For those of you who have been following us for awhile, you know that Dad has a habit of giving Mom boring and practical gifts. Usually he gives Mom a kitchen appliance or something else that is very useful for daily chores. The list of past Birthday, Christmas and Mother Day gifts include snow tires, […]
I have to admit I initially agreed with Grandma that Mom was way out of her comfort zone with her latest mission. Mom’s two cousins are each expecting babies, which has her very excited. To welcome these little ones, Mom wanted to buy them gifts. However, Grandma was a bit worried that Mom was out […]
Ssshh, I’m hiding from Mom as she gets our ridiculous Halloween costumes ready for a weekend filled with embarassing photos, culminating in being publicly humiliated at the Portsmouth Halloween Parade! So while I hide, please enjoy my frightening version of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven. Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, this is […]
Dad tries. He really does. But when it comes to giving presents to Mom, let’s just say he could use a little help. One year for Mother’s Day he and Lemmy gave Mom a vacuum. Yep, he forced Lemmy to give Mom the starring character in every dog’s nightmare! Then there was the BIG birthday […]
Ok, so in Monday’s post I may not have given Lemmy the credit he deserves. It wasn’t until I started looking through his old puppy photos that I realized how utterly ridiculous Mom and Dad were as first time dog owners. No wonder Lemmy acted odd on my first day! My homecoming probably reminded him […]
Dad means well, he really does. But I’m a dog, and even I’m baffled by his poor sense of judgement. Would you believe thanks to Dad’s silly mistake, Asa almost lost his Imaginary Friend? After Dad accidentally broke the stove, he decided a new one would be the “perfect” birthday gift for Mom. Unbelievable! At […]
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, this is silly, Over many a quaint and curious costume of forgotten Halloweens — While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came some laughing, As of some one gently laughing, laughing at my garb. “’Tis the TV,” I muttered, “laughing in my living room — Only this […]
Dogs, we’ve all been there. Out and about enjoying a nice day hanging out with your friends, when out of nowhere your parents ruin it by calling you some embarrassing nickname. The other dogs inevitably laugh at you. Some even mock you by calling you that ridiculous pet name. All the while you try to […]
Gather around, my friends, and I will share with you my tale of Halloween Horror. It all begins innocently enough in a small town in southern Maine, with my family. On the surface we look normal enough. We go about our lives not bothering anyone, wave at the neighbors, and do what any other family […]
Har, har, har, very funny, Mom. It seems Mom does not appreciate my efforts to protect our family from Squirrels. So she decided to embarrass me by making me wear a ridiculous new collar with pictures of Squirrels on it. But what she doesn’t realize is that I am doing her a great service protecting […]
