Goliath has returned!
Posted by doggonedmysteries
I am enjoying the new look on my blog. Several people have told me that they like it too.
I have two frogs in my pond. Yes, the pond is still there since we haven’t a clue as to how we’re going to fill it in yet.
I was outside talking to my next door neighbor when he told me he heard my frog earlier. I told him I accidentally discovered that I have two frogs.
I thought we only had the one until I was pulling aggressively growing mint from the little river between the waterfall and the pond. I startled a familiar looking large bullfrog, and he was not the one I knew we had who I could see sitting on a nearby rock.
I am enjoying the frog songs.
You all have a good one!

New look!
Posted by doggonedmysteries
I felt the page needed a change. I hope you enjoy the fresh paint.
Oklahoma needs plenty of good vibes from us all. Light a candle, say a prayer, do whatever you do to send them.
The people there need kindness now. I’m sure there are many clothing drives and other things we can donate to, to help out.
Skip your expensive coffees this week and send what you’d spend to the Red Cross, ear marked for Oklahoma tornado victims. Every little bit helps.
Or you could donate your coffee money to the animal rescues who are trying to reunite victims with their beloved pets.
Be kind, be generous, do for them as you would want done for you in a similar situation. Remember, it could have been you.
You all have a good one.

Picture day Tuesday

Supervising the making of the toast.
Bow, bark, bow…”Sissy play with me!!!”
“No napping, let’s play some more!”

That’s a wrap!
Posted by doggonedmysteries
Had a good time with Annie at the Holistic Expo and came home with a gorgeous silver and amber ring, and a lovely amethyst geode.
When we left there, we were starved since we hadn’t had any lunch. We headed to one place nearby that always has good food at a great prices but they were closed. Dang, I forgot they weren’t open on a Sunday.
Decided to make a mall run then since we knew all the restaurants out there were open and I had promised her a decent lunch. Albeit a late one.
Found some new flip-flops on sale…silly ones, with pink flamingos on the straps. Skelemingos would’ve been more fun but they’d never have that.
You all have a good one!

Didn’t win the lottery so I have other things to do…
Posted by doggonedmysteries
Years ago, I attended a Spiritual Holistic Expo here and planned to go again the following year but dates were changed and it has coincided with my Pennwriters conference ever since.
Tomorrow I am going. Since I’m not at the conference I might as well enjoy the Expo. Plus, in the same building, at the same time, the Innovative Beads Expo is going on. Wow, a twofer!
The Curmudgeon is encouraging me to go because he knows how unhappy I have been about missing the conference.
You all have a good one.

Play it or not?
Posted by doggonedmysteries
Powerball is up to a record high. Do I buy tickets or not? I think I will, no sense at all in not giving it a shot. I never go crazy on buying the tickets–unlike buying tickets at the PW conference for baskets.
What would I do with all that money?
First, I’d buy a house that I liked near water ( a lake, a beach, or next to a good fishing river) not his parents old house.
Then, I’d hire someone to take excellent care of The Curmudgeon and the pups for a month while I go on a vacation to some luxury spa on a beach.
I would take care of my friends and my cousins.
I’d hire a trainer and get myself totally fit and healthy.
I’d set up a fund for BTs needing rescue and care.
I can dream can’t I?
You all have a good one!
Missing Pennwriters
Posted by doggonedmysteries
If this were a normal year, I would’ve arrived in Pittsburgh yesterday and be enjoying the company of my many Pennwriters friends at the Pennwriters conference.
This is not a normal year. The Curmudgeon has had seizures and because of that I stayed home this year. I feared being clear across the state with no one here to check on him.
I got rather snarky with the MS society recently. I think it’s good I did. I am beginning to get some help that I wasn’t getting before. I should have done it sooner. If I had, I would probably be at the conference enjoying my four-day working vacation.
To all of you people attending the conference this year. I desperately wish I was there. I REALLY NEED A VACATION!! And most of all, I miss everyone!!!
You all have a good one!

Lucious Lilacs.
Posted by doggonedmysteries
Two steps out the back door and the marvelous fragrance of lilacs overwhelms me. Heaven. I have miniature lilac bushes some in the front of the yard and some in the back, and then I have a regular lilac in the side garden. All are in full and heavy bloom.

She’s tired…oh, so tired…
Posted by doggonedmysteries
I went for my first walkies in the Rose Garden Park this year. My feeties are sore and I am very tired…but I am happy too. I had a good time with Momma, and Aunties G and Annie. We had a girls day.

Malcolm, he was my heart dog…
Posted by doggonedmysteries
Every once in a while a pet comes into your life and strolls directly into your heart to stay there forever. This is my heart dog. He lives in my heart as much today as he did for the thirteen years he was with us.
Thank you Maggie Burns for this wonderful dog who blessed our lives and sits forever in my heart.
