Monday Morning Conversation

Ireland 2_0024

Sheep Up and Rarin’ To Go:  It’s a bright, grand day…let’s go!  Fields and fields of green are waiting for us!  🙂

Sheep Leave Me Alone:  It’s Monday, I’m knackered, I tell ya.

No matter which sheep you feel like this morning, I pray the very best for your day.  Slainte, Lisa

Cockapoo Puppy At Rest

An unusual but welcome sight in the day of a puppy owner’s life.  🙂  Usually we see this face:  “Can we go out?  Please?  I love you!”

DSCN2235 Finnegan is now five and a half months old, and lost his first baby tooth the other day.  My youngest daughter was upset that there was apparently no tooth fairy for dogs.  But Finnegan got an extra treat or two (or ten) that day, which is the best kind of tooth fairy for him.  🙂  Have a blessed day!  Lisa

Instant Smile Inducer


 

Feeling sad, feeling grumpy, feeling weighted down?  Give this video a few minutes of your time, and you’ll be smiling.  You might even be dancing, who knows?  😉  Smiling dogs, happy music, what’s not to like?  Have a happy day!  First day of SPRING!!!!  Yippee!!!!!  Slainte, Lisa

Wishful Thinking

With St. Patrick’s Day approaching on Monday, and stores everywhere filled to the brink with green tacky leprechaun-y things, my mind naturally turns to……..Ireland!  I bet you never would have guessed that from me, huh?!  🙂  Which of course leads me to the time-consuming YouTube, which of course led me to this driving in Ireland video.  It’s supposed to be humorous tutorial, but it just succeeds in making me long to be driving over there.  We spend so much of our trips in cars, squeezing down the narrow roads, always amazed at some of the roads we travel upon, and even more amazed at the places they lead us to.  Enjoy indulging in a little wishful thinking with me.  Slainte, Lisa

The Largeness of Farm Animals

The sheep post yesterday has put me in a mind to discuss a further aspect of farm animals, purely from a non-farm girl perspective.  Cows are big.  And you don’t really realize that until you are face to face with one, or surrounded by a traveling pack of them in your subcompact car on an astonishingly narrow Irish road.  If one of these bovines had decided to take a sit down on our hood, it would have been all over for the poor little car.  😉  Luckily, greener pastures were calling, and their hooves kept on moving.

Moral of the story?  If you run into a farm animal today, take a picture.  Start a blog.  You never know.  haha  Slainte, Lisa

P.S.  For those of you on the edge of their seats to hear how the sheep contest turned out, the climbing sheep of Carrantuohill and the grazing sheep of Dingle are in a dead heat tie.  Please vote to put an end to this madness once and for all!
