Fridays are our day together, Pete and I used to go out shopping and get an AYCE fish dinner on Fridays after work (since it coincided with pay day!). But now we’re retired and though we can – and do – shop whenever the mood strikes, Friday has remained our day together, and we still …

Monday Maisieness – March 15, 2021 Edition
OK, this likely won’t be a regular feature such as I do on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays…but who knows? Anyway, I took a few head shots of my gurl (= cur + girl) this morning, and wanted to share them. With this collage I am pasting her bio from an online site where she has …

A Gentle Sort of Evening
Tonight I made soup for supper. I like soup ok, it isn’t one of my favorite foods but once in a while it sounds good. I didn’t take any pictures but it had onions and mushrooms (browned in olive oil), carrots, cabbage, bok choy (that needed to be used up), S&P of course, parsley, crushed …

Something Very Cool Happened Yesterday!
When I got Maisie in May 2018 I had 2 different DNA tests done. One of the companies sends me notes when another dog’s DNA shows a relationship between that dog and Maisie. So far they have found a number of her relatives with scores of 27% shared DNA (a grandparent, half-sibling, or aunt/uncle) or …

This is embedded from my own server…I can’t do this too often, as I will eventually run out of either space, or data transfer. But until I can use my (temporarily swamped and overwhelmed) vlog host I will handle it this way…I can always move them later right? Meanwhile, enjoy, and feel free to leave …

Wednesday Wags – Jan. 13, 2021 Edition
The last picture is of my Maisie…I woke up one morning and this is the face that greeted me…so I grabbed my phone and captured the moment. And here it is for you to smile over :).
A SPLENDID Winter Day! Jan. 2, 2021
As you’ve seen – or I’ve mentioned – we have a tarp covering our house to protect us from the wind and protect our roof and everything on it from heavy snow. It also has enabled us to keep the motorhome just as warm while using our heat a LOT less, thereby saving us money …

Amazing Maisie: Intelligent Disobedience? Or Just Intelligence?
I have often wondered how intelligent disobedience is taught. Because I don’t use Maisie away from home yet I haven’t really looked into it much. But today she ignored a command of mine so that she could follow a different, previous command. Here is what went down: During the day my “spot” is at the …
