Terrier & Hounds-tooth…(ha!)

*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* CLICK HERE***Maybe This Link Will Get You To My Tick Tock Channel*** No…..not the fabric pattern…..(Houndstooth…..get it?)….. When I was young…..we never considered brushing our dog’s teeth….. I don’t remember giving any of our horses any vaccinations either….. …..maybe in the 1950’s…..it wasn’t something you did?….. …..in the 1960’s…..I don’t remember worming anyone ever?….. Did those things happen back then…..?….. Were we remiss owners…..?….. …..I don’t know…..I don’t remember….. But that’s not the…

What We Do In The Summer…

What We Do In The Summer…

*******Maybe This Link Will Get You To My Tick Tock Channel******* It’s super hot outside….. So…..it’s easy to be sequestered in the air-conditioning of the house….. …..not a real hard choice….. …..it’s much like reverse-winter-cabin-fever….. But it can get boring…..

There are a number of things I “COULD” be constructively doing….. …..for example…..the tile in the bathroom needs caulking….. …..all…

Necessary Assecories

I’m not going to change the mis-spelled title…..(I was tired when I wrote it)….. When I went to school…..(in the Ice Ages)….. . ….they didn’t have categories or names for learning-disorders….. …..(I have successfully dealt with mine…..by myself…..with my usual/lack-of-compliance)….. …..I’m pretty sure I would have (& still do) comfortably slipped into several learning-disability categories…..especially when I get tired….. But with a little denial…..a smattering or ignor-ation…..and the magical world of spell-check….. …..I get by….. …..well…..Duck!…..that’s all I’ve ever needed……..

***Errant Terriers***

Oooooooohhhhh…..Terriers….. They are in a category all their own….. …..all their very own….. My older daughter’s Jack Russell is typical where “Terriers” are concerned….. …..he warrants a clothesline & a chain snapped to his harness whenever he goes outside….. …..otherwise he gnaws through it….. …..and after he’s finished gnawing through it….. …..he wanders…..and roams…..and vagabonds…..or basically just runs away….. …..things to do…..people to see…..treats to beg….. Earlier this week…..early in the morning…..while it was still dark….. I had let all…

~~~~~~~Happy Belated Ground Hog Day~~~~~~~ Punxsutawney Phil did indeed see his shadow….. …..sooooooo…..six more weeks of winter(?)…..(I guess)….. ~~~~~Punxsutawney Phil~~~~~ This has been a great winter to indulge in my semi-pyromania….. I’ve cleaned up the backyard…..and the front yard….. …..now I’ve started on the goat’s pasture….. This has all been a clean-up mission of two years of blown down stuff from all of the trees….. Unidentifiable mosses…Palmetto fronds…squirrel-decimated pinecones (just to get things rolling)…Spanish moss…just about anything I can get…
