I hope that everyone has a wonderful Mother’s Day.

Mother's Day

M-O-T-H-E-R

by: Howard Johnson

"M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she’s growing old,
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold;
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she’ll always be,

Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.

 

I hope to be able to celebrate Mother’s Day with a little one of my own…

Maybe one day…

Ambien Texting

| By | Filed Under: husband | Leave a Comment

I take Ambien to help me stay asleep at night. Every now and then I take it and then something will distract me and I don’t go right to bed. Sometimes ridiculous things happen like online shopping…

…or the following conversation with my husband via text.

Me: I waited too long. I can’t find the bed bow

Me: It is a far ride

Me: I made it but it feel to floor. I got covers now. Say goodnight Heidi. Love husband T.

Me: Talk tosunday  Night er

Husband: Good night

Husband: I love u

Me: Night madness

Me: Love

Husband: Madness

Me: No it ok

Me: Left arrow to finger

Husband: Ok.

Me: Makes music to fish

Husband: How are u

Me: U is the letter

Husband: You

Me: Wendy says grate

Me: You yes

Husband: Who   What

Me: Who who

Me: Why are I typing

Husband: Will call u in a few

Me: Call then. Wood be grant

Me: Bring lemon pie

My question now is…where’s my lemon pie?

Diamond Pet Food Recall–Deja Vu

| By | Filed Under: recall, zoo | Leave a Comment

I swear I’m back in 2006 when I first heard about the Diamond pet food recall and all of the animals that were dying due to the poison_sign3-300x248containments found in their pet food. In 2005/6 it was aflatoxin.

In 2012 it’s Salmonella.

In 2006/7 we lost our two cats because we were naïve and didn’t know about pet foods. I didn’t know how dry pet foods are made. I honestly didn’t know any better.

But I do now.

Diamond pet foods are recalled once again. And they’ve expanded the recall twice. Need more information? Here’s a link: http://diamondpetrecall.com/diamond-expands-voluntary-recall/

Here are the brands that are included in the recall (so far):

  • Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover’s Soul
  • Country Value
  • Diamond
  • Diamond Naturals
  • Premium Edge
  • Professional
  • 4Health
  • Taste of the Wild

And here are the brands that Diamond makes:

This is one of those causes that I feel strongly about. Our animals rely on us to feed them and we rely on the pet food manufacturers to make food that’s not going to harm them. Yet, more dogs and cats and dying AGAIN.

Why? And when will it stop?

It’s not just Diamond either. Right now there is also a large recall on chicken jerky treats.

PLEASE, for the sake of your pet’s health…PLEASE feed your pet better food. Please pay attention to labels and where it is manufactured and what type of ingredients are in it. Do the research.

Your dog or cat will thank you.
