A Friend In Need

Many of us have a friend who is going through a difficult time. Knowing how much she hates de-cluttering posts, I thought I would do another. Mwahaha! (Just a little nonsense for distraction!)

This means there’s more room for biscuits in the house, right?

(Absolutely, little puppy!)

The Sneak Attack

I don't know about you guys, but I'm sick to death of mom sneaking up on me while I'm sleeping and cutting my fur.

She waits till you're asleep?

I kind of like my fur, but I get your point.

I say we wait till she's sleeping and give her a taste of her own medicine. We'll give her a haircut she won't soon forget!

Oh guys, you'll never believe it. I must have been sleepwalking and cut my hair in my sleep. Come see. It's so cute!

How can she possibly like what we did? I tried to make her look like Peppermint Patty!

An Oompa Loompa.

A resident of Whoville.

Each time I got Lyme, my hair fell out. When it started to grow back this last time, I cut my nearly waist-length hair to a chin length bob to even things out. I did this right after Halloween, and nobody noticed. Just three days ago, someone I see practically every week said, “Oh, did you cut your hair?”

I’m starting to wonder if I have the power of invisibility.

You changed something? I didn’t notice.

The Plank In Your Own Eye

You seem to have a little something in your eye. I do?

Yes, somehow I managed to get a foreign body embedded in my eye and had to have minor eye surgery to remove it. Because of the risk of infection, I’m avoiding outdoor/garden work where I may stir up microbes or pollen or anything else. Now Murphy and I are stuck inside during this beautiful spring weather just sitting around and vegging.

You say this like it’s a bad thing.

I Told You It Would Be Mine

What? This is mine.

(If I don’t look at her, she can’t see me.)

All it took was a little rain, and Murphy was scared enough to take over the new quilt. (It’s a good thing he’s so cute.)

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.

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?

Insult to Injury

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!! 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.

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
