Some of the Fam! Vol 1

Since I know have an iPhone and can more easily download pics to the computer (mostly when I am working), I thought I would introduce you to some of the "clan" of Wacky Amazing Real Life! The first up our newest and youngest members Claude and Marlin ...

These two came to be part of our gang - when I had read an ad on Craigslist of all places "selling" baby pigs less than 2 weeks old. Not OK and definately NOT healthy. Without diverging TOO many details about what I do, this was a HUGE no no. Appropriate people were contacted and the litter was rescued, the people put out of business. Well I got to be the adoptive Mommy, to get them healthy and find them new homes. Well a new home was found, I knew almost from the moment I touched them, with US! So here they are now full sized at a whopping 10 lbs and 8 lbs, mini Potbelly pigs (however they really would NOT have been "mini" had they been cared for appropriately since birth).

Claude - coming to CHECK out the weird thing being held in his face - He is the snugglier of the two and the smallest!


Marlin - enjoying a stroll in the gorgeous weather! This little guy LOVES the dogs! Gets SO happy when they come out to play with him, his little tail goes 100 miles an hour.

It makes me so happy to be able to give animals like this a LOVING permanent home. I fully encourage animal adoption. Any animal you are looking to aquire, there is an adoption foundation/program out there for it, from rodents, to snakes, farm animals, and of couse cats and dogs! They all need a loving home :)

Monday Monday - Oh wait IT IS TUESDAY

Thank the lord for that ... My weeks is SUPER SHORT ...

I want to find someone to design a proper blog for me ... or someone to help instruct me how to design a proper blog... that fits ME and my life better :)

Anywho - In MUCH better spirits today b/c this weekend - I became the mommy to do ADORABLE TEENY TINY PIGLETS - yes you read that right we adopted PIGS ... two micro potbelly piglets .. 4 weeks old, on the bottle adorable piglets ... that have yet to be named :( However they are cute, tiny (about 2 lbs) and super friendly and sweet - Think dog meets baby who makes lots of silly grunting and SCREAMING noises! Pictures to come soon - Promise. I am just figuring this picture thing out :) Plus I want to document to see how quickly they do or do not grow!

On a side note - I need some advice on where to get some decorating types ... I am a creative person but not with furniture or shelves! and our house is plain. It looks like we JUST moved in :( I want to change that ... So perhaps someone who was trained in the design area, or perhaps somewhere to send me, that is relatively inexpensive, or perhaps someone I could send some pictures of and perhaps a Pinterst or two that show my styles and could help me with fabrics, color and furniture placement... I want my home to be a welcoming space and right now it is a blank canvas!
