Doggie Wheelchair?
Today was that time of year again when I took our little Jackaroo to the vet for his yearly examination. As he gets older, the anxiety related with this appointment increases because I’ll never know what the vet is going to say. In the last year he has completely lost ALL of the fur from…

September
It’s been a busy summer around here and can’t believe it’s September already. Last month we went to Puerto Rico to celebrate my grandmother’s 97th birthday and had a lot of fun. She is doing great and we loved spending that special day with her. We were afraid we weren’t going to make it due…

Incredibly Shrinking Jack
Our little Jackaroo had his annual check up yesterday and is doing okay. Since he’s getting on in years, I worry every time we go to the vet. Last year she told us he was chubby and that we should put him on a diet. Well we did and I am happy to report that…

Spring Update
As we head into May I thought it might be a good idea to update the site and let everyone know what we’ve been up to. Brian is usually the one that does this but I will try to do the best I can. Brian has been really busy with work but doing well. He…

Mr. Jackaroo
Today was the big day to take Jack to the vet for his yearly checkup. Since he is getting older we get a little afraid of what we might hear. He is more than just a pet. He is our friend, our baby and our comfort on tough days. I am happy to report that…

It’s not the heat
More hot and humid weather today as we spent a great deal of it outside at a picnic. This weather pattern we’re in right now is crazy. We just get pounded with fierce storms on a daily basis with plenty of heavy downpours, lightning, and thunder. Jack absolutely loves it.

God is bowling
Ever slept through hours and hours of pounding rain, lightning, and thunder? Neither have we. Last night we had possibly the greatest thunderstorm ever, and that’s saying a lot coming from someone who’s lived in Florida previously. I can’t be certain, but the storm appeared to last at least five hundred hours. In between buckets…

Gardening at Night
I tilled up an area in our backyard this past weekend in anticipation of planting some seeds for our very own vegetable garden. We’re planning on planting tomatoes (yes, I know they are a fruit), cucumbers, green peppers, and maybe some squash. I know Monica wants to experiment with carrots too, but I’m not sure…

Doggie Flu
Remember what I said about Jack being a perfectly healthy dog? Well, that wasn’t exactly true this morning. For a couple of days, he has seemed lethargic, and it all came to a head this morning when he didn’t want to eat his favorite dish in the whole world, rice. All he wanted to do…
