Debuting a New Holiday Song!

Today I had some free time, and this happened. Enjoy. Or laugh. Just don’t blow snot on my computer. . Graybie Baby … Continue reading
The Polar Bear is Replaced by a Tiger
Today the polar bear was gone. I knew eventually the museum would change the main installation, but still, to not see him there was shocking. But he has other eyes to open, so on he goes to his next stop on his journey while I continue mine. Yesterday I enjoyed a free lunchtime guided meditation at … Continue reading

Wait a Minute, I thought Jesus Said We Were All Precious
This is Barbara Dawson. She lived in Bristol, Florida, a town about an hour away from us. Ms. Dawson died yesterday at Calhoun Liberty Hospital in Blountstown, Florida.

Four more days until….

Dear Santa, It’s me, your favorite Malamute in the whole wide world- Rumpy! Now I know it’s crunch time for you and the elves, but I wanted to say hello, and ask if it’s not too much trouble, could you bring me a new squeaky toy? You see, I deaded mine, and I am sad. … Continue reading
Does Santa Bring Puppies and Kittens?
MEOW! My name is June Buggie, and I have something to say! Two years ago I posted a rant entitled, Does Santa Bring Puppies and Kittens? The post is getting a good bit of traffic this year, despite Rumpy adding a disclaimer at the top of the page that we no longer believe what I wrote. … Continue reading
Gift-Giving on the Cheap…. and a Giveaway!
Let’s face it, advertisers have us all convinced that we show how much we love our family and friends by how much we spend on them. Heck, they’ve even convinced us we show the same love to our companion animals! But, the truth is, our companion animals could care less about much of the stuff we buy … Continue reading
