1 My life is likely to last 10-15 years ~ Any separation from you is likely to be painful ~
2 Give me time to understand what you want of me ~
3 Place your trust in me ~ It is crucial for my well-being ~
4 Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment ~
You have your work, your friends, your entertainments, but I have only you ~
5 Talk to me ~ Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me ~
6 Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it ~
7 Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to ~
8 Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me~ Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I may have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak ~
9 Please take care of me when I grow old ~ You too, will grow old ~
10 On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please ~ Never say you can't bear to watch ~ Don't make me face this alone ~ Everything is easier for me if you are there ,~
Take a moment today to thank God for your pets ~ Enjoy and take good care of them ~ Life would be a much duller, less joyful experience without
God's critters.
We do not have to wait for Heaven, to be surrounded by hope, love and joyfulness.
It is here on earth and has four ( or just 2 ) legs!
There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face ...
Or a kitty in your lap purring ...
Or the soft snicker of a horse as you enter the barn---
Live Well ~ Love Much ~ Laugh Often

Hello! Isn't the Metroplex great? I was born and raised in Dallas and parents moved me to "the country" (Mesquite) in the 70's. Mesquite was far enough from Dallas to be the country but close enough to be convenient. I have seen this small town turn into a big city that continues to have small town charm. To experience a taste of this charm come on out in the Spring and enjoy the street festival and Rodeo Parade celebrating the opening of the Rodeo season, grab some tickets to the Rodeo and see first hand what the fuss is all about, stop in at Mesquite BBQ on any Friday or Saturday night or just cool your heels on the town square and enjoy the sounds of the Mesquite Opry and the occasional lazy train rolling through town. The spirit of the Mesquite High School Football games will take you back to a special place in your life, the sound of the bands, the trips to the snack bar, the sense of community coming together- nothing else like it! People still know their neighbors in Mesquite, watch out for one another in Mesquite, and proudly support our troops, police & fire departments, who not only serve and protect our community, but are also our friends and neighbors. Mesquite is the place for me!
