It's a cold night with a beautiful ice mixed snow on the ground in Hazard, Kentucky tonight! We love the snow! I have 5 dogs now! Three are 90-103 pounds. As I am typing this one of the big girls has her head lying on my right shoulder. That would be my Molly girl. Molly was my sister Tammy's dog. If you have read my previous post you will know my sister passed away several years ago. One and half years ago Molly came to live with me and my pack of 4 at that time. I have had Molly's sister Charli Marie since she was 5 or 6 weeks old. These two gals are not twins, but certainly would pass for them. They were never raised together, but their mannerisms are so similar its scary. I have no doubt that they realize a connection between them. They will share a bowl of food, but growl at each other the entire time! They just give up and eat in peace. Any one that knows me knows that I could talk about my dogs all day. They bring me such joy and aggravations just like most human children do as toddlers! That is just it, I have 5 toddlers that will never grow out of that phase. At least not until they are very old and tired! I still have my Tara, the black and white Shih-tzu in my earlier blogs and photos. Tara is now 14 years old, in relatively good health. Squiggy a black and white pit/hound mix is new to the pack. He has been here several years now. He is my love! He is neurotic as Hell! The little Collie mix Candi is still here and happy and healthy. She was in the earlier blog entries years. My son is now 18! I can't believe how time has jumped so quickly. He is about 6 feet tall. Possibly 1/2 inch more.. He was just elated to be taller than I am. I may start blogging and posting more food pictures this year. I am still baking and cooking often. I have grown as a home chef so much over the last 10 years and still love it...It is my passion..
All keep warm and safe over the next week, word is more snow is coming and cold temps.
