Monday Musings: Puppy Update, You Can All Decorate for Christmas Now, and Writing Progress

~ M.A. Kropp

I think it's time for a puppy update. 🙂 We took him with us when we went to our daughter's in MA last weekend. We had our big Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday, as that was the best day for everyone's schedule. It gets harder every year to work around those things! The BaldMan's family came … Continue reading Monday Musings: Puppy Update, You Can All Decorate for Christmas Now, and Writing Progress

Monday Musings: Garden’s End, Puppy Days, Italian Markets, and Football

~ M.A. Kropp

It has gotten decidedly chilly lately. Not quite freezing yet, but the overnight temps have dropped into the thirties a few times. The tomato plants in the garden have pretty much given up, along with the cucumbers and squash. I have a few beans on the vines, and the carrots are still going. The peppers … Continue reading Monday Musings: Garden’s End, Puppy Days, Italian Markets, and Football

Tuesday Thoughts

~ M.A. Kropp

There was no Monday Musings post yesterday. We were away for the weekend at a chili cook off, and I needed yesterday for a recovery day. Funny thing is, I didn't really feel as tired as I usually do right after the cook off on Saturday, but by the time we stopped for lunch on … Continue reading Tuesday Thoughts

Just some random updates and thoughts today: How is the puppy doing, you ask? (And even if you didn't, I am going to tell you, anyway.) He is doing great! He was quite good at his Level 2 Obedience class last week. Much more focused and ready to work than the last time we tried … Continue reading Monday Musings: A Little of This, A Little of That

Monday Musings: Puppy Update, She’s Moving Out!, and C-c-c-c-cold

~ M.A. Kropp

Lambeau is doing fine. He has gotten visibly bigger since we brought him home just a few weeks ago. Had him to the vet for his second set of shots. He goes back next month for the last round, and his rabies. He will start on heartworm medication, as well. The vet did think he … Continue reading Monday Musings: Puppy Update, She’s Moving Out!, and C-c-c-c-cold

Monday Musings: Puppy In The House, Piano Tuning, and the Chili Cookoff I May Regret

~ M.A. Kropp

Could someone please remind me why I wanted a puppy? I am kidding. Sort of. I mean, he is stinkin' cute, but boy, oh, boy, is he ever a puppy. There are times when all you hear in the house is: Lambeau, No! Lambeau, Off! Bad Dog! He is not really a terrible dog. He … Continue reading Monday Musings: Puppy In The House, Piano Tuning, and the Chili Cookoff I May Regret

Monday Musings: Puppy!

~ M.A. Kropp

As many of you know, we had to euthanize our chocolate Lab at twelve years old recently. We knew we would get another dog fairly soon, but I intended to wait until after the holidays. Not that our holiday season is hectic, or includes a lot of travel, and such, but it is a busier … Continue reading Monday Musings: Puppy!
