the case of the biochem thief!

I brought in some oatmeal Monday, so that I’d have breakfast there if I wanted it. Wednesday morning I went to get some and it was all gone! Along with 6 cans of soup and an unopened bag of sourdough pretzels.
I was so mad. Whoever took my food went out of their way to not [...]

a weekend alone

…if it can be called that.
My brother left this morning to fly to Philly to visit Risa. I’m glad he got to go. It’s got to be hard to be separated as they are right now. He’ll be gone until Monday night.
He left around 3:30am and the pups joined me on my bed. Luckily they [...]

opinions vs. solutions

I came into work this Saturday morning to rerun an experiment that hasn’t been working for me. But the thing with research is that there is often alot of down time. I’ve been on this site, and another www.zootoo.com mostly. I was asking some “dog”ish questions, looking for possible solutions to Aggie’s small, wildlife fetish [...]

down the road

I’ve been hearing this song on the radio stations recently. I found this link on youtube that shows the words as the song is being played. It has a really nice sound to it. I found out it was written by Mac McAnally and sung by him and Kenny Chesney.
Here are the words incase someone [...]

Valentine’s Flowers

I’ve been wanting to put this on for a week now . Andrew got me flowers for Valentine’s Day. It was a really sweet brother move – thanks Risa!! No really, thank you, Andrew.
I didn’t even have a vase to put them in, so even though I didn’t show it in the picture, they are [...]

bad week… coonskin cap anyone?

It’s not been a good week. Jenner started limping around about the 11th and I took him to the vet on the 13th; she thought maybe a strain. But last week it got worse and swelled up badly. So I had to take him back on Thursday. He has a internal abscess, infection and fever. [...]

Moonfever

I walk my dog twice a day in a park where she can run her feet off. This morning she went alot farther than the usual, but still within the realm of what she’s been known to do. She came back soaking and frosted. I think she was in the creek which is running high [...]

shelter makeover

Last night on my local news I saw how two high schoolers were trying to get the word out about this shelter makeover competition. Our local shelter REALLY needs a makover. It’s pretty pitiful.
I know it’s annoying, but if anyone who reads this can register with the website and put the Central Missouri Humane Society [...]

adventures in the park

I don’t have any pictures, yet, of all the dogs in the park but I keep meaning to take a camera.
I’m beginning to take Lou and Ella with me to the park in the afternoons, with Aggie. I’ve been hesitant to do it because Ella’s been known not to listen, yet I don’t want to [...]

Risa’s afghan

I’m working on a HUGE blanket for my siser-in-law. Whenever I sit down in front of the tv – so not every day, and tonight is a tv night! – I crochet. Tuesday is NCIS and The Mentalist night. So I’ll be busy crocheting my fingers off. It’s good, because I have plenty of yarn [...]
