Sunday morning favors + photography . . .
Winston, Annabelle, and Chloe with my beautiful mother. Believe it or not she is 88 years old and perfect except for her diminished vision from macular degeneration. She is legally blind but she does very well. She's my best friend.

Antique-loving dog + a Fireworks Video + Free Fonts to download . . .
Webster loves to rumple up this rug and use the back rung of an 18thC armchair as a chin rest. He does this all the time so it must be comfortable. It makes me laugh to see him in this awkward-looking position.
I love this font called Cursif. Looks like real handwriting.
Five Fresh Free Fonts to Download.
Here is a preview of what's coming tomorrow.
The 4th of July Fireworks in Washington D.C.
Enjoy the holiday and be safe.

First of July . . .
Webster up close. I couldn't get him to relax his ears.

Blue sky, hot dog, and a bag of rocks in my driveway . . .
Yesterday's blue sky with puffy white clouds.
After "helping me" hang out laundry, Webster retreated to a cool, dark spot under the bed. He always leaves his feet sticking out so I will know where he is.
I'm beginning to think I must have something printed on my forehead that says, "Please throw something in a plastic bag in my driveway." By the way, I would never hire this person. The conspiracy continues.
