Why Beagles Are Better Than Kids.....

Top 25 reasons why Beagles are better than kids:

25. Kibble and water are cheaper than formula and diapers. 24. They have more hair when they are born.

23. Beagles never forget to "go" before they leave.

22. Beagles can go on long trips without yelling "MOM, HE'S TOUCHING ME!!!"

21. Beagles never grow out of being kissed in front of their friends.

20. Beagles don't wear holes in the knees of their trousers.

19. It doesn't matter how much dog hair a Beagle gets in its mouth.

18. You can cage a Beagle without going to jail.

17. Beagles don't "backwash" crackers when sharing your soda.

16. Beagles will watch classic Star Trek with you and won't laugh at the special effects.

15. Beagles hide their "blankies" in their crates rather than dragging them around in public.

14. It's OK and even encouraged to tattoo your Beagle.

13. The older a Beagle gets, the more they like you.

12. Beagles don't ask why. Beagles don't ask why. Beagles don't ask why.

11. Beagles don't roll their eyes when you insist dogs today have it easier.

10.Beagles stick their tongue inside your ear canal; children use a pencil.

9. Beagles don't jump on the bed; they just quietly shed in them and lay on you, considerately adding to your warmth.

8. Beagle markings are easier to get off the wall than crayon.

7. When Beagles don't listen to you, it is because they cannot understand the complex human language.

6. Beagles have tails, making it easier to grab them as they run away.

5. No one passes you a Beagle with a loaded diaper.

4. Beagles dig for buried treasure in the litter box. Kids won't even dump the litter box.

3. When Beagles interrupt you making love, you don't have to explain that the two of you are "wrestling to see who does the dishes."

2.Beagles don't grow out of their shoes every 2 1/2 months.And the number one reason dogs are better than kids:

1. Beagles, when entering those teen years, are neutered.

I actually laugh when the Chihuahuas get snotty. I could never manage that with the kids!

All I can say is I wouldn't want to drink from their water bowl. Yuck! Our pup's water bowl gets washed daily and it's still gross! Especially this time of year when there is an array of leaves, twigs and bug parts floating around.

I sometimes say, "I should have stuck with dogs. They eat the same thing every day. They are always glad to see you. They can get PG. They wear the same fur all their life. And thye will kiss you until you make them stop." What more can I say.

I love the new background. I may have to look at you site the comes up on your blog.

It would apply to dogs in general - and I totally agree! It's why I don't have kids but do have a dog! ;-)

I like the new look too!

A Peak at 2010 for Fellow Taureans

Year 2010 Overview Taurus always gets tagged with things like "pleasure-seeking" and "materialistic." That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life the last couple of years when it comes to those two very important parts of your life. Thankfully, 2010 marks the end of that long uphill struggle . Your pleasurable pursuits have been a little more restricted than you'd like over the course of the last two years or so. That's over with now, so ... game on! The big events this year will not so much be a matter of major happenings as they will be things that have been in the works and are slowly revealing themselves . In the last two years, you've put a lot of work into what makes you happy, while Saturn transited your solar Fifth House. Now that those pressures are finally bei

It is April of  2019. The year that marks my 65th trip around the sun.  Somehow, I always knew that I would make this landmark. There was never a doubt in my mind. The first 65 years have been trouble free. Moderate medical issues. One simple surgery in 2017.  This year will also mark 47 years of marriage to one man. Give me a standing O now, please! It’s incredible to recognize that I’ve know this man for almost 50 years. I don’t regret one single day. Not one.  Sure, there have been times that were filled with questions and struggles. But there have been so many more days that we’re fun filled, raising our two perfect children, living the life of suburbia, two working parents doing their best. Usually, I like to make a big deal about my birthdays. Especially after the surprise party when I was seven years old.  See, my parents were getting divorced at the time of my 7th birthday, Enter my Uncle Frank and Aunt Evelyn to the rescue.  Major distraction to get me out of

Christmas in July Give A Way

What better way to celebrate the middle of summer with a give a way for one lucky blogging friend? Just because I want to, I will be giving away a Christmas box with an accordion album. This happens to be my design and I have already given one away last December. Sorry, Kate , you will have to sit this one out! This paper mache box holds an accordion album inside. More than likely, I will make a minor modification to the box before shipping it to its new home. I really love these vintage papers from Melissa Frances Scrapbook . Her collection of designs and patterns reminds me of a little sea side cottage. I can smell the ocean spray right now. These papers bring me back to a time when I think I would have loved to live…The Victorian Age. But let’s not fool anyone, I want all of the modern day luxuries. This paper on the left takes me back to a time when I played with cut outs. I was never a doll kid, but give me cut outs and I was happy for days. S o if you think you would
