So my friend that I’ve had since I was 12 came to visit the other day.  We grew up together and got in to more trouble than either of us can seem to remember.  Well, he was visiting family not far away and he came to stay with us for a day.  He brought his [...]

Sorry it’s been a while.  We were on vacation for a week, then The Boy went to be with the grandparents for a week, so our routine got a little wonky for a bit. While The Boy was gone, The Smallish Boy whose grandparents live across the street came over to visit us one night.  [...]

I took Jake in for a check-up today to make sure that he’s healing okay from his pellet gun wound.  The hole has gotten larger, but they said that it’s due to dead tissue around the entry wound dying and coming off.  It looks like the infection is clearing up and they were able to [...]

And not like a the kind of Foremans that sell grills and have a zillion kids all named George… I’m referring to the kind that sit around and watch people work and then claim to be oh so tired. The Boy and I got our strawberry bed done today which required mixing about 30 cubic [...]

Anyone else heard of this book?  I’ve seen it recommended for dog lovers on various boards and discussions, but had never really checked it out.  So today I stopped by the library and picked it up and began to thumb through it. It had a picture of a Golden on the cover which immediately drew [...]

I know everyone’s been chomping at the bit – dying to find out exactly what it is that we feed Duchess (it’s all the talk at the coffee shops around here) so I’m finally going to get around to discussing it.  When we first got her, we were feeding a grain-free diet called Taste of [...]
