You’re not going to believe this, but Mom’s old camera is working again! Yes, the camera that broke in July. The very same camera that the guy at the repair store said couldn’t be fixed. It suddenly decided to work again! Mom was reluctant to get rid of her faithful companion, so it has been […]
This has been a sad week for us. The woman we all hoped would live forever passed away at the age of 98. Mom’s Great Aunt Dottie was a quiet reassuring presence in our lives. Always supportive, but also asking the important questions, Great Aunt Dottie’s gentle, witty guidance will be deeply missed. Today I would […]
Dogs are keen observers of humans. We also are astute at reading a situation and responding appropriately. Thanks to many hours dedicated to watching Mom and Dad, I now have a good grasp on what words, phrases or sounds they commonly use that mean fun is about to happen. Now every dog knows the obvious […]
I take back everything negative I’ve said about Mom and Dad’s trainer. The man is a genius! This week he finally gave me the recognition I deserve. He put me on a pedestal! Clearly Mom and Dad weren’t worshipping me like they should. To clear up any confusion, this week in class their trainer put […]
This is shaping up to be one of the top 5 most humid summers in Maine. Asa and I are lucky that we can retreat indoors to cool off with air conditioners. However, my hard working Honey Bees aren’t so lucky. Yet as with everything else Mother Nature throws at them, these ladies have a […]
Dear Customer Service, Recently my Dad brought his car in for repairs. Although the technicians did an awesome job keeping Dad’s 14 year old car on the road, I have one complaint. Did they really need to douse it in air freshener? I’m not talking about a little spritz to freshen it up. Based on […]
Asa here. Can you keep a secret? I haven’t been fulfilling my guard dog duties. Instead, I’ve been happily observing two Fawns in our yard. Chuck Billy is in a growly mood though. He discovered not only did the Deer damage another one of his apple trees, they stole the two little apples growing on […]
I’m almost positive that Mom and Dad’s trainer was trained by a cat. That is the only logical explanation for the illogical walk we did together in class this week. It all began with our continuing work in training Mom and Dad to follow my lead while leashed to me. After barking my concerns at […]
Today Asa and I will be tackling the age old debate of which season is better, winter or summer. Being older and wiser, I will begin with my support of the best season ever, winter. Mother Nature, pull up a chair. I think you’re going to want to listen to this debate, and take notes. […]
Asa here. While Chuck Billy, the renowned Dog Ufologist, goes around accusing cats of being Martians, I’d like to share with you my own theory. It is based on my experience after witnessing a UFO over my neighborhood Tuesday night. Ok, well I didn’t spot the UFO, per se. I just happened to be looking […]
