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 […]
Asa here. It’s no secret that I like to flirt with the ladies on social media. It’s also no secret that I’m not very good at it, and can get nervous sometimes when they actually respond back. Well you can’t even begin to imagine my excitement when I heard that Priss and Bogey’s family were […]
Asa and I have swam in the vast ocean and climbed the highest mountains, but who would have guessed our biggest challenge would be a corn maze! Yes, despite being intrepid explorers, back in 2017 Asa and I got lost in a corn maze. My first warning that this wasn’t going to be a typical […]
I’m pleased to say that this year we’re having the best harvest yet for Dad’s little garden. That hasn’t always been the case. We still laugh about the year that Dad accidentally planted “Magic Beans.” So for those not familiar with my tale of Chuck Billy and the Beanstalk, let me re-share this post from […]
It has been brought to my attention that we have some new friends who would like to know the story behind our names. Lemmy, Asa and I are named after Mom’s ancestors who lived in the 1800s at the Isles of Shoals on a tiny island off the coast of New Hampshire, called Star Island. […]
