Finger Spelling With Megan

This morning, I mesmerized Megan with pretend finger spelling.  She was fascinated with it!  Here’s what we did:   We were playing “high five” and I was trying to catch her paw.  Then, I was wiggling my fingers and she laid her paw on top… Continue Reading “Finger Spelling With Megan”

Dreamin’ of Dogs….

I had a dream this morning…..about dogs…..LOTS of dogs!!!  I dreamed that I went to the back door to let the girls in from being out for their morning duties and play time.  When I opened the door, I was in shock to see… Continue Reading “Dreamin’ of Dogs….”

Movie Review – Shutter Island

The previews for this movie grabbed me, but I wasn’t sure I should go see it!  First, I heard a lot of mixed reviews, but hadn’t heard from anyone who actually saw it.  Second, I don’t like horror type thrillers and from the previews I really… Continue Reading “Movie Review – Shutter Island”

Just A Little Stressed Out, Here…

I guess you can say I’ve been blessed or that I must have done something right all my life….I have made it to 53 years old and never had to have any kind of surgery!  In addition to that, I’ve only had one broken… Continue Reading “Just A Little Stressed Out, Here…”

Movie Review – Crazy Heart

Julia Roberts

In honor of this weekend’s opening of “Valentine’s Day” in theaters, I thought I would devote a post to Julia Roberts movies.  I really like Julia Roberts and her name on a cast list is almost always a sure bet that I will run… Continue Reading “Julia Roberts”

Movie Review – Edge of Darkness

Since I am not a football fan, had no interest in watching the Super Bowl, and figured there wouldn’t be much else on TV, I made plans to see a movie today!  My original plan was to see “When In Rome” – yeah, I know,… Continue Reading “Movie Review – Edge of Darkness”

It’s all about the dogs….

This week has been all about dogs for me…..which isn’t that different from most weeks, but a little more obvious than usual!  Megan had an injury that resulted in a couple visits to the vet and an awkward e-collar.  Then there was a very… Continue Reading “It’s all about the dogs….”

Movie Review – Dear John

This movie is from same creators as The Notebook.  Since The Notebook is still my favorite movie of all time, I was not about to miss it!   Another movie by the same creators, Message In A Bottle, is right up there on my list of movies… Continue Reading “Movie Review – Dear John”
