Even in the rain the dogwoods and fresh green if the new leaves look beautiful.

Low lying clouds full of rain on the way home.

I spent nearly 10 minutes carefully checking each room trying to find Kota Kat. I eventually spied him in the washing machine. Must be fed up with cleaning himself since he's shedding and thought this might be a better alternative.

A truck made of wood, seen on my journey today to get plants for the patio.

Being chased by a big truck on the way to work. Scared me a little...

Noticed Maggi has her collection of chocolate in the IGA. But Cadbury still reigns supreme!

Getting really busy again at work, almost losing Alam amongst the piles of shirts here.

Rosie Lee snuggled up for the night.

Brand new leaves catching the late afternoon sun.

Getting my flower pots out of the shed ready for planting. The large one bottom right landed on my little toe which swelled up and is now completely black. I'll be hobbling for a few days...

The beautiful dogwoods are in full bloom at Meadow House.

We had Sticker Boy come visit us this afternoon. Addison is loved by all.

Jose Luis' dog, Sasha, came back from the groomers today looking very cute and happy to show her new outfit.

One of the awards I designed and had made for a client who was very pleased with them.

Farewell Detroit, it was a pleasure getting to know you.

Waiting at Charlotte, NC to board our plane to Detroit. Original direct flight from VA was cancelled and I was lucky to get this indirect option this evening. Many of the passengers from my original light did not get out tonight.

Spring is here and the blossoms are bursting forth with bulbs erupting from the ground.

Not sure that I'd want to stop here for breakfast even though it is on the way to work. Not really into smokey flavored foods.

There's some seriously ugly shoes out there at the moment, and it makes me chuckle thinking of the stupid females that actually think they are wonderful.
The article below gives some ludicrous examples of women sporting these shoes at an event which used to be a classy affair and is now a circus of rough tarts.

Not one well dressed woman in any of these photos. I'm sure the reporter and photographer had a good laugh...
P.S. I'm positive the electric blue dress with shawl photo is a man!

Rosie Lee investigating the exam table at the vets while waiting for her rabies shot.

Wish we'd had cool sidewalk chalks like this when we were kids.

Mum's Easter card arrived today, finally. But it's beautiful and will sit up on my shelf for a while yet.

For some odd reason I suddenly remembered a website from years ago, stuffonmycat.com, which I used to adore. So I thought we'd introduce Kota to a new hobby. This is first attempt, didn't he do well? More photos will follow in the future.

My grape hyacinths are blooming, spring has finally sprung.

The sun this morning slowly burning off the heavy fog from the night before.
