WARNING! WARNING!

.

I am starting off today by WARNING those of you who are offended by bad language...RUN!!! Seems this week I've had issues with my renegade tongue from the grooming incident and was sent the joke on the VERY bottom. Although I do not post other peoples work (except 2 photos here with credit)...it was how I felt about the pet services in my area :/ It is the joke with the fire (would post credit but not sure where it came from other than through email from one of my online groups...hehe). For the rest of you who know me when I am on my soapbox...scroll all the way down and this other joke posted here, well, just decided to post it too anyway since we are having all this snow and breaking records in the south. I have a friend in Biloxi, MS. on the coast and another in La Comb, La. out driving in it today so the one here with the snowman protest on global warming is for ya'll ;)

Playing with layer styles in PS today from graphicsoft. Nothing I was out looking for but with a little tweaking and layering the styles, I'm getting close. So much for the expensive filters I bought but in time I will learn them and become faster. Love the iron effect on the butterflies font (hehe...good ol' Iron Butterfly from the 60's...pun, pun, pun!). I'm getting close to the jewel tones I want too and it is an excellent learning source for the settings. I plan to join their forum but may go play some "Farmville" game on Facebook with my daughter or girlfriend when they pop back online.

Glad tomorrow is groom day so I can get the soap off Paros. He won't be greasy for valentines day which also happens to be heartworm time and my parents anniversary. Missing the dings that come stoked in PS so off to hunt them down so here comes the joke only instead of buying cookies....for me its delivering the pet services...teehee.

You've been WARNED!!

*%#?@!

 .

Well...the weather today is calling for snow with rain...then a light snow. What the hell is that?!? Sludgy ice mud?!? And what's up with the weather around here? I mean, it used to only snow about once every 5 years and now we get all this stuff :/  And I was wanting to order the Wacom drawing tablet for my computer. If it means opening the door to the Fed X people....forget it. I'll just play with dreamsuite for now (doggon font with dreamsuite 1's filter...DimensionX).

Spent most of the morning reactivating my Facebook account just to view pictures of my grandchildren and well...a friend finally got her a spot on the web. Don't know what happened with her windows live and Deja vue,  Deja vu....isn't this like My Space?!? Whatever happened to everyone over there?!? I think facebook is worse! It's where the masses go and reminds me of how everyone got sucked into the AOL trap (lol...never went there but somehow get sucked in signing up to view these other dumb ass sites :/). Ahhh...I love them anyway so what the hell.

I figured out what was wrong with everyone. Infarcts. HLN mentioned so much brain death ensued with improper diets and around here...eating wheat germ, honey or raw sugar for sweetner, raw fruits and vegetables are uncommon. Although catfish is popular here...finding fish high with omega 3 isn't as common. Could be the drinking water too :l Posting insert from dog cookbook...one of P's favorite recipes from "The Good Food Cookbook for Dogs. He had peanut butter cookies (hehe...for hair growth) last night and tonight is having chicken stew (frozen skinned chicken breast with brown rice, carrots, and broccoli). Believe it or not is comes out cheaper than canned dog food. I have him on a holistic kibble and reading "Better Food for Dogs" which is the best for detailed information on diets and the canine food recalls (I think the dogs eat better than most people around here :/).

As soon as my brain thaws I think I'll shoot some more pics but getting tired of these walls and all this sludge and ice/rain/snow stuff. Wouldn't be bad if something were on TV but Dexter and Sons of Anarchy won't kick off their new seasons for a bit and living in the Delta, local TV isn't available to us if we paid for it. Wish Hugh Hefner wouldn't have gotten new girlfriends or I could be watching "The Girls Next Door". I miss Bridget and her comatose pet pal 'Wednesday' :{ Reminds me of the Shih Tzu.

GOT MILK?

BRIDGE MAY ICE

.

And snow and ice it did. 3 times so far. The holidays have been too cold to open up the computer room and Jim has been away out of town in North Carolina through the new year but I did get him 3 days around Christmas. He left the snow out there only to come home to more of it. His co-worker stayed behind and they finally just transferred him out there; right after purchasing 2 Tn. walkers (posted pic here). At least he won't have to live out of hotels and motels anymore ;)


 We had plans to drive to Louisiana to watch the Superbowl but had problems renting a large enough SUV to accommodate P's cage. I wasn't about to trust him to a kennel with all the issues I've had with pet services in the region. Let's just say there won't be many photos I'll share of him for awhile after this one (an afghan in an afghan lol!) but did put a hefty order into Petedge for grooming equipment. I'll have more than the facilities around here lol and maybe offer services to others suffering the same, who knows. It was the last thing I wanted to go back into but God has a way of moving us to where we need to be ~sigh~

Speaking of our father...here is a link to "Drawing Heaven" about an astounding 12 yr. old prodigy that paints and plays music because she says he tells her too. Her mother was atheist and her work is amazing! She has been painting since 4 and the concept of God was never discussed in her home. I also never knew the silence there was when Buzz Aldrin took his first steps on the moon was due to his taking communion. NASA said it was best not to radio it because Ohare..atheist b*tch...would have protested. I'm not against atheists really. Just when they tread on our grounds of freedom of expression and speech. Weren't we "One Nation Under God" anyway? We have to suffer their silence so I guess our freedoms were obliterated to hell :/

Some good news at least...Saints won and Paros (note the "M" for "Marley") may get a running pal! I should've thrown the Shih Tzu to all these groomers to be the guinea pig to test their abilities lol!

Well...it's still cold and snowed in Memphis today. We just got rain so nothing but mud. Watching for black ice though as the signs say..."Bridge May Ice" in cold weather.
