Oh, to yet be young
I tire at the thought of it
I’ll sit and look wise

BFF ~ Best Furry Friends
When a new dog you meet,
with a snarl you may greet.
Invitations to play
will go a long way,
or sharing a tree
where you both can go pee.
A trip to the coast,
getting sand in your coats;
by the end of the day
a best friend you have made.
Dogs that smile make me smile, too.

Weekend Wildcard: Cuteness Break
This past week has been a tempest of chaos on many fronts and in many parts of the world. We are in the midst of very stressful times, and with 24/7 media, it is easy to become overwhelmed by all the crazy stuff going on these days.
While it’s imperative to stay engaged — at whatever level seems right at the moment –, it’s also necessary to step back sometimes, unclench my jaws…
and look at photos of cute pets.
I know, I know… Facebook… Instagram… blogs… they’re glutted with fuzzy/furry/feathered little faces.
But you know what? I’m going to happily and shamelessly add to that glut. I’m going to indulge myself in cuteness overload. My blood pressure will thank me, my jaws might stop aching, and I might even lose that recently acquired eyelid tic.
Here’s hoping.
(BTW: Today is National Dog Day, but we’re going to let a couple of cats slip in here, too.)
Sebastian and Chules are hiding under the bed in response to my rendition of Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline.
Finnigan has a very colorful personality.
My cat Thursday is trying to look adorable so that I will feed her a second breakfast.
Chules is learning to play chess.

Ahhh, I feel much better now.
I wish you all restful and pleasant moments this weekend.
Shalom.

Under the Full Moon
We all know that seemingly ordinary folks turn into werewolves during full moons, right? Well, they’re not the only ones to transform.
Take my seemingly innocent dog Chules for example. He loves to go out and explore in the moonlight.
But sometimes… he morphs into:
a charging bear
or a lone wolf
howling at the moon
or maybe a rearing stallion
or a zombie!
Scariest of all is when he turns into
a hyena!
Fortunately, once the full moon begins to wane, he turns back into his lovable self.
What creatures do you see when you venture out on a full moon?

Maze Days
Some days you feel like you can tackle the whole corn maze.
Other days it’s enough just to sniff at the husks for a bit.
