Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends...

You remember the deal with the True Platinum Mosaic boy, Rigel? Well apparently Tracy's buyer went south... fast! She messaged me about her and said that she kept changing her mind and arrangements and that it wasn't going to work out. She finished with a, "He's supposed to be yours." Made my day, but also made me sad that Tracy wont get the money she was wanting for him.

Have I mentioned that Rigel's new name will be Castiel? I'll probably only refer to him as Cas, or Castiel from now on. And yes, that's a side effect of watching TOO much Supernatural!

The girl that was going to get Rigel... excuse me, the girl that was going to get CAS caused a huge uproar in the glider community. She posted in one of the sugar glider groups on Facebook about breeding her unlineaged Albino het. Big NO NO! Breeding an unlineaged Albino is like trying to justify marriage to your 1st cousin. It's just not right and shouldn't happen! There's only one Albino line after all, so no matter what, all Albinos and Albino hets are related.

I actually think she was asking to purchase a glider to pair with hers, but whatever. Several people joined in the conversation and it just spiraled downward from there. She even got her breeder to come join in on all that fun. Man is she something else! I kept my eyes glued to the computer screen for 2 hours waiting on someone new to post something. It's like watching a new Die Hard movie, you never know what's going to happen!

The drama in the glider community never ends. 

I'm rarely ever on any of the glider forums anymore mainly because of this kind of stuff. There's always someone out there just waiting for someone to screw up. Especially new people! That's like dropping a virgin into a prison full of death row inmates! 

Okay, I'm done with glider talk for now.

Believe it or not, we STILL don't have those damn sets sewn up! We got 90% of one set sewn, but it's still not completely finished. When I woke up today, I had full intentions of sewing, but that thought slowly dwindled after I got some coffee in me. It's like coffee mellows me out instead of pumping me up. It's weird.

I did get that new square hammock sewn up yesterday and took pictures of it today. It actually turned out pretty awesome, but man is it a bitch to sew! It's made up of 4 fringe vines, so keeping those nice and straight inside the square hammock is a daunting task. Those gliders better like it!

Unfortunately, the sets still wont be sewn up tomorrow either. LaVaughn and my aunt both have to go back to the dentist for touch ups or something. And you guessed it, I'm the lucky dame that gets to drive them there and back again. It's a good thing a stop at the pet store is in order. They're open on Wednesdays!

Oh my God, I can't believe I forgot to mention this! That fucking dick head dog, Carly, killed my precious Serafina today... :( I'm at the point now where I want to just drown the damn dog in the lake. She's killed so many chickens and ducks, it's not even right. The thought of it makes me sick to my stomach and I just want to strangle her to death.

And now I'm done...

Love & Peace

Here are the photos of the Platform that I'm working on:

Not too shabby, eh?

Free at last...

Today was the first day in months that the fowl have been able to leave their pin and roam the yard. I don't believe I ever wrote about it, but the demon dog next door (Carly) killed 65% of District 9's inhabitants. I'm not going to rehash about what happened, so take my word that it was awful, disgusting and range inducing. I love animals more than anyone, but if I could have got my hands on that dog, I would have strangled her to death!

Okay, so not going there! The chickens, ducks and turkey all had so much fun today. They ran around eating bugs and grass, it was so nice to see. I wanted to stay outside for an hour and take photos of them, but decided that just a few would be okay and let them be. I definitely didn't want to ruin their first day out by chasing them around the yard with a camera, lol.

Love & Peace

Song of the day: Lonely Is The Night by Billy Squire  (so what, I have a song of the day again!)

 He loves being out.

Just look at Mr. Friendly's pretty face!

Camille's such a looker -- and super good bug catcher. :)

She's also very stunning to look at. 

Harley, being is pretty duckie self. 

And there's Miss Serafina next to him.

That would be Maggie May in front of Camille.

And lastly, our sugar glider girls: Violet (top) and Chloe (bottom).

What a lovely day for some photos...

The feeling very rarely strikes me anymore, but when it does - I can't contain myself! I've had SO much on my mind the past couple months, it's just put me in the state of depression and forces me to hate doing the things that I love. Some days, I push past those feelings and do them anyway. Like today, for example.

I remember the days of old when I wasn't so photo hungry. I think the most photos I ever posted on one of my blogs was maybe 20-30. And that was a LOT back then. Today, the majority of my blogs don't have under 20. I sometimes wonder if it's my photo obsession that puts a damper on my blogging. Who knows, really. I do know one thing - as long as I'm able to take photos, I'll take as many as humanly possible!

Love & Peace

Stretchy dog!

Such a pretty face.

This looks like a mugshot to me.

Yawn!

More yawn, lol.

And now time for a nap.

Beautiful ivy.

I don't know why, but I love the way ivy looks against concrete.

Probably my favorite shot of the vines.

I like this one a lot too.

An old Jane Eyre book. This was a gift from my aunt.

Inside of Jane Eyre... wait, that sounded dirty.

Una rubbing on her favorite dog.

Milla's guilty face.

BBQ Daze...

I woke up today with an unexpected invitation to a BBQ at my aunts house. I actually didn't even intend on staying as long as I did, but it was a good time. It's been forever and a day since I've gone to and/or had a BBQ, but it is nearly summer, so I guess I'm going to have to get back into the swing of things. And believe me,  I would way rather spend my days outdoors with a nice, refreshing beverage and opposed to a hospital.

Okay, well I've rambled on into nothingness for no apparent reason, so I guess it's time to bid you adieu. Until next time...

Love & Peace

Song of the day: Wrote A Song For Everyone by CCR

Here are the pics:

 The grill

 The drink - B & J Exotic Berry.

 The other drink - Busch. Not my cup of tea, I'm a Stout fan. ;)

 In his own little world...

 ... with a beer clenched in his fist.

 The BBQ meat. I believe these were the pork steaks.

 Love the smoky BBQ.

 And yes, these were the BBQ pork steaks.

 He looks like he wants to murder someone.

 Check out the color difference in our drinks.

 My favorite auntie in the world.

 Lazy dogs.

 Gotta love the simple life.

 Look at the flame on the BBQ grill.

 Well, I guess it's a BBQ flame on the meat.

Lastly - and my personal favorite - BBQ'd hot dogs.

 A smoldering fire.

Well, there's still a couple flames.

 I love smoke and fire.

Some might call me a piro. :)
