YUP! It's September And We Are BACK!

FINALLY, y'all get to see ME again! It feels like forever since I have gotten onto Blogger and been able to see all my friends here and you see me. But, now I am back!
So I spent the summer helping my Dad: build this little bench, plant lots of new flowers, trees and bushes in the yard, bask in the sun for hours at a time, tip a few Rum and Cokes, and eat enough to add an extra pound to my girly self. At times, we both were a little sad that our lady of the house wasn't around to nag us, but we managed to get by, somehow!

And we are both happy as can be!  Y'all know know what I mean?

Mom said she had a ton of exciting experiences with her kids and grandchildren, but the Pittsfield Balloon Rally was certainly one of the biggest highlights in New Hampshire! She has a number of beautiful pictures of the balloons. We may try and share some of those at a later date.

Mom got to spend a lot of time with her granddog, Charlie! He is the sweetest part Pit Bull she has ever met! I am just wondering, do you think he might be kinda a woosie since he is on his dad's (Clint) shoulders? Mom says absolutely not! These two guys just love each other!

Upstairs at the house Mom was staying at, lives Shadow. Hmmmm I think he is quite handsome! The little red Min Pin belongs to my sis Sherri and her husband Jim. Mom and her just fell in love with each other! (WHAT???)

Then there is Jake! He is another granddoggie that lives in East Aurora, New York. MY! What a big nose he has!

Here is Jake's sister, Mollie. I understand she is just a little love! HUMPH! Couldn't be anymore of a lover than I am! Just sayin!

All righty then, it's great to be back bloggin again!
See ya next week!

OWL Be Seeing You In September

Yep! It is a owl! But have you ever really seen a blue owl in your life? Apparently my Mom has! This bag is made out of blue and white "Plarn". You know, plastic bags cut into strips, used as yarn. It is also lined with an (nice) old blue T-Shirt. Mom is probably going to sell this at the communitie's craft sale this coming fall.

Now to tell you all why I will be gone until sometime in September.  My Mom is leaving today, to go and spend the summer up north; MA, NY, and NH. She will be able to spend lots of time with her children and grandchildren there! One of the reasons she is doing this, we just can't seem to be able to sell our house and move to NH!. The housing market is still just so bad, that we would lose thousands of dollars if we sold it  real cheap like some peeps are doing. The humans just can't afford to do that! So they have given up the idea for now. Dad says we may as well stay here! Mom????? Well I think you all know how much she has missed her family and dislikes the hot summers here. Sooooooo, Dad an Mom decided how to handle that problem for now, and just send her butt up north for the summer!!!! Now I got to make sure you all realize that me and Dad are going to miss her like crazy! I hardly see us two "bacheloring" with good results! Why Dad will probably not even clean the house till the day before she comes home or even do laundry often. I know I will get to eat my morning meal......but will he even remember my evening one?  He has NEVER given me a bath even! See what a predicament I am in? But.........I really need to remember.........and be strong.........this is for Mom's mental well-being! REALLY! She had just better send me some treats and toys from North Country!!! Maybe a little something for Dad to!

Now you all just remember how I look in the above pic, as I will probably be very skinny by the next time you see me! And......have a ton of dirty hair,  stink like heck, have very long nails, and be lying on my death bed!
Anyway, I do wish my Mom a very happy and healthy summer, just make it go fast!

Jeans Into A Purse?

Well, I guess I will give it my seal of approval............maybe.........just hope she never makes a purse out of ME!

PS: Would you believe the center of the belt is crocheted out of VCR tape? And you wonder why I worry about my Mom!

Daddy Wants To Play

I'm not so sure I want to play with him though!

As you can see, he is always hiding my toys from me! This is exactly why I do not bring them to him in the first place!
Happy Monday y'all!

It is now three years old, and doing so well even after some winter frost damage!
It was grown from a pit, for those of you that don't know.
Happy Wednesday All,
