” WOULD YOU LIKE A NEW FRIEND FOR THE HOUSE?”

Is how this all started on a FRIDAY afternoon!AS you know I lost my WINSTON in December and had been thinking of a new dog as the house is too calm without!However,my energy levels have dropped and I was thinking more of an older dog….and a bit smaller than a ROTTWEILER.

I told MY SON NICHOLAS let me think on it!

SO, I thought all of a few hours……….MY ITALIAN WAS ALREADY SOLD from the Get Go!

I had already had the vision the SON would gift me a dog for Mother’s Day a week before!

Whats the word for that Telepathic?

Meanwhile, THE FIRST BORN ARRIVED ON SATURDAY……..with these FLOWERS BELOW!

He was a SIGHT holding these and his DOG BUTTERS ran ahead to lick me!

ALMOST 61 year old ME and the 33 year old FIRST BORN.

I had planned to spend my weekend in the GARDEN of EDEN………HA HA! Opp’s ELIZABETH!!!

The French infants bed was ready……….with TOILE cushion. Little did I know I would have a petite GIRL to put in it!

I was taking a nap in the GARDEN when I heard……….”MOTHER MOTHER!”

As I pulled myself out of my deep slumber I saw this little thing pounding away behind my SECOND BORN!

NO HESITATION WHAT SO EVER in my mind NOW!

I AM 7 weeks old and the RUNT of a litter of 8.

I was BORN ON MARCH 19,2021

A YEAR AFTER THE PANDEMIC STARTED!

As I scroll instagram on a daily basis…………..I happened upon this which I LOVED!

(My new instagram name is Contessa and Her Pig)

Elsie was one of the FIRST INTERIOR DECORATORS and was an AMERICAN who got to live in the PETITE TRAINON on the grounds of VERSAILLES built in the 1700’s.

Now up for discussion was it the colors of this POST or the words THAT GRABBED MY ATTENTION?!!

Let’s just settle on BOTH!

MY home would be RUNNETH OVER with animals if I had my first choice along with garden relics of stone and statuary!

When we first moved into our house here in the STATES I so wanted to use cement GARDEN FURNITURE to fill the inside!

With velvet soft cushions to cushion ones posterior from the cement!

That was SHOT DOWN IMMEDIATELY by the PRACTICAL, LOGICAL ONE.

THE CEMENT CONTRACTOR THE ITALIAN HIMSELF!

His reasoning was the FOUNDATION of the 1940’s Home would NOT ALLOW THAT WEIGHT!

I still would LOVE to do this idea just to see…………..MY VISION!.

THRILLED TO SEE THE FIRST BORN!

I have AGED A LOT in these past months.

Have you ever noticed yourself in the mirror and said, “WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN?”

I tend to see MY MOTHER or GRANDMOTHER in myself.

This KID sent me a card too in the snail mail stating something like this is your 33rd Mother’s Day!

Which I LOVED.

MY NEIGHBORS ALWAYS INCLUDE US IN THEIR HOLIDAYS AS WELL!

I loved how the roses in the bouquet matched his shirt!

“PHOTO OP”

I SHRIEK!

A HAPPY Mother’s Day TO ME for a swap of FOUR LEMONS!

I think I got the BETTER DEAL!

SEE the RED ROSES?

They drive me MAD!

That is the PEACE ROSE so pink and yellow rose which is most likely 25 years old now…………..

WHY DO THE OLD ROSES GO BACK TO RED COLOR AND HOW DO YOU GET RID OF THAT?

ANYONE CARE TO EDUCATE ME?

From what I know I am STUCK WITH IT!

I will be cutting and bucketing RED through OUT SUMMER!

Maybe the deer will enjoy!

THIS LITTLE GIRL HAS STOLEN MY HEART!

SHE IS GOOD NAPPER JUST LIKE ME!

This child GOT GOOD HAIR!

He was over 10 pounds at birth and ATE EVERYTHING!

I HAD GOOD HAIR BUT NOT AS GOOD AS HIS!

This is HIS lovely side kick!

SHE LOVES ANIMALS AS MUCH AS I DO!

 

A GLIMPSE OF THE ITALIAN MAKING HIS PIZZA’S FOR DINNER!

BREAD made by THAT ITALIAN TOO!

 

AT this time we are still searching and asking for HELP in finding the perfect NAME!

I have a list going and I want to make the decision SOON!

She is very calm has NEVER CRIED!

Did growl TWICE when surprised by me and THE ITALIAN early morning!

BARKED once at me bringing in the food bowl for BANKSY!

AS far as those two it will take some time………..

Theodore comes in every morning and takes ONE LOOK and LEAVES!

We will get there…….I HOPE!

THANKS for TUNING IN TO THIS BLOG POST!

MY GARDEN IS POPPING AND I HOPE TO HAVE A FEW PHOTOS FOR YOU TO VIEW SHORTLY!

I WAIT ALL YEAR FOR THE MONTH of MAY and this year it GAVE BACK TENFOLD!
