What does your pet do when you leave for the day?
Have you ever returned home after a long day at work or school and wondered what exactly was going on in the house while you were away? When I leave the house, my dog is usually peering out the front door watching me leave. When I return, he is usually in the same spot and I sometimes wonder if he stayed there all day waiting for me. However, when I enter the house I can usually see that isn’t the case. The occasional chewed up toy and frequent torn apart Kleenexes are examples of how he may … [Read more...] about What does your pet do when you leave for the day?
Binge Watching on Netflix #streamteam
I'm thinking about shutting off my cable. If it wasn't for my husband's sports addiction, I wouldn't have to think about it at all, it would just be done. This isn't because I'm one of those people who never watch television. Quite the opposite actually, I watch a lot of television.

Love Nature? You will love this!
I have a great interest in nature and animals and I think my children love it even more than I do. The first time I took them to a theatre to see a nature documentary, I was nervous because they ranged in age from 4 to 9 and I wasn't sure they would sit through it. Not only did they sit through it, they loved it! We have seen many more since then, both at the movies and at home. Now we have a new way to learn about nature and wildlife! Blue Ant Media announced today its premium nature and … [Read more...] about Love Nature? You will love this!
