AUTUMN IS IN THE AIR!
Happy first day of Autumn, everyone! I can scarcely believe that another summer has come and gone so quickly! But, that time of year has come again. Oddly enough, despite the chill in the air, I love the Fall. It's one of my favourite seasons. Google's homepage is cool today. It's a little fellow... Sign in to see full entry.

PRETTY PINECONES EVERYWHERE
I wrote a while ago that my fingers and hands have been getting itchy to start crafting again. I still haven't fiddled about with those crochet hooks yet, but I will soon. I'm also still working on buying one of those afghan looms that I found at one of my favourite crafting websites last year. In... Sign in to see full entry.
ANOTHER SENSELESS LOSS
Hi everyone... Please may I ask you all to keep my friend Tracy and her daughter in your prayers tonight? More importantly, please keep the family of her daughter's friend in your prayers.

A HAPPY ENDING AFTER ALL
Margaret and I just checked out the Coffeyville animal shelter's web page to see if there was an update on our beautiful German shepherd boy and... He has been rescued!!!!! He will be taken to a German sheperd sanctuary in Tulsa, Oklahoma where he'll stay until he can be placed in a home that's... Sign in to see full entry.
MAN'S BEST FRIEND?
I'm furious. Actually, that word doesn't do justice to how angry I am. How frightened, and how sad. I'm sorry dear ones, but another rant on behalf of our animal friends is about to begin. I know you've all endured countless rants on this topic over the years, but I'm pleading with you to indulge me... Sign in to see full entry.
SWEET ARRIVAL!
My beautiful little gingerbread lady and Natvity set arrived about an hour ago! I'm so excited! I know we still need to get through the Halloween and Thanksgiving holidays, but I can hardly wait to start decorating the house for Christmas! The little lady is just as cute as a button. Cuter, even.... Sign in to see full entry.

SUNDAYS ARE FOR SHOPPING...WINDOW AND/OR OTHERWISE!
Oh, dear me! What's a lady to do? I still have birthday shopping to finish, and only a couple of weeks left to pull it off! So...it's time to shop, shop, shop! Thankfully, I have tons of ideas. Both Margaret and I need some new warmer clothes for the oncoming Fall and Winter, so I've been scouting... Sign in to see full entry.
A HARD DAY
Hi everyone... Please may I ask you all to keep Becky and her family in your prayers? It will be a very difficult and painful day for them to get through. Today marks the first anniversary of her brother Richie's passing. Thank you all and God bless. Sign in to see full entry.

AN ACHE THAT JUST WON'T DULL
I think I've figured out why I've been feeling so lost today. At least, good part of it. And after an aritcle I read earlier this afternoon, I only ache all the more for the innocent people in Ukraine who are suffering because of this horrible mess. You see, I still want to go. And yes, I still... Sign in to see full entry.
FRIDAY AT LAST!
This is one of those weeks I thought it would NEVER get here. UGH! But, here we are on a Friday again! HOORAY! If I drank, I'd probably race downtown to the local pub tonight. Thank goodness I don't! Though a virgin daquari wouldn't hurt any and would be really nice. Margaret is off to the grocery... Sign in to see full entry.

LONG LIVE SCOTLAND!
Keeping my fingers crossed and praying hard that the people of Scotland will FINALLY gain their independence and freedom from the UK at last! I love all my English friends to death, but all my Scottish friends, too. I really believe the time has come for them to be free and to rule their country as... Sign in to see full entry.
THE JOURNEY CONTINUES
Hi everyone... Please may I ask you all to continue to pray for Sarah? She is home from the rehab centre and has been going to various therapy appointments.
