Dogs, Dogs, Dogs

What is your favorite animal?

Without a doubt, dogs are my favorite animal. At the moment, I have two. Both are rescues. Croc is an enormous mastiff/lab mix. He looks big and mean but is super-sweet. He adores children and babies. When he’s fortunate enough to have a young visitor, he just prostrates himself in front of of them begging for their attention.

Here he is with his Christmas blanket.

Izzy is our little guy. He came to us because he’s a runner. He strayed up to a woman’s house and she fostered him till my niece, a rural mail carrier told us about him.

Izzy specializes in lap-sitting and yapping.

Online

In what ways do you communicate online?

I use email, WordPress , and post writing my writing on Facebook.

Sausage Biscuit

What snack would you eat right now?

If someone showed up at my door right now with a sausage biscuit right now, there is no way I could say “No.” Even better, nothing compares to a homemade biscuit hot out of the oven. When I was a kid, Mother made biscuits twice a day. At the time, I had no idea how hard that was for her. Thank you, Mother

Business

Come up with a crazy business idea.

Coming up with a business idea would be crazy. I am happily retired.

Love at First Sight

Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?

It was true love when I found this little guy under the Christmas tree. He was my constant companion. He was part of every game, sat on the chair with me while I ate, and slept with me. I even sneaked him into the bath with me, a hard lesson since it took him a couple of days to dry on the clothes line.

He tragically went missing one day. My search was futile. I moved on. Long afterwards, I found his tattered remains in the yard where the dogs had destroyed him. My heart broke all over.

Mission

What is your mission?

I hope I leave the world a better place.

Living Long

What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?

Like most, I would only like to live a very long life If I were able to take care of myself. I don’t want to be a burden to anyone.

Organization

What could you do differently?

I could and should organize my writing. I am totally spontaneous plunging headlong into whatever is on my mind. That works just fine except it leaves me with a mass of material that I have intentions of getting in a book. I will prioritize organization.

Billboard

If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

I hate freeway billboards.
