about me
I love playing in the dirt and working in my garden, maybe some day I'll be able to post some pics. My mom says she must have let me play in the dress up stuff too long when I was a kid, because I love costumes! I don't have any "people kids" but refer to my four legs as my kids. Don't know what I'd do without the little hair balls.

Re: Can't sex a dog??? (in Dogzone) Just sad. Those folks SHOULDN'T have dogs, much less kids!

Re: I've got a skunk... (in Dogzone) Thanks for the info - I've got the peroxide and stuff handy for shampooing and have talked to the wildlife dept about renting a trap. Our animal control here absolutely SUCKS, tho. They will only take "domestic" animals. So what is a resident supp... read more

Re: I've got a skunk... (in Dogzone) I'd seen that recipe when I "googled" but wanted to know if it worked. Now I've got to figure out how to get the skunk out of the yard!

I've got a skunk... (in Dogzone) Living in my back yard. Of course, Sadie Mae wants to play with it and we've had several very close encounters but she's been REALLY lucky so far. We take her out on her leash at night now so she can't go roust the beast up out of the flower bed -... read more

Grumbly beast (in Dogzone) Just out of curiosity - are Border collies talkers? I know some breeds are much talkie than others and rat terriers really don't talk much - but Sadie Mae is half and half and she talks all the time.

I have GOT to have this day lily!! Besides the fact that I love the color, how can I resist the name?? I guess I am going to have to move some more stuff and maybe get rid of a few of my duplicate day lilies so I can make room for this one. The name sounds like it should be an OPI nail polish, doesn't it?

I can not believe I let my husband talk me into getting a puppy Sunday!! I really didn't feel ready for another dog yet - but there she was - last of her litter. So I'm now mom to Sadie Mae, a rat terrier border collie mix, and she IS really cute. Toby isn't real happy about the puppy but she's behaved really well considering how territorial she is. I think someday she'll actually play with Sadie. Two of the cats are really cool with her - they let her maul them and chew on their tails, but o... read more

My sweet baby dog made her final journey Monday. She suffered from serious health problems all her life-requiring several extended stays at the emergency vet's and daily medication-but her final decline was very sudden.
Terri was a funny, sweet, loving, gentle little girl to the very end. Her greatest joys in life were snuggling with us and getting tummy rubs, fuzzy afghans, chasing squirrels, playing Frisbee, and hunting mice in our back yard.
Little one, your suffering is over but your a... read more

Let the marathon begin! Planning on 8 batches of Spritz and 6 batches of pecan sandies - got to get 'em done so they can get shipped off to my husband's family. Guess I'll be up to my elbows in cookie dough for the next couple of days!

It's a done deal. We signed all the paperwork today - signed away basically 20 feet of backyard and 11 1/2 feet of flowerbeds, trees, privacy fence, and our shed. It was a long tough negotiation! Didn't get as much as I wanted for the trees and stuff, but I told them what the minimum I'd take was and we reached a middle ground that doesn't satisfy either the city or me - the subtle art of diplomacy - HA! So now I'm praying for a cool spell so I can move plants without them or me shriveling up... read more
