Well, sort of. Maybe high more than dry… A bit too much nip sneaked up on me this morning, haha, but our garden has dried out from the rain so that I can now roll in the gravel again. Hey, maybe that’s a song…Rollin’ in the gravel again…out where a friend is a friend🎶 la la la…...
Read MoreWet Behind The Ears
(DID YOU SEE THOSE WAVES?) Yep, that’s what I am. And not just behind the ears… Because even though it has POURED all night and the garden is sopping wet, whatever that means, I think I am a little crazy today because I went OUT IN IT! Hey, we all make mistakes, right? Maybe mama will make...
Read MoreThink Tank
Well, does this ever happen to you? You’re lying around happily, relaxed, spacing out, and a GREAT idea comes to you as a subject for your blog that day, and you think about it and congratulate yourself on your innate, mind-blowing wisdom that thought up such an INCREDIBLE idea and...
Read MoreYo Ho Ho
IS THIS A PIRATE LOOK OR WHAT? So–yo, ho, ho and supposedly, a bottle of rum, whatever that is. I think it’s what mama added to the margarita mix in our freezer when she ran out of tequila, haha. Now we have Margarjitos or Mojaritas but whatever it is, it seems to work well if you put 2 tablespoons of...
Read MorePuddle Jumper
Well, today I was minding my own business in the garden on the terrace and I actually CAUGHT a SUN PUDDLE! But now, what do I DO with it? I’m lying on it with all my weight to keep it in its place! You never know what those sun puddles are up to, right? Well, I gave up when it disappeared right from...
Read MoreHot Dogs
Yes, we’re doing some doggies today. You have a problem with that, mama? Well, every now and then, especially after a doggy visits our (read: MY) home, I feel sort of obligated to bring your attention to some of the darling doggies (mama’s words) that mama meets on her walks through our ville. Or...
Read MoreBulletin Bored…
(Maybe I’ll take cooking lessons…) So there are these cork thingies all over our little town, on which notices are pinned that offer all kinds of activities and art expos and courses that a kitty could ever hope to find, except THIS kitty is perfectly happy snoozing in the sun (while it lasts) and...
Read MoreBeauty And The Beast
Well I was thinking on this tranquil, peaceful Sunday that I could write about other things on this blog having to do with politics or religion or differences of opinion or troubles with our beloved country – all sorts of things like that but instead I just feel more comfortable talking...
Read MoreThe Tomato Thief
Well, maybe some of you know of the wonderful Italian writer who died recently, Camilleri, who gave us funny, charming and often poignant novels set in a little made-up village in Sicily, Vigata. One of his best books was The Snack Thief, so I borrowed his title for that BAAAAAD doggy, Mya,...
Read MoreBack Story
Hey, i need some help here! So here’s the thing. For a couple of nights now mama has been otherwise occupied with papa’s recovery, taking pics of his wound, following the healing, checking on the progress, and I have felt a bit left out in the cold. BUT then I realized that of...
Read MoreChoose Snooze!
Mama, your eyes are closing! Wha…? Well, I really needed help with my blog this evening, but my daily advisor copped…er…sacked out really early, muttering something about not enough hours in the day, muscles-ache from a Pilates start-up after a two-week break, friends and their...
Read MoreToy Ploy
So many toys, so little time, haha. Do you ever do this with your family member: You sit right in the middle of your toys and someone tries to pick one up and play with you by dangling it in front of your cute little pink nose and all you do is look bored and wish they would go play with their...
Read MoreHail, Snail!
SNAIL FEST Oh, boy, was mama surprised today when she went out in the rain and found a very wild party of escargots hanging out on our wall! They had climbed up there overnight and who knows why, other than that it was drier and easy to cling to, haha. For some reason, our snails LOVE that wall....
Read MorePlat du Jour Pour Les Poulets
So where’s MY MENU??? Well, mama has gone completely around the bend. Our kind neighbor who moved away still has his garden and his chickens living there, and he comes over to feed them and tend the garden and he told mama that she could throw things over our fence for them to eat. “They eat salad, leftovers, anything but bread,” he...
Read MoreHospital-ity
(Papa, I’ll look at your scar later, okay?) Well, the only drawback to papa’s very successful stay at the clinic was…you guessed it…the FOOD. Some was unrecognizable. I think they had a dinner chef and a lunch chef. The lunch one won. And we’re in FRANCE! To be honest, it was only...
Read MoreDuck And Cover
(They really should have taken me–I’ve never met a duck.) 🌳 Well, papa was up in his room getting well at the clinic and not walking yet, but mama was able to take a stroll in the lovely park that runs alongside the buildings, and there were amazing trees and a little river that runs through it...
Read MoreWalkabout
GUESS WHO’S BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN… YES, YES, papa is up and walking and being VERY careful not to bend or lean forward, so he practices his Bunny Dip every day if he wishes to pick up something off the floor. Like me, for instance…haha, just kidding. No pick-ups yet… He is waiting for...
Read MoreNo Parc-ing Signs
LIE FLAT LIKE THIS, PAPA. Well, that’s pronounced park so I though I’d be okay with using it…especially since we are OUT of the Clinique du Parc tomorrow, YAY!!! I say “we” but it’s the royal we, whatever that means. Mama and papa are headed home tomorrow and I will be right and...
Read MoreA Patient Patient
Relaxed, at last…and so, so happy for papa. Well, GOOD NEWS! Papa has had his surgery and is recuperating (recuperer—great word in French) beautifully, mama tells me. And boy, is MAMA happy! Even today on the day of the operation, papa got up and walked twice! But he is taking...
Read MoreBack To Back
You know worry beads? Well, this is my trusty worry ball to kick around while waiting for papa to come back from his operation. Better it than harassing that silly doggy next-door. And as I was mentioning a few days ago, papa will be getting his back fix…er…repaired tomorrow...
