Not Just Bears

Well I go Thursday to get a biopsy of my tongue. I've got nasty angry looking bumps on one side. And at times hurt so bad.So we will see. Nothing else new. I didn't get into the bear show. I'm so tired all the time...

Well My little girl is 5 months old. She has a bff that lives next door.Her name is Dixie Lou.They have a play date everyday for 2 hours. They are going to go to school together next week. I have been super busy with the both of them. I have started sewing again and am back to making my bears. I forgot how much I enjoy doing this. I just put an application in for a show in the spring so hopefully I get picked to participate...I'll know on the 26th.

I am getting my little girl in less than 2 weeks. She'll be 6 weeks old. The mom is having problems feeding 13 babies with razor sharp teeth. So much to do before she gets here.

Here is a couple of pictures of mama and the twins.

Well it has been a while since I posted. That was not my intention. I have been busy getting the place ready for my new baby!!! She is almost 4 weeks old and very beautiful. Her name is Abbie Rose. We are so excited!! I found a new vet to. One that is just down the road.     It has been so hot here.It's unbearable.Alls you can do is stay in the air conditioning.      Yesterday I had mama deer and her 2   babies lay down for about an hour in the back yard. It makes me feel so good that they feel safe there.       Everyone in the neighborhood is excited about Abby Rose. She is going to have a lot of people and dogs to meet.

Tomorrow is going to be a hard day without my little girl. Tom always got a card for me and said it was from her. I do miss my mom but growing up with her drinking and acting like a lunatic is really hard to wipe away from your memory. In her last years I had to take care of her all the time because of my worthless brothers. I never got to enjoy being with her. The roles we changed. I took care of her like a parent would. I really do miss my pop more. I really got close to him in his last years. I had to take care of him too. And I would do it all over again if I had too.  

The hummingbirds are back. I also have a pair of bluebirds nesting in the birdhouse on the tree in front of my living room window. They are so beautiful and brilliant. We planted more flowers on Danny's grave yesterday. The deer ate all of the pansies. I'll get a picture posted tomorrow. It really looks nice.

She loved to travel in her Cavalier.It was the only car she would get into.

I really do hope not having Danny gets easier as time moves on..I still think I have to go check on her on the porch still. My friends are doing a good job though of keeping me walking with them and their babies. Val lets me walk her retrievers Holly and Maveric. Kathy lets me walk with her and her baby Gunther. All of my neighbors say that their hearts break when they see me walk without Danny. Her and I walked on this road twice a day for 10 years. She was a very much loved little girl.

Well I thought spring was here but today sure doesn't resemble a spring day. It has been raining all day.That would be tolerable if it was warm. I never wanted the weather to be too warm because Danny couldn't tolerate the heat with her being a husky. With that not being the case anymore I'm ready for hot weather.

On a little bit happier note my ducks are back.They were waiting for me at the backyard gate. They both came running to me.It just amazes me that for 4 years these two come back time and time again.Papa has a certain marking on his chest that I can tell it is him.Just a wonderful feeling to see them each year.I hope they have babies again this year.They bring them to see me. How anyone can look at all of this wildlife and think that God doesn't exist is beyond me. We have deer and fox and ducks and birds galore.This beauty never ceases to amaze me.

My friend posted this for me on my facebook page... Thought of you .... I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep. I could see that you were crying...you found it hard to sleep. I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear. "It's me, I haven't left you...I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here." ... I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea. You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached down to me. I was with you at the shops today, your arms were getting sore. I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more. I was with you at my grave today, you tend it with such care. I want to reassure you that I am not lying there. I walked with you toward the house, as you fumbled for your key, I gently put my paw on you. I smiled and said, "It's me." You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know that I was standing there. It's possible for me t

It's been almost a year since I even visited my blog. Hopefully that will change now. It's been a very hard year. Danny needed 24 hour care. I watched her grow weaker and weaker. She finally quit eating and drinking water. We had to make that horrible decision to have her put to sleep. My heart is broken. We were blessed with her for 16 years. I lost a part of me that horrible day. It's been a month and it is still as bad as that day. We brought her home and buried her in our back yard between the apple trees.Everyone in the neighborhood is sad.She walked twice everyday and everyone knew her and loved her. I'm going to get back to making my bears.Hopefully keeping busy will help me heal.She couldn't be left for the past year so I never left her unless tom was here.I miss her needing me.She loved sitting on her lounger on the porch watching the neighbor hood.
