Okay, now sing it with me just to ring in the holiday spirit: On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me A garage cat with some fleas. On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Two broken cars (poor Nissan and Amigo!) And a garage cat with […]

Cat poo, candles and flaming tales. More pet madness to share!
You know how sometimes when you do something you get this flash of disaster scenario warning you of the what-if’s? I got one right as I was lighting a candle in my stinky bathroom. You see I was drawing a bath which is an immediate invitation for one of my cats to take a giant […]
Good morning all, got a flood? We do!
Look what we had the pleasure of waking up to in the basement of our rental… It rained most of the night and thank goodness our neighbors warned us about the leaky basement as we were moving it. Apparently our basement has some major leaking issues and today we get to witness them first hand. […]
Could it snow today? Weather man says it might!
N and I are headed out for a day of getting stuff done. We have a mystery shop all sorts of things to do today. We are going to the book swap place with some of my old, already read books, we might do some holiday shopping and we have grocery shopping to do. Plus […]
Fleas make me a crazy lady!
In an attempt to tackle the flea population we bought everyone a flea collar and we spent the weekend bathing our pets. We have the flea carpet powder, the dog has been treated with those flea drops and now we have introduced the flea shampoo and the flea collars. If the flea aren’t gone after […]

Someone leaves the island…
Yeah, strange title. I am weird creative like that! It is 11:16 pm Indiana time and I am 3 hours away from winning a David’s Davids Bridal Felina Longline Bra off eBay. It was the special bra they put me in the day I visited Davids bridal and tried on dresses, it was amazing. Just […]

Well, it is 3:02pm and we have finally left Flagstaff, AZ are en route. We had a major delay in departing today thanks to our property manager. We were all set for an 11am inspection appointment and we woke up all early to finish the last minute tasks. We got all our cleaning done in […]
Count down, 12 days to go!
N is back home from Peach Springs, he was sent out there to cover some breaking news yesterday. I guess there was lots of flooding out that way that really caused some issues for tourists and residents. Today he will be covering a John McCain appearance in Flagstaff. Dispite the station being shut down he […]
Freecycle pets… Got one?
We are suckers for freecycle, who doesn’t LOVE free stuff? You can get or give just about anything through your local freecycle group but how many of you have received pets this way? We have, a few times actually! Giving your pet away online may seem kind of strange to some. Trust me it is […]
Baby chicks, a video!
For mothers day weekend I visited my mom and got to enjoy all the baby chickens she had hatched. I also got to see one hatching! My mom got a nifty little video camera for her birthday/ mothers day and since then I have been twisting her arm about starting a blog. Today she finally […]
Crazy weather makes my animals crazy!
Just so you know, it is currently snowing, hailing and raining in spurts here and is supposed to continue through the weekend. If you are heading to Northern Arizona for some memorial day camping or outdoor fun be advised- It is damn cold! We are not planning any outdoor fun this weekend but the weather […]
3 months to go till we move, again!
Last week was the first week of being forced to showed our current rental home. The owners decided to put it back on the market 3 months into our 6 month lease. So, I was home last Friday when this Native American couple came with their agent to tour the home. The showing was fairly […]
Mothers day weekend – part 2, snakes, oh my!
Several years back we got my mom these two chicks. They were a mothers day/ birthday gift (her birthday is very close to mothers day) and she was so surprised. Turns out we got her silkies (a specific breed of chicken), a male and female. Years later she has a whole bunch of chickens. Her […]

Mothers day is just around the corner and that means I will be staying with my mom for the weekend on “The Ranch” out in New River, AZ. It has become a tradition for us to go hang out with her and help her expand her ranch each year… Mothers day is actually very close […]
It is only 6am, let me sleep!
My cats are so annoying sometimes, Mr. guy especially! He is a control freak and will have litle temper tantrums if life does not follow the routine HE is used to. N did not come home last night, that is a routine disruption. N usually gets up at about 6 or 7 am everyday and […]
I am a sucky pet owner :-(
Now that N’s work schedule has changed I am dropping him off at work in the morning and we usually take our dog on the car rides with us. Well today we got home from dropping N off at work, my hands we full of crap and I was trying to get Dixie out of […]
