Thursday Thoughts – April 20, 2023 Edition: Dogs Part 1

(PLEASE NOTE that the dog in the photo isn’t the dog about which I wrote here; I didn’t have a digital camera in the 60s or 70s.) Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about dogs. We have 2 of them, of course, and they each old a special place in my heart. But I’ve also …

VIDEO: April 12, 2023 – My First Laundry Of The Season!

I just love using my little portable washing machine, and have posted videos about it in the past…but just had to share how excited I was to get it all set up again this year, and enjoy the fresh air while I worked! This thing washes like a champ, better than the laundromat, and spins …

VIDEO (and photos) From My Day – Feb. 20, 2023

Another walk to the river across our yard with my service dog Maisie; using her and my walker I am hoping to gain some of the strength I have lost over the last couple of years, God willing! Besides the river pictures, there are also some pictures of Maisie trying to get my attention while …

VIDEO – Vlog #2142 Feb. 19, 2023: A Walk To The River

It was a beautiful day so I took Maisie and my walker and walked out to see the river from where we are now parked/living on the property, having never seen this part of it before. (But first, a minute of the silly turkeys outside!) This was a long amble for me, so I was …

Maisie’s New Chain

As I had mentioned earlier this week, Maisie loves chains. I had a very small one from a parrot toy that she took over (see Changes & Chains video) but it was, I believe, a choking hazard. So today I got her one that is much bigger – in fact, the same size as the …

Monday Maisieness – Jan. 2, 2022: Happy Birthday Maisie!

Of course, the date of her birth is only a guess. She was a rescue, and I told her story HERE. But she was in rough shape when she was rescued, having just had 6 puppies, no food or shelter in our Michigan winter, and having spent her life on a short chain that had …

Monday Maisieness – Nov. 21, 2022 Edition

These are some of the pictures I took of Maisie this month. The first two was when I was eating something that she thought she should share. Trying to eat with those eyes on me…I kept laughing. Then some pictures of Maisie in the yard – she LOVES being outside! – on some of the …

Photos of My Day – Nov. 18, 2022 – Winter’s Beauty

As we were out and about today I took some pictures of the scenery. Most of these are from the various back roads that we take to get to and from any main roads (yes, we are that secluded!) but I also have a few others. Click on the photo you see and that will …
