  • Star's New Playmate

    Tuesday, December 2, 2008 | A Happy story

    Adopted a new dog from the Humane Society. Bella Luna (Italian for beautiful moon ,since we already have a Star) is 9 weeks old and since the Society got her mother while she was pregnant, they didn't have the funds to have her tail docked or ears cropped and at this late of date, I'm not going to put her through it. She is a wonderful puppy and she and Star get along just great.

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008 | A Funny story

    I went to the supermarket today and was quietly getting my shopping, when the lights went out!! Why did lots of people start screaming!! It wasnt dark, but they left their shopping and ran out of the shop, of course that started everyone else off so there was a stampede (that word doesnt look right) Of course if you were still in the shop and got to the check out no-one could calculate your shopp...
