About me: I live in townhouse condo in Saskatoon Sk. Until last year I was the happy owner of a 22 year old Quarterhorse. I lost Peppy to navicular disease [bone in foot disintegrated] after 18 years of friendship. To help fill the void of being petless - I adopted a 4 year old cat from the SPCA - a Ragdoll cat no less - Mocha is now one of my best buddies. I have a small garden in my back yard where I have a perenial bed, a cucumber / peas / herb bed and lots of containers with Peppers and tomatoes and flowers. My front area is a clean slate due to excavations last year to repair the water lines. I enjoy this website alot, also Flylady.

My zone is: z2 Canada
