Photo of the Day: June 15

It's been an insanely busy week at the newspaper and on my social calendar, so I'm a bit out of breath and run down. Today is a bit of a relaxing day, but I still have a couple of articles left to write - both of them huge, important, way-too-many-facts ones.
So, I thought: here's a picture of Kate making a Kate Face. Here, she is listening to a story that Stuart is telling about baking brownies while washing the dishes (even though it was Stuart's turn to do them). I've seen this face enough times to know that this is her: "OMG THAT SOUNDS SO DELICIOUS!! I WANT TO EAT IT NOW!!" But, there's no way I could copy it myself.

Movie Minute: How to Fry Fish Fillets

My boyfriend Stuart teaches how to fry fish fillets! Well, he tries until the camera runs out of memory in its SD card!

This big guy is Hoss Jr. He's only three months old and already weighs more than any adult puntable-sized toy dog. He is a mix between a Great Dane and a Mastiff, and he's got no idea how big he really is!!!! He also has a heart of gold!

This is my new favorite dog at the animal shelter. Her name is Streets, and she is a terrier mix with a HUGE heart!!! I really hope she gets to go to a good home with kids because she loves to snuggle and play, play, play!! Definitely a dog worth rescuing.

Well, I finally did it. I finally founded a little kitten who needed my help. Coincidental thing was... she was only a few feet away from the animal shelter!! A small calico kitten was hiding in the woods right beside the gate for the shelter. While Stuart and I were walking the dogs up and down the drive as we volunteered today, we heard a strange noise coming from a pile of fallen wood. The dogs also went crazy trying to get at the wood. We took the kennel assistant down to the spot, and there we found the fuzzy kitten!!!
I named her Ivy because she was next to a large patch of poison ivy. I was so excited because it's the first time I've been allowed to name an animal!! I hope she finds a home soon!!All she wanted to do was be petted and cuddled, which is surprising for a stray.

Kodak Moment: New Home

It's been a slow process of unpacking this time around. I just don't have the energy to unpack my things once again, so we're taking it day by day.
Here are some photos from the new place!! We may not have mini horses and llamas this time, but we do have some cool wildlife!!

Movie Minute: Constructing a High Rise Top for a Hamster Cage

Now, this cage topper thing was WAY MORE COMPLICATED than it ever needed to be thanks to the design of having to construct the darn thing through the one-arm wide lid!!! An extreme pain, I must say... but Nutmeg LOVES it!! I was very proud that Stuart and I worked well together and didn't have any disagreements while constructing this frustrating contraption.
