The Molar of the story is…

I was feeling a little woozy, I gotta say.  I didn’t really know how much that darned tooth hurt until I didn’t have it any more.  Plus, the drugs they give you to go home on are pretty good.  So I spent the afternoon drowsing & dreaming. . . Maezi actually didn’t bug me or […]

The Tooth Fairy

Today is my birthday!

Eight blissful, furry years… Ya know, when people say, “It’s a dog’s life”, they are just jealous.  Because, let me tell ya.  Today, on my 8th birthday, I got to sleep in late, had a little breakfast, played some games, chased Maezi, & then had a nap.

Christmas Card Craziness. Part 1

I haven’t been able to write, because, well, there is a lot of activity here, & we have to supervise it.  We have to look in every bag, box & parcel that comes our way. We found this interesting package just the other day. Well?  What is it going to be?   This blown out photo […]

Giving Thanks

It requires a gentle nudge sometimes, but it’s always the right time to show appreciation… So after the big feast the the running & playing & family time, once you settle in, be sure to snuggle next to one you love & say…”thanks”. Thanksgiving we eat lots of turkey, And prance around happy and perky. […]
