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!

Dinner and a Monk-a-thon...

Thanksgiving dinner with Tom & Al was great - Tom is an excellent cook.  The mashed potatoes were to die for - but of course, I forgot my camera - so no photos of the lovely meal.  (I borrowed the photo of the dogs from Tom's Facebook page...)  We even had homemade wheat bread!  These are their sweet rescue dogs: Cassie the rat terrier and mad French kisser, Duncan the smiling spitz and Suki the sweetie pie spitz.  They also have three cats: Daisy, a little seal point Siamese and her fluffy fourteen-pound husband, Chubbs and the latest addition to the family, Betty Grable, a mischievous grey kitten.  Aggie was invited, but had to stay home due to her bad behavior this morning - she got away from me outside and I had to chase her down.  No mean feat, believe me.  I am stuffed full of turkey, sausage stuffing, potatoes, corn pudding, homemade cranberry relish (just like my Grandma's!) and two kinds of pie: pumpkin and cherry.  Aggie and Peter got their turkey treat when I came home and we have settled in for the evening.
We're back to our Monk-a-thon - we're pretty much at the beginning of Season Three, watching the episode called Mr. Monk and the Girl Who Cried Wolf.  I don't know why everyone thinks he's so weird.  But that's just me.
