My best friend

The best parts about my best friend are, the love we share is seen in our actions. One look at us walking in our neighborhood, you’ll see we are like two peas in a pod and we respect each other too much to push and other to far, knowing we aren't the same. However we make each other feel safe no matter where we go or what we do. We spend every day looking forward to what we’ll do together. We face each challenge before us head on, when I fall my best friend is always beside me offering support, standing firm on his four legs until I’m standing on my two feet once again. The best part of our friendship is he understands my limitations can get me down. Knowing he needs me, as much as I need him, makes it easier to stay positive and let the negative fall away. Negative energy burns too hot and out too fast, to be useful anyway.

Downtown Minneapolis skyline taken form the Lake Street bridge, over the Mississippi River. On a walk Nacho and I took together this week. It's been warm here, so much of the snow we had has melted away, Nacho and I have been able to go for so nice long slow walks.

Dislike when it starts out with...

... And I was doing so good! Of course we all have days like this.  I'm slowly getting over being sick, trying to take it easy not something I'm very good at. With many things I want to do but none are things I need to do! Not yet on solid food however, I will be soon if I keep doing the things I should and not the things I want to. It's nothing I did caught a bug putting my body into to a tailspin. Now that I'm able to sit up longer at the computer, it won't be long until I'll be playing in the garden dirt a bit late but that's okay. So Haven't been posting much anywhere until Friday. I've had a scanner for over a year finally learned how to use.

Here are a few old pictures of my Mom, and our home in Amery, WI. been missing the open sky's of home. After being stuck in the house so long!

Picture was taken in 1977 

This is Tony he fell for his nest, his eyes weren't even open when he decided, I was his Mommy. Did my best to teach him how to be a squirrel, he was never a pet. Once he was strong enough he moved and spent the rest of his life living in our backyard trees. Only squirrel our dog Rusty nerve chased, and he hated squirrels as much if not more then the mailman. 

This was taken at our family reunion in 2009

With Granddaughter Katie, Mom-Grandma and Nick

Everyone who could come had a great time!

The wild life.

Moved back to Minneapolis, Minnesota. In the fall of 2007 so I would be closer to V.A. Hospital. Miss it the most when I stuck in the house for too long. Now we live in a place that works great for me, and no one needs to worry about me, being so far away from a Doctors care. Jane loves the 10 to 15 minute commute instead of an hour and a half to and from her work in Minneapolis.
