New Hair

Life is a circus as usual around here. Ellie has been sick most of the fall, this week it is pink eye. We are gearing up for Halloween and as you may have noticed I have new hair. My hair has always been blond so this is all new. I suppose people will assume I'm smart now, I hope strangers don't come up to me in the store and ask me math problems. I better start carrying a calculator just in case.

Have a great weekend!

Bye Bye Birdie

The little Tufted Titmouse has a new home.
Which leaves me thinking about the birdies in my nest.
I savor the quiet moments while I can.

Princess Cheese Drives a Car

Happy Sweet Sixteen Birthday to my favorite (and only) niece Alyssa. I was there when Alyssa was born and have always loved teasing her about how she looked like she was covered in cheese when she was born, but now she is 16. Wow, I must be old. We love you Princess Cheese!

Ruby Dinosaur Bones Wonder Pants

Ruby Dinosaur Bones Wonder Pants is a big name for such a little kitten, but it suits her perfectly. Last week the kids and I were in a park in Youngstown when a cop pulled up and started talking to a business man who was eating his lunch. The cop opened his cruiser door to and kitten mewing could be heard for blocks away. Someone had put a box of three week old kittens under a bridge in the park.

Ruby was the first one I grabbed and the one we immediately decided to keep. She is a lot of work being so small, but we love, love, love her.
