Mom has a lot on her mind lately. Therefore she did what generations of women in her family have done in similar situations – she cleaned the house. I’m not talking your average weekly chores. I’m talking about finding what’s that in the back of the cupboards and closets, and dusting the top of the […]
After a one week delay, our annual kibble hunt took place yesterday. As you may recall, there were cheating accusations in 2022 that have yet to be addressed. Therefore this year I made a few changes in the judging. First the treat total would be kept in a written tally, and not as just a […]
Not to brag, but I will. Since 2012 I have been the winner of our Easter kibble hunt. Oh sure, there is an asterisk by 2014, because I was the only dog competing that year. Lemmy had just crossed Rainbow Bridge that Friday. But all the other years I have won…that is until last year. […]
Well it happened again. We got locked out of the house. This isn’t the first time this happened. Nor will it be the last. So of course while we waited for the door to open, Asa wrote a song parody about it. This time it is to Chumbawamba’s earworm, “Tubthumping.” Except for us the song […]
Asa here. Well this is awkward. Chuck Billy is outside and refusing to come in the house because of a beeping noise. No, it isn’t the chirping of a battery dying in the smoke detectors. Chuck Billy taught us long ago that he absolutely detests that sound and in a panic will run to the […]
You think that scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds is scary? Imagine being swarmed by moths! Our recent run-in with moths invading my hive reminded me of that time we unwittingly found ourselves starring in our own horror movie – “The Moths!” The Moths (September 2018) It all began one quiet evening with a single […]
So there we were at the park. We just finished our first real hike in weeks, and were enjoying a celebratory cup of peanut butter. That is until we were interrupted as usual. A couple approached and asked to pet us. But something unusual happened instead. Dad responded with, “No, they’re having a snack.” The […]
Today is National Tell a Joke Day. Therefore I feel obligated to warn you that the following blog post by Asa will contain bad puns, dad jokes, and yes even a knock knock joke. Consider yourself warned if you dare to keep reading!* Did you hear about the person going around stealing gates from homes? […]
I don’t know what came over me? I’ve never done that before. Yes, I admit I’m a stress eater. But I wasn’t feeling particularly stressed. Besides, it has been ages since I’ve gnawed on anything. Sure I enjoyed chewing a bone or two back in my youth, and have destroyed my fair share of stuffed […]
Today is National Dog Photography Day! A day that encourages dogs, photography enthusiasts, and all dog lovers to post as many photos of their dogs, guilt-free. However, Asa and I do admit there are times we do feel a little guilty when it comes to posing. Truth be told, we don’t always share the same […]
