Alan passed a little over two months ago. We always expected he would go before me, and we planned accordingly. While he had every intention of living until 100, we always talked about what to do when he wasn’t here anymore. While his passing on April 22 was a surprise, … Continue reading →
On April 22, 2023, my best friend and husband left this world to prepare the next for my arrival whenever that may be. He always did his best to take care of me and help me. The face of the man I fell in love with in 1985. The man … Continue reading →
I’ve been far too long since posting, and, sadly, it’s another bad news post. In late 2016, my parents adopted two cats and named them Misti and Bella. When my dad passed away in September 2022, my mom decided she wasn’t up to caring for pets, so I brought the … Continue reading →
Daisy was the last surviving kitten from Zelda. She was a beautiful kitten, but she didn’t choose to socialize with us. We brought her into the house after she was spayed at six months, but she preferred to keep to herself. She was always near, but was not willing to … Continue reading →
It’s been way too quiet here. It’s not because nothing has been happening, and it’s not because I don’t have anything to say about what has been happening.

Most of us have made significant changes to our lifestyles over the last month. We’ve seen reports of reduced pollution of all kinds. We’ve seen wonderful ingenuity on the part of small businesses (survival instincts are strong), and we’ve seen signs of people in communities pulling together to help the … Continue reading →
When we found Jase two years ago, he was a mostly black puppy with a little tan and a light-colored underbelly. As he grew, he changed colors. Apparently, this is a known trait for German Shepherds (I only got curious enough to look it up yesterday). I thought the coloration … Continue reading →
Now that I’m finally able to shelter in place like a good Texan (what a week it’s been until now), I decided today would be a good day to mow as much grass/weeds as possible. In preparation for this, I checked the mower at the store yesterday. Yes, I’d put … Continue reading →
You probably saw my last post about Zelda, and that we hadn’t seen her for several weeks and had finally concluded the worst. I am delighted to report we were WRONG. Zelda is alive and well even if she is more avoidant than before. This makes my heart sing, and … Continue reading →
