"Just because you have the emotional range of a teaspoon doesn't mean we all have." - Hermione Granger, Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix, page 459

Sorry, the quote just amused me for some reason.

This is cute. My 6 month old, 45ish lbs. dog puppy is trying to play with my 4 year old, 32lb cat. The cat HATES the dog and is growling, hissing and swatting her. The dog must have either seen this as some form of sign friendship, or for some reason, she thought this would help. The dog jumps in front of the cat, jups down to the floor and ( Read more... )

OK.. Here are the pictures I took today when we went to go visit Ehryn's grave. The people at Wal Mart were kind enough to have problems getting my picture cd burned, so I got it for free. Here ya go everyone. This is where my last baby girl was buried.

We can see them all, nothing major going on. Chris goes inside for a sec, as does Jamie to check on everyone and then they both come back outside. Less than ( Read more... )

OK.. I have had far too little to say that has been happy. Though I seem to want to rant today about my mother-in-law, I won't. Today is a good day.

Ok, this is going to be a short post. For those of you who have wondered why I have been so not myself the past few days ( Read more... )

The past week has been one that has totally changed things for me. I have so many people to thank for it too. Last Friday started out as every other day does, and started a series of events that have permanently changed me. Last Friday mornong, I went over to my friend Chris' house for a quick lunch. I had a great time. Right as I was getting ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I have had the time to sit and post on my own journal and reply to all of yours. I am sorry. With summer right around the corner, I find that my time is extremely limited. Much has changed for me recently. With the aftermath of MayParty(tm) comes the cleaning and in my haste, there was much that was unintentionally left ( Read more... )
