Well, I've adopted myself a dog for Christmas. Or I've given Lowrider the gift of a forever home.  Either way you want to look at it, Lowrider isn't going anywhere!  ❤ you, shawty.  🙂

Update on Tasha (Nappy):

Update on Tasha (Nappy):  She's getting around pretty great, I think.  Still has to stop and rest a bit, but that's not bad.  I think she got spoiled from all of her pampering - she would really prefer that her food and water be delivered to the couch on demand.  LOL  Done with antibiotics and pain meds.  We're going in on Monday to get her stitches out and to decide if we need to keep up with the joint shots or not.  All this time having her by herself and being still, I've got her all combed out and nice... on one side.  The other side that she sleeps on needs some work, though.  LOL

Well, looks like I've pissed my mother off just in time for Christmas.

Well, looks like I've pissed my mother off just in time for Christmas.

She actually just called me, told me about a situation, and then hung up on me because I didn't agree with her. I wish she could just see what's important regarding my niece.  The child is taken care of, my brother isn't trying to take her back, and everyone is ok - except for her. The family that has my niece extended an invitation for the holidays, and of course mom can't accept it graciously. She has to "finish" a conversation in a rude and hurtful way, thus isolating herself more. Sorry, mom, but if you did that to me every time we spoke, I wouldn't want you around, either. Accept the situation and get to be part of your granddaughter's life, or don't. Oh, and please realize that you probably don't know the whole truth, either. All any of us know is what we saw, and you weren't even there for that part of it. All you got is hear-say. I'm sorry.

Our Halloween pumpkin...

Our Halloween pumpkin that never quite graduated into a Jack-O-Lantern.  Thanks to Mary Beth he still has a purpose!  ❤

Happy Solstice and stuff.

Happy Solstice and stuff. Shaun is forcing me to go have fun now. ❤

Praise be to Jesus!

Ok, Saks, keep an eye out..

Ok, Saks, keep an eye out for someone looking for a place to hide.  The Salvation Army was just robbed and some skinny motherfucker was in my yard looking for a place to go.  (Cops said that was most likely who that was.  It's not like I have anything to take).  

I hate this neighborhood.

NOW... I need to chill the hell out and try to get some sleep.
