First, do you remember photos we posted of Jere's garden on our web page? Well she submitted some of those to growveg.com and got Tennessee some gardening exposure. You will see hers on the second garden on the page. http://www.growveg.com/gallery.aspx...

Yesterday eBay launched a new effort to publicize the fashion deals that can be found on the site. With all the legal issues surrounding trademark violations, I am a little surprised, but we will see how it turns out. Here is a fashion magazine that highlights the most popular fashion items being searched for on the site. ...

I am not sure that conundrum is the best choice of words for my quandary, but I like both conundrum and quandary, so I figured I would use them. At issue is what to do about the remaining "drop-off" cats down by the road. While we have light rains, there is water in a small stream behind them, but now the next 5 days should be dry. Even if the rain comes, it is getting colder at night and any water will freeze...

It gets tough some time to think of headlines so cut me a break on this one. The chill must be affect me. Looking outside gives me warm and sunny thoughts, but feeding the cats this morning brought the chill to my bones. We gave away about 20 goldfish yesterday to some folks from Murfreesboro. They wanted one of our stray dogs as well, but we resisted...

It is too hard to avoid saying that "it's about time" and "we told you so", but it is extremely good news to hear from The Wall Street Journal that "EBay Inc., aiming to boost its standing as a holiday shopping destination, is launching a new marketing campaign Monday. The ad push, which features the tagline "Come to think of it, eBay," follows a two-year effort by the online auctions pioneer to turn around its slumping marketplace."...

We will be in the back meeting room starting about 6:30. Now that we have the pull down screen, (Judy) I'll be sure to bring the computer and projector for our searches. Anyone need some begonias for rooting? I still have some outside that either need a home or they will go down with the first frost up here on the hill. Should be soon...

I am not sure why I never knew this but I have found a way to pet the young cats while they eat. They almost always face toward me, so they can keep an eye on me while they eat, but if I can avoid a frontal approach, they allow me to pet their backs with little concern...

Last night I was a bit worried that we had lost some. I was running late and not able to get food to them until after dark and surprisingly there was still some food left from the morning feeding. I could not find all of them in the dark and I think they were scared by the truck lights. That was a good thing...

Here is the kitty we call Sally Jr. She looks just like one of our earlier babies resting now on Pet Hill. She seems so much like her in personality too that I often forget the Junior part. I was wondering why many of the kits have not been starving when I got there, but this morning might shed some light on that. Sally Jr. had a mouse she was carrying around. When she put it down to come say good morning one of her sisters found it and laid claim...
