It never seems to amaze me how so many people bring their dogs to this market. It just doesn’t make sense. It is an outside market, on a black top parking lot of an elementary school. These poor dogs are walking on this extremely hot surface while their idiot owners are looking around not even seeing how their dogs are burning their paws. It was in the high 90’s yesterday, so you know that the parking lot was burning hot.

People leave the dogs at home, have a heart!

Needless to say bees, wasps and hornets are not my favorite insects to deal with and I wish that they would cease to keep coming back to my place each and every year. What a pain.

Living alone can get scary at times. It is hard to feel safe knowing that if a situation arises that no one will there to immediately come to my aid. I used to worry about what I would do in a variety of circumstances. Every creak caught my attention and made wish that I wasn’t alone. 

Being an independent woman, I decided that I couldn’t allow this paranoia and fear to continue. It was consuming my life. I paid a visit to my local animal shelter and looked at dogs. However, my schedule doesn’t really allow for me to give a dog the attention it would need. There had to be another solution. I decided that a cat could keep me company on lonely nights while taking care of itself during the day. As an extra precaution, I installed a Minnesota security alarm systems. 

As a woman alone it is important to consider my safety and protect it whenever I can. However, I take comfort in knowing that I am independent and can take of myself.

Mailboxes have come a long way since the 60’s. I’ve seen some very interesting and creative ones going down the road. Some people put a lot of time, effort and money into their mail boxes these days. I’ve never owned anything other the regular run of the mill mail box and have decided to start looking around for a nicer one for my use. There are several websites that have a great variety of mailboxes for sale so I’ll have plenty to choose from. I don’t want to spend a large amount of money, but I want a good looking one that is made with quality that will last a good long while and still maintain it’s attractiveness, while having all the correct and important information easy to read day or night.

Will see what I come up with in the next couple of weeks.

I was with her when she picked out her first pair of eye glasses. Her parents were both unable to take off from work so I volunteered to take her to pick up her prescription and take her next door to pick out her new lens and frames. She did a great job, stayed within a reasonable price range and came out looking like the princess that she was (and still is in my eyes) the glasses were pink and very girlie like!

Anyway, if she can convince her folks to let her give the contacts a try I’ll do my best to support their decision and who knows, maybe I’ll be the one to take her to get her first fitting. After that I’m sure that they will be purchasing the replacements online where you can get great deals on all types of eye wear.

I have a close and dear  friend who is totally dependent on the Internet for looking into The Orchid Recovery Center for Women. She has been battling drug and alcohol addiction most of her life and just can’t seem to get the right type of help for her individual needs. She has been reading The Orchid Center Charity Blog that she found online and has been emailing me a few things about it here and there. She knows that I will do anything that I can to help support her in her effort to beat this monkey that she has been carrying on her back since before I even knew her back in college.

The Orchid Recovery Center specializes and focuses on women and their addiction issues, which is a whole different ball game from the male side of the coin. She is a single mother with 2 young kids to deal with and to consider along the way. I don’t know how she has managed to do what she has done so far. I’m glad that I can be there for her however I can manage to be.
