Month: February 2011

I try to say them every day, even if I’m miffed. Michael got me a cake and candy; he is being a real sweetheart. I just gained an extra ten pounds this weekend.

The snow is slowly trying to melt. I walked around checking out the status of the drifts. I can’t walk anywhere off the driveway. The snow has melted to about waist level.

No worries! Spring is just around the corner and I am happily looking forward to a long walk on the back path.

Uriah decided he wanted to run. He took a leap into the snow and sunk. I had to dig him out. He wasn’t happy.

For day 14 of the Haiku Challenge the word is ‘LOVE’.

: Haiku Challenge Day 14Love

Love is a dodo

Chasing it won’t make it yours

Put out some bird seed

A flame that burns brightly

Will one day set fire to the house

You have to repaint

I noticed that the date of my Blog Posts is off-way off. What’s up with that? The last two were posted on the 13th …I hope this one shows it to be the real 14th…

Haiku Challenge day 13 grumble

Stuck in a tiny cell

Without food, water or shoes

Wonder what the rats think?

Hear the grumble of strife

Shuffling in corners and walls

Watch out the doors open!

My ring rolled away

In the grass, under a toadstool

Does a fairy have it?

Haiku Challenge day 11

I decide to be happy

I will walk and run for love

I wait for my angel

She will pick me up have faith

Rescue angels I am waiting-

I want a forever home-

Day 11…

I salute all those wonderful people who, on a daily basis try and save dogs like this one.

Shelter Angels Pit Bull Rescue out of Georgia, is just one of those organizations that try to find “forever homes’ for abused and neglected animals.

Here’s their link…http://bit.ly/5lLaYi

What group do you know of that saves animals? Post their link here, and on my Facebook page. They give faith out every day. Let’s pass them a little of our own, and a gigantic ‘Thank You’ for all their hard work!
