March

*

March has been increasingly lion-like as it progresses. Murphy is not a fan.

(None of my boys were, really.)

*

Make it go away, mommy. I don’t like the thunder.

Cattywampus (Or “When One Thing Each Day” Goes Wrong)

I started out making a baby quilt to donate, but it ended up being a full-sized quilt for my own bed…with matching shams.

*

I tried again with different fabric. I wanted to make something to give away, and….it turned into an apron that I kept.

*

After all that effort I didn’t end up getting rid on anything, but I lie to myself that my situation is better because my fabric is no longer in a jumble in a bag.

*

Why didn’t you make a blanket for my bed? I like blankets.

Isostatic Rebound (or When “One Thing Each Day” Goes Right)

Isostatic rebound occurs when land that was compressed under massive weight gradually rises back to its original elevation.

Mommy, remember when our street used to be level?

*

*

We’ve had two pickups so far this year. Surely things are neater than they used to be…right?

No Leprechaun

I'm not waiting for some leprechaun. I'm making my own pot of gold!

Don’t let the rainbows fool you. It’s frickin’ cold outside!

Insult to Injury

What's the matter? This stupid psoriasis won't go away It's all over my face. My eyes are pracitcally swollen shut. To add insult to injury, I had to get my drivers' license picture taken!

*

Yikes, if that SAVE America bill passes, I suggest you skip voting for the next 4 years. I'll stop driving too, so I don't risk a ticket.

*

And try not to get kidnapped. You wouldn't want this on the evening news.

*

I can’t bear to look at you!

(But I’ll still take any biscuits you have to offer!)

Wait till he finds out he's been neutered.

*

Say what, now?

Murphy has had a crush on a lady dog in the neighborhood from the first day he came here. She doesn’t notice him, but that doesn’t stop him from staring every time she walks by.

What’s Wrong With Murphy?

Aaagh!!!

*

Aaagh!! What's wrong with him? Murphy's afraid of thunder.

*

It’s been dry here for years, so I haven’t had much opportunity to observe Murphy during rain or thunder. Turns out, Murphy’s not a fan. We only had very gentle, rumbling, far-away thunder, but that was enough to have him glued to my side for the night. He is OK with rain until it falls hard enough to make a sound on the roof.

He’ll be in trouble if our weather ever goes back to normal.

Distract me with treats, and I might feel more confident.

The Valentine

Murphy, a package came for you!

*

Hey, look what I got!

*

Who is it from?

*

Your DogSis Reiko

*

Are you going to share with us? That depends on how awesome you think I am.

*

You're really awesome. You're really awesome.

*

Somehow I can make my face blurry while sitting perfectly still!

*

We found a surprise in the mail this week. Murphy seems to have made friends with a cute little Mauzer online. He wanted me to let her know that he absolutely loves his treats. (He kept pestering me for more and more after I took these pictures.)

Reiko, your taste in biscuits is sublime! – Murphy
