You know you have great puppies when.....

...they get more mail than you do!

Lots of "get better soon" wishes from friends and family.



Thank you all for all the emails, comments and cards sent to our fur-babies. I am happy to report they are doing just fine.

Really good. Cuddly and lovey.

Like nothing has happened.

I wish I could heal like that...I think I would have dragged it our for all time to get as much sympathy as possible...................but that's just me....

And while they were getting all the well-wishes, I got a box of rocks.

Yep. Hand delivered by my other sister, Gerri at Thanks-mas. Lovingly delivered a box of rocks.....

From Kathy. And her friends.. found while walking....the friends..not the rocks....they were just lying around...they're rocks after all...

Which reminds me, when "Dammit-Andy" was little , he wanted to be a rock.

Not a rock-star. Oh no. He wanted to be a rock...on the beach....makes a Mother proud to know her children have such lofty goals....................

Anyway, they were just what I wanted!

When others see a "box of rocks" I see miniature canvases.

I think of the possibilities of what could go on these flat, smooth rocks. But I must tell you the idea is not mine. I actually saw on another blog some great ideas for flat rocks, and I loved it right away.

Trouble is, Rocky Mountain rocks are, well, rocky...bumply, and not-smooth. And Randy wouldn't have let me pick them up anyway.....

Seems like Arizona rocks are PERFECT! Smooth, flat, neat-o shapes. And no one seems to mind when you take them, right??

So to Kathy and her walking friends, all I have to say is,

You are ......

Have a wonderful Wednesday and remember, "art" is all around you. You just have to know what you're looking for!
