A Thankful Thanksgiving

November 26, 2009 – 10:38 pm

Do you know why I love Thanksgiving? Alright, besides all of the good food and seeing family. Its a time to remember of everything that I am thankful for and I cherish. I mean really we should all realize what we are thankful for everyday but sometimes we forget.

There is so much that I am thankful for. I am not going into deep detail because the list probably would never end. The main two people that I am thankful for are my mother and my grandma. I would not be the person that I am today if it was not for their guidance and love. My family may be small but its strong and we stick together through everything. Love is stronger than anything.Thanks mother and grandma.

Another thing I am thankful for are my furry family. They are always teaching me something through their patience, love and their unique personalities. They give so much love and sometimes more love than a lot of people out there. They may not talk but they really help guide me through life. Knowing that they will always love me and be there is all I need from them. Thanks Princess, Lady, Oliver and Callie.

Last thing that I am thankful for that I am going to share is Life. Sounds ridiculous? Well, its not. You never know when you could be taking your last walk, eating your last meal or even breathing your last breath. We all know life is short but sometimes we do not realize how short it can be. No one knows exactly when they are going to die. So, cherish every second of it and take every chance you get to enjoy it. Thanks God for giving me life.

It was a great day full of family time with my mom and grandma. Since, my grandma lives in an assistant living place my mom brought her over to our house for Thanksgiving. She had fun and enjoyed seeing me. Grandma has a tendency to repeat herself but what would you expect at her grand age. Hey, at least I will never forget our conversations. They are glued into my brain. She sure is one tough lady and enjoyed the food mom made. P.S. She thought it was Christmas. I guess she is excited for gifts. Do not worry Grandma, Christmas will be here shortly.

The only time you will ever see my mom spend hours in the kitchen cooking is for holidays like Thanksgiving. She is not a big cooker but when she does cook it tastes good. All the food was good today. Well, besides the zucchini, but thats because I dont like it. Eww. Icky. I did eat the turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, green beans and the mashed yams. I was stuffed after all that food. Probably gained a few pounds but thats alright. That will burn off pretty quickly.

I hope everyone had a nice thankful Thanksgiving like I did. Hope you all ate a lot and had a few laughs. I do hope you all took a moment and realized what you are truely thankful for. So, my question for you all is what is your favorite food to eat on Thanksgiving? Mine is stuffing. Its always yummy and good. Stay thankful. Peace.

Bath Day

November 23, 2009 – 10:29 pm

I spent most of my Saturday bathing the dogs. Killing the pesky fleas and making them smell good. The faces they gave me were so sad and cute at the same time that I could not resist grabbing my camera and photographing them. For your information they were not very fond of me for the rest of the day. Well, until it was dinner time and they became all lovey dovey. Dogs…gotta love them!

Dogs Are Inspiration

November 16, 2009 – 12:35 am

TheDogPrincess_09

There is a lot in life that inspires me to move forward and try to succeed. But dogs inspire me the most. With their eyes, expressions and just their passion to live in the day keeps me going. Princess who is in the photo above is my main guide in life. Thats my girl. The one I can hug hug hug and she will just stay where she is until I feel better. She has a lot of patience and that to me is very important in life. I use to be very impatient. At least when I was younger. I would go nuts if I did not get food in my stomach as soon as I was hungry. I may still be upset if I do not eat for a long time but I can wait now. I can sit in a restaurant and not throw utensils around and draw on walls. Okay, I never drew on walls when I was hungry but it sounded like something I would do if I had a crayon in my little hands.

Lady6_09

Speaking of food and being hungry, here is the Lady. Food freak of the pack. She inspires me to eat all I can. Just grab anything that is edible. She is right though. You never know when you could be living with no food. Just think of all the poor people in the world who search for a piece of bread everyday and thats how they live their life. She makes me thankful that I have food that I can eat and share with the pack. We take so much for granted in life and dont stop to realize how precious everything we have is.

PuppyFaceOliver_09

Ah, its Oliver. The spunky happy pill of the pack. He makes me laugh everyday someway or another. Oliver is such a inspiration to just live. He is so happy and playful. All he wants to do is live life. He takes every chance he can get out there and enjoy life. You all know the energizer bunny. Well, Oliver is the energizer puppy. So, if Oliver could talk to you all he would tell all of you to always have fun no matter how old you are. Live life to the fullest and just go crazy. Well, just not too crazy.

I took these photos of the pooches today. Sun was out for once so I grabbed my camera and took a lot of great photos of the pack. You can see the rest of the photos on my flickr page. There are a lot of new ones because I liked most of them I took today. I hope you do too. Let me know what you think of them and I would also like to know what is your inspirations in life. Everyone has atleast one even if you do not realize it. It could be anything that just inspires you one way or another. Well, I am going to listen to some tunes and surf the net for awhile until I am sleepy to sleep. Stay inspired. Peace.

Embrace the Weather

November 9, 2009 – 12:01 am

PepsiBottle_09

Its was gorgeous weather here in Jersey today. I opened my window and the weather was just amazing for fall time. The sun was shining high in the sky with no clouds and the warmth all around. If leaves were not falling from the ground I would of thought it was spring. The beauty of weather.

PepsiBottle1_09

So today I went on a nice long bicycle ride. Who could resist with beautiful weather that was here today. It is always good to be out and get sun. Vitamin D is important for your body and mind. Lets see. How far did I go. Eh. All the way to the end of the park and back. So, around sixteen miles. Yup. The proof? My sore knees. It was fun though. Seeing all the dogs walking and just great exercise. I always feel good after a bicycle ride.

CacoonPrincess1_09

Hehe. I took these two photos of Princess today. She was laying on a towel and I just could not resist wrapping her all up in it. She looked like she was in a cocoon for a dog. Princess is such a patient girl. Lets me do anything to her. Really though, she loves the attention. I love my girl.

Anyways, overall it was a nice four day weekend I had. Could not complain. Especially, if I get off school. Hehe. So, I saw two colleges this weekend, spent time with my mom and went on a nice long bicycle ride. Its been fun but now its soon over. Sadly there is school tomorrow. I am ready. Ready to put on my learning cap and act smart. I do hope all of you had a nice weekend. If you had nice weather also I hope you got out. Embrace the good weather before its gone. Well, its time for me to relax. Listen to some music and surf the internet until I get sleepy. Peace.

Happy Halloween

October 31, 2009 – 11:02 pm

DSC_0002

If you came over today you would of seen a ghost, devil, batman and a cinderella run by. Kids coming by with big smiles on their faces and carrying bags that look two times heavier than they are. Candy flying in every direction and wrappers all over. Our candy did not last long. That is also because we leave the candy out in a basket because of our crazy dogs. Kids come up and just take a handful. I bet the devil took it all. Hehe. I love Halloween because I can collect lots of snickers and reeses. So yummy! What is your favorite Halloween candy?

Princess and I enjoyed Halloween together. She and I went on a long walk, collecting candy together. I did not dress up but Princess did. I sprayed her with pink spray all over. She kinda gave me an evil look when I was done but she knew it would bring attention to her. Then before we went out I put on her dress and hat. She went out with style. Princess was a crazy Princess for Halloween. It sure made people look and lots of people wanted to pet her. She loved that. Miss attention stealer. If you have pets. What did you dress them up as?

Overall, it was a great Halloween. Spending time with Princess is always a plus to me. I bet her little paws got tired. Lucky her. Now she is curled up on my bed sleeping. Spoiled but she deserves it. Anyways, it is time to play some good music and hang out til I decide sleeping looks good. I hope everyone had a fun Halloween and ate some candy. Boo!

Lady of Light

October 26, 2009 – 10:54 pm

LadyOfLight17_09

A few days ago I was outside taking photographs because the sun was shining high in the sky. Just could not resist. So, when I came back inside lovely Lady was standing right in the sunlight, staring at me. She was excited that dinner time was close so she was barking and spinning around. Such a goofy girl. Well, since the sun was nice on her beautiful face I took a whole set of photos of her. She is the beauty of the family. Just photographed her as her self.

Arent they great photos? I love the lighting! Just love how they came out. Let me know what you think. Lady is so photogenic. She has such a sweet look to her face. Unless, she is having an attitude moment. Besides that she is a sweety. The goofy girl of the pack.

Anyways, my day was fine. Was nice weather. The sun shining with barely any clouds. Smell of fall in the air with red and yellow leaves falling. School was boring like normal but that is okay. Had fun anyways. Always learning something even if I do not realize it. TIme to play that music and relax til I feel like sleeping. Hope everyone has a nice Monday. I am glad it is almost over. I dislike Mondays but most people do. Stay warm and enjoy the fall colors before they are gone. Peace.

Gotta Have Love

October 21, 2009 – 11:43 pm

MomPrincessOliver1_09

Love is so important to our survival. You can deny it as much as possible that you dont need love to make you happy and to help you survive but you are lying to yourself. I use to always deny that you needed love until I accepted it into my life. I am not just talking about love from people. Animals give lots of love also. My dogs cover me in love. All they express is love love love.

For example, when I come home from a day that was not so great, my dogs are waiting to express their love to me. If that means snuggling with them, giving them treats or walking them. It is all love. Just the connection I have with them is all the love I need in the world.

MomPrincessOliver_09

Never forget that their is always someone out there who loves you. Even if you do not realize it. It could be a person or animal. Also, make sure to keep your heart open to accept love and give love. Giving love is just as important as recieving it. Showing people you love them will help them love you back. Do not just take it. Give it. Give it with your heart.

Anyways, hope you all had a love filled day. Mine was a boring but an alright day. Like the photos? Its my Mom, Princess and Oliver. They love to snuggle with each other. Time to relax and get some sleep. Atleast the week is almost over. I am going to listen to some music and slowly pass out. Stay happy and filled with love. Peace.

Self Portraits

Career Planning

October 6, 2009 – 10:01 pm

Self_Portrait_09After high school planning. Ah, that’s what senior year is all about. What do I want to do after high school? That is the big question of the year. Looking into some colleges and different types of courses. If I decide not to go to college I will get a job somewhere. I have a whole brain full of ideas. Just need to see which one I want to make my main career with. So many ideas. So much I could succeed at. Good thing I have time to decide what I want to do.

Half of the day I go to my regular school and then the other half I go to a technical school for dog grooming. I dont want to make dog grooming my main career. Plus it is way too much perfection for me to handle. I like to have that as a backup just in case I need to make some money at some point in my life. It is always good to have some kind of backup for an emergency. I will probably end up doing something with dogs or photography. Maybe even both. I will see where my life takes me and what there is for me.

Self portraits. I cannot resist them. Just lots of fun. I could take photos of me all day. Hehe. Even though I am definately not model material. It is just fun. I would not want to be a model anyways. Even if I was good looking as a model. So, I thought id share a self portrait with you. Enjoy.

Overall, my day was not bad. Just a regular day. Regular work. Regular gossip. Just a day of normality. Time to relax my mind and bones and listen to some music and surf the net until I fall asleep. *Sneeze*. Bless me. I hope you all had a good day of work or school. If you do not do either I hope your day was nice. Stay happy and healthy. Peace.

A Great Sunday

October 4, 2009 – 10:35 pm

442020082_1538150753_0What can I say. The title explains it. Ah, it has been beautiful weather here today. Just gorgeous. Clear skies and in the seventies. So, around two I went on a really long bicycle ride. Just me, my bicycle and my music through the park. It was lovely. Only thing that is annoying on the weekends is it can get crowded but it was not too bad today. Moving on. When I got home I rested a little bit and then I did my chores. I suprised my mom with doing the dishes and washing the floors. Im such a sweet daughter. Hehe. Then I took my dogs  for a lovely walked. They enjoyed it and so did I. So, that was mainly my day. It was enjoyable.

Its my mom and Princess. I took this photo with my camera phone tonight because just was a perfect shot. I couldn’t resist. Both of them together is a perfect picture. Anways, I have to wake up early for school tomorrow. Ugh. Darn. Someone turn time back just a little. Well, at least my classes are not bad classes. I am going relax for a little and then hit the sack because I need sleep. Hope you all had a nice weekend and an alright Monday. Peace.

A Friday Filled With Fun

October 2, 2009 – 11:45 pm

Sleeping_TogetherMy feet are tired. Just want to take them off. Well, that sounds weird. Never mind I will keep my feet on. Oh, why are they so tired? Well, my friends and I hung out all day after school from around 3ish til 10ish at night. Yes, oh it was fun. We went to town and just walked around and ate food. It was mad fun. Since we are so cool we played tag. Oh yes that is how special we are. We play a fun game. Haha. Its pretty awesome to play tag in the dark in town. No one could catch me. I can run run run! If you have not tried it I recommend you get off your ass and be a kid again. You will enjoy it. Good exercise. You will laugh a lot and remember laughing makes you live longer.

Look how cute this photo is. It is Princess and Callie sleeping together. Just adorable. I am very happy my dogs get along with Callie. Well, I need to get Lady use to her more but Lady has hope to get better with Callie. Luckily, Callie has a nice personality. She use to be scared of Princess and Oliver but now she jumps all over them. Callie is very entertaining. Question for people with a cat and a dog. Do your cats and dogs get along with each other?

Anyways, its been a sweet night. I hope every0nes Friday was nice. Did you do anything fun? I bet you are all excited for the weekend. Ah, the weekend. No alarm for school. It means I can. Well, if my body wants to be nice and let me. I hope so. Sleep is nice when you are sleepy. I am not sleepy yet but I will get there in a few hours. So, I am going to surf the net and catch up with some peeps I haven’t talked to all afternoon. If I do not hear from you I hope everyone has a nice weekend and stay safe. Peace.
