Our Friday started out like most others, and we left in the early afternoon to enjoy our fish dinner at The Nest in Farwell, as we almost always do. On the way through town we noticed a lot of goings-on that would indicate something was going to start soon, but we didn’t know what. We …

MY ASSISTANCE DOG
One Post, Two Topics – August 4, 2022
Yes it is late to be posting. However it was a busy day… I’d said I was going to post about Maisie today, and so I will. But first… Today we had helpers. For many months (or longer) I have known that we were going to need helpers at some point. Not with physical care, …

The Day’s Events – Aug. 1, 2022
Just as, sometime in late 2017 I realized I needed a dog to train to help me in my day-to-day life, some months ago I realized that I – we, actually – need someone(s) to help manage things with us. Casey and Bill, and the kids, have always been more than willing to help. But …

VIDEO – Vlog #2107 July 25, 2022 – This Is My BIG Event!
As I have hinted at in my updates recently, something BIG was coming up in my life. And today it came! This is the 2nd time I have gotten something this magnificent, this spectacular, for myself. And probably the last. I made a vlog of the day which is very long (nearly half an hour) …

A Maisie Memo – July 8, 2022
After we got home from our errands today I needed to take multiple pain meds – something I rarely do – and of course I fell asleep where I sat. After Pete takes Chuy to Junior (Chuy is “his” little dog, Junior is our travel trailer acrosss the driveway which he uses as his ham …

VIDEO: Conversation With Maisie
Just a little chat we had this morning…
A Quick Maisie Memo
I always have Maisie on a long line outside – unless we’re playing ball – even though we’re in a very remote area, and even though the one time she got out while we were gone for most of the day she never left the yard (though Chuy sure did!) – but still she tries …

Monday Maisieness – July 4, 2022 Edition
NOTE: You can find more posts about Maisie HERE! Thought it was time for a catch-up on Maisie, and I have a bunch of pictures of her I’ve taken lately I want to share, so… First, she’s feeling better, absolutely no coughing for well over a week. Just 5 more doses of her meds (twice/day) …

Thursday Thoughts – June 30, 2022 Edition: Night Fight
So last night was a night from hell. Almost literally. I have briefly mentioned in my updates things have been a little rough here for a few weeks. (Don’t worry, I’m not going to go into all of that here!) And yesterday was a really really rough day, as I mentioned on last night’s update. …

Maisie’s Vet Visit – June 21, 2022
(You can see what’s been going on with my service dog Maisie up to this point HERE.) I was so happy to get her to her regular vet today! But was shocked that she’s gained 10# over the winter – YIKES!!! Going to be attacking that problem! This is the sheet where the vet notes …
