As I am working, Zowie is outside un-banking the trailer. She is 17, and has done this task for the last couple of years.
She lays out the plastic so as it can dry thoroughly. In this way, we can reuse the plastic again next fall when we re-bank the trailer.
She tries not to break any [...]
Buy Cheap Conditioner

Also indoor cats:
Pixie, who is two. She needed a home.

I have six cats.
The first three are adult males, and we took them in so that they would not end up at the humane society when they were kittens. They only keep them so long, then they put them down. My poor heart couldn’t take that.
Pixie’s is only a couple of years old. She is [...]

Some of you may have been wondering where I have been. A lot has been happening in my life as of late:
I had been sick with the flu, and then it just wanted to hang onto me with fatigue for days afterward. Not good. It hurt my legs just walking the same 2.5 miles that [...]
