This is the first time I've ever seen a lizard sleeping. He looks so comfortable on our rake.


my new tattoo :-)


today was a great day! we got a check at work...not our christmas bonus check that we already got and not our paycheck. but the company received a huge settlement from an insurance claim and decided what better to do with it than share it with us. Before taxes it was $2,500, after the government got their share we got $1,558. WOOHOO. That will pay off my IPOD. Now what to do with the rest of it..hee hee
awesome day. And me and my friend Mark talked and we worked stuff out. we are going to be friends for now. who knows what will happen later on down the road but friends is great for me right now.

My little Abby squirrel, the one I stepped on, has been acting all spastic here just the past couple of days. I'm not sure what is going on with her but when she's in the cage she is running around and around. And then when I let her out she sit in front of the mirror going back and fourth. And then she will even get back in the cage and start going back and fourth. I don't know what's going on, I haven't changed her diet any and Katie is eating the same thing she is. I wonder if I messed up something in her little head from the accident.
I'm thinking about calling the vet this week and see what she says, if she can recommend something that may calm her down a tad. Do they make ridilan (can't spell that) for squirrels? :-)

You're not crying, at least not yet. You are either
just holding back the tears because you're
ashamed. Or you really do have a happy life and
don't know why you're feeling sad or angry.
Maybe you're just feeling unsatisfied with
life. Remember that only you can change that.
Why are you crying? (beautiful pics)

I have good news to report, Squeaky made it through the night and she took her antibiotic's this morning with not much trouble. She also took a little water. She seems to be moving around alot better, because when I went to get her to take her medicine she come out and went running around the bathroom. Scared the crap out of me more than anything, I was scared she was going to hurt herself. But I got her calmed down and she took her medicine. But she made it through the night and that was what I was really worried about.
I'm hoping that she will be all better by Thanksgiving so we can have our Thanksgiving fest. We will have alot to be thankful for.

I have to ask all of you a favor. Today Me and my squirrel Squeaky had an accident...she was out running around on the floor playing and she ran towards me as I was walking and I stepped on her. I didn't put all my weight on her but enough to do damage. She has a pretty bad concussion. The vet gave her a shot of antibiotics mixed with steroids and something else I can't remember. She said now it's just a wait and see, 24 hour thing now.
Squeaky has been showing some good signs though, she hasn't had any seizures and she has sat up a couple of times to clean herself. She took some water when I got home and a little Nutra-Cal that the vet gave me to give to her.
I could've went my whole life without this happening. My day went so well, and then I come home around 5:00 and let them all out and this happens.
Now for my favor that I ask all of ya'll. If you could please keep Squeaky in your thoughts and prayers, I would greatly appreciate it. I will keep ya posted on how she is coming along.
Thank you
Holly

jloopy let me know that this was a hoax, they are not made of candy but of some type of clay. The artist website is in the comments for this post.
I want one of each! There is no way I could eat one, they are to cute and perfect. Lovely candies. Would be great for a baby shower. Haven't found anywhere on the net yet where you can buy them though.. :-(

You Are A: Groundhog!
Groundhogs are cuddly-looking and timid mammals that eat mostly grass, seeds, and other vegetation. As a groundhog you will rarely stray far from your burrow and will run in the face of danger, but you will defend their home fiercely from predators. Groundhogs are even given their own holiday in the US, during which a groundhog is said to predict how long winter weather will last!You were almost a: Chipmunk or a Duckling
You are least like a: Pony or a PuppyTake the Cute Animal Test
Thank God we made it through that terrible Hurricane Katrina. We just got our power back today. And even though for the past 4 days that we were without power and it was hot as hell, we didn't complain that much because we have ALOT to be thankful for. God spared us from the worst part. Some parts of Alabama did get it pretty bad, Dauphin Island, Bayou LaBatre and other areas that were close to the water or flood prone areas.
I pray for the people in Louisiana, Mississippi & Alabama.
OH, and I have 5 new baby squirrels to care for. :-)

I don't know if all of you are aware of this, but this cruel, inhumane killings of baby seals is going on as I type. And it's not stopping. Some of the pictures that I've seen, have broken my heart more than anything ever has. Read Below
Dear Holly,
Thank you for your past support in signing the "Stop
Canada's Cruel and Senseless Seal Hunt" petition. We
thought you'd be interested in an update from the field
from the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW):
With the first phase of Canada's annual seal hunt in the
Gulf of St. Lawrence now over, more than 105,000 seals
have been killed. Spectacular ice floes transformed into
giant white nurseries just weeks ago are now stained red
with the blood of seal carcasses as far as the eye can
see. Last week they began killing another 200,000 seals
in Newfoundland.
The Canadian government maintains that the hunt is humane.
But our observers returning from the ice have witnessed
numerous acts of cruelty and suffering, from clubbed baby
seals left in agony while hunters move quickly onto the
next seal, to seals shot and left to die a slow death
under the ice. As IFAW's video footage shows, the seal
hunt continues to inflict unnecessary suffering and cruelty
to baby seals as young as 12 days old.
________________________________________ ___________
Thanks to your earlier efforts, we have made great strides
in building the international outrage needed to end the
slaughter.
But we need your help to intensify the pressure on Canada's
government to end the hunt!
Now it's your turn to help take action againist this brutality
Dear Friends,
I have just read and signed the petition:
"Stop Canada's Cruel and Senseless Seal Hunt" from The
International Fund for Animal Welfare:
http://www.care2.com/go/z/23181
Many people are unaware that hundreds of thousands of
baby seals are still being cruelly killed each year mainly
for their fur -- frivolous luxury items that no one really
needs! Please help by speaking out against the largest
government sanctioned slaughter of marine mammals
in the world by signing this petition.
Every voice raised against such a cruel and unnecessary
hunt is critical to raising the public pressure needed to
convince the Canadian government to change.
Go here to sign petition, PLEASE
Thank you!
