Strayspay's Lensography

Why Strayspay - and it is strays pay. Money will not buy love, but it will buy the meager needs of a homeless stray and the "pay" in return is a friend who will love with all their hearts as long as they live. And, they will love us if we're short or tall, skinny or fat, ugly or beautiful and in any sort of mood, they still love us.

We lived in a college town and worked at a university in support positions when we acquired our first stray, a small shaggy terrier mix that my husband named Benji (more exotic names for me thank you), but Benji joined us shortly before my husband was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer. Dogs somehow know how to comfort without words and Benji was always there for Pat. From then on it was a steady stream of dogs that we grabbed from the side of a busy highway or a starving puppy we found wandering on the parking lot of the university or plucked from the high kill animal shelter. We think dogs (and cats too certainly but we've never had luck combining the two) deserve a chance at a pleasant life with someone to love. They offer their love freely and will be loyal unto death.

Squidoo welcomed me as a member two years ago but I made only one lens and then I got drawn away with other things.

A good friend, Susan52, is in an online group to which I belong and she had talked from time to time about what she was doing in Squidoo. It sounded so challenging and so much fun - I guess the time was just right this time because I started again about 2-1/2 months ago and have since made 50+ lenses and I'm solidly hooked. I'm so in love, in fact, that I wrote a love letter to Squidoo www.squidoo.com/ declarationoflove

If I thought becoming a Giant Squid was the culmination of all my dreams and aspirations, I was wrong! Now I've hit the 100 lenses mark and would love to be considered for a Squid Angel. I feel in a way that I have the Squidpox. First it was one little bump on my arm and it's continued to spread until it's all over - my love for and desire to better myself at Squidoo. The people I've met on Squidoo are just the greatest and there are lots of lensmasters with goals and aspirations similar to mine. Squidoo, I love you!
