The Cutest Babies

I think that baby Pigs are the cutest. My Dad raised pigs when I was a kid, so we had these babies around alot. That is why I started my pig collection, (not real pigs) which quickly grew to almost take over the house. Every year when the fair comes, I have to go see the baby pigs.


This is Kingsford...

When the rescue ship comes, I'll tell 'em:

My companion is my husband, of course, so I would just say," bring my Grand Daughter & tell my Son where we are, so he can visit, & I'll be fine..."

2009 Internet Fools' Day

April Fools' Day pranks that I've seen online? None, don't know, don't care!! Never been a fan of pranks or slapstik type comedy, something usually gets torn up or someone is embarrased, I really don't find it funny. I just look at it as one day closer to summer.

I get my news from the Internet

My answer to: What is your prefered medium to recieve the news? Why?


I prefer reading the news on the internet or sometimes watching a video if it is something that I'm really interested in. I find it easier to access the stories that I want to read about. I can't count the times someone has asked me, "did you see that story in the paper?" I always say no, because I don't read the paper but I have tried to find a story after they tell me about it. The paper never has the articles where I look for them. It is like going to the grocery store and the peanut butter isn't next to the jelly... (that's another story) Sooo, I try to look in the little index to find where this particular article might be, and they hide that too. It's like finding Waldo...

I don't really care if there are no more newspapers, other than for the employees working for them that would lose their jobs.

My answer to: How would you give away a million dollars?

I have actually thought and talked about this several times. When I get an extra million dollars, I will travel around the US, on the back of a Goldwing behind my husband of twenty-three years, to big cities and small towns taking in the scenery as we ride all the back roads. We will visit a small diner in each place that we stop. We will enjoy each others company, and take in all that the community has to offer. Before we leave the diner we put a $1000.00 bill under one plate for the tip. Picking out the 1000 waiters would be the greatest part. It would make their life a little bit better, but it would make ours 1000 times better every time.

Naughty Little Monkey

My answer to the question, "What is a children's book title that makes you nostalgic?"

Curious George, brings back memories of my children, when they were about 3 & 5, cuddled up with me while I read to them. They "read" as much as they listened by looking at the pictures and making up the story as we went along George's adventure. Lacy would say, "He is a naughty monkey!"

I Demand That The Driver In Front Of Me Get Off The Cell Phone

I Demand That The Driver In Front Of Me Get Off The Cell Phone
Also if your standing ahead of me in line (any where) I know you think you can multi-task, but you just can't !!!

Hershee




As some of you know we recently were blessed with 40lb., bouncing, baby Chocolate Lab...
Her name is, "Hershee" ( I had to spell it different from the other 9million chocolate labs named "Hershey") ( Other thoughts, Dove, Godiva, Girradelle sp?)
How and Why do we have this new bundle of joy, you may ask...Billy (who is not our animal lover) found her, trying to cross 122nd street. He called me & asked what he should do with her...She was covered with ticks and looked like her whiskers had been burned off. But, he said, "She is just so darned cute" I made an appointment at our Vet, he took her to get her shots and to have her checked out, then took her to Petsmart to have her bathed, and then brought her to her new home. He was right she is sooo cute. She is at that very awkward puppy stage, where her feet seem to be the biggest thing on her. She came right in, jumped up in my lap, turned over on her back & just layed there grunting. I was hooked. So was Brylee, as you can see in the pictures.

It is a good thing she is so cute, because she IS NOT housebroken.
This morning, I had cleaned up the 3rd pee spot & I took Brylee to the bathroom to do her hair. We came back to the living room, & both of us about fell over from the smell, (Not just pee this time) So I took her over to the spot showed it to her, told her "No" & put her outside. I put out the water bucket for her. So while I'm cleaning up poop, Brylee is asking me over and over, " Did, Hershee poop!!?" "Let me see"
She is very fascinated with poop right now.(?) So I get it cleaned up, clean the pee spot too, and the whole time Brylee is saying, "Oooo it stinks!!" Yes, Brylee "it's poop" I find the fabreez and used half the bottle, finally it's done...I go to the back door to let Hershee back in, & she is laying in a huge puddle of water (really mud, since she tipped over her water bucket and it mixed with all the dirt on the back patio) She is covered in mud, so, I come back in and get a towel, I tell Brylee that I will be right back, I go outside & towel Hershee off, she covers me with mud because she thinks I'm playing with her. When she's dry enough, I bring her back in the house and I look at Brylee & she has drawn all over her face and neck with a pink marker!!!!! I take her (Brylee) to the bathroom to clean her up (thank goodness it was washable marker) and when I walk into the living room there is another PEE SPOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I called Dan to have him remind me how cute she is, (Hershee, not Brylee) well maybe Brylee too, at that point.

Well, I least I'm not bored!!!!!!!!

Peace to all,
Grammy
