Today, March 15, 2022, marks the 202nd anniversary of Maine becoming the 23rd state in the United States. Although the history of Maine goes back much farther than 200 years, it wasn’t until March 15, 1820 that it seceded from Massachusetts to become its own state. At that time the legislators chose the state motto […]
On Sunday morning my breakfast was served one hour early. Dinner was also served an hour early as well. The same thing happened today at breakfast. I did not have to subtly remind Mom that mealtime was fast approaching. In fact it was a nice surprise to wake from a nap yesterday, and see her […]
Let’s face it, with the exception of cats, dogs are members of the household who spend the most time at home. So why is it no one has made bark recognition technology to accommodate our needs? We are definitely an untapped market, that would appreciate these tools to make our lives easier. Take this new […]
Asa here. Oops, I mean Goldenlocks. Once upon a time there lived two Golden Princes. One young and carefree, and the other older and rather set in his ways. That is until one day when the older prince randomly decided to change where he slept at night. No more being tucked in with Goldenlocks. He […]
Asa and I are strong believers that training is not a one and done event, but instead a lifelong process. Even if you walk on a loose leash out of the obedience class, head held high, with diploma proudly in mouth, we all could use a refresher as old habits can come creeping back. Perhaps […]
Avast me hearties! What do you do with a Pirate Parrot who is icebound in Maine? No seriously, what? Our Pirate Parrot was marooned here during a snowstorm in January. Now that I think of it, it was my birthday weekend when I found him in his battered cardboard ship seeking a safe harbor on […]
Dogs, today is Employee Appreciation Day. This is a great time to remind our staff the variety of benefits we give them each and every day in exchange for the privilege of taking care of us. Health Care: As our employees, the biggest benefit Asa and I offer to our Mom and Dad is unlimited health […]
I hope none of you thought Asa would let Jon Bon Jovi’s birthday week go by without one of his parodies! Yesterday while Mom was mourning the loss of her obsolete DVR filled with Bon Jovi recordings, Asa was also strolling down memory lane. He’s written a lot of parodies to their songs over the […]
Well this is not how we planned to celebrate Jon Bon Jovi’s 60th birthday. If you’ve been following us for awhile, you know that Mom and Asa are big Bon Jovi fans. Whenever a new album is released, concert announced, or a milestone reached, they will celebrate by playing their favorite Bon Jovi songs, and […]
In celebration of National Peanut Butter Lovers Day, we dedicate today’s poem to our brother, angel Lemmy, who absolutely loved this treat. With just the mere mention of Peanut Butter, he would perform every trick he ever learned in rapid succession in the hopes of getting a lick. I admit Asa’s no Lord Byron, and his […]
