"ANIMALS... in a world far older than ours, finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, live by voices we shall never hear." -Henry Beston 1928
I'd rather be a could-be
if I cannot be an are;
because a could-be is a maybe
who is reaching for a star.
I'd rather be a has-been
than a might-have-been, by far,
for a might-have-been has never been,
but a has was once an are.

"The biggest myth about Southern women is that we are frail types, fainting on our sofas. Nobody where I grew up ever acted like that. We were about as fragile as coal trucks." -Lee Smith

My name is Diane, but go by 'di'. DH and I have been married 53yrs; have a son, retired USN; daughter, school teacher; blessed w/5 grandchildren, including twins. I'm Kentucky Bluegrass-born, but Alabama has been home x50+yrs. ROLL TIDE!
We're down to just one critter now. Li'l girl Darby is a 1yo Turkish Van. (We'd never heard of that one!) She is still very much a kitten, w/an attitude that keeps us in a state of alert, or maybe panic:) Our vet, who we adopted her from, gave us no warning, but after less than a week we knew something was up. I googled her breed temperament and the first paragraph included, "Put away breakables if you have a Turkish Van in the house." umm... Too Late. lol Our tabby cats were always sane! It's an adventure with lotsa love, and our Darby aka "Dobbie-Dobbie".

I love... a child's soft kiss, lunch w/friends, the silence of falling snow, playing Yahtzee with DH and g'kids, stillness of deep woods, puppy breath, cat purrs, four-part harmony, Appalachian mountain range, wintertime & snow, University of Alabama Crimson Tide football season; genealogy research, the computer and all its gadgets, apps, widgets and toys, and my ancient PSP7.04 |
SUMMER and it's heat, humidity, mosquitoes, gnats, chiggers, fleas, ticks, wasps, hornets, flies and AC bills.
