Handles

My bunny slipper ears are not "Mom Handles"! My tail is not a "Dog Handle"!

Yeah…no more bunny slippers around here.

My tail is NOT a “Dog Handle”!

To get a handle on your little monsters’ terrible behavior, exhaust them by taking them to the Museum of the Imagination with Bitey and Toby’s book, Dream Our World!

Inside, my boys visit the museum of their dreams while enjoying a day of unsupervised fun. A gift that is fun for all ages.

Dream Our World is available from my shop and from Amazon.

A Whatosaurus?

Roar! I'm a Chronosaurus: I've come to eat our Times...or maybe Fossil.
A Chronosaurus? Where do you come up with this nonsense? Trust me. I wouldn't be doing this if mommy could hear better.

Did you know that there is such a thing as a Kronosaurus? I didn’t. (Although older visitors might remember them from the playground when they were children.) In addition, there also existed a Charonasaurus. To make matters even more confusing, there is the Chronosaurus which is a species of time-traveling dinosaur from a contemporary video game.

I thought I had misheard someone say “Chronosaur” instead of “dinosaur” and my mind leapt to Langolier-style lizards eating time and those who failed to evolve. Turns out the speaker really did say Chronosaur.

I guess the take away from this is that while I am hopelessly out of touch both with ancient sciences and contemporary games, at least my hearing is OK.

That is a matter of debate. I have been telling you that I am hungry for weeks, but you never seem to hear.

ASL Alien Hand Pillow with Galaxies

Whether or not you have perfect hearing, you can enjoy this hand-appliqued ASL Alien Hand Pillow! Pistachio green alien hand signs “I Love You” to everyone nearby as galaxies swirl in the background (as galaxies are wont to do, of course). This 12″ square pillow would make a wonderful gift for someone you love.

Alien Hand Pillow is available from my shop.

Snow Boinging

Aren't you getting tired of saying "Boing, boing, boing" every time you run? Never!
You're just jealous because I am too light to fall through the snow!

While our snow stopped during the night, the wind continued till morning. We ended up with knee-high drifts over most of the yard. Toby still loves boinging out in the snow, but now that he has put on extra weight, he no longer lands on top. I suspect Geordie is having a big laugh at his expense this week!

If you would like to have more laughs at Toby’s expense, pick up a copy of Dream Our World. Inside, Bitey and Toby visit the museum of their dreams and enjoy a day of unsupervised fun!

It Snowed!

Guess what? It snowed!
Whee!
Puppy makes snow angels.
Puppy dives into fresh snow.
Puppy does the backstroke in fresh snow.
Puppy digs in fresh snow.
Hello...what's this? They grew back?

Toby couldn’t wait to wake me up this morning to tell me that it snowed. He was so impatient to go out that he didn’t even ask for my breakfast. Once he got out, he Boing! Boing! Boinged! all over the place. It was so nice to see him happy and bouncy again!

The cold temperatures and 5″ of powder were all worth it to watch my puppy in the snow.

Waiting for Santa

If you would like to share some puppy cheer, consider sending friends and family these Waiting for Santa greeting cards. (Without the watermark, of course.) The inside is blank so you can decide if your household is a “Merry Christmas” or a “Season’s Greetings” one.

These and other great gifts are available from my shop, L Bowman Studios.

You Just Wouldn’t Understand!

I hate being cooped up in the house all the time like this...not being allowed outside...not being allowed to see friends...You wouldn't know what it's like. I'm the unluckiest anyone in the world. Yeah, Tell me about it.

I think most of Stinky McPooperson’s crabbiness comes from his diet. He got really used to humans giving him food to be “the magical talking dog” (as the little ones call him), and a mere two meals a day is getting on his nerves.

Thamnophis Brachystoma

It says here the snake will emit a foul odor from its anal glands if you try to pick it up. It farts? I knew I loved these things!

I don’t know if this is the same snake that was the garden earlier this year or a different one. Either way, this one is about 3x larger than the first. I was able to find it because Toby tried to stick it up his nose.

This was the baby that came to visit in the spring.

Snake and dead toad

Geordie was petrified of snakes and wouldn’t go near them. At least I didn’t have to worry about him being bitten.

Real Life Me is a badass.

Black Pearls

What the heck, Toby. You must have swallowed one of my hairs. It's like a string of black pearls back here. This wouldn't happen if you didnt eat off the floor.
This wouldn't happen if you ran the vacuum more often!

But Toby, you hate the vacuum!

Back end of Cairn terrier sticks out from under the bed.

I know….

Fast & Furious

Hey look! There's a FAst and Furious marathon on this weekend!
Is that some sort of Vin Diesel crack? No, I really like the intricate plot twists and witty dialogue.
Wisper. Whisper.
I mean, i like the cars. The cars are cool. Well OK.

Just kidding. I have a little more hair than that.

To see more of the mischief my boys have been up to, pick up a copy of Dream Our World. So far, the boys have been running around the local museum for nine months. I can’t imagine what they have been up to while we humans have been locked out.
