The New Edition

Since Bob’s death, I have had a huge hole in my life.  I mean, here was this extraordinary dog who was awesome in so many ways, my mornings before work revolved around him, and I knew he would be there for me when I came home after a bad day. While Harry is also still…

Attack of the Killer Bunny

Me: “Did you clean your room?” Indigo: “Yes, I did.” Me: “Did you get the stuffed animals away from the rabbit cage?” Indigo: “Yes, they are all put away.” Me: “Are you sure?” Indigo: “Uh-huh.” DJ: “YOUR RABBIT ATE AN ELEPHANT!! All that was left was an ear – AN EAR!!” Indigo: “He also ate…

folding mini-comics over beers Magnets on the beer cooler at the local bar My coffee.  After I took it, I read this quote and thought it was appropriate.  This is where “there’s an app for that” is appropriate as I did it all on my iPhone. Julia – the Jersey Giant Posing pussy. Blossoms –…

10 Thoughts for Tuesday

No POD yesterday – because, i was, uhm….busy….distracted, if you will. Instead, I give you Emmy’s 10 Thoughts fo Tuesday 1. Why must I fill out a 5 page permissions slip for a field trip for DJ? I am being asked info that I don’t think I could answer without calling her doctor’s office.  So,…

POD – Classroom Pet

This is our chinchilla. In her hand is a banana chip. It’s funny listening to her eat it because of the crunching it makes as she eats it one tiny bite at a time. She has been spending time at school lately – being DJ’s classroom pet.  She has been handled so much now that…

POD – Penny

Ms Money Penny – the chicken……my daughter was letting my niece pet her.  And being the inquisitive chicken she is, she was enjoying the attention & the little creature petting her.

POD – Pippie

This is our chinchilla Pippie. She is about two years old and lonely.  Her cage mate died a few months ago. And I think she misses the grumpy old girl.  DJ often frees her from her cage, and they read together with Pippie usually zipped into her sweatshirt.  DJ claims that Pippie has made her…

POD – A View into Saturday

Definitely an autumn morning…..overcast, hazy, and cool. And leaves starting to turn. This picture was taken at 7:30am – before the first soccer game of the season. My kitty G taking my picture – my hobbit impression – he got a litre of a good beer. I felt like a hobbit.And I realized he needed…

Wednesday Ramblings

I had several blog post ideas started, but I got distracted last night while trying to write….so you get Emmy’s ramblings. –> My cat decided last night to bring me a live mouse. She was carrying it around by the scruff of the neck only to set it down to play with it, then catch…
