~ Dogs, Cats, and Flowers...OH MY! ~

Hello...So glad I get a chance to leave another post... Well all is doing well around these neck of the woods, Pete is doing fine, he is back outside..... recovered good. I took Barkley my Basset Hound to the Vet. he has heart worms, So now he is in the house stuck in the dogie kennel for 30 days..He's out just long enough to go to potty and get a drink of water...poor thing. Because he is getting what they call a short term treatment to get rend of the heart worms..He'll go back to the Vet. and get retested, once the test come back negative he will start taking his heart guard tablet once a month... Now I have kittens also, to batches of them.. A total of seven kittens..What am I to do! LOL Help! One has already got a home once it is big enough. But I still have six more, and two Mama cats that needs to be fixes..FOR GOOD! I called about cost..Well another problem,,EXPENSIVE!

! What A Big Sucker !

Yesterday "My Boys" Aaron and Austin... Bought me some flowers for Mother Day..

The School was saling flowers and vegetable plants to students and teachers to give for Mother day...They do it every year..I Love it..BECAUSE I GET FLOWERS... They have so much fun buying flowers...for me..They are so over joyed when they percent to me with their bundles..and I'm excited too, because I love flowers. I went and pick them up and brought them home and planted them in my flower Bed..

Austin picked out the vegetable plants and Aaron picked out flowers.. Austin said that we needed a Garden...So we have some tomato plants, zucchini squash and pepper plants too.. Aaron got two snap dragons plants, Begonias, and another one I'm not sure what it is.. But it very pretty...The blooms looks like little roses...Very pretty..

~Pete is in recovering~

Hello...Everyone...Remember my last post I made..I mention about Pete getting hit by a truck. Well I had to take him to the Vet because he started collecting fluid on the area where his leg
was hit..He is doing fine now, He stayed in the Hospital for four days. We went and picked him up today, we were so happy to see him, I don't know who was the most excited, him or us...He was trying to get in my lap, he was like Mama! Mama! I missed you so much...
He has some stitches and couple of drain tubes..He'll go back next week to have them removed..he has to be confine in his kneel for a week, he can be out just long enough to potty that's it..He is not one bit happy about it either, but we have to follow Doctors orders.

~Bless with a Blessed Day~

Today was a pleasant day...Even though the wind was blowing extremely hard. We had 13 kids today...Tomorrow we will pro bally have about 15.... Alot of kids you say...We have good kids there is two that are very trying kids. But they are all sweet. When I got home from work, I cooked a big pan of Enchilada, and some Rice to go with it...YUM! I will take some for lunch tomorrow. I need to watch what I eat though, I am putting on alittle bit more weight,... It's all going from the waist down, more in my waist though. Last Friday...I went to the Dollar General Store, and bought me one of those Gnome, for only10.00....He is so cute..I set him upon the bricks that line my flower Bed...That needs for flowers in it....I better get going, need to get to Bed, got to get up early for work...Hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday at Home........while I'm at work rounding up kiddo...Thanks for stopping By....God Bless you all.

~Gone, but not forgotten.~

I lost a dear friend yesterday, As I write this post, my eyes are filled with tears of sadness. It's just not the same without her near, she was my little shadow...she went everywhere I went...she loved to play the staring game....she showed her love to me, and I did the same to her, we were truly buddies. We went to flea markets together, to yard sales, and to visit my Mother and so on. Whenever I left to go somewhere, I would returned home to a girl, that acted as if she hadn't see me for weeks. She would climb up my legs, carrying on, until I bent over and put her in my arms, and then she will shower me with kisses..I'm going to miss those times with her...I loved her so much.

Of course, I knew this time would come one day...but not now...she should have lived at least another 10 years or so.... she wasn't 5 years old yet. She had a lot more living to do...We never know what tomorrow holds for any of us...We are never promised a new day....None of us...For our animals either..Love them while you can...because you never know when you will lose them...I love all my furry babies...some seem to hurt you more than the other, when they pass on.

I buried Ginger in my flower Bed, so I can have her close...Me and the boys made a tomb stone for her...I have a photo of it, thought you like to see it....

We only have three dogs left, Only one in the house now. I often think about the others... Pete our biggest dog got hit my a truck today, while the Boys were taking them for a walk..he pulled away from Austin, and ran into the road as a truck was passing by..the man that hit him had stopped to see about him..."very surprise" all the ones I 've lost the suspect would just keep going, not very considered at all. Pete is doing o.k. just got a bad sore leg...hard for him to get around though...here are some pictures of him in the house to recuperate..I gave him a nice bath and a clean bed to sleep in...He is getting a lot of TLC..

Thanks to everyone for stopping by.....

~Saddness among our home~

We losted a dear friend today....Our little Daisy girl, was hit by a car...we were so heart broken...She will be greatly missed by all of us. She was such a sweet little thing. I had just talked to her and loved on her, just minutes before she was killed. We are so glad she didn't suffer like our little Gretchen did. I didn't even realized she was outside, I was in the middle of cooking dinner, and the kids were watching T.V. She was the type of dog that was out the door before you knew it. I was trying to figure out how she had gotten out. When I called mom and told her what had happen, it dawn on me.... that when I sent my "Son" Austin out to give the Rabbits some veggies, that's when she went out the door.

Hello, Dear friends...Stopping by today to leave a post. I went by to visit Cheryl.. At Cheryl's Places. She had giving me this beautiful reward the lovely Blog reward... Thank you so much Cheryl for giving me this reward..I would like to incourage you to go by and visit her, she is a wonderful and very sweet lady. Just stop by and say hello. I would like to pass this along to more of my dear friends out there.

~Spring is in the house.~

Hello, Dear friends....
I am up tonight on my computer. I needed to get some stuff done on line that I have been putting off for a couple of days now...
One was leaving another post on my blog...So, here I am. I would like to share with you some things that I am doing in the middle of working during the week. Next week the Boys are out for Spring break...I'll get to have two days off next week, Thursday and Friday, Hooray for me! Hope to get some stuff done...Which I know I will...I still think sometimes I'm suppose to have everything done, before I say I got things done....Not so. Life isn't perfect...I keep reminding myself of that daily.

The wind has been blowing like crazy, making it hard to get outside to do anything..it's suppose to rain this weekend, hopefully I can get up early enough and get outside and pull the weeds out of my flowerbeds that I have in my front yard, before the rain starts to ....if not there will be other days.

I am reading a Book...I will also share that with you too. I love to read about the Amish people and how they live...Their life is so simple and they are so dedicated to God and their families...The Books that I read are fiction,but they still have a lot of truth in them how they live and survive...in the Amish country..The author of the books that I read, usually have relatives that are Amish, or they have friends that are Amish...I love to read. I am very simple in heart and spirit.

Here are some Photos for you to enjoy... I have put out a little Easter decorations,also some herbs growing in some pots,and I have some Dahlias bulbs growing in a couple of flower pots also. And again Please enjoy...God Bless and have a great Day..






















I would like to share with you a really funny Photo of Ginger and Tom "One of our cats.."apparently Tom thought Ginger was nice and soft, He decided to plant himself right on top of her on our recliner...I just had to have me a good laugh when I saw this.

Hello, Everyone...I decided to leave another post tonight. Today was a Good day at work. Today was a beautiful day...I had a chance to be outside with the kids, at work. The birds were singing, and the air was neutral. I love my job. The kids

kind of grow on you. I feel like they are all mine. I love everyone of them.

Well I better go, getting tired.

~ Stopping in to say hello.~

Hell0, Everyone... I am so tired right now...I am about ready to hit the sack, If you know what I mean. But I decided since I was on-line checking my e-mail... I would go ahead and leave a post.
So here I am...Today was a tuff day at work, seems like Monday are tuff. The kids are more trying. Getting back to the routine, of things while being with mom and Dad over the weekend...
I am ready for Spring, I want to dig my fingers into the dirt, and fill my flower Bed with beautiful flowers.
Well I better get to Bed, I need to get some sleep..big day tomorrow.
Thanks for stopping by. God Bless you all.

I like it alot myself..because with the bar, I have more storage space. when I'm done with I'll take photo of it, "I still love the cottage Look..I'll probably never get tired of it.." I went Saturday night to Wall-mart to buy a pint of paint to do the top, I painted it a blue color, the color is called "Cloudless Sky" I think it very I think it's very pretty.

~Christmas is just around the corner.~

***********************************************

Thanksgiving is behind us once again, and now Christmas is just around the corner...So much to do and so little time to get it all done. Well,let the stress Begin..LOL

My week off from work is about to end. I will be returning Monday morning..with a smile on my face, pretending I'm happy as can be..at the same time dreaming of home, of what all I could be doing at that moment..Oh well, life must go on...right.

I would like to share some pictures of my Christmas decorations, I didn't put out a bunch this year. I gave a lot of it away to our Christmas Bazaar, at our church. I'm not into a lot of stuff, The reason being is because I like the simple look... The quote that you all have heard at least once in your life time...Less is more. I like that. Only if I can convince my husband and kids...

The church is a Dept.56...found it at Salvation Army for a great price,still in its box,marked $79.00...I paid $10.00

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving, We spend it with my brother and his family...Mom and Dad too... Hope you all had a wonderful one too! God Bless...

~ A trip to the Pumpkin Patch.~

Hello....So glad to actually have the time to drop a line to say,Hello. I have been doing good, and so is everyone else. Been working and trying to keep everything in order at home... Dirty clothes keep piling up as quick as I put a load on to wash. Haven't mop in about two weeks, LOL.... But,to tell you the truth, to me it doesn't really look that dirty, am I in denial or what? LOL It's funny how things don't really worry you as much as they use to. I do keep the house clean, it's just not spotless...And I let things go a lot more than I normally would....I'm through with trying to get everything done at one time...LOL,not gonna happen,never will. Enough about house work...it makes you dull..LOL Here are some picture of our trip to the pumpkin patch it was so much fun.. Enjoy...

Here we are setting up for a nice picnic...














Went on a nice hay ride...My nephew waving at the camera.. Austin on the left turned to look and Aaron down in the corner on the right, with a red shirt on, bearing can see him.


Family Photo, Jon couldn't be here..he had things that needed to be done...
Almost the whole gang...

Kids playing on the hay stack...
