Will it Work with Facebook?

I dunno. I’m trying out an app to see if it puts a note on my facebook page when I publish a new blog post. So this is a test. 1, 2, 3. . . You know the drill.

This is Not Rescue.

(Posted on my APP blog page) So I was talking with someone the other day about a problem he was having with a neighbor. She’s feeding cats outdoors, which in itself is not a bad intention, but she’s creating a big problem for him. More and more keep showing up, and when they’re done eating [...]

Squeezy Puppy!

Stopped at the dollar store – saw this hideous thing – had to have it. . . It’s ugly. It’s filthy. It has an unpleasant texture. It’s a hideously unnatural color. But it gets worse. It’s filled with little bones. I was laughing so hard it hurt. Then Audrey made it worse – she said, [...]

After all, we didn’t get [...]

Drinking the Sarah Palin Kool-Aid

I haven’t been astonished at the reactions I’ve been seeing among certain people to the nomination of Sarah Palin. Honestly, there are still people out there who think that Saddam Hussein engineered the 9/11 attacks, that we need to fight terrorists over there so we don’t have to fight them over here, and that George [...]

A Sad Way to Start a Birthday.

For the past several weeks, I’ve been nursing a couple of litters of kittens back to health, with varying degrees of success. The shelter released them to foster because they were scheduled to be euthanized, but had the potential to get healthy if they got the kind of one-on-one attention that a crowded, busy shelter [...]

Change of Life. . .

Well, not the kind you might be thinking. That, unfortunately, seems to be a long time in coming. Life, though, is changing. I didn’t realize how much the crap with Smart Carpet was stressing me out. I still have a bit left to go, because they pulled up the laminate floors and laid the carpet, [...]
