FALL

Fall and all of it's beauty. I do love it.

The Virgina Creeper on my south fence is going to have fabulous color this year. Some is already showing in the brilliant reds and yellows Colorado is so noted for.

As you all know I have always had a dog of some breed or another sharing my life. Well this Summer it has turned into a small side business for me. All of the "PUPPY SITTING" jobs I have had this Summer have come about because the owners have not wanted to take their pets to a kennel as they have had bad experiences in the past. When I said "Yes that I would sit" I was not thinking about payment, but that is how it has turned out and it keeps me in what I call my Casino money.

My most current little guest was a Chihuahua, maybe 3 months old and her name is Izzy. OH the fun we did have as I treated her the way I have treated my own. I currently have a 10 year old female Chichuahua and a 3 year old Shelty/Blue Heeler cross. So before Izzy went home last week, the last 3 days she was here, we worked out in the yard, my two and her. Oh to see things through a puppies eyes. She loves my yard with a passion. I had a lots of laughter taking care of this little puppy. I will be sitting with her again for her owners have already asked and I have said Yes.

What is so amusing about this little side job of mine it has come about because of my love for animals. I had no idea I would even consider something like this, it just happened and I'm so glad that it just happened.

Life is good, life is great.
