Amber Hates DST, Too.

I feel even more justified regarding my pet peeve, Daylight Savings Time, than I did when I wrote before.

We are still finding clocks to change. The last ones will be our vehicles

Amber shares my intense distaste for DST. She now runs around restlessly, whimpering at times, because we feed her, and our cat, Abby, at 7pm, right before we fix our own dinner. Her body clock tells her it is time for chow at 6pm now. She is very frustrated that we are asking her to adapt, still eating at 7.

Since I find it hard to adapt, as well as a pain in the rear to change all of our clocks, I shouldn’t be surprised that she is showing her upset, as well.

Good dog! :0)

Have I Told You I Love Owls?

Sunny Cheers

“The owl,” he was saying, “is one of the most curious creatures. A bird that stays awake when the rest of the world sleeps. They can see in the dark. I find that so interesting, to be mired in reality when the rest of the world is dreaming. What does he see and what does he know that the rest of the world is missing?”
~ M.J. Rose

stocksy.com-Brandon Alms

“He respects Owl, because you can’t help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn’t spell it right.” A.A. Milne

TessonTwitter.com

“I think I’m a tiny bit like Harry ‘cos I’d like to have an owl. Yeah, that’s the tiny bit, actually.”
~ Daniel Radcliffe

wattpad.com

“A wise old owl sat on an oak; The more he saw the less he spoke; The less he spoke the more he heard; Why aren’t we like that wise old bird?”

I particularly love these because of the poses. A dog lover can’t see these without breaking out into a great big grin.
