It's below freezing here in South Carolina...
...and Tammy is staying warm with three blankets.She is as snug as a bug in a rug :-)We had a dusting of snow in the past two days but nothing significant. My friends and family in North Carolina got enough to cover the ground and cancel school. I doubt those of us in the Upstate are going to get any more at this point in the season. But I've been...

Here is a new photo of Tammy!
Today was a very good day. God answered prayer and provided for my needs in a mighty and powerful way. I am going to bed tonight thankful for His provision and for the people He used to accomplish it with.And since it's been awhile since I've posted a pic of her, here is my miniature dachshund Tammy making a German spectacle of herself. How shamele...

Happy Birthday Tammy!
It was actually a few days ago on April 8th, the same day as the solar eclipse. Here's the pic I snapped of Tammy on her twelfth birthday. Such a sweet little dog. Tammy has been a little angel on four legs all these years. I definitely could not have gone far without her company. She keeps me going. And she has saved my life more than once. ...

Tammy's decoy
Last night Tammy, my miniature dachshund, got on the sofa. And she brought along one of her Christmas toys: a plush dachshund toy, which came courtesy of my cousin Lauryn and her husband.So she got up under her blanket, on my lap, and I noticed that she and her toy each had their tale protruding out:Which one is Tammy?? In real life it really does look like there...

Tammy and me at Kitty Hawk
Today is the 120th anniversary of the first powered air flight, by the Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.In May of 2017, not long after coming back east after nearly a year of traveling across America, I took my dog Tammy on a day trip to the Outer Banks. I wanted her to be able to say (to other dogs anyway) that she has seen the...

Tammy: Feelin' Fine
Have had some scary time lately with Tammy, my miniature dachshund. Two weeks ago she hurt her back around her hind quarters area. I took her to the vet and sure enough, she probably injured herself jumping onto and off from the sofa and bed all this time. The vet gave her three medications and I've been sleeping in the living room since then, close to where...

Tammy the Pup: Caught in the act
I really should post more pics of Tammy, my miniature dachshund. She's just so cute and comical... and sometimes too smart for her own good. She has also literally saved my life and sanity. I would be a far different person - and maybe not here at all - were it not for Tammy.So last night we were getting ready for our Saturday evening ritual of tuning in...

Haven't done a "Tammy Tuesday" in awhile
For some time I was posting new pics of my miniature dachshund Tammy every Tuesday. It's been a fair bit since I've done that. But it just so happened that I caught a really good snapshot of her this afternoon while I was working at the desk in my living room. I was eating some crackers and she insisted that I pay her the "cracker tax" (there's also the "chicken...

Lenten Blogging 2022: Day 38
HAPPY TENTH BIRTHDAY to this little goober:Yes friends and neighbors, it was ten years ago today on Easter Sunday 2012 that my miniature dachshund Tammy was born! She was one of a litter of five - two boys and three girls - and she was also the runt. I think it's safe to say that she has ended up with a more interesting life than most dogs get to have. ...

Something I made a while back...
That's my little girl Tammy, in a photo made by my friend Tim Talley.
Just one of many things I have learned in the past few years. And anyone who claims that a dog or cat doesn't have a soul, has obviously never owned one.

Haven't posted any new pics of Tammy in awhile...
Here she is this morning, not wanting to get out of bed:
That's her favorite blanket that's been pulled off from over her. Dad would throw it over himself as he leaned back in his recliner and Tammy would jump in his lap then burrow herself completely under the blanket and they would nap together. It's gone all over America with h...

Here's a photo of a Dachshund family
My favorite breed...
Maybe if Tammy the Pup will stand still long enough, I can get her to pose for a picture that sweet :-)

Tammy wants to sing to you...
Behold her beautiful singing voice!
Been too long since I've posted any pics of Tammy. I happened to catch her right in the midst of one of her yawns (which, it must be said, sound hilariously cute):

Currently going through a bout of depression...
Actually, it's a rapid-cycling episode that's been going on for the past two days. I woke up yesterday morning, remembered that Dad was gone, went into sadness that suddenly plummeted into clinical depression (something that lacks any emotion whatsoever) and then got catapulted into a bout of mania where the sadness returned, got escalated beyond my ready grasp of things,...

Tammy Tuesday returns with an ear-full
After an absence of too many weeks, Tammy the Pup is back! That was my fault though: just been way busy on this end of things. And I've a few posts percolating in the ol' gray matter that I'm gonna try to channel into reality the next coupl'a days.
But anyway, here's Tammy, in a pose that is familiar to anybody who has ever owned a dachshund. I don't think...

This week's Tammy Tuesday's guest host is... Lucy!
So... this was supposed to be a Tammy Tuesday: the weekly pic of my mini dachshund. Unfortunately the little girl is feeling under the weather today! But don't worry folks she's got that mischievous glint in her eye which is already threatening to unleash havoc when she's back to normal soon.
I didn't want to make it three weeks without something though. It was my...

It's the shifty-eyed Tammy Tuesday!
Zoinks!! This week's Tammy Tuesday feature went down to the wire! It's 11:56 p.m. when I'm finally able to getting to post it.
Well, don't let it be said that I'm not the Hardest Working Man in the Blogosphere(tm)! Here's a low-angle shot of Tammy, leering at the camera over the top of her doggie bed...

This week's Tammy Tuesday is all wrapped up
Several months ago I came across a long piece of scrap fabric from my Children of Eden costume. It seemed like something Tammy would enjoy playing with. Ever since, there hasn't been a day that goes by when we haven't had a tug-of-war with it (and you would not believe how such a little dog can yank something soooo hard).
Here's Tammy in one of her quieter moments...
