screen door. Upon further inspection-----it was a BABY! It's lil feet firmly attached to the screen and backed up into the corner as tightly as possible! I tried thumping the screen to "shoo" him on...didn't work. Then, open & closed door...didn't work. It would just squeel sorta! and remain in place! I went on outside (w/camera, ofcourse)...no movement frm that attached stance. It's lil feet were firmly attached. I tried prodding gently w/broom handle....nothing! I knew it was a baby, it's lil eyes were only slightly open. Went back on porch and put on my softest gloves. Went out and gently removed it frm it's perch grip....boy did it fuss at me loudly! I know it was scared. Took the fella out and tried to place it on a bush limb. When I let go....it flew....not well, but it did fly off. It came back toward higher branch & lit there. Aft...

the "REST OF THE STORY"......

Image
I did soooo Love Paul Harvey. His stories were always so interesting.....and, he researched to bring a story to an often unknown ending. The "rest of the story" always let ya know.....the circle was closed on that topic for him. In that fashion....I wanted to do this blog. I love photography. I'm quite a happy amateur! Now, with Pinterest I get to see unlimited talent. This picture was one that "drew me in"....After I pinned it.....there were like 30+ other people who loved it too! This picture received the most pins on my boards. Just look at it....Never did try to track down the photographer. Only went as far as where the pin originated. Browsing pinterest boards is a fun pastime. I enjoy "following" pictures/quotes and such as far as I dare. In browsing.....I "fell into" a site. The photographer is TIMOTHY WALKER. A very eclectic range of photos. Behold! There was this picture among them. I gasped! (He has several other photos...

MEMORIES.....of Evonne

Image
Isn't she beautiful? Such an ol' soul w/a very sweet spirit about her. This is a difficult blog to write....LIFEtime/Sista friend, and "Auntie" Evonne. It is one I must write for me. Tears already falling....it's still very raw. We spent so much quality time together thru our years. Friends, school chums, and then....she married my Uncle Herman. Wow! Now she was "legally" a member of our family. How wonderful! Our lives were so intertwined....and will always be that way. There  simply is no way to express all we shared in this blog! Evonne SHARED so very much w/me. At the top....her dear Mother....Miss Louise. Miss Louise was a friend, mentor and 2nd mother. She treated me as her own daughter. I MISS her so very much, and now, I MISS Evonne, too. As Donnie said....it SUCKS!! Evonne also SHARED her beautiful daughter--Bonnie, and her 2 grandkids. I am unable to clearly express the love and fun those 2 kids have brought to my life. All 3 of them w...
