Clean – Redecorated Digs
My fish aren’t saying much, but I’m hoping they are happy with the cleaning and redecorating I did of their digs today. Their water had become cloudy and changing the filter didn’t help, so today I relocated the four fish while I vacuumed the tank and gravel, put in new decorations, replaced the water with fresh, put in a new filter, etc.
Trying to take pictures of the fish in the tank is something for a much better photographer than I. There are four fish, although I rarely get them all in the same shot. There are three goldfish and one that is basically an off-white with one gold spot. I got them about a year ago and they have at least tripled in size.
They don’t ever say much, but they bunch up in the corner when it’s time for me to feed them, all wriggling their sweet little bodies and opening and closing their mouths. I say, “Hi, Little fishies!” and that’s it until the next feeding at the end of the day. No tricks. No real affection from them. But I love to watch them as they swim around the small tank.
“I” enjoy the fact that they have a different group of things to swim around and look at, so I’m hoping THEY like it, too.

Poor Molly
This is Molly after playing out in the rain and mud this morning. She was SO awful I had to bathe and try to dry her (three baths towels and the hair dryer) enough so she could be with the family again.
She was not happy about it, and was angry and pouting for about an hour afterwards, but just came and rubbed herself against me and snuggled. I put her on the leash and took both Molly and Amber out. There was much barking and running around, but then both dogs took care of things and we returned.
Here is Molly pouting awhile ago.
And here she is after snuggling. All is forgiven, and hopefully the rains will stop before she finds that wonderful hole again…

Raccoons

I love how raccoons LOOK. I DON’T like how they behave – at least not on our property.
We live on top of a ridge line on about 8 acres outside the town of Greenwood, Arkansas. We love the little world we’ve created, pretending we own all the land we can see. :0)
Almost every summer we have raccoons visiting. I would LIKE to say we enjoy this, but it’s a big pain. They won’t just be content sharing the sunflower seeds we put out for the birds on the deck. They eat ALL the seeds, making a mess, and then destroy the feeders!
Every year we go through the same thing – hoping that this year it will be different and we can all co-exist happily. We end up putting out our humane animal trap, baited with a cup of apple and peanut butter at the back of the trap. The raccoon eats all the seeds, destroys at least one – if not all – of the feeders, and then goes into the trap for the bait.
If our neighbors understood that WE are the ones relocating the raccoons out about 5 miles from us, onto their land for another chance at life, they would probably be quite hostile. We find a nice creek by the side of the road and then my husband opens the trap and lets the raccoon out.
Usually, if we have ONE, we have a whole family. We relocate them one by one, hoping that we’ve driven out far enough they won’t find their way back.
This past summer was quiet – quite a surprise. I was reminded of this when I saw these wonderful photos posted by Jeff Jett.

Training Amber – Or Trying
Our yellow lab, Amber, will be 2 years old in March. She weighs 94 pounds, and we’re still deciding who is training whom.
Lately, I’ve been trying to stop her from incessant barking when she goes outside.
- I’ve tried to have a serious discussion with her – explaining carefully that it’s rude to stand out there and bark. I’ve told her that it might bother neighbors, and that it drives ME crazy. I’ve explained to her that I won’t let her stay outside if she’s going to bark all the time. This is falling on deaf ears. She looks at me, looking as if she’s earnestly listening and absorbing my words. Then she goes out and the barking starts again.
- I’ve tried bringing her right back in – cutting her time out down to the bone. (She comes and asks to go out. I let her out. She starts barking. I make her come back in.) We do this over and over, but she doesn’t seem to ‘get’ the cause and effect and it’s wearing me out!
- Today we put the shock collar on her and THEN let her out. My husband is in the living room, reading, and he says he’ll shock her when he hears her barking. So far – it’s working! She seems to understand that we’re not just flapping our lips when the collar goes on.
I haven’t heard any barking yet, and she’s been out over 10 minutes now….
