The Gift of Giving

helping the homeless

It's so easy to Give from the Heart and feel good about what you gave. But where some get into trouble is, they Want in return. I'm not talking about a simple, "Thank You", which is the courteous and polite thing to do. I'm talking about those who Give for the wrong reasons: Bragging rights Wanting something in return (other than a simple "Thank You") Tax right off's A while back, a wrote a post Thank You. It's been over a year since I wrote that. For Christmas 2011, I donated blankets and several bags of kibble to Villalobos Rescue Center. You know the tv show, Pit Bulls and Parolees?

A Year In Review

A Year in My Life 2012

I know everyone is doing some kind of countdown to 2013 or a summary of the past year, so I decided to do A Year In Review for myself. Looking from the outside-in, I have evolved as a woman and have become a better person. One who I am proud to say I know. ;) I've become a bigger VOICE for, not only my own misjudged pit bull, but for others. I share my own experiences in hopes of changing just one persons perception of pit bulls. I share the fun and loving side of pit bulls via my blog Pibbles & Me; as well as the challenges I face with my boy. I learned it's ok to not have a dozen or more comments on my blog posts. The Page Views make … [Read more...]

…….It’s Another!

Isn't that just dandy?

Remember back when I posted If It's Not One Thing...... well, I might have jinxed myself! :( Today, the gas guy came out to look at my tank/heater issue. Yep, it's periodically doing a rumble rumble when it kicks on. So the guy comes out, yada yada yada and pretty much tells me the same thing my heater guy did. He amp'ed up the pressure on one of the tanks and said if that's not the issue, he'd have to come out and replace pipe going into the house..... to the Rinnai water heater! Apparently, when they, gas guys, installed it like 7 years ago, they used the existing pipe. That pipe was standard for the old water heater and furnace. The … [Read more...]

Social Media Burn Out?

Is it possible? I mean, can one do so much with social media that we actually get burnt out? Or is it that we just plain get bored? I took today off, as I had an appointment with my gas guy this morning, and now am being a couch potato watching movies and surfing the web. However, I find my mind wandering back and forth between both of my blogs and other social media networks. And I'm finding BOREDOM! Really? Even on my own blogs? Yep, I sure am! What does it mean? I dunno but with the upcoming New Year, I think I need to make some changes........ I'm just not sure what kind of changes are needed. I see a few of my blogger friends are … [Read more...]
