Take Time...

Old English Prayer
Take time to be friendly...
It is the road to happiness.
Take time to dream...
it is hitching your wagon to a star.
Take time to love and to be loved...
It is the privilege of the gods.
Take time to look around...
It is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to laugh...
It is the music of the soul.


under the same moon & stars,

Pollywog & peanut butters

The kids wore me down.
and so I did it.
and I love them!
I have been trolling craigs list.
day after day 
refresh
refresh
then there he was
2 years old chihuahua
welcome to my world
5 lbs of peanut butter and jelly

sadly for the kids, peanut butters would live in my pocket if I let him
basically he tolerates the kids when I'm around, 
only if I am unavailable will he go to them
so the hunt was on 
again
hello craigs list
refresh
refresh
then,
2 years old teddy bear dog to good home.
what the heck is a teddy bear dog?
answer: the sweetest most laid back, kid loving designer mutt you will ever know
welcome to the family Paul aka pollywog, aka polly wally doodle.
they have been wonderful.
when I hear my little monkeys laughing with the pups
it makes my heart happy
and when the kiddos are at school or one of the many other activities 
the pollywog and peanuts snuggle up with me and they make me smile.
