First, a cute cartoon I was sent. Remember, dogs have owners, cats have staff. Next, a video I shot of the resident Owner, better known as Kikyo. I was about to get on my rowing machine for my daily workout, and she let me know she was bored with watching me. Cheers!
Hubby and I took a little spur-of-the-moment trip up to the Skagit late this afternoon, to see if the tulips were out in all their splendor. It was heavily overcast and threatening rain all afternoon. We saw minimal tulips, but we did see some new sights. Like this field of green veggies. And this really …
I'm privileged to have my birthday in April. I love being a Spring Baby, when the garden wakes up from its winter slumber, leaves and buds show up on our trees, and our chorus frogs begin singing in the holding pond across the street from our house. Last year, I planted a little Hydrangea bush …

Mine (the Baby Boomers) is the first generation of Americans to grow up with Disney. We went to the theater to watch Fantasia, Cinderella, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and all the other iconic Disney animated movies.

I have a bit of a problem with today's topic. It sounds to me a bit like "earth worship". I have always appreciated how God put us on the most beautiful planet known in the Universe. I appreciate how wonderful our planet is, and the fact that we humans are at the top of the …
I have a coworker who is at least as much of a cat lover as I am, possibly more. Everything she has, from her lunch bag, to her mouse-pad, to her desktop drinking cup, has a cat pattern. Here are two of her carry-bags she has at work. Cute, aren't they? That's all, folks!
Ooh, I love this week's challenge topic! Right up my alley, as I work in a factory which manufactures aircraft parts out of metals including stainless steel, aluminum, and titanium. My readers will already know that I love to photograph raw materials and metal shavings from the various machines and suppliers around the factory. So, …
For much of the past yer, I have been plagued with skin-splits on both my thumbs. I tried everything to get them to heal, but they'd just open up again. While shopping one day, I found the miracle cream that has totally healed my skin splits, and prevented them from coming back. May I heartily …
