Okay, he’s not totally a puppy at this point. This lad is HUGE, 15 months old and is going IFT (in for training) as of September. And he’s a good 70 pounds of love bug. He gets a bit hyper when meeting people, but otherwise, dang, all he wants to do is declare his undying … Continue reading “Nope I’m not going in there” said the puppy.
We went kayaking on Bass Lake, just outside Yosemite, Beloved and I, during our weekend vacation. Well, my weekend vacay, as we’re here until Thursday while I work starting Monday. She’s still enjoying the benefits of our 2008 agreement … I work, she raises the kids. The Boy graduated high school in 2015, and she’s … Continue reading The wake is incessant and kind of annoying.
Ice. Rocks. A girl’s best friend. Among other precious stones. So when I went to get my ears re-pierced, and was presented with the options of what to have reside on each side of my cranium for a couple of months… yeah, I probably shoulda gone with plain studs. But… but… they were so prit-ty. … Continue reading I have to confess: I like sparklies.
Our latest visitor, a female yellow lab, nine months old, lives in a house with a mom who is… well, a hardcore Dodger fan. Our latest guest.

Me: Honey, I’m sorry, I really am. Just come inside. The cat was having none of it. She was in a fury the likes of which I’d never before seen. She was hissing, swatting, spitting and just livid.

She got wind of the idea that things were about to change when we removed her cat food from beside the refrigerator and put it in Granny’s flat downstairs. However, someone needed a puppy sitter, so yeh, okay. MaeMae will survive. Cat: No, I freaking WON’T! When will this disaster leave?? Puppy: there’s a disaster … Continue reading Seriously, said the cat. When will this STOP??
A hundred and forty nine smackers each, with a capacity of 20 means about three grand per seating.

We checked in, had our photos taken and were offered cocktails before being taken in - … Continue reading Review of “360, An Extraordinary Experience” on Discovery Princess
