Saturating Social Media

Mom never jumped on the Facebook bandwagon. Misguidedly, she was convinced it was merely a passing fad. Wow, she missed that boat. But despite the undeniable dominance of this little corner of social media, Mom has never made herself an account. But Mom is no stranger to "connecting" with the world using other means - my blog being one of them. She Tweets and Vines and was Instagramming before it was even cool. Alas, she still hasn't figured out Tumblr....

Above we see one of many experiments she has being doing trying to find the perfect Instagram framing app. Aren't Miss Binks and I adorable? And speaking of adorable, here are Miss Binks and I canoodling in our tent....hopefully this link works...

Ah yes, there we are, we just can't get enough of each other ;) A bit of an explanation about that clip: Miss Binks and I have been residing upstairs in the living room for the last few weeks. We had air conditioner problems and unfortunately, a very shady repair company came in and charged a fortune for what really ended up being a blown fuse. But the icing on the cake was when they left without reattaching the hose that connects the water drain to the output, resulting in water all over the basement, and in the family room where we live. I tell ya, when Mom got home and saw that mess, she called those people and complained, but they just hung up on her. Then Dad called back and he started speaking in what I can only describe as a completely different language - "colourful" language some people might call it - certainly words I'd never heard before. And whoever he was talking to must have been hard of hearing because Dad sure was yelling awfully loud. Anyway, our home insurance will be repairing the damage and us two have been relocated until said work has been completed.

Mom has finally gotten around to editing that other clip of me having a misadventure in the furnace room. I LOVE the furnace room! I'm not allowed in there because there is too much trouble I could get into, but every now and then, Mom or Dad might leave the door ajar and that's when I take full advantage. So I leave you with this clip of me not listening to Mommy.....and make sure you watch to the end so you can see me giving the business to a blue pillow I found in there....

I Love You More Than... said...: I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this blog!
Fluffy & Binky are too cute for words.
& Binky looks like an absolute angel in her scarves.

My bunneh is a tiny tornado. I'm sure she & Fluffy could find lots of trouble to get into.

I was wondering if I could get a pdf of your background, I would love to put it on a coffee mug. (ceharfmann(at)emu(dot)edu)

Unknown said...: It's great you had home insurance to fall on in cases such as your basement flooding. While no one wants to deal with a flooded basement, having insurance at your disposal makes it a little easier to fix the problem. Have you taken care of things with the repair company? Good luck!

Rabbit Rescue Poem

I used to be a lonely rabbit,
Just looking for a home.
I simply had no place to go,
No one to call my own.

I wandered through the streets and fields,
in rain in heat and snow.
I ate what ever I could find,
I was always on the go.

My skin would itch, my feet were sore,
My body ached with pain.
And no one stopped to give a pat
Or gently say my name.

I never saw a loving glance,
I was always on the run.
For people thought that hurting me
was really lots of fun.

And then one day I heard a voice
So gentle, kind and sweet,
And arms so soft reached down to me
And took me off my feet.

"No one again will hurt you"
Was whispered in my ear.
"You’ll have a home to call your own
where you will know no fear.

You will be dry, you will be warm,
you’ll have enough to eat
And rest assured that when you sleep,
your dreams will all be sweet."

I was afraid I must admit,
I’ve lived so long in fear.
I can’t remember when I let
A human come so near.

And as she tended to my wounds
And cleaned and brushed my fur
She told me ‘bout the rescue group
And what it meant to her.

She said, "We are a circle,
A line that never ends.
And in the center there is you
protected by new friends.

And all around you are the ones
Who'll keep you safe and sound,
Who will share their loving home with you
Until a forever one can be found.

We will do all we can
by searching near and far,
To find the perfect home for you,
where you can be a star."

She said, "There is a family,
that’s waiting patiently,
and pretty soon we’ll find them,
just you wait and see.

And then they’ll join our circle,
they’ll help to make it grow,
so there’ll be room for more like you,
who have no place to go."

I waited very patiently,
The days, they came and went.
Today’s the day, I would hope,
my family will be sent.

Then just when I began to think
It wasn’t meant to be,
there were people standing there
just gazing down at me.

I knew them in a heartbeat
I could tell they felt it too.
They said "We have been searching for
A special bunn like you."

Now every night I say a prayer
to all the Gods that be.
Thank you for the life I live
and all you’ve given me.

But most of all protect the bunnies
in the pound and on the street.
And send a Rabbit Rescue Person
to lift them off their feet.
