Eight years ago today, our Grandpa lost his battle with Alzheimer’s Disease. For the past year, Mom has been organizing the contents of Grandpa’s childhood home. A home that has been in the family for multiple generations. There she found tucked in the attic eaves Grandpa’s treasured toys, in bedroom drawers cards with wobbly childhood […]
Asa here. On Monday, Chuck Billy shared his heroic efforts to keep Mom safe during a thunderstorm, which for the record, he was not afraid. Today I feel I must confess that I was afraid while taking care of Mom recently. At the time, we were both recovering from visits to the doctor. In fact, […]
I want to begin by stating I’m alright, Asa is alright, and Mom will be alright! But we’ll be taking some time off as we heal and rest from each needing to wear a cone. As mentioned in yesterday’s Golden Games social media post, I’m wearing a cone due to a small hot spot. The […]
Today is World UFO Day! A day dedicated to bring awareness about this phenomenon, and to encourage everyone to scan the skies for unidentified flying objects. So as I continue to review my findings from my recent research trip to find UFOs, ghosts, and Bigfoot in the Berkshires of Massachusetts, I’d like to share how I […]
WHAT? Sorry I can’t hear you over Asa’s caterwauling. Tomorrow, June 7, 2024, Bon Jovi will be releasing their new album, “Forever.” It’s a tradition in our home that every time Bon Jovi releases a new album, Asa and Mom must celebrate by playing all of their previous albums. In 40 years, according to my […]

Memorial Day is a time to honor those that have given the ultimate sacrifice for our country while serving in the military. In 2000, Congress passed the […]
Well this is awkward. On Friday Asa and I agreed to disagree as to what is the perfect Mother’s Day gift. After reviewing Asa’s not so great ideas, we decided it would be best if we each picked out a gift for Mom. So you can’t begin to imagine our embarrassment when we realized we […]
I tend to stick to my hobbies. However, when Asa joined our family, I felt the need to branch out, and pursue new interests. As I leaf through these old puppy photos, I wish I didn’t log off on one of my old habits, namely my obsession with sticks! When I was a puppy, I […]
Dear Lemmy, today marks the tenth anniversary since you crossed Rainbow Bridge. Yet you’ll always continue to be a big presence in our daily lives. I think I’ve done a good job fulfilling my promise to make sure Asa knows you. In fact, I did such a good job that friends around the world know […]
Yesterday we introduced you to our world traveling Dutch cousin, Mushu! The reason for Mushu’s visit was to help clean out a home that has been in our family for generations. As you can imagine that was an emotional process for the humans, going through so many memories. But there was one emotion they weren’t […]
