A Hot Summer in Oklahoma

Boy oh Boy...it is already very hot in Oklahoma! Today was 94 and kind of humid. It's so hot..that I want a swimming pool. I used to have a big blue one with a slide and I LOVED it. I used to get into trouble for trying to run and jump into in it. I would start out fast and run up the side. My family would get upset because they thought that I might hurt myself. I probably would have so I am glad that they are very protective over me and my health. I am an inside doggie but I sure do pray and think of those pups and kitties outside.
I want to share a short story with you: My mom and I leave out water for the stray dog...that we sort of adopted. She is a sweetheart of an older dog. We call her Lola (after the the Flintstones cartoon)
We love having her out here with us because she keeps the unwanted critters out of our yard. We always check on her in the morning and at night. We are very thankful for Lola and her friendship. Lola makes the summer cooler and we love hanging out with her. I look forward to sharing her picture with all of you. She is like a Big sister to me. We are not sure of her breed. She loves blue, she loves the water sprinkler, and she loves to eat meatloaf. I hope that all of my friends on Dogster will welcome her. Anyway,
to all of the pups and kitties Please have a Safe and COOL SUMMER!
Woof! Woof! Tail WAGS to you.

April Showers Bring May Flowers

April Showers bring May Flowers. I hope that this is True. We just spent the past 48 hours worried about the Oklahoma Tornados. So Here is tipping my hat off to the wonderful Creator for not letting those horrible tornadoes hurt us. I thank the Good Lord above. I have faith and believe in Prayer.

I Do Not Love You Except Because I Love You

I do not love you except because I love you;
I go from loving to not loving you,
From waiting to not waiting for you
My heart moves from cold to fire.

I love you only because it's you the one I love;
I hate you deeply, and hating you
Bend to you, and the measure of my changing love for you
Is that I do not see you but love you blindly.

Maybe January light will consume
My heart with its cruel
Ray, stealing my key to true calm.

In this part of the story I am the one who
Dies, the only one, and I will die of love because I love you,
Because I love you, Love, in fire and blood.
Pablo Neruda

St. Patrick's Day

Saint Patrick is most known for driving the snakes from Ireland. It is true there are no snakes in Ireland, but there probably never have been - the island was separated from the rest of the continent at the end of the Ice Age. As in many old pagan religions, serpent symbols were common and often worshipped. Driving the snakes from Ireland was probably symbolic of putting an end to that pagan practice. While not the first to bring christianity to Ireland, it is Patrick who is said to have encountered the Druids at Tara and abolished their pagan rites. The story holds that he converted the warrior chiefs and princes, baptizing them and thousands of their subjects in the "Holy Wells" that still bear this name.

There are several accounts of Saint Patrick's death. One says that Patrick died at Saul, Downpatrick, Ireland, on March 17, 460 A.D. His jawbone was preserved in a silver shrine and was often requested in times of childbirth, epileptic fits, and as a preservative against the "evil eye." Another account says that St. Patrick ended his days at Glastonbury, England and was buried there. The Chapel of St. Patrick still exists as part of Glastonbury Abbey. Today, many Catholic places of worship all around the world are named after St. Patrick, including cathedrals in New York and Dublin city

Love is in the air.....Rufus takes time to read this to- you.Dr. Scooter. my BFF

A BLUE STAR IN YOUR EYES

Author: Jo'Lene Tover

On the wings of an eagle,
My love for you flies.
Soaring higher and higher,
And touching the skies.

I reached up above,
And pulled a star from the sky.
To place it within,
Your precious minds eye.

To dwell there forever,
As my love for you.
On the wings of our love,
Enduring and true.

I honor you my darling,
With all that I am.
Please darling please,
Will you be my man?

There are so many things,
My heart wants to say.
I love you sweetheart,
There is no other way.

Valentines Dinner

Looking forward to the best Valentine's Dinner next weekend! More to come...

Valentines Day Cake

Today, I wanted to find the Perfect Valentines Present for my sweet Darling Dr. Scooter. My sister and I baked a fresh homemade Valentines Day cake for her.
(You will see the cake in the picture #2) I hope that Dr. Scooter likes her cake that I baked for her special day.
Originally, I had planned to buy a present but I shopped all day on the internet for the perfect gift for her. However, I did not have any luck finding the perfect gift for her.
My sister thought that I should bake her a cake. Of course, my sister helped me...because I do not have thumbs to frost the cake.
I think that my cake looks really delicious. It's a chocolate fudge cake with chocolate pudding the center and strawberry cream frosting with little heart sprinkles.
Tomorrow morning I plan to send my cake to Dr. Scooter.
P.S. I hope that the postmaster does not eat it before Scooter gets it. BOL

New Year 2012 What will it bring? Christmas time should be- all year!

Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year

Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share

Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there

Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year.
