It’s true, last week was pretty blah for me, but, today… I found the cure. It’s these 3 guys…Westly, Pops & Hunter. Pops loves to take these two monkeys to the park on Saturday mornings. I felt like today, Bubba & I had to show up unexpectedly and invade their “boy” time to join in […] Read more…
Fabulous Friday
Using the word “fabulous” in the title is my secret way of trying to uplift myself today. Sorry, I’ve been a slack blogger this week…I kind of have the blahsssssssss….. AND I can find no reason why!

Spring-like Morning
(warning…if you’re town/house/state is still under snow, this could be depressing) Today, on our morning walk, Pops and I noticed that the trees are starting to bloom all over town.

New Garden Shoes
I’m not really a “shoe” person per se. Well, at least I don’t think so. The last time I was really, really excited about shoes would probably have been in my teens when I was getting a new pair of toe shoes for ballet class or tap shoes for tap class – and even then […] Read more…

Summer (Garden) Dreamin’
We had a simply gorgeous day here in Northern California. After Pops and I took our baby Bubbaloo for his morning walk, I spent some much needed time working in the yard. When I say “much needed”, I don’t mean that the yard necessarily needed work but more that I needed the time out there. […] Read more…
