Squiggles

Squiggles

Lucy, Gracie, Squiggles

 Our foster furbaby Squiggles arrived at our house two weeks ago.

She came from the Almost Home Humane Society in Lafayette, Indiana,

 the same place where we adopted Gracie and Lucy from.

She fit right in.

Squiggles is about 8 years old.

She must have had a family at one time, because she is very well mannered.

But I guess, they did not want her anymore.

Taking three of them for a walk is a lot of fun.

I hope someone will see what a sweet dog she is and adopt her.

She deserves a loving forever home.

We are going on a big trip soon.

Can't wait.

Will tell you more later.

Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Easter

 Easter spells out beauty, the rare beauty of new life. ~S.D. Gordon

See the land, her Easter keeping,
Rises as her Maker rose.
Seeds, so long in darkness sleeping,
Burst at last from winter snows.
Earth with heaven above rejoices... ~Charles Kingsley

Raven's Roost

Lots of Fire-King

Raven's Roost is another vintage, antiques, and auction gallery in Lafayette.

Took a little stroll through there yesterday and took these pics for you.

Hope you enjoy looking at them!

It is a rather large place and one could spend hours there browsing.

They have a little bit of everything.

Well, guess what.

Another snow storm is on the way tomorrow. 

I have had enough! No more!!!...

Better enjoy the lovely Spring day we are having today.

Happy weekend to you! xoxo

S & S (Sushi & Snow)

Birthday lunch for my son Chris at Teppanyaki Grill.

So much food, so many choices.

I tried the Sushi and it was delicious.

And then we had another snow storm last week.

Lots of big wet snowflakes.

Luckily it is all gone again.

The above pics are at Purdue University and our back yard.

Still dreaming of Spring, hope it is just around the corner.

Wishing my friend Andrea from aaaandreaaaa's Creative Memories a speedy recovery.

Hope you feel better soon! xoxo

The art of making coffee

Hello you all! :)

.....

I haven't been around the bloggerland for a while; busy, busy.

I have started volunteering at the local animal shelter on weekends.

The same shelter where we adopted Gracie and Lucy.

And I will soon become a foster mother for a dog or puppy in need.

I wish I could adopt them all and give them a loving forever home.

.....

We packed up our automatic coffee/espresso maker and 

reverted to making coffee the old fashioned way.

And we love it.

So much more flavor.

.....

Meanwhile I am waiting for Spring.

I need sunshine,

smell the flowers,

warm temps,

open windows,

bike rides,

and, and, and.

.....

I will stop by your blogs soon to see what you have been up to.

.....

Have a great start of the new week.

.....

Awake, thou wintry earth -
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!
~Thomas Blackburn

Happy Valentine's Day!

Friends Forever
Are we friends,
Are we not.
You told me once, but I forgot.
So tell me now and tell me true,
So I can say I'm here for you.
And if I die before you do,
I'll go to heaven and wait for you.
I'll give the angels back their wings,
And risk the loss of everything.
Just to prove my friendship is true,
Just to have a friend like you.
by Sadie
