Life If you’re gonna be dumb, you better be tough Shawshank, April 30, 2026 It was quiet this morning. Too quiet. I swear I was going to get up, and check on Podrick. My mind went to, maybe he hurt himself and that’s why he’s not raising hell. But, nope, I took advantage of the quietness. But we’re up now, and it’s bright and… Continue Reading
Life The thing about a small town, word’s gonna get around Shawshank, April 29, 2026 It’s now the middle of the week. Podrick was being Podrick this morning. But, 6:30 is a lot better than 4:30-5, so I’ll take it. He only got me out of bed (and I think deep down, he knows it’ll get me out of bed), because he was playing on… Continue Reading

We wanting the Shady Acres… Continue Reading
Life Honey, you’re the closest to Heaven that I’ll ever be Shawshank, April 26, 2026 Podrick wasn’t really Podrick this morning. He was just loud. Loud wakes me up. Sleep daddy also woke me up. I can’t explain it. Most of the time I like just the quiet music. But today I’ve reset the music to when Timmy’s was talking. But before I actually got… Continue Reading
2 things. Shawshank, April 25, 2026 Just two quick items: We’ve had Podrick the brave, the mighty, the simple for a year. Wow it’s already been a year. Mr Rick as he likes to be called is probably about 20lbs now. Big change from when we brought him home! Continue Reading
