This morning Lola and I made the command decision to clean the house. We couldn’t find a housecleaner that we liked and could afford so we’re doing all the heavy lifting ourselves. Dreams of hiring a housekeeper made us complacent this week. So there I am, moving all of our furniture, when I get the…

Yesterday Lola had to wear the cone of shame due to her fatty tumor on her back leg. And before you freak out, it’s NOT cancer and apparently they just disappear on their own. I freaked out for you, you’re welcome. Today Lola is only wearing the cone when I can’t watch her. I had…

A few weeks ago I noticed a red lump on Lola’s back leg. Of course I immediately yelled out cancer, hugged her so hard she burped, and then proceeded to give her a full body lump exam while on the phone scheduling a vet appointment. Like any level-headed pet owner would do. I took her…

Lola and I had a kersnuffle today. That’s a term we like to use in polite company. It has been hotter than hell here in Washington state. And before all you people start complaining that it is much hotter where you are, we’d both like you to take a shut the hell up pill. Lola…

I cannot believe I am awake right now. What is it, 5am? What the heck is the problem here? Humans wake up, humans take showers, Lola’s continue to sleep. I mean, how hard is it to keep it down in the morning?!

The fact that you want to shank one means you are an actual sociopath. YOU…

So today I took a very scientific test to determine something I suspected about myself for a while now, and the results confirmed what I felt: I would live to see the end of the zombie apocalypse Well thank you baby Jesus! I knew I’d make it out alive. I am loving, but have no…

Today’s my Friday. I decided to take an entire day to just sit around tomorrow after my dawn doctor’s appointment. Or go visit house models and try to pin down what we want to buy. Or just watch Big Bang Theory and read my Kindle. Lola has decided to climb mount St. Helen’s this weekend.…

Disclaimer: No Lolas were hurt in the making of this post. Sometimes Lola wakes up feeling like a piggy. Sometimes she feels like a cow. Other times she wakes up feeling like a groundhog and tries to burrow back into the covers on the bed. Today she woke up just a tad bit…heavier. I realized…

So a while back, Lola created a stockpile of cake grenades. We left off with her sitting on them like North Korea sits on their nukes and tries to play who will blink first games with the US. You can read about it here. Last night Lola lobbed her first cake grenade. She was upset that…
