Confusion and chaos are signs of the old structures of life breaking down so that something new can emerge. There is nothing inherently unspiritual in feeling confused. In fact, growth may not be possible without periods of chaos. ~ Mark Thurston Yesterday, Tuesday, was a heck of a day. But never mind. Deep breath and…
During the year of the snowless winter that sucketh, it was difficult for some citizens of the Minnesota kingdom to get excited about skijoring. Those people (like me) who tend to be more into the fun aspect of hooking up to a dog and having her bound down the trail, propelling them on their skis…
When I titled my post yesterday, I really wasn’t thinking about the lyrics to the song, which I’ve included below. More fitting than I realized. The Captain and Tennille were married in 1975 and, sigh, are still married. I wish I knew how to make that second verse work. No super powers for me. Love…
My dog Willow died in August of 2008. After more than a year of nursing her failing kidneys and the seizures she had, I ended up putting her down after she stopped eating and struggled to even get out of her bed. Right now, I sure could use the comfort and laughter Willow brought into…

Paint Girl – Java tries. She really needs a playmate more her size.
Ari – It’s tempting to let her play. My horses aren’t afraid of her and will only warn her if she starts to bug them. The problem comes if she’s ever around other horses. They might try to kick her and the horses’ owners might night be too thrilled either. Some people will shoot a dog that chases their animals.
Lori – I can keep the cat, dog, and one horse, but I can’t afford the board and care of two horses. I’ll keep both until the house sells anyway.
