Traffic

Once again it appears that bots have discovered my blog. I wish they would discover my store. It would make me feel more successful.

Yeah, I don’t know how to draw bots, so I drew tardigrades.

I’m way cuter than a tardigrade. You should have drawn pictures of me!

Mushers’ Wax 2

Do what you want to me! I'll never give you the information!

Little dog's coat looks like Superman's cape as it floats behind him.

If I refuse to get dressed, can I stay inside?

Murphy made it clear that he does not like Mushers’ Wax, but he was much happier once he had it on. (I doubt he’ll ever admit that it helped, though.)

My Gotcha Day

This is how my new life started.

And baby, look at me now!

My Gotcha Day was really Saturday, but mom was too preoccupied to put my post up. Anyway, I spent the day in bed. Exactly what I wanted! 😊

I Don’t Wanna Go Out!

No, I don’t wanna go out. You can’t make me!

(And I couldn’t. He peed on the chair. ☹️)

Ghost Moon

If you were an astronaut and you died while you were on the moon, would your ghost haunt the moon or come back to earth?

I mean it seems pretty boring on the moon. Hardly anyone ever goes there.

Do you spend all night just sitting around thinking of these things? Literally.

At least I’m not crazy like that one.

How We Are Faring In The Wild Weather

Well, Murphy is perfectly happy after the storm. He’s had plenty of rest and Good Boy treats.

Mommy on the other hand, is pretty much exhausted from shoveling. It’s not that so much snow fell, but I have to shovel frequently and down to the grass because a certain someone can’t stand snow touching his tummy when he goes out to pee.

I can’t imagine who she is talking about..

Der Sturm

Sturm!

Weh wild und frei

Sing mir dein Leid

Zeig mir den drei

(Der Sturm, Blumfeld)

Storm!

Blow wild and free

sing me your song

Show me the rotation (spin)

Thank heavens for the Germans or we wouldn’t have any good songs about this weekend.

I’m not sure what is going on in other parts of the country right now, but they keep pushing back the time the storm will get here. Saturday was supposed to be the worst day, but now snow isn’t expected to start till 3:00 am. This area has been so painfully dry for three years that it is hard to believe we will get significant snowfall.

Murphy doesn’t like going outside to potty, but he still wants to go for walks. 🙄. I would be happy to sit at home for a few days and watch TV (presuming we still have power), but I guess that’s not going to happen with this little motivator around.

Mom makes me wear two coats when I go out. ☹️

It Started With The Twins…

Last year my niece had twins. I wanted to make something nice for them, so I chose little dresses and cardigans. When I finished with the outfits, there was still some yarn and ribbon leftover. That led to this:

I used the yarn and ribbon and some fabric from my stash to make these. They were donated to the church to help new mothers in need.

********************

You’re lucky I’m a good boy or I would have chewed up those dinosaurs.

My motives were not entirely altruistic, however. I counted the materials I used in my One Thing Each Day challenge.

******************

I know some of you have wondered what happened to us. Murphy is fine. Me not so much. In extremely rare cases, psoriasis can go to the eyes. I can’t win even a scratch off lottery ticket, but somehow I can do this.

Anyway, right now the glare from computer screens is too much for me for more than a few minutes at a time, so I can’t do Bitey Dog (or do online banking or file taxes. Eek!). As soon as I feel better, we’ll be back to telling bitey stories! 😊

Toby’s TV Lament

I'm sad. Oh why? I have a favorite TV show that I've watched for years. I always figured they'd get tired of making it before I tired of watching it.

The latest season, though, feels recycled and lazy. The sad thing is that if the show gets cancelled, they will blame politics instead of less than stellar writing.

The whole experience left me with a bad taste in my mouth. I wish someone would come along with a big pencil and just erase the latest season from my memory so I could just remember the happy times.

Sadly, it only works for Toby.

I only care about TV if there is a ringing doorbell.

Looking for ways to stay warm? Consider this handmade, handquilted Bear Paw Quilt!

Made of a patchwork of calicoes and flannels, this rustic Bear Paw Quilt would fit in nicely at a cabin by the lake or thrown over your couch at home. The pattern is geometric, and the colors are bold yet earthy. The overall effect of the quilt is of paw prints in snow. On sunny days, the colors look so inviting it is hard not to lie down on them and take a nap.

Handmade Bear Paw Quilt and other fine gifts are available from my shop at L Bowman Studios.
