From the Desk of My Dog, Moses:

My family has been quarantined. They say there is a bad virus going around and in order to protect everyone they need to stay inside. I already pretty much do this everyday. I like getting out for my walks 🦮 but I like being inside my house.

In addition to Mom 👩‍💻, who was working from home but got laid off due to virus, my sister 👸 is now off from school and my Dad is working from home. So all of my people are home!

My sister was kind of getting lonely at first. I tried telling her to take a nap but my Mom says there is no way an 8 year old body will nap, it can hardly stay still.  I’m 13 in human years so I don’t understand. I can stay still really well. 💤💤💤

Anyway, her school started using this app called Zoom. And you can use it in your personal life too for free (it’s used video conferencing technology) so my sister started using it for play dates with several friends at once. 👧🏼👦🏻👦🏻🧒🏽🧒🏾👧🏾.  My sister went to her first online birthday party yesterday!    🥳

She showed me how to use it so I called some of my friends.  Like Lucy, the Golden Retreiver, in Orange County, who used to live in my neighborhood. It was so good to visit with her!  (Pictures below of my friends I visited).

I can see why the humans want to use this app. You can take screenshots while you are talking and send pictures. My sister’s class at school even got on the app and those kids showed their pets!  Penny showed me and other kids showed birds and hamsters and cats!  I’m glad the humans have this app to stay connected.

Personally, I just need a good ear rub to be happy but those human ears seem like they’d be hard to rub.  How is your Coronavirus quarantine going? Let me know below. My mom would like to hear from you. 🗣🗣🗣

Buffalo Wild Wings

When I was going to Michigan State University, my friends and I would always go to BW3's for hot wings. They always had a variety of flavored wings from Honey BBQ to steaming hot, hot, death wings. Wings and a beer were just the thing to satisfy a busy student's appetite. When we frequented BW3's it was a dive bar but by the time my brother graduated from MSU they swapped locations for a building across the street and turned the name to Buffalo Wild Wings and the restaurant became more like a chain thing. Well, color me shocked the other day when we went to the movies and I saw a Buffalo Wild Wings being built in the AMC Burbank 16 complex. Apparently, after looking on their website they are one of the fastest top 10 chains in the US. So of course I had to introduce the hubby to one of my favorite college treats. I don't think he is so much a fan of chicken wings so we got boneless chicken wings a.k.a. tasty little chicken chunks in two of the flavored sauc...

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

The Lost Art of Letter Writing

This week I was the recepient of two postcards. In the age of e-mailing and blogging this is a rare occurrrance. It's not that people don't write anymore it's just they are doing it in different forms and I think in less personal forms. It's kinda sad when you think about it. For me, there is nothing better then getting a hand written letter in the mail because it means someone was specifically thinking about you. Writing a letter these days takes a lot of effort when GMail is so near. I mean a person has to pick out stationary (if they even have any on hand), find time to sit down and compose a letter (and who has a spare half hour these days?), find or buy a stamp and actually walk the letter to the mailbox. With all this effort, no wonder people email these days! My girlfriend Becky and I joke that the United States Postal Service has become "Snail Mail." Most times before a letter gets to us these days we already know the information inside ...
