I've been thinking about the environment. I wish people had gone green twenty-five years ago. Not many people thought about baby disposable diapers as crap that fills up our landfills. No one ever thought about how many things are from petro chemicals. Do you know how much it take to make corn methane?

I think maybe some of us are getting a clue. Do you run the water while you brush your teeth? Bad! How about long showers? Bad! How about throwing old pills in the toilet and flushing them into our waterways? Bad! Okay, have you been wearing second hand clothes? Good! Is your food healthy, grown close to where you live and not GM?

It's depressing but at least we can make and effort and do something about it! Don't just sit there! So do something!

The dogs are funny. She still chases deer but only to the edge of the woods. He sleeps sometimes with his paws touching her.

Waiting --by RDLarson



Waiting


With my heart swelling, I spoke to Sinclair. "She's here."

"Our baby?" His voice quivered.

"They want us to come in."

"After fifteen years," he gasped.

"Tomorrow." I could not say any more.

The next morning, we drove to into the city early.

"It seems unbelievable," I told Sinclair.

"I know."

We went into the building. The facilitator came out and took us to a waiting room.

The nurse to put the baby in my arms as we sat on the couch. Sinclair leaned close to look at the little face. Unfocused eyes stared at me; then at him.

"Is she really ours?"

"Yes. Have you picked a name?"

"Aria Rose." I pulled away the blanket to see the tiny toes.

I shrunk back, startled at the site of the long pink tail.

Sinclair swore under his breath, then said, "Clone or alien?"

Dogs are family too; Oprah says so!


Who can argue with an icon like her? All you people who chide me for loving my dogs TOO MUCH should think again. My dogs never ask for money, my dogs always remember me, not just when I can do something for them, and, wonder of wonders, they don't try to foist their opinions off on me. They don't worry about world events because they know they can't do anything about it; they just worry about me. They like my food but don't care if I don't like theirs. Best of all, when I am less than poised they don't care; they love me and think I'm a good person/place/thing -- no matter what!

Not even near to the election and I am sick of "the election of 2009." It's all about power.

Things I can't stand:

People who use the word "issues" for problems.

People who don't make conscious, thinking decision about their life. What are they waiting for? Nobody is going to give it to you, make it for you or eat it for you. YOU are responsible for your own life.

People who suck the life out of people with good will because they can. You know the ones -- will you? can you? I've got a problem so can you? It makes me sick. I don't listen and I don't help.

I am fond of: lost souls of any faith, witches who are genuinely good, elves that can fly, mocha almond fudge ice cream and wallpaper that looks like something it isn't -- like sky and clouds.
