Finding Our Space in Time
I’m watching ‘The Bridges of Madison County’ for the second or third time. The timelessness of the film brings thoughts of my mother and our life together.
As I watch the film, I’m hoping my mother and dad had laughter…strong and loud; just as Robert and Francisca did during […]

The years you live are defined by the directions you choose and the trail you leave. Our mind is our communication line and defines our attitude about those directions and the trail we leave.

Ageing is staying on the vine until you are ripe.

‘aging’ is : ‘the period contemporary with a person’s lifetime or with his or her active life b: along time- usually used in plural <haven’t seen him in ages>: an individual’s development measured in terms of the years requisite for like development of an average individual’.
I especially like the ‘along time’ insertion. […]

I do have a positive attitude most of the time… and to help it along, my day job demands it.

My greatest fear when hiking with Pieper or any K-9 off lead is that they may eat something that will harm them. Luckily most of my hikes are in the woods and there are less lethal things to get into. However, K-9s always have there noses to the ground searching for something to eat. That’s […]

Thanksgiving morning and the first thing I see is a deer out my front window. The weather is cool, mid-thirties and perfect for hiking. I’ve asked friends to bring their furry friends and arrive at 1 P.M. for a short hike before dinner; thinking everyone will be in to it.

First attempt: Pieper and I […]

It’s winter and in Colorado we’re having a dry spell. Moisture evaporates fast. I’m so grateful for indoor plumbing…turning on the faucet and having clear, clean and cool water fill a glass is wonderful! When I fill my glass, I’ve made a habit of checking my furry friend’s water dish.
Animals can loose all […]

Polar Bears are the earth’s barometer. They live in desolate areas: you would think human beings couldn’t reach them in such far away places. Not so. When I read that these incredible creatures are turning to cannibalism; my heart takes a plunge into the abyss! Their hunting territory is melting away. The Polar Bear […]

Good Physical and Mental Exercise is essential for a Happy canine. Our canines live in our world under restraints most of the time. Many humans put their furry friend in a fence and think that’s all they need. I have a friend who tells me that her next door neighbor puts the dogs out […]

Okay, I made a commitment to write a post every Sunday. I’ve been thinking all week about what I want to say. There are so many choices. I’m so glad you found your way to this spot in the universe. Thanks for dropping in.
What Are The Choices?

It’s Sunday morning and every time I’ve tried to […]

Every time I go to buy treats for Pieper my eyes roll when I look at the price! At Wag N Wash, a wonderful Doggie Bakery, Healthy Food and Dog Wash; their treats are over eight dollars a pound.
Treats are so easy to make. The quality of the ingredients are up to you; well your […]

My Blog Guru reminded me that its ‘Blog Action Day’ and if I want to submit something it had to go in today. Well, of course I did not remember, so, my answer is to put a sampling of different posts I’ve written over the past two month.
I’m having a wonderful time researching, writing […]

I’ve been present at the time of a family member’s death at least three times. Recently, while watching a television program, I watched a baby being born; the miracle of life, even from this distance, is astounding! I don’t think I’ve watched anyone being born for a long time. I can remember one of […]

Recently, my friend went to a two week 50th wedding anniversary celebration for her parents. It’s a huge celebration; her parents are re-marrying and as an ordained minister, my friend is performing the ceremony; creating a short film and presiding over the event. She’s been in an organizing frenzy for the past month or so. […]
