My poor puppy...12 year old collie. Had to put him to sleep tonight. What a bad, sad day!

We've dragged all our friends and family out to look at our land. I think there's room for a small swimming pool.
Building a house

The carpet must not be so light company is afraid to walk in. (I just read a great blog on the subject!) The kitchen will be a place for all my kids (grown up) to cook and eat and socialize. We're putting in a pool so the grandkids (future) can ro...
Liver problems?
posted over 3 years ago | 0 comments
My liver counts are high. Anyone else have this problem? I started the summer feeling great, going to the gym, etc. For 3 weeks or so, I've been dizzy and nauseated and now my rheumie says my liver counts are high and I have a cyst on my liver. Am...

Senses alive in Leakey!

We're still reliving all our wonderful experiences. The Frio chilled us on those 100 degree days. A porcupine scuttled into the road, making us laugh. Sam and Lewis chased it with their cameras. We girls vowed we wouldn't pick quills out of anybod...
Walking in the Hill Country

We're enjoying the Leakey area--tubing down the river, eating peaches and ice cream, savoring Medina apple pie. The rain beating on the tine roof wakened me at 6 AM. I'm sure the farmers are thrilled about the rain, and it freshened everything.
