Birthday Lake Weekend

Before all of the Covid-19 started, our name was on the lake house calendar. We decided to still go. Since I have been working from home, I left Thursday afternoon. I had cooked my brother dinner and baked him a loaf of bread. I also stopped by my parent's house to give them their loaf of bread and I got a delicious strawberry cake for my birthday. I my have eaten almost the whole thing by myself. Don't judge. It was breakfast, lunch and dinner for a few days.  Indy is not use to me sitting in a recliner. She did not like the fact that she could not sit beside me. After lots of pacing she decide there was room enough fro both of us. I worked some Friday morning. I had three 504 conferences via Zoom and a staff meeting and then went for a walk. It's one hill after another so no running. this is the view I had from the top of one of the hills I climbed.                                 ...

Chemo

  he's so rotten. She had her fourth Chemo treatment yesterday and is feeling good. The only lymph nodes still enlarged are the ones behind her knees.  So happy to see her playing again.

Lady

This precious dog came up to Cody's house one day and wouldn't leave. We posted her pictures on the lost and found pages on Facebook and had no luck in finding her owner. He finally brought her to my house. We waited a few more days with no luck. I named her Lady and she would just hang out on the back patio all day. I finally had to make the decision to take her to the Little Rock Animal Village. I may have told them I lived in the city limits so they would take her and she wouldn't go to the county animal control. Little Rock Animal Village has a great reputation for not euthanizing animals. They find adopters or put them on transport north. I cried all the way home. A week or so went by and I saw a video on FB of them putting dogs on a transport to Wisconsin. I saw her getting on. I was happy she was finally going to have a forever home, but I still wanted to check on her. Guess who called the Madison County Animal Shelter! Yep! Me! I gave them a rundown of ...

My Sweet Lou

Found out last week that my sweet Lilly has Large Cell Lymphoma. She started her first round of Chemo (single agent drug) today. I'm going to see how she does and decide whether or not to continue the treatments. I sure will miss her when she is gone.

Beauty School Dropout

We danced to Beauty School Dropout. Such a fun dance. We all wore our hair crazy. I've not taken in a few years and really miss it.      

Escape Artist

My sweet Lou was an escape artist. I got a message one day from a neighbor saying a yellow dog was trying to get into my chicken coop. I rushed home from work to find Lilly running around the year. I walked around the fence looking for places she may have dug out (that's what she always did at the rent house), but couldn't find any. I turned the cameras on a watched the recorded footage. She somehow managed to spread the fencing apart, heave herself up there, and slide thougg the whole she made. This picture shows her sliding her body through the fence.   This is a close up of the hole she created.   Worn out!  

Snake in the Coop

Let me begin by saying I hate snakes, like deathly afraid of them, like I don't even like looking at pictures of them. So I freaked out when I opened the coop one morning to get the eggs and this snake greeted me with an egg in it's mouth. Yes I know it's not a poisonous snake and I probably should have tried to relocate it, but I was scared and it was eating my chicken eggs. I was wondering why they all of a sudden weren't really laying eggs anymore. This is why. They were getting eaten before I could collect them.     I purchased this day bed frame from Wayfair for the office. I managed to get it put together.
