A jolly jape with a jolly ball
One of our horses, the delightful and effervescent Benney, had to be kept in a stable on box rest for a few days to recover from an injury. To ameliorate his boredom we bought him a Jolly Ball in the shape of a tetrahedron. It is made of highly robust plastic which he has dented but not broken. It has a hole in it through which treats like grass nuts can be put in and from which the horse can release them by moving it around the floor of the stable.

Caring for Your Furry Friend: A Guide to Proper Pet Care and Animal Welfare
"The Importance of Adopting Pets from Shelters" Adopting a pet from a shelter is one of the most rewarding and compassionate choices a pet owner can make. Not only does it provide a loving home for an animal in need, but it also helps to reduce the number of animals in shelters, and make room for more animals to be rescued.

The Watcher in the Window. Top Story - December 2022.
The outside world was unknown to her, but she could see a glimpse of it through the window in his room. Statuesque in her concentration, she gazed out it longingly, concentrating momentarily on the flies ticking and buzzing against the glass of her prison.

Donkey & Pig Show
Country life, farm living is the life for me. I can sometimes be a hermit, but I think most country folk can be as we tend to enjoy the peaceful surroundings of home. I have always felt that raising my children in Arroyo Seco was one of the best choices I made for them. I was that single working mom raising a family of four, and it had its moments, hurdles. Had it not been for me to find something to laugh about in the hardest of times, I never would have made it to where I am today. It shaped me into the woman and writer I have become.

Billy the Rooster
It's a love story that I want to share. It's too sweet to not be told. He is suave, cool, and a real Romeo and I can see why the chicks love him. By his strut, I can tell he knows it. I watch him while he's watching me. We have that eye contact thing going on. Every now and then he gives me that one-eyed side look as he pumps out his chest. That look that all chicks just love.
