Just when I thought it was going to be a quiet day, I found it to be a quite the opposite. I don’t really mind the sound of the small toro lawn mower, especially when I don’t have to listen to Nancy singing along with her AirPods. It is rare that Nancy doesn’t have her AirPods plugging her ears when she mows, even with the small lawn mower. Yesterday, was one of those exceptions. I…
Today, we got up early, as we usually do. Like other days, we love to watch the sunrise. On this day, we were hoping to mow the lawn before the rainy day began. The gorgeous sunrise gave us hope that we would get the lawn mowed, before the rain. After my breakfast and barely after my first nap, I heard the pitter patter of the rain and saw our gray horizon. Our morning of mowing was snatched…
Just when Nancy was starting to enjoy cooking, a fiasco occurred. She was preparing an easy meal that Greg loves and quite frankly, the hamburger smelled pretty good. Then, it happened. She grabbed the Livia seasoning container and dumped in almost the whole container, instead of sprinkling some over the hamburger. She tried to rescue the pile of seasoning out of the frying pan, and continued with the green beans and cheese layers. I was…
Today I’m gonna tell you about the (new) little pillow Nancy found at an estate sale for me. Apparently, she thought that Greg would like it when he’s taking a nap. But soon we started to share the pillow. I know cute right?! Soon, I claimed it as my own. There are other pillows on the couch; but, they certainly are not as functional as this pillow. People seem to waste a lot of money on decorative pillows, in my…
When it is constantly raining outside, because it should never rain inside, I catch up on my nappying skills. While I realize that I could get some research done for future blogs? May I remind you that us dogs are not wired to be that organized?! I simply wake up each day and follow Nancy to the patio door after my collar is secured around my neck. I eat if I am hungry, followed by my…
I am not even sure what I will write about as I start typing this blog. Nancy always says “just start placing your paws on the keys and they will tell your story” so here I am. Greg is watching a new Star Wars movie and Nancy is doing her weekly bed sheet laundry. I know, it is not always about me, right? I think that is rather liberating to know that they have a life set…
Did you notice the beautiful smell of the rain later today? As we drove to do an errand. I hung my head out the window and it was pure delight. We noticed that far beyond us, in the distance were dark dark clouds. We knew the rain would eventually arrive. But, as we are driving, we started to drive into sunshine and immediately I thought ah where is the rainbow? Isn’t that just how we are, we are always looking for…
Here is to a weekend of taking advantage of a broken down washing machine. Even though I did not get to go to the laundromat with Nancy, I still was able to enjoy hanging up the laundry at the farm. Talk about a therapeutic exercise for Nancy, whoa, I don’t even know where to begin on this one. As a child she would be sent out to hang out laundry on the wash lines. Let’s just say it wasn’t…
As I peer outside today, I see our huge tree swaying ferociously and I am thankful for its firm foundation. The sunrise is a masterpiece of whites and blues rather than bright orange and yellows. The attempted subtle pink horizon is slowly fading in with the clouds to exit the morning stage. It is a day that I so appreciate those firm foundations both in the sunrise moments and my life here with my humans. Once again,…
