Dogs are our link to paradise. They do not know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring–it was peace. –Milan Kundera

It usually involves lots of sun, soft padded resting areas (generally a couch or bed), counter surfing, greetings that involve walking between a human’s legs (the height of the human matters not, nor does their choice of attire, i.e. a skirt), goofy behaviors, goofier looks, flipped ears, and more affection than one could ever hope for.

Trash-A-Rama October 22, 2008

Filed under: Reflections on Life in General — Lynette @ 11:16 am

I have been wallowing in trash bags. Like a crazy, doped up fool, I volunteered to run my kids’ school fundraiser this year. We sold trash bags.

Yep. That’s right. Trash Bags. In fact, these trash bags.

For three days straight I have been sitting at a table waiting for people to come by and pick up their orders. I am heartily sick of white, yellow and blue.

Need any trash bags? Call me. I can hook you up in a jiffy.

In the mean time, I might just suffocate from all the plastic. At least the blue one is big enough to bury an average size adult in.

 
 

Marine Man October 21, 2008

My niece is dating a young man who chose to serve his country by joining the Marines. He was home for a couple weeks in September and she sent me this picture.

I’m so proud of him (and her for sticking by him) that I just had to post this photo.

Two Tired Mutts October 17, 2008

Scooby & Sydney, tired after a long, hard day of playing together. I looked down from upstairs and grabbed the shot.

Too, too cute!
