Welcome!

I've finally decided that I am a writer - all the other things I do just pay the bills. Someone eloquent once said that if you do what you love, the money will follow. Well, let's just see about that.

RIP Aggie

RIP Aggie
Aggie was my fifteen-year-old cairn terrier - or maybe I should say I was her 55-year-old person! She was my faithful companion, spoiled rotten and I am still trying to figure out what to do without her.

Peter the Cat...

Peter the Cat...
This is Peter the gingersnap tabby! He's seven years old and has just been promoted to Peter the Very, Very Good. He is working his way up to Peter the Great...

Bee is Peter's buddy. He's eight years old and has made himself right at home. I guess cats really do come in pairs or sets of three!

And Jasper makes three!

And Jasper makes three!
Jasper is our new guy - the Cat From Another Place. He's four years old and we think he likes it here - so far, so good!

I've come to the conclusion...

that over the past year I've been living my life thirty days at a time.  Worrying about paying rent, paying bills.  Instead of thinking, "Good - I don't have to worry about that for another month," I find myself thinking: "Okay, now I have another thirty days to worry about that."  Not productive.  Not conducive to accomplishing anything of substance.
I just can't do it any more.
Smart man, Abe Lincoln.  Shot in the head in a theater.  Terrible way to go.  No one is sure if Mrs. Lincoln enjoyed her evening or not.  So on the advice of our sixteenth President, I've decided to stop worrying.  Well, maybe not completely - but about things that really matter.  Like this guy here.

 Or the end of life as we know it.
Or other possible threats.

  1. Great outlook! We can't live happy with worry in our spirit. Abe gives good advise.
