Somedays... I am depressed.

 


The feeling of worthlessness is not my friend or yours either.

Do you ever have these feelings?

What do you do about them?

As my heart breaks underneath, I try hard to distract myself.

Writing is my sanity, has always been.

And the feeling of talking out those feelings with unknown entities gives me some privacy.

Moving on...

See, I have a very short attention span.

And that minute fact is why I never fall too far!

We appear to have a very smart RAT in our garage, he/she keeps eating the bait that is pond fish food and moves the new pretty blue plexiglass traps across the garage! He/she is one very large RAT! 

Sounds like she might be in the family way! UH OH!!!

We are in for it! 

Since we can hear it in behind the walls and ceiling at night and the wee hours of the morning. 

Moving on once more...

President Joe and VP Kamala make me feel hopeful.

But people who won't get vaccinated make me worry!

And they are also the ones who appear in public not wearing masks!

What's with that?

Nerve-wracking.

Full circle... oh well.

Here we go again...

And so we must go for now...

Please be smart, as well as safe.
Have a very pleasant night.


Count those blessings, and we will too!
Next time, please be here or be square, ya hear!

Aussie, say Good day!

I am Aussie, not being from Australia, but American-made. I will comply anyway for the fun of it,... so I will say good day!

I am called Aussie, because my Mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl, who had been looking at me, in the crate at the adoption site that day what she thought I should be named. And without hesitation, the teenager had said, Aussie! She was just looking, by the way,... so Mom did not steal me from her.
We never did find out the girl's name, and Mom liked the name Aussie too. We have since found out that it is a very common name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon though,...some might say even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd. Here is an interesting factoid, I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but...as you might know, I AM NOT! Although I am now three years old, so I am the baby, though tipping the scales around seventy pounds, HA! I must admit, a very big one! 
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. Below is my new PIC that had been taken on the birthday that I share with my Dad, but Dad is much, much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted, February 16, 2018, his brother's birthday.
                            3 months................................................3 years

No tail/tale publishing, circa 2018. 
Get it? I was born without a tail, preferable for all Australian Shepherds; only one out of five are born that way!

                                           
Hello, I am Bella above, a Maltese Yorkie, a Morkie, and I might be five years old. I am the middle child, so I am what you would expect, with all those idiosyncrasies that go along with all that! Being the only girl has its rewards, as well as difficulties...We are all rescues, so no one knows for sure our ages. I was turned in from my previous family, stating that I was misbehaving with their elderly dog, they had said I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, on clear the shelters' day!Oh, by the way, my record's called me Belle, and so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella; beautiful either way!


Please don't forget me, I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am six years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with Mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps in with Dad, till after seven most days, even later! I enjoy a good tug-of-war on the ropes that Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays too! I was the last to be adopted, on January 23, 2020. 

I was wandering the neighborhood for days and then saw Aussie and Bella in their living room window so I hung out there... The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening? 

Now my name of Chance is because I was given another chance, it could be only the second one or perhaps more... The animal control lady came out to see if I had a chip with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason being, that if no one claimed me, I want to give him a second chance! So that is how I got the name Chance!

Easy as Aussie, Bella, Chance, now you got it!

Speaking My Mind: Just a six-month skin check-up? :   I know, I know, six months?  Although in Florida its a wild card for skin cancer, both...
