Cheap Dog Treats

E-mail Print PDF

Reku has a powerful need to chew. He always has. We have provided him with a long line of chewy treats since he was a puppy. This has helped to keep him chewing on approved items only, rather than, say, my favorite pair of leather shoes. The problem is there aren't a lot of dog chews available here in Mazatlan. Knowing this, we brought 900 large Greenies with us when we moved here, but that supply has run out.

I really love all of the plants in our courtyard. They make the area seem more inviting and cooler, at least mentally. The problem is I am not a very good plant guardian.

Now I have all these lush plants to take care of, and I don't even know what they are.

Care Package from Home

E-mail Print PDF

At the beginning of April, my friends Bonnie and Alan went back to Dallas for a little over a month to take care of some things and check on their rental property there. When I found out that not only were they going to Dallas, but driving, I asked if they would mind taking a purse along with them that I had purchased almost a year ago for my sister's birthday. It's one of those cute ones woven from metallic ice cream wrappers, and I knew my sister would get a charge out of it. My parents live very near Dallas. Bonnie graciously agreed to deliver the purse.

It's So Pretty!

E-mail Print PDF

I am totally in love with our new house. And this is no first-blush puppy love. I think it will be an enduring, deep love affair; a passion that has little to do with the fact that, after moving six times in ten years, I would rather open a vein than contemplate packing up all my stuff and schlepping it to a new location yet again.
