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 …

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 …
