PEACE IN THE AIR

It's as simple

 as going for a walk

and absorbing everything around you.

Feel the air

Smell the air

Taste the air 

Hear the air

Imagine the air 

These flags greet us every morning 

as we open the side door to enter the garden.

So quiet and peaceful

spreading words of joy and love 

through the air.

~ You really can feel it ~

So by the time we reach the beach 

we have enough to share 

with everyone we meet.

HAVE A MERRY DANCING CHRISTMAS ✰¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪

Listen Up,

just grab your partner

and

 hold them tight

'cause teddy is watching

as you funk it up ~

HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS 

EVERYONE 

♫♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸♥ ✰¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪

JUST CALL ME A BIG TEASE

Word is out.

Word has it.

Yup

I am a big tease!
Just look at these big eyes.
Nothing but a big tease
when you look into them, eh !

SAND ~ SEAWEED & ROSES

The unusual

the 'out of the norm'

the splendidly colourful

is what we found on the beach recently ~

laying scattered all over the sand.

Mr. Orangie was most intrigued

checking out these roses 

snuggled up with the seaweed and rocks.

The ocean was persistent

pushing more and more waves

onto the sand and rocks

leaving the roses smothered in bubbles.

How they got here is anybody's guess, really.

What do you think caused the invasion of the pink/red roses
on this blue/grey day?
Dean Martin will serenade you as you figure this one out.
ENJOY !!

SEAFOAM LATTE?

Light as a feather
moving with the tides
over the rocks
with the help of the breezes

Is this too much?

Hi everyone!
It's Jim and myself
checking out the seafoam
smothering the shoreline again.

See what I mean !!

This really makes me want to have a latte
since the fresh air
and
walk warrant it.
Wouldn't you agree?

RESPECT ?

Tripping along minding my own beeswax

that's all I was doing

honest

when from out of the blue ~

this little munchkin

covered in a mini-Hudson's Bay baby blanket

(at least that's what it looked like to me)

started growling at me 

imagine 

the nerve 

the outright audacity

a circle dance ensued

it's a good thing Mr. Orangie

was stuffed in my mouth

I'm just sayin'

SHEEH ,
it's so hard to get some respect around here,
I get more RESPECT from my girlfriend Aretha  •*¨*•♫♪

SOPHIE INCOGNITO

SHHHhhhh !!

~~ it's me INCOGNITO ~~

I have my eye on this patrol car

because they are eating

and I have on my new jacket!!!!!

Now I'm at the park

as the shadows hide me 

as I stealthily trek my way 

down the paths.

Do you see what's on my back?

Yup, it's my new PURPLE JACKET ~

suiting me and Mr. Orangie just fine

keeping us nice and warm

as Jim leads me past the frozen pond

yes Jim 

it is very frozen

it's December 

in Nova Scotia

REMEMBER

~~

So I think everyone should 

♪♫•*¨*•"start wearing purple"•*¨*•♫♪

because it'll perk you up on a cold winter's day.

Check out the video and you'll see why.

just a little gypsy punk
for all you eclectic music lovers
ENJOY!!

I AM BLESSED

Fridays, come around so very quickly in my neck of the woods 

as Jim approaches 

COUNTRY CRITTER SITTERS

doorstep as he drops me off for the day.

Mary and Stephanie

keep a diary of the day's goings on

which you can view and read 

at this link . <

^^

(click the word link to open your eyes even wider)

Take a moment and you'll see how much fun I truly have.

  I got to visit all my friends

~ doggies, horses and humans ~

alike at the daycare on the hill.

At the end of my stay today,

Owen (left) and 2 look-a-likes 

greet Ron and Jim as they come to pick me up.

Isaac gives them a woof

and

says everything's OK

and that I'm allowed to go home.

 This amply full little birdhouse

 of warm feathers and such

seems to add to the feeling here ~

a feeling of serenity amongst the canines and ~ 

and horses,

Tony, Tallen and Topaz

always keeping their eyes open for me

because I can get mighty frisky with them.

They just ignore me though.

The sun is setting as I mosey to the car

and curl up in the backseat

realizing that I am so fortunate to be able 

to take this all in one more time.

Never take anything for granted, folks.

NEVER !!

HARLEY, MY NEW LOVE •*¨*•.¸¸♥

May I introduce you to my new DBFF 

(Doodle Boyfriend Forever)

~ HARLEY ~

(as in Harley Davidson apparently)

He is sniffing me while his Grandparents

Corinne and Walter 

smile at Jim as he snaps our pictures.

We played and swam as hard as any Doodle could play

because Harley's a Doodle too.

 Neck chewing is part of our ritual

while the adults walk along the Atlantic View Trail.

But my best moment on the whole walk was the 2 step with Harley.

I SEE YOU.

He was so frisky

and

I mean frisky.

See what I mean !

What's a girl supposed to do anyway.

Phew, I got out of that one quickly.

Harley is in love, me thinks.

He's a youngster just about a year old

and

I will be 8 years old in February.

Does that make me a cougar?

Let's get out of here Ron.

I am totally exhausted 

after that romp in the hay.

PS: all photos are taken by Daddy Jim

♪♫•*¨*• SWAY .•*¨*•♫♪ WITH ME SWEETIE ♫♪

I love dancing 

ever since that day

Daddy Jim picked me up

and 

we began to sway.

I was only 2 months old

and 

fell in love with 2 guys

who love to dance.

AS I SAID ~~~~

~ Thank you for your patience ~

Never take a day for granted,

especially when the weather is so warm 

and

so beautiful 

at the beginning of December 

in Nova Scotia

 I am totally amazed at the view below as usual

but with an added pleasure

not usually seen

this time of year ~

~ a lone parasurfer

at ease with the waters

and

salty breezes

with a slight fog mist

covering everything

in sight.

~ at one with nature ~

~ hand raised in triumph ~

~ heading off into the sunset ~

 ~ to return instantly on a 180,

churning caramel waves

in his trail ~

So glad to see you Jim.
There's loads to see.

Hey Jim?

Don't fall over the edge.

I know the view can really mesmerize you.
