Good morning, and happy Saturday to you all. It is 10 September 2022. I’m tossing the weird orange ball around the dining room table and living room for Lily… she seems to be the only dog we have out of five that will bring a tossed ball back to the original tosser. Odin is outside …

It is Friday morning! Happy Friday, everybody! (OK, when Wayne sees this, it will likely be Saturday for him, time zones and date lines being what they are). 9 September 2022. Yesterday was kind of a bummer for fans of the British monarchy, as the 96-year-old leader of the British royal family passed, Queen Elizabeth …

It is Thursday morning, 8 September 2022. I’m slow rolling up on my day, dogs (most of ’em anyway) are outside. I’m thinking about breakfast, at this point focused on something involving eggs, another protein, and cheese. That other protein is the sticking point – I have bacon, sausage, and ham… and that makes for …

It is Wednesday morning, the 7th day of September, 2022. I woke up this morning with the phone. My oldest child had a problem. Due to some construction, she was not able to park her car in her driveway as she usually does, so she had to park on the street. You can probably guess …

Good morning, folks! It is Tuesday, 6 September 2022, and I have to run to the computer store later to buy a new UPS. Looks like one of my smaller UPSs has given up the ghost, so later this morning, I’ll be running to the computer store and will hopefully avoid any unnecessary impulse purchases, …

Good morning! It is Labor Day, the first Monday of September, 5 September 2022. Odin is whimpering about not getting a slice of bacon off the table, Bonnie is over on the loveseat with her dog, Ruthie, and I’ve got Freya and the sisters Von Floof sitting on the couch between Lisa and me. Yesterday …

It is Saturday morning, 3 September 2022, and I am floof wrestling. Rosy and Lily are being particularly needy this morning, demanding attention, climbing up on my laptop, and being general nuisances. Cute, needy, lovable, fluffy nuisances. I’ll throw the little orange ball in a few moments, Lily, just give me a moment to crank …

It is Thursday morning, 1 September 2022, and it is a good day. Lisa gets back home tonight, it’s the first day of a new month, and it is also my last classroom day for a couple of weeks. Alright. I can do this! Dogs had a pretty good evening last night. There was some …

It is Wednesday morning, 31 August 2022. Today will be a good day… Odin slept through the night (for the most part), I swing into Day 3 of my security course, and it’s payday… I’ll take it. Odin sleeping through the night and not baying at the moon or barking incessantly made for a more …

It is Tuesday morning, 30 August 2022. I am not in a great mood right now… thank you, Odin, Lily, and Rosy. Lisa has a meeting out of town, so she went to the airport very early this morning, leaving the house by 3:30 AM. I normally get up about 5:30… but Odin doesn’t care. …
