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!)

Liebestraume Dashed

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

Mushers’ Wax 2

*

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.)

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.

*

Funny, I know someone...

*

Sadly, it only works for Toby.

*

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

Bear Paw Quilt

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.

The Peacoat

*

For real?  Honest?  Yes!

*

Yes!  Every day I get to take a pill that makes me pee a LOT!

*

Mom, can we - Absolutely not!

*

For Heaven's sake, Murphy, how did you manage to soak your entire coat - even the collar?!?

*

I don’t know what you’re complaining about. My pee smells nice.

*

Bitey Mom may be making a joke about pee pills, but inside she is concerned. I know that little Murphy is only on loan from heaven, but I still don’t like seeing his health decline.
