I've started to make some nice little scrabble tile magnets. They are a great size and also REALLY strong. The little guys will hold at least 7 sheets of paper to any metal surface. Small, but mighty. More to come in the future......♥♥

So, my dear Scoutster has been gaining weight and her doggie doc stated her concern about this.

Well, she had blood tests (she has seizures and has to have her blood levels checked regularly) and they decided to check her thyroid. Turns out she has a hypothyroid condition-and so do I!!


Now we take our thyroid medication together. Ha! Hopefully this will help with her weight issue. We'll just see how it goes.

She is older and has arthritis so she can't really jump up on things like she used to-the weight doesn't help matters either.....heehee.

Now she has her own doggie steps. They work great. She wasn't sure about them at first, but quickly learned to walk right on up and make herself comfortable in her favorite places; the bed, and the sofa. I recommend these if your pet has similiar issues.

Whoooo's watching........just like the look of this guy. Very dignified fellow and keeping an eye
on everything.
We have owls that live in the wooded area behind our home. Many times I hear them.....very cool.
My parents, on the other hand are not big owl fans. They have a little dog, whom they adore, and they are afraid an owl will steal him away.
This becomes less and less likely as he eats more and more treats provided to him often.
