Flaws

They told me he would be euthanized because he was flawed. He just did not know how to relate to people, he had no trust in them at all. I worked with him for six weeks and he came to trust me but slowly, I knew by looking in his eyes he was not flawed he just needed time. He was a feral dog found on the street fending for himself since he was a puppy, thrown away like the weekly garbage so why should he trust humans?

The Humane Societies all across America come across thousands of these little guys every year, they can only do so much and unfortunately because shelters are so over loaded they can only give them so much time to become adoptable.

I wound up fostering him and we all fell in love with him and could not give him back so he has made a place in our hearts and our home, he is the most loving little dog once he gets to know you, he just needs time. I wish I could foster them all, it breaks my heart that they pay for our flaws.....

Nature's Treasures

One thing this photo project is teaching me is to keep my eyes open and LOOK! Just before Valentines Day we took the dogs out for a walk on the creek behind our house, as we were walking I looked down and saw a nut shell left by one of the many squirrels that normally I would have kicked aside, instead I looked at it and saw what I thought was a heart shape so I picked it up took it home and took this photo and boy spot on heart from Mother Nature to us, I told John she must be telling us she is nuts about us :) Nature presents us with treasures everyday we just have to look.

Me and Mini Mii

As we were playing with our Wii game, John happen to mention that me and my mini mii look very much alike and yes I agree but what is disturbing is that we have the same wardrobe :)

So meet Me and Mini Mii :) Nice to meet you all.

Love is......

She does not judge, is not scared of me with or without makeup, she is the first one that greets me in the morning, she is the first one that greets me when I get home with a BIG bear hug. In her eyes I do no wrong, even though that is not true. She shows me what unconditional love is every day.

Rock (Candy)

As a little girl I remember making this with sugar and water. Then we used to take a string and dip it in the mixture and it would turn into the sweetest best candy. I know I am missing parts of the recipe, it has been a long time since I was a little girl, does anyone remember?

Extraordinary

To me nature has always been extraordinary. It reinvents itself by the minute and just takes my breadth away.

"A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed... It feels an impulsion.... this is the place to go now. But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons"

A New Perspective

Looking at things with a different perspective can make for some interesting photos
