Two Question Tuesday

Two Question Tuesday


1.) Can you juggle?
No, I don't think I can juggle. I haven't tried it in a long time, but still don't think I can.
2.) What talents do you have?
I can crochet. I design crochet patterns. I can make jewelry. I can draw reasonably well. My husband tells me I can sing, but I'm not certain I'll claim that one. I am an excellent baker. I am a talented cook.

Homeless Pups Get First Class Treatment On Virgin America's Operation Chihuahua Airlift

A Thought For Thursday



Operation Chihuahua

Who can resist a good doggie rescue story? My family adopted a dog from our local shelter. Isn't she cute? She stole our hearts. I highly encourage people to take a few hours and spend time at your local animal rescue center, even if you can't bring one of the animals home. They relish the attention they get from visitors, as some live their whole lives in the shelter.

Dream Big

A Thought For Thursday

Barbara Mattaliano Goes From Nanny To Co-Founder Of World's Largest Wild Rice Company
   What an awesome story   Dream Big, Folks. I am so glad I gained the courage and showed the commitment to follow some of my dreams this past year. I am also thankful my husband supports me in chasing those suckers down and wrestling with them until they start to fall into place.

Feedback about Three Rules

I have received strong and wonderful feedback about the book from some of its first purchasers. I have made more than one person cry. I know - making people cry would usually make me sad, but in this instance it feels incredible!

A Thought For Thursday
  HAPPY HALLOWEEN The 23rd Annual Halloween Dog Parade held at New York's Tompkins Square Park

 You can find the entire article here:   Dog Parade


Apparently this parade caused controversy over whether or not it is appropriate to dress your dog in costumes. What do you think? Is it cute or humiliating?
