DKM Rant

How does something like this happen? It’s a school. This just devastates me.  To quote Frank Herbert - “No more terrible disaster could befall your people than for them to fall into the hands of a Hero.”

Texas school district to let teachers carry guns

I still feel the need to squee…

So here is a baby pic of Orlando and my favorite pictures of Fiona and Sophia (DKM)

We know we’ve not been visiting everyone’s blogs this week - we’ll be back next week.  ~DKM

When it all gets to be too much…

You squee at Orlando Bun ‘Tocks

SQUEEEEEEE!

Our hearts are broken

Tracey and family, you are in our thoughts.  The three months Violette was with us were unforgettable.

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then someone at my side says, “There, she is gone.”

“Gone where?”

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side, and she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says, “There, she is gone!” there are other eyes watching her coming, and there are other voices ready to take up the glad shout, “Here she comes!” And that is dying.

WCB - Easy Like Sunday Morning

In memory of Sher - we’re celebrating her life this morning with one of our favorites and hers… Tomato Salad.

We hit the market

Snagged some heirlooms

Tossed it on some mozza and greens - Cheers Sher!

DK - Here’s what I know… Zucchinis are creepy

& cooking is exhausting

I am so totally not stoned on nip…

Really… I didn’t steal the nip out of the snuggles getting ready to be mailed… really…

Purple haze all in my brain
scuse me while I kiss the sky

Priceless

Sound of the Nature’s Variety Venison can snapping open - $1.99

Sound of DKM’s squeal of disgust as the Nature’s Variety Venison juice sprays all over her face - Priceless.
