Busy Day At My House Today!

I spent the weekend cleaning my house. It didn’t qualify as Spring cleaning because it wasn't a deep cleaning. I only have 1350 sq. ft. but it feels like twice that amount with a once over and polishing all the wood furniture and cabinets. I just got tired of cleaning so next week I'll work on the...

It Didn't Go As Planned for James Pond and Arnold A.K.A. Louie!

Jessica got a call in late morning from the rescue center after James Bond went to the vet regarding a limp. The vet said his prognosis was not good. From past experience it usually indicates cancer. She did not click with Arnold. I think it was due to not wanting to take him from James when his... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Warm Day In The Treasure Valley!

Today will be another record breaking day with temperature of 81° with an overnight low of 51°. It's a tad too hot for the first day of Spring, it's more like summer weather. I'd rather be a bit warm than cold if I had my choice. We've broken three records this week with one record dating back to... Sign in to see full entry.

The Saga Of A Rescue Duck Named James Pond! LOL

My daughter was approved to adopt Arnold, A.K.A. Louie! She gets to meet him on Friday. The rescue center asked if she would be willing to take James Pond, (lol, this just makes me chuckle) since Arnold has bonded with him. I suspect the duck house will have to feature 007, hahahahahaha 😆! Her... Sign in to see full entry.

Great Weather In The Treasure Valley!

We have a chance to break a weather record tomorrow. The forecast is 80 degrees. The record temp was set in 2007 at 74 degrees. It's too early for 80 degree temps but luckily it won't last. We have many days of 100 plus temps in the summer. It's much easier to ease gradually into the hot, hot, hot... Sign in to see full entry.

Pete made it through the surgery but as the vet was sewing up the area where part of his wing was removed his heart stopped. They were unable to revive him. When Jessica called she was...

Big Day For Pete Tomorrow!

Pete has his surgery tomorrow. They take him at 8:00 a.m. MST. My daughter is very apprehensive. I can't blame her for worrying after all he's been with her for nearly 8 years. I truly believe he will be fine because he is healthy. He's always been fed top of the line food for ducks. He gets meal... Sign in to see full entry.

Just Came Across Some Great Meditative Music.

Some days I get into reels for entertainment. Today I was looking for recipes that don't take flour or sugar. I tried a 3 ingredient cake recipe. It's very tasty. 1 ripe banana mashed, 1 egg and 2 tablespoons cocoa powder. Mix the ingredients until smooth. Place in small baking dish (I wanted... Sign in to see full entry.
