Welcome to my website!

Around the internet I am known as "Sandy, aka Furby" for two reasons - it helps people to know which Sandy I am since there are so many of us around and I just happen to like Furbies.

I believe in Angels. I believe in caring for our environment and saving wildlife. I believe in being kind to others and this includes every living thing - people and animals. And, I believe in having a lot of fun so there is a puzzles and hunts section. 

There are a few surprises along the way such as....  My Secret Garden somewhere on my site.  Will you find it?  Just be very observant and you will.  I really want you to see it since it has pictures of my actual gardens that I slave over every summer. LOL I hope you find it so I can give you an award! Please spend some time with  me, relax and look around.  Most importantly, just enjoy yourself. There is something here for everyone.

I also offer adoptions, cards and backgrounds that you will find while visiting my pages. None of my adoptions should be altered in any way. The background sets must be used as sets. These adoptions are not for X  rated sites so please don't bother if your website is not child-friendly.  If you do NOT see something being offered, please do NOT take it.  As with any adoption, a link back to my homepage is required.

 

"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn."

         Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

"Sympathy sees and says, 'I'm sorry.' 

Compassion sees and says, 'I'll help.'" 

When we learn the difference, we can make a difference.

   Memberships:

RAOK group.  Random Acts of Kindness was a group of people from all over the world devoted to spreading a little cheer on the internet.  This group is no longer active.

Crazy Ladies Society .  This group had 8 wonderful years of activity. Unfortunately all good things must come to an end. I still have most of my pages to remember the good times we had.  It's worth a visit if you'd like a giggle or two.

I was also a member of LOTH (Ladies of the Heart), Phenomenal Women of the Web, and The Garden House for many years.  I have since taken down my dedication pages for these groups. Life just got too busy for me to give these groups the time they deserved.

It isn't the size of your head so much,
It isn't the wealth you found,
That will make you happy -- it's how you touch
The lives that are all around.

My Forgetter 
My forgetter's getting better 
But my rememberer is broke 
to you that may seem funny but, 
to me, that is no joke 

For when I'm "here" I'm wondering 
If I really should be "there" 
And, when I try to think it through, 
I haven't got a prayer! 

Oft times I walk into a room, 
Say "what am I here for?" 
I wrack my brain, but all in vain 
A zero, is my score. 

At times I put something away 
Where it is safe, but, Gee! 
The person it is safest from 
Is, generally, me! 

When shopping I may see someone, 
Say "Hi" and have a chat, 
Then, when the person walks away 
I ask myself, "who the heck was that?" 

Yes, my forgetter's getting better 
While my rememberer is broke, 
And it's driving me plumb crazy 
And that isn't any joke.
