A Quote to Remember . . .

Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy; you can't build on it; it's only good for wallowing in. Katherine Mansfield

Our watch dog in action . . .

 
Summer is our dog's favorite season . . . the lizards are out and, according to Chick, need to be destroyed! Fortunately for all involved, lizards are usually much quicker than Chick and there aren't too many casualities. Chick will beg and beg for one of us to come out and play. Withing two minutes, she walks off and hunts for lizards. We don't know if we are boring or if the call of the wild is too much for her to resist.

Chick is peeved as she can't get into the garden enclosure and the lizards have learned that they can live more peacefully there while Chick can only stand outside the gate and glare at them. I'm sure they are shaking on their little feet.

Politicians and diets - both quotes all too true!

"Hell hath no fury like a bureaucrat scorned." -- Milton Friedman "My doctor told me to stop having intimate dinners for four. Unless there are three other people." -- Orson Welles
