According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary 20/20 Hindsight is “the full knowledge and complete understanding that one has about an event only after it has happened.” Well as the year 2020 comes to a close, I still can’t even begin to understand everything that happened this year, especially Mom and Dad’s weird behavior. It began so […]
Still looking for a thoughtful gift for that special someone? Something that brings a big smile? We suggest writing a letter! Ever since Chuck Billy and I were puppies, we take a moment from our busy schedule to write letters and notes to our loved ones, especially those older family members who aren’t too keen […]
You know how every neighborhood has that one creepy house? It may be a bit rundown. Or even completely abandoned. Or perhaps it looks perfectly normal, but there’s just a weird vibe coming from it. Well our neighborhood isn’t any different. However, what makes that house stand out on our street is Mom and Dad’s […]
Today we are pressing pause on our scheduled post to pay tribute to Eddie Van Halen. Van Halen was our Mom’s introduction to rock music. She can’t remember when our Uncle bought his first Van Halen album, but instantly the entire family was captivated by his guitar playing. In fact, as a child Mom named […]
WHAT? Sorry I can’t hear you over Asa’s caterwauling. He is barking along to Mom’s Bon Jovi CDs. They will be releasing their newest album, “Bon Jovi 2020,” this Friday, October 2nd. It’s Mom’s tradition to play all their CDs and DVDs to celebrate the upcoming release of their newest album. That means between now […]
Prior to Mom’s surgery she received a packet of information from the hospital that Asa and I carefully reviewed. Included was the recommendation, “avoid making major purchases immediately following surgery.” No problem, or so I thought. To fully appreciate this post you must understand that Mom is not one to make impulse purchases. In fact […]
Good news! Mom is slowly, emphasis on slowly, getting better! Mom’s surgery went well, but she had a bit of a setback when it turned out she is allergic to most of the medications they gave her. So not only did she have to deal with the trauma of surgery, Mom had to cope with […]
We’ve been keeping a secret from you. Mom’s surgery in early March didn’t go as well as we hoped. The doctor realized she needs a bigger surgery. Then the pandemic hit, and Mom has been nervously waiting for it to be scheduled. Personally, I don’t know why she didn’t go see my veterinarian, Dr. Doug. […]
For Mother’s Day Asa and I would like to tell you about our beautiful Momma Sage and Grandma Rue. They’re celebrities! Momma Sage and Grandma Rue each had the honor of being models for L.L. Bean! Grandma Rue’s modeling career began when she was asked to pose for the 2010 catalog. Rue was very familiar […]
While visiting with our Great Uncle recently, he told us all about the dog he and Grandpa had when they were boys. By the sounds of it, Cookie had a very good sense of humor. For you see he helped Grandpa pull a very funny trick on our Great Grandpa. Great Grandpa insisted that every […]
