Life...

so far this year my goals haven't worked out, well, I have kept up my reading but the photo challenges haven't gone the way I planned. Think I'll just wing the photos, currently I'm spending my Sunday mornings seeking all the Clearly People in Lakeland.

I'm also going to start a new blog, something very personal, a journey of healing.

December Photo Challenge!!

this one looks interesting!!

💖

new goals

going to try something different, well different for me. I love taking pictures; I am almost never without my camera nearby. I also love Pinterest and on that site I've created a board with "Photo Challenges". Most of these are for taking 1 picture each day of  the month and then posting them. Well, with my work schedule that's too much currently, so I'm going to adapt the rules. I plan on picking a photo challenge and with in the month taking the pictures. I'm going to do a test run in December, so for week 1, I'll take pictures 1 to 7 and week 2, 8 to 14...get the idea? I'll post them here in my blog and create a facebook album as well. Anyone else up to the challenge??

Here's an example, I did this Disney Photo Challenge a few weeks ago!!

the newest adventure has begun

I met him briefly on May 25, 2016.

He let me hold him, he was content, I watched him play and rough house, he showed his spirit, a true big dog in a little dog suit. I learned more about him and told him I would be back.

On Monday May 30th as we pulled into the driveway I saw him, I still couldn't believe he was going to be mine. But soon enough I was holding his leash and walking him away from the only home he'd ever known and he was fine; it was as if he knew I was his new home.

Early the next morning we started our journey home, he cuddled in my lap, we made pit stops with much success. 8 hours later we arrived at our first stop and little Hiccup won the hearts of his new grandparents. I will admit his new brother Harry wasn't too sure but not long after we got to our home Harry was fine.

It's been 2 weeks but it feels like Hiccup has always been here at home and in my heart.

A new journey

fingers and toes are crossed, tomorrow I could be meeting my future -legged little boy.
As much as I love my Tuxedo boy Harry, I miss taking care of a little sweet canine.
He won't take anyone's place there is room in my heart for another love.

sad day...

Button was born August 17, 2001.

She was just as feisty as any big dog in a small dog suit.

After 14 1/2 years she decided this morning she'd had enough.

Button died March 28, 2016

I know you are having a blast playing with your feline sisters, Rascal and Sweet Pea.

I will love you always.

I don't want to hear it...

Several things came to mind as I was contemplating blogging...

First this quote,

"The best laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft a-gley," or often go awry

Love Robbie Burns, yes I fully intended to blog more this year and yes I have but some weeks or days go awry...

My other issue is my muse, she's a wandering thing and doesn't like to linger, she prefers to flit about and dash in and out of my brain scrambling it!!
