On Sundays I usually like to post a recipe or maybe a song. Sunday’s I don’t usually write a long winded blog. The problem is is I really haven’t cooked because I’ve been packing and I really couldn’t think of a good song that I wanted to post. I figured today maybe I would just tell you what a Sunday tradition is in my house that’s been around for a very long time. Marrow bone Sundays and cinnamon in my…
I’m coming back in my next life as my own dog, what a life they have. Every morning I wake up and before I even get out of bed, it’s morning puppy time. It’s scratching bellies and behind the ears with smooches on the head. Then it’s yum yum time. A phrase both dogs know means food. Zoey jumps out of bed for the preparation of her yum yums. Marshmallow is getting older, he comes when it’s ready. After breakfast…
“Zoey No, Zoey leave it”, two phrases I repeat at least fifty times by noon. Zoey’s 13 month birthday was yesterday, isn’t it supposed to be better now? I guess it is, she stopped eating the coffee table and my dining room chairs. She also stopped eating the tote that holds her toys. However, she is still a very large fan of coffee and if I forget and leave my coffee on the couch unguarded, she knocks it over to…
I think I can still do things but I can’t. Today was one of those mornings. My coffee pot broke. I have one being delivered today from Amazon. I wanted to go to a local drive thru place to get a cup of coffee. Well after my fall on Sunday night, nobody wants me to leave the house my house without help. That’s still not a feasible requirement since the increased nursing hours are a few weeks away. Anyway, that…
Zoey is officially mine. So today it’d all about Zoey… Zoey still loves my coffee, actually anyone’s coffee, she just loves coffee period Zoey eats everything in her path, tables, styluses, rocks, paper, scissors… Zoey has super powers and can fly Zoey thinks that by scratching the food bowl, more food will appear, or she’s going swimming without water or fitting first word Zoey learned was cookie, and where those cookies were kept. Zoey wasn’t liked by my beloved Boomer…
Zoey, the puppy, is now 6 months old. She is accident free about 95% of the time, chewing on things she shouldn’t about 95% of the time and adorable 100% of the time. I forgot how challenging it can be with a puppy because my youngest dog before her is now 8. I don’t know if this is all puppies or just her but she is obsessed with my coffee. I will have to throw my couch soon because she’s…
Enjoying another happy Saturday with my family. I’ve been up very early this morning with Zoey. At 2am I had to clean up her cage she had an “accident”. She hasn’t had an accident during the night in weeks. Ok no big deal all cleaned up and everyone was tucked back in until 5am. I wasn’t surprised since we are up around that time anyway. Then I did something new, I put her in my bed with Marshmellow and I….
First we know that marshmallow is spelled with an A but the story of how this little guy got his name goes like this…My daughter and I picked him up at the breeder this little white bumpkin. As we were driving home, I was conversing with my older sister (notice how I put the older dig in their ?). I admitted to getting another dog. Silence fell on the other end of the phone until finally my sister says, “is…
This was the breeders picture posted of my Boomer (the breeder called him Stewart). He was 1 of 6 in the litter. When I finally got the “yes you can get the dog” from my then husband, it was Boomer and the girl Molly left. The breeder had a family coming that afternoon to take my Boomer. Heartbroken I said I’d take the girl Molly and wired my $200 deposit. To my wonderful delight I got a call that the…
There are so many things in my life I am truly grateful for and I can dedicate numerous posts to each of them. Today I want to talk about the ones that can never read my post. I actually started with cats. My first apartment didn’t allow dogs. Each fight my ex-husband and I had resulted in another cat. My dad, who always owned dogs, used to say “you’re a dog person”. I started pushing to get a dog as…
