Daily, I'm curious what I should do... It's not that I have nothing to do... I have plenty to do if I desire to tackle it...My closet is a thorn in my side, and eventually I will redo it.
About twenty years ago, I did both Hubby's and my closets, which his has not gotten the least bit messy, well, very little, and mine is a horror show with stuffed items, but... There is the size factor, my clothes that are fluctuating due to quitting smoking, going back to smoking, hypothyroidism, etc., like unable to vigorously exercise before my Multiple sclerosis diagnosis, and it is exacerbating it. But at this time, I have not smoked in nearly 19 years, since July 11, 2006! And although surgically transformed this time...slimness has been over two years at this point. So I think I will stay this way indefinitely!
After I get one more outdoor project done today... It will be too hot to do anything outside for a long, long time... we have already had 90-degree temperatures. And at a quarter after nine this morning, it was 80 degrees! The pot below was free, it came with one of the purchases a couple of days ago at Lowe's. I added in the palm tree that came off a string light that lost a few decorations due to winds during a hurricane and we had forgotten to take them down. It was adorned with another palm tree, and three more are left as well as a couple of Flamingos. Their color faded, and a few broke. I will see what I can salvage...? Oh, the drip plate is from an old ironstone set that is more broken than in good condition. The plant, the Mother-in-Law 's-tongue, Snake plant or Sansevieria Trifasciata, was pulled from our own backyard garden!
Let me introduce you to the crew...
Lastly, moving on to who they are, our crew...
I am called Aussie because my mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl looking at me in the crate I was in at the adoption site that day what she thought I should be named. Mom asked her age, but not her name—ha! Without hesitation, the teenager said Aussie! By the way, she was just looking, so my mom did not steal me from her.
We never discovered the girl's name; Mom liked Aussie, too. Since then, we have found that it is a ubiquitous name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon, even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd, a red Merle. And here is an interesting factoid about me: I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but as you might know, I AM NOT! I am a standard Australian Shepherd! Although I am now seven years old, I am the baby. I am the largest of fur babies, and due to my breed and being standard, I am just right.
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. The volunteers had removed me from a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter.Above is my PIC, taken on the birthday I shared with my dad, but dad is much older than I am!!! I was the first to be adopted, on February 16, 2018, on Dad's brother's birthday.
My previous family turned me in, stating that I had misbehaved with their elderly dog. It had been said that I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, clearing out the shelter's day!
My record called me Belle, so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella. I was beautiful either way!
Hey, wait! Please don't forget me! I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am 13-ish years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with Mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps late with Dad, till after seven most days, even later sometimes!
I enjoy a good tug-a-war on the ropes 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 had been wandering the neighborhood for days when I saw Aussie and Bella in their living room window, so I hung out there.
The animal control lady had been called and came out to see if I had a chip ID with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason is that if no one claimed me, "I want to give him a second chance!" So that is how I got the name Chance!
The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen
days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening.
Easy as Aussie, Bella, and Chance, now you've got it! In order of adoption!
