Good morning OceanSunerise the sun is out here and it is a beautiful day. Thanks so much for your thoughts I had a nice visit with my mom and aunt. I did not get to see my cousin Dawn though because she is in in the middle of moving to a new apartment I don't envy her though see is a bit of a hoarder I am afraid. She also is a animal lover and has three indoor rabbits they are really beautiful.

My cats are all indoor cats I don't let them outside I live out in the country but the road is still pretty busy and I did have a cat the my friends gave us that was pretty wild named Rocky he was so cute orange and white tabby but I tried so hard to keep him in but as soon as one of the doors in our house opened he would run out , he even but holes in my screens, tore down my drapes just to get out so one morning I dot a call from my neighbor Linda that her husband had picked him up off the road he had been hit by a car you know while I am writing this it still brings tears to my eyes. Rocky was only 2 years old. I do bring my cats out on our deck but they have a leash on and sit on my lap. After that happened a few months later I got my seal point himalayan Mickey who is a rescue cat can you believe someone dropped him off he was found in a barn. Just such a beautiful long hair cat with beautiful blue eyes he never tries to get out I think is just so happy to have a home. There are also many homeless cats where I live in fact Linda next store to me feeds them all and they catch the cats and get them spade and neutered and brought back. It is a great program. I hate seeing cats outside unfortunately out door cats usually only have around three years on average life span its sad. Every summer they go away to their trailer and I look after their indoor cats which they have five and I also give water and food to all the outside cats.


I would love your recipe for Lemon Poppy Seed Cake. Lemon is my honestly very favorite dessert flavor. I just love lemon squares and lemon pie if it is not to much trouble when ever you get a chance.

Thanks so much for thinking of me hope you have the best day Christine.
  Thank You

Hello OceanSunrise hope you had a great day. Mine was busy but I did manage to get my house looking great before my mom and aunt got here. We all had such a great time going out for dinner and then we just went over to the dollar store my mom is 74 and she has a hard time breathing now so we could not go and do too much.
Thanks so much for sharing the dog treats recipe I am going to try and make them tomorrow to treat them.I will let you know how my dogs like them.
have a great night talk to you again.

Thanks OceanSunrise I am very lucky always have been I should of been hurt many times over the years I think I have a Angel looking over me. I just finished vacuuming the house I am trying lol but I am so sore it feels like I am doing everything in slow motion. I look around and it seems like its non ending Well they are coming to see me not my house. My mom just love my dog Molly she always brings her presents. Molly sits on her lap the whole time she is here it is so cute. I hope you are having a better day thanks so much for keeping in touch it really makes my day better.
  Thank You

Morning OceanSunrise I just got up about an hour ago Bill and Todd are gone to work so I have the house to myself for a few hours which is always nice I have to do some extra cleaning today because my mom, her sister and my cousin Dawn are coming to visit me tomorrow. I am looking forward so forward to seeing them all I have not seen my mom since Christmas.We all go out for Chinese food and sit and talk we all have a lot of fun catching up and then we all go shopping. Yesterday at work I fell I hurt my knee and both my hands trying to break my fall I fell so hard I felt like I couldn't breath but I am a bit sore today. I just thank God I didn't break anything. So I am sitting here having my morning coffee trying to get the energy to get moving I don't know if you ever have days like that but I have so much to do but I have no energy, Maybe a second cup of coffee will help you have a great day. I will be on and off on here all day in between cleaning.lol

I definitely will show a picture once I've done something! I've found that over the years knitting/crocheting has really helped with my anxiety. I love making little projects like dishclothes, but I occasionally take on big projects like blankets. I find the little projects are best for impatient people, because sometimes you want something you can finish in one evening so it doesn't drag on forever. Definitely a relaxing hobby! :)

Hi OceanSunrise thanks for sharing the sight on huskies with me. It really is a great site I had neighbors a long time a go that had a husky named Chase and I use to watch the dog for them when they would go shopping or run errands and that dog from the time they left would cry and sit in the window watching for them to return home. He would stop when I would pay attention to him and then he would star all over again. He was such a beautiful and very loyal dog. We got our dog Molly when she was four we were watching her for the same friends but it was their parents dog and they didn't want her back to this day I just do not understand why she is such a good dog not a barker, sleeps with us in fact all of them do can you picture that lol . I treat all my pets like my children I guess because I never could have any of my own. I am very lucky I love my home, family, have some good friends I have known for ever.my health and I like my job. So thanks so much for pointing that out to me sometimes we all need reminding how lucky we really are. I have to work a nine hour shift tomorrow but hopefully I will get back on here tomorrow night. I hope you have a great day and thanks for writing me back.
  Good Writer

Thanks for the pattern hints! They're so cute! :)

Good Morning OceanSunrise I so agree with you even though they keep me very busy, expensive sometimes and make me have to clean more often I could not imagine my home without them. I know this is horrible to say but sometimes I love my pets more than people lol. My pets show me so much love and are so happy to see me when I get home from work it really does make it a pleasure to come home. I also agree with you that there is something wrong with people that don't like animals. My dog Molly is a Shih tzu , my cat Mickey is a Seal Point Himalayan, Mama Kitty she is a Tuxedo Cat is my oldest she is 13 and then their is Bobby he is the baby only two he is a Grey Tabby. Then there is Hershey he is a mixed poodle not sure what else but we are looking after him for friends that lost their home it been almost two months now but hopefully they are closer to finding a place we have watched him many time for them when they went on a trip for instance. I love your breed of dog Husky's are so beautiful and hamsters are cute too. Are we not lucky to have our pets. If you get a chance go on my profile and look in my Gallery I have pictures there of my family and pets. I hope you are having a great weekend and thanks so much for being my friend. Christine.
