Guess I’m getting better, at least I don’t spontaneously burst into tears at people I don’t know anymore but I’m just a sad and sorry lady with dogs on the brain… Sigh.
So, to make myself feel a little bit better, I thought I’d post a list of my favorite dog quotes:
~Phil Pastoret
~ Franklin P. Jones
~ Josh Billings
~ Ben Williams
~ Andy Rooney
I lost my smile yesterday.
I lost my sweet wonderful Walter to complications after emergency surgery. My heart is just going to be broken for awhile until I can think of him without crying.
Not much more to say other than he was the light of my life and put the smile on my face every single day for 6 years. Until yesterday when I had to let him go.
If I get to go to Heaven when I die, he had better be waiting at the gate for me or
Sleep with the Angels my Sweet Boy, Waltzilla, Big Guy, Big Fella, Sweet Babboo, My Darlin’ Darlin’. I will miss you every single day until I see you again.
Gotta go find the kleenex again.
Today is the 65th anniversary of Jackie Robinson’s debut, as a member of the Brooklyn Dodgers, into the all white MLB .
Sitting here on the couch, watching my Texas Rangers play the Minnesota Twins, with all of the players wearing #42 on their jerseys. Very cool thing to see, especially when you consider there are players from all over the globe out there…. Japan, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, even Australia for Heaven’s sake! (more…)
Are you in need of a new adjective to use while driving? Something special maybe, to satisfy that primal urge we all share, to harangue some idiot driver for some real (or imagined) bit of traffic brilliance that has hindered our own cherished forward momentum?
I have a great new word for you, guaranteed to keep you safe and secure from those pesky lip reading types driving around out there, especially if you smile when you say it! (more…)
Having a well rounded vocabulary is becoming more and more important in this age of OMGs and LMAOs. Not only does it show that you have a fully functioning brain when you exercise your vocabulary skills, it proves that you managed to make it past the third grade. That’s an important distinction to cultivate among your peers these days.
So I’ve started this new feature that I call Thesaurus Thursday, to help expand your vocabulary, until you beg for mercy. (more…)
The “Bound Cross” design features a raised primitive style cross stacked on top of a textured one to represent how we are all bound by sin that can only be released by the sacrifice of the cross. (more…)
The ‘Son-Burst’ cross design features an imprinted central flower with a dichroic glass fused sunburst. The cross itself is covered in an irregular texture with a silver and lavender satin finish, giving it a soft metallic glow of silver, lavender and a touch of iris blue. (more…)
This lovely glass fused ceramic wall cross is my new “Bound Cross” design that features a raised primitive style cross stacked on top of a textured one. The design represents how we are all bound by sin that can only be released by the sacrifice of the cross. (more…)
In my unbiased opinion, my Momma made the best lasagna. Period. Of course, she used to laugh and say that a real Italian would never try any lasagna made by a Minnesota yankee, especially if they found out it had Owens Country Sausage in it. My solution to that problem is to just not tell the Italian in question what ingredients are in it until after they. Worked with my very Italian father-in-law. Just sayin… (more…)
I love March. Not because of the wind, rain and tornado warnings of course, but because March brings the annual UT Arlington Glass Art Show! The show is put on each year by the students in the glass blowing program at UTA as a fundraiser and celebration of their elegant art form.
The proceeds from this sale are split between the artist student and the program and the students all help out for the day, doing demos, running the register and helping pack your goodies. (more…)
