Wheely Wednesday

We call him Blue! Tom bought him in 1976. He was just a stock little Jeep then. It did not take long for him to start growing. Blue is a big part of our lives, he even took us on our honeymoon. We got a lot of looks on the highway.
Good people I am going to say goodnight for now. Tell next time. Fern
Happy Wheely Wednesday!

Little trailer

In the picture of me and my first dog was the little trailer we lived in until I was 7 years old. The trailer was 12 feet long. Can you imagine thee people living in a 12 ft. space. I lived it and I can not imagine it!!! I had no bed. I slept on a bench in the breakfast nook. When I got bigger they put a board across the nook between benches. I slept on that board. Today I love hard beds.
In the day time my Mom and Dad slept. They kept me tied out side with Tippie, tied to the trailer hitch. In that picture I see a very sad little girl and a very sad little dog.
Maybe I will see you all tomorrow. Good night. Push my follow button if I have one.

My first dog



Meet Tippie! She was so sweet. She deserved so much better than she had to endured living with us and I say that loosely. She really did not even get to live (with) us, she lived outside.

No matter the weather. On the ground! I cry every time I think of her. She never got walked.

She got so little.





These are young coons having a shoving match. I don't know why, only they know what the dispute was all about. Not food, that's all gone.




Sweet Miss Amanda. Then I had Joker we walked every day out back in the woods. There is trails and dirt roads back there. Joker loved it. Amanda did not. So after awhile I started to take her to a park. She liked that much better. We would go in the mornings, not a lot of people then. She did not like to be around other dogs. Funny that's where she lived when I got her, in a kennel. She must have been very unhappy there.

I am gong to say good night. I will be back.

Quality Time


For those of you who do not think that dogs and cats can be very good friends, I show you this!
Amanda and Tiger asleep in Amanda's chair with her arm around Tiger. They really were special friends!
This is the rose that men give to their sweetie, the American Beauty! An old variety, But it sure lives up ti it's name!

Meet my Mother.. She looks so sweet. Sometimes she was sweet. One of the times you could count on her being sweet was when I was pregnant. She treated me the best then. My Mother had a lot of mental problems. When she was 10 her Mother gave her to an aunt and uncle to raise. She never got over that.
Well my friends I am tired. I hope you enjoyed tonight look into my life. If you are not a follower please push my button and become a follower

No pictures tonight

My Father was a piano player in night clubs. My Mother was very jealous of my Dad being around women who were drinking because for sure they would want him! So her answer to this was to go to work with him every night. I was an alcohol syndrome, drug syndrome, and she smoked, baby. I knew all this when I was a young girl. I did not know how much damage it had done to my body. In the 90's all my troubles started. I was so tired, I could not breathe, and I was hurting and hurting! Tom started taking me to doctors. They took x rays and said my cervical spine was in bad shape. The x rays showed my bones were like paper. Tom wanted them to find better results. He took me to the people hospital in Gainsville. They found I had under developed lungs and I had asthma, I had thyroid inactivity and my bones on my lower body where in good shape but the ones in the upper half were very thin and the least little thing could render me paralyzed. So here we are!!Iam not as bad as they said I am but I am not good.
The fall into the wall July the 1st has really done some damage. I am walking and doing a lot of things but I am not living like a normal preson. That is my life. I just wanted you to know.
I wasn't up to putting on pictures tonight. Maybe tomorrow. See you than I hope.
