Our two ragamuffins.....

May I introduce the latest addition to our household.... 

Mitzi .... a 3 month old Miniature Maltese

and then there's 

Toto... the 1 year old Westie.... 

What was I thinking.... 

What's happening to me.....

Yesterday I was so domesticated 

it's scary!!!

I mailed boxes.. 

made Chili.....

went grocery shopping.....

changed linens ....

 (this is Joe's childhood quilt - I had it 

re-quilted for Christmas last year)

made hot cocoa with whipped cream .... 

started a fire.... 

brought in more firewood.... 

washed three loads of clothes.... 

OMG!!!!!

Just two exits down.....

It still amazes me that just two exits down 

from where we live, I can step back 

into another time.  Pretty amazing...
