Tails of Maggie & Katie: Need a couple of extra dogs?
Tails of Maggie & Katie: Need a couple of extra dogs?
by B. A. Brown
I have two I would be glad to ship to you. In a styrofoam box, with dry ice to ensure freshness.
Nice and early this a.m. - before the sun was up -- I woke to the ominous sounds of a dog barfing.
I turned on the light (I now know better than to just leap out of bed; Chester used to come and wake me up AFTER he had barfed, customarily right next to the bed. Apparently he felt it important that I know, but not important enough to tell me prior to the event.).
Nothing untoward in view.
I get up, turn on the hall light, look around. Nothing yet.
I cross to the lamp in the living room, turn it on.
Oh. There it is.
Someone has barfed on the couch. Not only that, but they have prepared the landing area prior to ejection. They have carefully removed the sheets to expose the bare upholstery first.

Tails of Maggie & Katie: Educational TV? pfui
Tails of Maggie & Katie: Educational TV? pfui
by B. A. Brown
The Eukanuba Dog Show was less than educational and, if you judge by the interest evinced by the canine members of my household, incredibly boring.
I made them watch. They kept nodding off.
I pointed with awe at the screen: "LOOK! That dog called 911 and saved her Mom's life!"
They raised their heads for a brief moment, and then dropped back down,soon snoring.

Dog Doogle Tails: The Great Pheromone Experiment
Dog Doogle Tails: The Great Pheromone Experiment
by B. A. Brown
Maggie has issues.
She has separation anxiety. She has a morbid fear of thunderstorms (and firecrackers). She is afraid of travelling in cars.
No, that is not quite right. Maggie refuses to travel in cars. Period. (and you might imagine the joys of driving from NY to Seattle with Maggie, but only if you have seen every horror movie ever made).
Maggie is afraid of strangers. She is afraid of my elderly parents, who have dutifully brought treats and cookies with them every time they visit.

Tails of Maggie & Katie: Some days, you just oughta have stood in bed
Tails of Maggie & Katie: Some days, you just oughta have stood in bed
by B. A. Brown
Some days, you just oughta have stood in bed!
It being a very nice warm day. I was inspired. Early this morning,went out, dug up weeds, carted weed stuff to pile I decided to start behind the garage. Managed about 8 x 2 foot area. Spread some flower seeds. Watered. Still have another 12 x 2 foot to go alongside the house, and then another three largish spots in the front. I will be circumspect, and only do a little bit at a time, lest I overdo the physical bit.
I ignore the blisters on my hand. I ignore the ache. It was worth it,right? OK, I shower. Comb my hair, sit down with a book. Wake up an hour or so later. Body refuses to move. All joints loudly protest. Muscles laugh in defiance when I ask them to start the walking process.
Damned flowers had better look good. And my plans for additional weeding & seeding are now somewhat reduced in scope.
