So...What's Going On? Hi There. A Big Show N' Tell. Three Pups! Two Kinds of Musics.

 Three New Puppies at Jem and Amelia's Farm!

 

2 Little Black Puppies!  Yes, Count Them!

I Present to you Dear Reader....Harper and Leelo!


 

This contains an image of: They are very difficult to capture on camera together!  And they are very difficult to capture in all of their cuteness being mostly black!

A brother and sister duo cruelly dumped on a busy country road on the day of a bad hurricane!   Zuzu picked them up, they were probably all of 6 weeks old.  What kind of a person dumps little puppies like this let alone the day of a hurricane arriving!?   Hurricanes are not fun.  I've noticed that when the south is on the receiving end of a hurricane that there is not much notice but when some other states in other areas of the country get a hangnail, oh my goodness, it's the end of the world for them and much ado is made.  

 

Oh and That Lilly Tiger.....Lil Tiger!

This contains an image of: This adorable little lady also cruelly dumped, probably around 1 year old according to our vet just hopped in the car with our youngest daughter, Grace!    She was waiting in the middle of the road all by her lonesome and Grace almost hit her, she pulled over and it was like...."Oh, so you're my ride!  My new family"  She is a lovely cream and grey stripe.  She runs like the wind and is a sweetheart.   

 

 

I Love the Shadows and Light of the Fall

I walked into Grace's room to bring a lost item and I just had to stop and take the feel of it in.

This contains an image of:  Her walls are a lovely light opal blue.

This contains an image of:  She is not only a photographer but an artist also.  The white wooden desk was my dad's when he was very young.  The poor little drawers need a little work to get them to go in easily but they work!

The old green chest was my dad's and was already old when he was using it.   He attended school at Gulfport Military Academy in Biloxi Mississippi and became Captain there as a senior.  ...Oh the stories I have. 


Girls Just Want to Have Fun!

Following are pics of me, our daughters and grandchildren on a very fun day!

My Girlfriend

 

My girlfriend, Liesl.  She is my sweet friend, she doesn't talk behind my back, is never jealous and loves me just the way I am!   We take walks together.  I loved the autumn light shining on her here at nap time.  She is faithful.  People could learn from Liesl.


My Husband

This is Jem, my husband as most of you know...He's my bestfriend.  We really enjoy being together when we can when he's not working at our office or our farm.  



Now for some...

COMMON SENSE that is Kinda Funny But TRUE!  

...Actually pretty darn EXCELLENT.  Sometimes things happen and I feel like these two memes clarify very well:

...I've seen this movie before, unfortunately, people can be very insecure and just mean.  

    

This is when you walk away from that movie...Sometimes we must die to self and let them have the last word. 

 

 

Now For Some FUN!

I hope you enjoy this fun song!   I love the 40s as you probably already know Dear Reader, this is just so precious to me.  This a great sing-a-long to do things around the house...You could even whip up a dance routine as you carry your laundry basket or cook in the kitchen or exercise or whatever!   So fun. 

 The Nelson Brothers will come on at around 4:17 on this, they are something else!

Now For Something to Feed and Nurture Our Souls...

Janie, our eldest daughter sent this to all of our family this morning and I just thought this rang so true to my heart and just beautiful...When I heard this song...I knew...I must put this on my blog and so I thought...Why not today?   I try to listen to the Holy Spirit in my heart and I felt I needed to get this up today.   Many of us have things in the background, elderly parents, my son in law has a very sweet father with stage four cancer and life can be a real up and down.   If you are one of the few highly sensitive people as myself, you will know it is a Gift but also can be trying, we feel things far deeper than most and are keenly intuitive.

In closing, I hope you all have been doing well.  It seems  by the time I take my walk and do a load of laundry and compose a nice dinner I can barely squeeze my designing and sewing in...and throw in THREE new puppies!    

I made a delicious veggie soup this week, a sprinkling of lentils, organic spinach, some frozen asparagus, garlic and onion simmered in olive oil all in an Italian based tomato and basil broth.  Oh so good!   I served this with brown rice spaghetti on the side, everyone can place their amount of pasta in the bowl before ladling the soup over it.   Jem likes to sprinkle Italian cheese on his, I sprinkle Italian sheep's milk cheese on mine.  Bella!

Amelia,

How are you? Well, I know how you are because I read this post! 😂
There is so much here. First, adorable puppies! Thank you for sharing them with us. Second, I love that the headboard is a window. Third, the door has a frame around it like a picture! I LOVE IT! And that dollhouse red couch, wow, where in the world did you get that? I love all the pics here. Fun. It is good to see goodness.

I am still blogging and writing things. Beef stew soup is in the crockpot.

Good to see you!

What wonderful sweet puppies. They are so fortunate that you have them - as they will be living their best lives now!
Your family is gorgeous. Such sweet, sweet pictures.
I love the stoop where the boys are sitting - the wooden steps with the Coca-Cola logo.
Glad to see you post - you sound happy.
Doing well on this end and growing into myself more each day.
Blessings to you and yours.

Hi Sandi! So great to hear from you too! : )

I wish I could be credited with the framed door but that was actually a gift shop we were all at and the red dollhouse couch was at another gift shop with a little eatery in the back! : ) I agree though, I just love those things! Grace does have the window for her headboard though, I think it's neat too.

You sound like you are doing so good, Sandi. I'll have to stop in for a visit soon! : ) It sounds like you had a cozy evening!

Hi Cheryl, Great to hear from you. Thank you! We have fun together and it's a treat to get everyone's schedules to come together so this was a special day.

I like the way you put that: "...growing into myself more each day." Oh I so get that! Yes! Our youngest gave me a neat dark academia victorian bookmark that says something to the effect of...I'm only posing as an adult, I've got most people fooled! (something like that). Very few people see that care-free side of me.

I too just love the Coco-cola stoop, that gift shop is amazing! We spent over an hour in that little gift shop! The owner really knows what she is doing, it's in an original old house.

The puppies are fun and keep me busy, it's sweet, Lil Tiger watches over Harper and Leelo, we're suspicious that Lilly (Lil Tiger) had puppies, she had signs of that at first but then again she also has a tiny tattoo indicating a spay that was hidden under her fur. The vet's office called after she had been prepped for surgery so it's very confusing but she has been very motherly and also loves to play with the little pups and it's very entertaining and sweet to watch.

God is my anchor for sure, He has been good to me, I can't complain even through trials, I know He is yours too. God's blessings to you too.

Oh what a lovely and fun post! And such a great day out shopping together! I just love the new pups! So sweet and so glad y’all were able to take them in!

Good quotes and very true.

The pictures of the boys crack me up. 😂

What a fun song you shared too! It’s a great house work song to get you moving. ☺️
