About Old as Dirt & Proud of It!

Welcome to Old As Dirt, and Proud of It by Karen Samenow. I named my blog Old As Dirt And Proud of It because that's where I am in life. You may find art or music, or inspiration included because, I'm an artist, a spiritual medium, and I'm always learning more and exploring. I hope you find us interesting. My focus for this blog is to bring a little levity to well seasoned women. Sometimes it actually may help!

Who is Bubbles?

Turns out….Bubbles is a cuddle bug!

While Dusty’s  human family are all getting to know Bubbles, Dusty feels left out!  I guess I don’t need to tell you that the humans are hogging little, furry, soft Bubbles. Dusty hasn’t even been allowed to talk with her….. What’s that about?

Dusty thinks that maybe his human family thinks he’s a bad influence, or too old to be hangin’ around with Bubbles. It won’t surprise you when I tell you that Dusty thinks they are just being over protective!

Bubbles needs to have time to learn how to act inside the house, just like Dusty did.  He was litter box trained, and after a few days was allowed to explore the house.  Dusty has never had an accident, and is a bunny of integrity!   Bubbles, so far seems to be just as conscientious with her personal habits, and everything she does.

While the family is getting to know, and spend time training Bubbles, Dusty continues to be on guard, watching Bubbles’ every move!

Dusty wants you to know, he’s going to stay on top of things!  He won’t take his eyes off his new friend…..not even for a minute!

Dust Bunny, or Dusty as he is now called has felt very lonely of date! He begs, and pleads for a friend that looks like himself, but the only friends he has are of the two legged variety. Oh, he has a couple of four legged friends, but they look really different from him, and Dusty is perplexed at their comings, and goings. He doesn’t understand why they don’t like carrots, or lettuce, and only eat stinky, smelly tidbits out of a can, or big round, hard chunks of something they call “Tender vittles!”

Dusty had tried to make friends that were living  in his garden, buy they seemed……well, less than excited about the prospects of a new relationship!

While Dusty longs for a girlfriend, behind his back…..way behind his back, his human friends have been looking loooong, and hard for a proper girl bunny.

Sad Dusty!

Sad Dusty!

Now, Dusty doesn’t know this, so don’t tell him, but I think they have found him one….

She doesn’t have a  name yet, that will come after everyone gets to know her, and love her. If all goes well, it is  very  possible  she will be coming to live with Dusty and his human family next Saturday.

It seems to me that Dusty has to know something’s up, because he keeps anxiously waiting by the back door.   He probably doesn’t know about his new friend, but maybe he’s heard rumblings among the human’s when they gather, or maybe one of the other four legged friends ratted the humans out.

I for one, can’t wait to see Dusty’s little furry face, once he spots his new friend!

I’ll keep you posted, and maybe even be able to get some amazing shots of the big surprise…..just remember...Mums the Word!

Thursdays Time out for Art

If you hadn’t realized before, I love color!!!  The more the better, and I often get into trouble because I’m unable to edit, and soften my color choices.  I’ve been doing little sketches, and journaling like this for quite a while, but it wasn’t until I found Zebra Designs & Destinations that I realized, if Z can do it, I can do it!!!
