Life Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee Shawshank, June 14, 2026 It’s a bright and sunny Sunday morning here the birds are singing, and Podrick has finally, mostly, settled down. He was a crazy boy this morning for sure. Everyone has been fed, and Pippin, who dined privately this morning, should be sitting on the table feeling the morning sun, and looking for birds. If a… Continue Reading

Today is the town wide garage sale, and I have to wake up, and get ready to be a pack mule for the day. I moved (I think), everything from the basement up to the garage. So that’ll… Continue Reading

It got a little windy, then no wind at all. Then it got dark. DARK. Then the wind started up again. Then, really, nothing. We got some big fat drizzle for like 45 seconds. I didn’t even… Continue Reading
Life When I need something to calm my nerves yeah, I’d just hold you Shawshank, June 9, 2026 Good morning. What a change from yesterday. I believe we’re in our rain era now. Yep, it’s gray out there today. We’re expecting rain on and off for pretty much most of the day. Podrick was mostly good today. Only using me as a trail on how to get off the bed. I think he… Continue Reading
