Oh I'm glad Jojo is starting to think it's fun! Pups should always enjoy car rides. :-)

Driving Miss JoJo
When we adopted JoJo, she was nearly 9 months old. Although she was a very well-cared for puppy before we brought her home, she did have a rather unusual beginning to her life. We knew she would always be a "special needs" dog . . . because she wasn't socialized in quite the "usual" dog way. ...
As someone who grew up near Pittsburgh, I've known it's great forever! I'm glad other people are finally figuring it out as well.
P.S. Did you ride the Incline???

A Perfect Little Getaway
I headed to Pittsburgh last Friday to visit Erin. (This was the view from my hotel window. That's the Cathedral of Learning on the nearby University of Pittsburgh's campus. You can see it from everywhere in town.) Erin moved to Pittsburgh 4 years ago - right after she graduated from college...
I like this approach, and like you, may have to start using it myself. (And OH the snag on the favorite clothes thing is the best!)

A Bevy of Misfortune
When people ask me about my daughter, Erin, I usually describe her as unusually perceptive . . . with a unique worldview and a wicked sense of humor. She's also an excellent writer with a quick wit. And . . . she has a rather volatile temper. (Ahem.) (She also loves dogs.) I used to worry...
Oh, my I do love those earrings, both pairs ...

God bless Derby and all of your family. It sounds like she had a wonderful life, which is really all any of us want, so good for her. A lucky pup!

we'll miss you...
Derby 1998-2014 She came to live with our daughter and son-in-law the week after they were married....they were married on Derby Day (a rather sacred day if you live in Kentucky!) She welcomed two babies into the family---and protected them as if they were her own pups. She eventually los...
HA! We have a lot of the same things on our list. As for the asking for directions thing, my husband never wants to turn left ...

Honey, Let's Just Stop and ASK Someone
It was such fun to think about divisions-of-labor last week . . . that Carole has us doing it again this week. Only in reverse! I asked Tom to help me with this week's list . . . Ten Things I Do That He Could Do -- But Doesn't. Here's what we came up with: Laundry Tom: Sorting? Folding? ...
I enjoyed the show too (gotta get my post up later), and agree with a lot of your list. I also though Jared Leto's tribute to his mom was beautiful.
I love Bette Midler, period. She is an absolute hoot on Twitter!

At the Movies
I don't usually tune in to any of the "awards" shows on television, but I watch the Academy Awards (or The Oscars, as they seem to be called now) faithfully each year. Truth be told, I love the red carpet! (Although I do like the movies, too.) So, Sunday night found me hunkered down in front...
We have a red front door - part of what made us want to buy our house!

Go, Red!
If I had a favorite color (and I really don't), it might be RED! This week, Carole asks us about our favorite things that are RED. Here are ten things on the top of my list: 1 - Little hearts! Just love 'em. Especially when they're red! 2 - Roses! Although I like roses of all colors...
I'm glad Dick is well - and I hope you have reassured him that ice fishing is not an Olympic sport ... :-)

excitement turns to trepidation….
Dick (the goldfish) has been in the dumps since football season ended. Maybe it was all the bowl games that got him hooked on the sport. Was he waiting for the Fish Bowl? Hard to say. I think he ended up with a perfect "bowl" record, however...whatever team he rooted for--lost. (Obvio...
Been there, done that, hope to not do it again tomorrow or EVER!
But you are correct about it all. Congrats from one survivor to another. Here's to long lives!

I Am . . .
Five years . . . Five years ago today, I woke up early and headed off for my final chemo treatment. I've celebrated February 4 every year since . . . as the day I truly began to think of myself as a "cancer survivor." (My oncologist marks the day-of-diagnosis as the anniversary date of "survi...
I do love letters and mail!
I signed up for this as well, and am hoping it will keep me writing throughout the year.

The Art of Letter Writing
February brings the Month of Letters -- a challenge to write (and post . . . by regular mail) one letter or note or card each day in February.* This challenge is fun for me . . . because I love Real Mail. I love going out to my mailbox and finding a letter or a card inside. (This doesn't h...
Everyone always complains about February, but I like February - it's short, and it has both a holiday and Valentine's Day. Whereas, January goes on forever. Christmas is over, and there are 31 loooonnnng days ...

Three Things on a Thursday at the Tail End of January
Join me in welcoming the Tail End of January (the month that seems to never end). (My neighborhood - totally suburban - used to be a farm. We still have a barn. Right down the street from my house!) Three things on this Thursday: It's time to sign up again for A Month of Letters. Take the ...
First of all, YAY I finally figured out how to be allowed to comment!
I think this is a most excellent choice for a word. It is truly something that can be part of every single day in so many ways.

One Little Word . . . 2014
2014 marks the fourth year I've taken part in the One Little Word project. I love choosing a word (or - maybe - having it choose you!) . . . and then seeing what happens as a result. This year, it's all about . . . I'm really looking forward to . . . making possibility . . . more visible in ...
This does a native West Virginian's heart good. :-)
LOVE the socks!

Country Roads
Soundtrack today . . . (This one is from a John Denver tribute album that is totally worth a listen!) Earlier in July, when I was up north for a week at our cottage, I started to knit a pair of socks for my mom. She had picked out the yarn (Lorna's Laces Solemate*) and I picked out the patter...
