A day at Dixie´s.

marguicha @marguicha (230331) • Chile 29 Oct 24

I´m just back from Dixie´s. I went to Camila´s concert and slept all day today. I decided that it was because, as my nose was itchy, I took a Loratadine pill. For those of you who have sleeping problems, I suggest...

I overspent instead of saving

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52144) • Staten Island, New York 20 Oct 23

We were running out of paper plates so I went to Target to see how much they cost. After using the price checker I found out that a pack of 54 Dixie plates cost $7.79. That seemed like a good price as I had bought a pack of 26...

My routine for the day

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381741) • Rockingham, Australia 22 Aug 23

While I’ve been house-sitting, I’ve been getting up at about 7.15am and heading out to give the three horses their hay-nets. The last few mornings have been very foggy and I managed to get a photo of the horses coming home...

We took Dixie, the Border Collie, for a walk yesterday and walked round a canola crop. There are hundreds of acres sown to canola in the district and sometimes it’s yellow as far as the eye can see. Vince wanted a photo of me in...

A chocolate orange and it's all mine!

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381741) • Rockingham, Australia 4 Jan 23

My son gave me a chocolate orange when we were in Melbourne. Have you had one of these? It is dark chocolate and orange-flavoured. It breaks up into segments like an orange. Do you know of them and/or like them? If I hadn’t...

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381741) • Rockingham, Australia 4 Aug 22

The photo shows a Jim look-alike. In about ten days, we are going to house-sit for a sulphur-crested cockatoo, Jim, and a dog, Dixie. We met them both a few days ago. Jim likes cuddles and snuggled into my neck. I’m a bit wary...

What a shame! Luna was very naughty.

marguicha @marguicha (230331) • Chile 11 Feb 21

Luna loves Dixie. I don´t blame her. She plays with her and lets her jump all over her when they are playing. Yesterday Dixie was in a hurry so we had lunch as soon as we returned. Luna was outside, as usual. Suddenly Luna...
