I Guess I’m a Hip-Hop Granny!

It’s so funny…I guess I like a lot of BLING! I love anything shiny or sparkly or full of gorgeous stones.

LOL… I know I’m a grandmother, but I like what I like! Why not? You only live once!!! Plus, one of my son-in-laws is African American, so I think I’m pretty hip when it comes to hip hop fashion and knowing about entertainers and stuff like that! I [ ... ]

Finally Got My New Canopy

I ordered a brand new canopy to be made for my outdoor patio gazebo, as the last one was ripped to shreds from a wind storm in the late Spring. The gazebo-like frame is still intact and beautiful, so I wanted to get a new canopy, so I could enjoy the summer weather without the beating sun… So, I had a number of people come out to look and I got a serious variety of estimates for how much something of this magnitude would cost, as I couldn’t find a suitable replacement in the [ ... ]

My Precious Pincess – The Miniature Schnauzer: Part #3

* This post is continued from My Precious Princess – The Miniature Schnauzer: Part #1 & Part #2.

My Precious Princess – The Miniature Schnauzer: Part #1

In 2005, I lost my husband to a very rare cancer and during the week of his death, I found that I too, had cancer.

During the course of my extended treatments, my daughter’s terrier family increased to include 2 miniature schnauzer puppies, Kurious and Knosey. During those endless months of chemotherapy, I was so very comforted by the love and attendance I received from these caring and entertaining dogs. As I [ ... ]
