I’m a 56 year old mother of six, and have 14 grandkids. I worked for 18 years with Special Ed. children and loved it and them. I had a back injury, and retired, so I've been blogging for the past few months.

Hubby and I have 5 acres out in a VERY rural setting. The closest town is a couple of miles away and our nearest neighbor is about a quarter of a mile away on one side with no homes on the other three sides for MANY miles. We are surrounded by BLM land which makes it really nice and quiet. I get to listen to, and watch, many kinds of wild critters like coyotes, quail, dove, ground squirrels (little nasty thieves), and road runners, etc.

We are on our third generation of Pembroke Welsh Corgi’s, and that’s one reason that we often refer to this place as Corgi Country. The oldest Corgi that we have now, is named O.C., which stands for Ornery Cuss. She was the orneriest one in her litter, and about TORE her brother UP when they were little! She is very smart and used to herd our goats. Now she is mostly retired, but still works a little as a helper dog for me, picking things up, etc. It makes her happy.

We had several people waiting in line for her to have pups when she reached the proper age, but, typical of her ornery little self, she failed to produce for several years until she was 7 1/2 years old, and we figured she was unable to have pups. Well, she decided to sneak out and find her own “man” and made up for lost time, having EIGHT Chihuahua/Doxie/Corgi pups… Guess we named her appropriately, huh!

I have two blogs on blogger. One is a Bible Study on Proverbs and the other is OC's Country Corgi blog.
