Just some photos from the last few days ^^^The Lyle Lovett collection, well loved ^^^This one was in absolute tatters ^^^Pablocito actually was taking a bath in the tub, but he wouldn’t do it after I got the camera. ^^^Theo doesn’t like the camera either, which is a damned shame since he’s so handsome. ^^^Anybody…

^^^My cousin volunteers at a bird of prey rescue and rehabilitation center. It is not open to the public but we were allowed to quietly visit some of the areas and see eagles, hawks, owls, falcons, and one turkey vulture. Adam, the bald eagle in the top photo, is an education bird and whistles and…

This time, from the studio that I rent at a nearby church! I have this floor to myself these days, at least on the weekends and evenings when I can get here. I guess it is just too hot for most people. Turning on my little AC unit the night before and covering my east-facing…

After a lot of coughing, sneezing, and whimpering, it feels like life is turning back to normal again. I was in super-busy mode at work and met the deadlines I needed to on Friday. It’s still busy, but much more manageable. It’s hard to believe that Diego and Pablocito have grown into such big adults.…

Oh my, I am tired of blogging on this Kindle. I need a keyboard. I will commandeer Sandy’s computer while he is at work tomorrow for the last post of 2015.

Miss Lucy Lou O’Neill Summer 2003 – December 20, 2015 Wee Lucy, 2003 Miss Lucy, 2006 Miss Lucy loved her greens, the more bitter, the better, and if she could steal them from the sink, that made them extra good. Lucy loved Squirt. That’s Theo, not Squirt. But they sorta loved each other too. I…
