A Regular Day
Yesterday was a regular day. The HVAC guy came to service my unit and informed me my crawlspace is full of critter shit. After work I plugged all the possible entrances to keep that collection from growing. Also had a tree service come out and give me an estimate on clearing out the mess growing … Continue reading

Online Dating App Blues
I’m back on the online dating scene. This time I’m trying Match dot com. To say I’m disappointed in the site is an understatement. While at first I was thrilled to see more local men on the site, I soon learned it was because many of them are fake accounts. You know, like this one. … Continue reading
After My Dog Died…
It’s been two days since Buddy died. Wednesday I was in shock. My Fitbit notified me I walked 10,000 steps that day, and almost all of them were from walking around here not knowing what to do. Thursday was a fog. I worked my regular job and even delivered some groceries, mostly to keep myself … Continue reading
Requiem for the Goodest Dog
As I write this I’m sitting on the sofa. Normally Buddy would be lying beside me with his head touching my thigh. But Buddy died today. It’s crazy. We were just at the vet yesterday having a growth on his tail checked out. The vet who saw him said it was no big deal. Buddy … Continue reading
Buddy the Con Artist
Buddy has been trying to jump on the bed and sometimes falling. I bought some steps for him to use to climb up and down the bed, but he refuses to even try to use them. I thought it was because he didn’t know how and have been trying to teach him. It’s mostly been … Continue reading
Sunday Morning and My House Stinks!
Sunday morning walks with Buddy and Biddy Bit (my nickname for Princess Kitty) are my favorite. It’s usually quiet in our neighborhood in the early morning, but Sundays are even more so. There’s just a different feel to the air. It’s less energetic and more peaceful. This morning we heard geese overhead and watched them … Continue reading
Life with a Dog
Now that Buddy’s been here for a few weeks I remember all that I’ve missed by not having a dog in my life. Like always having a supply of poop bags in my pocket, and never assuming a trip outdoors won’t call for one. And keeping a ball cap handy for heading outdoors first thing … Continue reading
Yes, I’m on Another Rant…
Maybe it’s because I’ve been paying too much attention to the news. Or maybe it’s because I’m still steaming from getting the boot from my gig job. Or maybe it’s just because I feel what I’m seeing happening in this country is insane. Whatever it is, I’m absolutely livid. We locked down for weeks to … Continue reading
Welcome Home, Buddy!
This is Buddy. Buddy is around 10 years old and his snout is turning white. He has rough skin patches on his elbows from living much of his life confined in a crate. He has arthritis and skin irritations. He was receiving treatment for these issues in rescue and we’ve already had a visit with … Continue reading
