Dead Man Walking

My daughter - a freshman - is in the upcoming high school's fall play. They're doing DEAD MAN WALKING. I've never read the book, never seen the play -written by Tim Robbins - but I thought the movie was pretty great.

But what's exciting about this... on opening night... the author of the book, Sister Helen Prejean, is going to be in attendance, and afterwards will be doing a Q and A along with a book signing. I'm looking forward to it, definitely going to get a signed book to read.

Best Friends... Dogs are Awesome!

 

Lily was a puppy when she was struck down by a condition that caused her eyelashes to grown into her eyeballs, damaging them beyond repair. At the time, she was living with seven-year-old Great Dane, Maddison. Maddison knew instantly that Lily was blind and took her under her wing.

Since then, the two have been inseparable:

‘Maddison is Lily’s guide dog. If they are out and about, for the majority of the time Maddison will lead and Lily will walk nearly touching her so she knows where to go. It’s lovely to watch. Maddison is always looking out for her. They curl up together to go to sleep as well.'

Sadly Lily and Maddison's owners were unable to look after the dogs and gave them to the Dogs Trust Re-Homing center in Shrewsbury, UK. The owner of the center wouldn't dare separate the best friends.

'The two Great Danes come as a package. There's no way they should ever be separated. I'm sure they will find a loving home soon.'

The Last Song

Not sure how I missed it, but I heard this song for the first time yesterday and just LOVE it!
