My Boo – A Post by Christmas Puppy

Years of patient waiting have finally paid off. Today I got the best Christmas present in the world… a new friend!

(It turns out all puppies are social – even decorative ones!)

At least she’s no longer talking about making me sit out there.

The Chilly Chorkie

Seriously? Do you realize how much time you’ve wasted drawing this stupid thing just to make fun of me for needing a coat?

My Cairn boys were built for winter. In fact they didn’t like any temperature above 55′. Murphy, despite his long, luxurious fur, is a summer guy. The poor little thing nearly froze to death when our temps dropped this week.

Unfortunately, the coat that fits him best is a pink hand-me-down. I keep trying to tell him it is light red, but he insists that even he is not that colorblind. Hmm, maybe Santa will have a new coat on the sleigh for Murphy…

I may be partially colorblind, but I can still smell girl dog on this coat.

Sharks are Cool

Why are you wearing booties to swim? Did you lose a bet?

Sharks ar cool, right? Of course they are. They're so cool they're practically penguins.

Do you mean Burgess Meredith "Penguin" or Robin Lord Taylor? How do you know about them? Duh. We TV at my other house too. Honestly, I don't know why I hang around with your guys!

I don’t really care what you wear as long as I don’t have to go along.

(So far Murphy hasn’t shown the enthusiasm for water that his brothers had.)

While this might seem like an odd topic, I was very nervous about going swimming again after having developed so many allergies/sensitivities. I was concerned that even with shower sandals, if I were walking across a floor where personal care items were draining, they might splash onto my skin and cause a reaction.

My solution is to wear aqua socks while in the shower room and in the pool, only changing out of them once I reach my locker. If you happen to be one of lucky few with MCAS, I wanted to let you know that this might be a choice to help keep safe in a locker room or pool. (Usually this condition doesn’t surface until your 20s, so hopefully high school swim class will already be behind you.) Aqua socks are made of neoprene, so water doesn’t go through them. As a plus, they give extra traction on slippery floors.

And even though I am the only nerd wearing them, I totally rock these aqua socks.

Hey guys, I am getting ready to go swimming. How do I look? Out of this world?

Yeah….if you are a pasty white person, don’t get the gray swim cap.

It’s the Great Pumpkin, Stinky Beasts

If the Great Pumpkin shows up, I get to eat him, right?

(Even the docents at the museum were impressed with the amount of research I put into the book. Come on, give it a try. It would make a great gift for someone you love!)

The Pumpkin Patch

I’m not sure if the Great Pumpkin will visit us, but it looks like the Great Horned Owl did.

This year my garden yielded mostly rabbits and bugs. The exception was that I did get pumpkins. I took this picture while I was still harvesting them, so this isn’t their full number. In all I picked 49.

(Off to the left is what happens if you don’t pick zucchini in time.)

Can we go visit the garden?

While the pumpkins were in the garden, Murphy didn’t seem to realize what they were. He was more interested in the rotten tomatoes.

When I moved the pumpkins to the porch, he still didn’t seem to recognize what they were.

Once I started bringing them inside to cook them, he suddenly noticed them. Now he is a total pest wanting more, more, more. (I tried handing him one of the smaller pumpkins to play with or eat, but he turned his nose up at it. He wanted it cooked first.)

Gimme! Gimme! That’s dog food. I know it!

Helpful Autumn Life Advice

Don’t eat the grapes below the level of the dog.

The grapes? I was just looking at them. Honest.

(Don’t worry. Murphy is always supervised and is not allowed to eat any of the grapes.)

Oh geez, what happened to you? Mommy seems to think I'm nearsighted because I bark and growl at her every time I see her in a hat.

I can’t believe you think I might be nearsighted.

What have I ever done to give you that impression?

Actually, a number of people have commented that they think Murphy might not have perfect vision. Starvation can affect the eyes, so it is possible. To me it is funny that he never seems to recognize me in a hat even though I wear them all the time.

I dunno…I think my glasses look good on him!
