Here I go again…two posts in one day.
Silly me, I did a post on cats today and then I found out it’s National Dog Day! So I created this image. 🙂
Once again, Happy Sunday! Oh, and Happy National Dog Day. Woof woof! Give your furry one an extra hug.
It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and for today take a look at how great cats are!
I love all animals, but this past week cats seemed to take the spotlight.
I‘ve been reading the book “The World According to Bob”, the second book by James Bowen about him and his cat Bob. I lost track of the book for a while and had been searching for it looking in and under everything. I even looked in the fridge & freezer in case I put it there absentmindedly. Well I found it…right on my night table shelf by my bed. It had been there the whole time, but that’s another story. 🙂 Continue reading
It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and….well for me reminisce about the past week.
Do you ever do “staycations?” The trick with these are that since you are not actually gone, you are still constantly thinking about what you have to get done. Those stinkin’ daily tasks. Well I decided for this staycation that I was going to get those stinkin’ tasks done first, the ones that HAD to be done, and then focus my attention on having fun!
Before the week arrived I made a point to contact a few friends, let them know I was going to be off work, and made plans with them.
I took a bunch of pictures but because most of the people in my life are pretty private people and prefer their picture not be posted on the web, I had some fun with the pics. As you may know, I love to edit pics and turn them into some sort of “creation.” This is what I did with the pics from this week that I would like to share with you.
The first pic is actually in Norway. Some of my family flew there this week to see my niece who just had her first baby. 🙂 They have been so awesome with sharing pics with me throughout the week it has made me feel like I am there with them. The building to the right is the Strand Hotel where Roald Dahl (author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, & BFG) used to spend his summers writing.

I have the week off of work. I have some fun plans with friends to come but first gotta take care of some boring stuff.
With Cino as my helper it sure makes the boring stuff a little bit more fun. 🙂
It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and consider extending a helping hand for a family & their dog.
I know this is a different kind of Sunday post from what I normally do but helping animals is my mission. When I read the post an old coworker had out there about her dog, Mack, I felt I had to try to help.
Her dog has been taken from her family and is currently at a boarding facility because of some incidences of him getting out of the house or yard and running up to people or other animals and scaring them. Continue reading
Two posts in one day, not something I do often. But when I realized today was “National Friendship Day” I wanted to share a pic of my best friend.

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, grab a cup of coffee or tea, and take flight with a butterfly.
BUTTERFLY WINGS
Oh you beautiful butterfly
Those wings can take you oh so high
Oh to have those butterfly wings
Oh what joy they must bring
Oh butterfly with wings so great
Can you fly beyond the golden gate?
Please find my dear beloved sis
And give her a big butterfly kiss Continue reading
My heart literally breaks for animals and how they are treated in our society by so many. And my new favorite word for anyone that I hear or read about that hurts an animal is jack***. You see, I’m not one who curses, but that seems to be a favorite word of mine lately.
Is it because I’m older and less patient? Is it because my sister passed away and I’m more sensitive? Or maybe it’s both. Whatever the reason I wrote the following short poem to express some of the emotions I have been feeling (swear words not included 🙂 ).
We are their voice…stay strong!
It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, grab a cup of coffee and read a little story…a little dream tale.
ONCE UPON A TIME…
A princess had been working hard at her day job and on her blog at night. She was also battling a bad cold so she was extra tired when she went to bed that night. Thoughts were going this way & that way in her head and soon she was in a dream.
She heard about a horse that had ran off and his family, who lived in Canada, was very worried. There was a sighting of the horse and the word was he was last seen standing in the middle of a parking lot. The parking lot was in a strip mall in the town the princess had grew up in. She knew this area well so she drove down there to try to help.
Meanwhile the family heard where their beloved horse was so the man jumped in his car and took off to go and get him.
Back at the strip mall the horse was now standing in the parking lot frozen like a statue. Continue reading
Animals Are Feeling Beings Too
