T-Day at The Aarons

Revis and Deb have been friends of ours for several years and it is always a pleasure to go vist them. They live near Daytona, FL, 2 1/2 hour drive, on a large parsel of land, you can even shoot the guns and NO COPS!!! Star loves to run free and I think she fell in love with Revis because he's always doing something outside and she's following right behind him. until she got a sandspur in her paw.
We had a great dinner and good conversation, Star was even allowed to sit in her stroller buy the table. Dave, Deb's brother-in-law, kept coming to the other end of the table just to feed Star turkey. We all had a wonderful time. Thanks Deb, Revis & Toni

Fall is Here

Fall is here and I'm counting the days till we get to see the fall colors while traveling up north. I hope to find some Indian moccasin when going through the Cherokee Nat'l Forest. We're also going to Danial Boone Forest, at lest to Williamsburg KY. We will be traveling interstate part way but the scenic roads between Atlanta & Sweetwater TN. Then to Jim & Linda's and on to Bev's. On the way back will stop at Chattanooga, Wildwood GA, stay overnite around Macon then off the interstate and go to Waycross GA, then to Revis & Deb, stay overnite then HOME!!

Wendy will be staying at our place and take care of the 3 cats.

Check out the photos I've added to my albums on PICASA

Gone Tankless

I got my pantry at last.

When we moved the kitchen to another room and put the hot-water tank in my pantry, Craig promised someday, when they got cheaper, we'd replace it with a tank-less water-heater.

Five years later, that day has come.

Now we are putting in a reverse osmosis system to the ice maker and the 75 gallon fish tank we're setting up.

Have a GREAT FRIDAY 13

Ring of Babies

When Bobby was living in Gainesville, in this most beautiful home with a pool, I plucked this two leaf palm plant growing out from the side of a large palm. I planted it and not thinking in about ten years it would grow and do so good. Will now it has babies!!! They are ALL around the trunk. I've never seen one reproduce like this one has. We was talking about move it because it was in the way of the screen porch & AC. Now we really have to dig it up and move it so it can spread way out.

Linda Left!!!

Linda is standing by our Grandpa/Dad. This photo was taken in 1918 and is still in the original frame. We're sitting on the bench behind the print shop in Ybor City where we played, or hid from Grandma, as kids.

I was great to have Linda here awhile. We got to go back in time. Visiting with high school friends, and going to places we lived & played at as young kids.

Star says don't leave me out!!!!! I loved have my Aunt Linda here too. When we went to bed last night Star went to Linda's bed looking and barking for Her Auntie. I had to show her Linda was gone and she finely came to bed.

DOGS

I'm in my computer room and Stars barking.

She starts going crazy with her piercing bark.

I go to she what the fess is all about and this is what I find!!!

The damn dogs across the street with my garbage!!!

There's garbage in four other yards!! I grab the camera, get a couple photos, look for life, other then dogs, but can't see none.

I'm looking for the animal control number when the old man

comes out. I go out, slam my house door, 'cause now I'm pissed, and the old man says to me, I'm sorry, we'll clean it all up, we're goin' get rid of the dogs. Of course I watch to make sure they clean it ALL up. The skinny younger guy & his Fat mean bitch wife ( I watch her chase him around the yard with a GUN) was out there with gloves on picking it all up. People like them give poor dogs a bad rap. I can't understand why people want pets and then just lock then in the back yard and show NO attention or love.

LOVE, HUG, & KISS your PET DAILY

JUSTICE FOR FEE

For those of us in Florida, who know and love Fee, we have spent this week in court loving & supporting her.
It was very difficult to watch her go through the trial.
Having to relive the brutal rape and tell strangers what happen to her.

I know women that this has happen to and they would never go through a trial.

Fee is a strong young lady and did GREAT!!!!!!!! We are all PROUD of her.
The guy was found GUILTY on all charges and is looking at 30 years.
He also has two more trails, starting Monday, for attempted rape on other women.

I love ya Fee!!!

Justice on its way!!!!

"Federal Department of Labor is trying to get an injunction to stop the Vocational Training Program at Laurelbrook" (laurelbrook trailblazer)
They go to court on May 14 & 15. I hope they get in all kinds of trouble for thier SLAVE LABOR ways. When I was at Laurelbrook I worked 8 hours and went( if lucky) to a so call school 4 hours. I went to LB web site and OH MY GOODNESS, I seen a girl in jeans WITHOUT a skirt over them. I see, like all christians, even Laurelbrook has LOWERED its standards.
Ellen G White must be rolling over in her grave. I remember getting FREE LABOR for rolling up my skirt & showing my knees when I went out with my Aunt Louise & Uncle Bill. My only mistake was I forgot to UNROLL my skirt and HIDE my knees when I got back on campus. We won't even get into having to SLAVE LABOR for the summer to paid your school bill. That was 12-14 hours a day.
Keep up the GREAT work Labor Dept.
CLOSE Laurelbrook down!!!!
At least fine the F'in Hell out of them.
It is nothing but a SLAVE LABOR camp.

Star's Good Friday

We got our little Star on Good Friday a year ago.
She has brought a lot of joy to our household.
Ringo and her get along the best. When they're not
beating each other up they're sleeping together.
Star goes crazy when her Daddy leaves for work.
She trys to keep him from putting on his shoes, and
barks and runs to the bedroom jumping all over the place
when he kisses me good-bye.
She even bites at his pant legs.
When she hears the garage door she stars barking
and waits by the door, then she gets in her chair
until Daddy picks her up.
She such a Daddy's girl!!! Momma loves her too.
Stars wishies everyone a GOOD FRIDAY!!!

GO GATORS!!!

Way to go GATORS!!!

I see they keep chomping thier way through OHIO!!

Frist in football, now in basketball.

Loud Sounds

I now have LOUD sounds in my car.

Craig installed a JVC Radio/CD/ Cassette and ipod player.
With MB Quart Reference 6 1/2'' speakers in the front door, tweeters on the window frame.

We installed a (7521a) Infinity Amp. It has 97Wx2.

It powers the (9623i) 9''x6'' Infinity speakers in the rear window.

The only real hard part was running the power cord to the battery. I'm going to keep my car so might-as-well have great sounds!! I need a tag that say "UGLE BETCH" 'cause I'm not even painting her. Then I don't care if people bump her in the parking lots.

Pet Foods

I know that the recall is for 42 brands of can, but I'm not so sure the dry isn't also BAD.

We've always had Star on dry Nutro. We bought the last bag about 4 weeks ago. Since then she has been throwing-up a few times and has almost stop eating. She would eat a couple bites at a time and never eating it all. I went and got her Beneful by PURINA and she eats her 1/2 cup food in 30 min. and so far not sick. Lucky for me the cats have only had PURINA dry for indoor cats.

BOW WOW Please feed your pets only PURINA foods. MEOW MEOW

My Babies

Sunny Florida

The pets enjoying a cold, sunny day.
The cats could go over the fence but don't
so when we're home they're allowed outside.

Eating Good

I got Craig his favorite, strawberrys and apples for Valentine's.
http://www.ediblearrangements.com
The delivery guy missed Craig at work
so he came to our house with it.
It was 15.4 miles (oneway) out of his way,
in rush hour traffic. So my hats off to
EDIBLE ARRANGEMENTS!!!
They are great and so are the eats.
