Back to the grind

, , , , / 1 minute of reading /

While it may seem that I do not work very hard, nothing could be further from the truth. The fact is, the trip to Sturgis was the closest thing to a real vacation I have had in quite a while. These other travels have been more like working road trips. Naturally, I did fit in some work while on the trip, but it was secondary. Yesterday was my first full day back home, so I had lots of paperwork to take care of, and Buddy needed his trip to the groomer. My photo of the day for Day 231 is …

Starbucks Dinner

, , , , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

A few weeks ago I saw an ad on Facebook targeting Starbucks’ fans that lived in California. They were giving away coupons to try their new Artisan Snack Plates. Their offerings seemed to be on the healthy side and since I had not had dinner yet, Buddy and I decided to walk up to the local Starbucks and try it out. Since I was kind of hungry I went for the one that looked to be the most filling, the chicken and hummus on wheat flatbread. It was okay and probably better for me than a cinnamon swirl pastry, so …

Happy birthday, Buddy

Four years ago today, Buddy was born in a barn in the middle of Nowhere, Indiana. Seriously, you could not find the location if you tried. My GPS could not even help me find it. Luckily, I happened to be visiting Tanya a few days after he was born. I knew immediately that this was a puppy that I wanted to make my own. What I did not know at the time was that Tanya had already decided that he was the puppy she wanted. Lucky for me, she just smiled and said I could have him. It has been …

Quality Time

Day 214 of my photo a day project. It was Monday and as happens, the maids came. Since I had to give them some time to work around my desk, Buddy and I decided it would be a good time to go outside and play in the front yard for a while. Quality time is what it is all about. My photo of the day is of Buddy and me enjoying the nice day and checking out activity in the neighborhood.

Visit To the Vet

, , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

Last night, Buddy was in obvious discomfort with severe itching. I did what I could for him, but this morning I was not convinced that I had done enough, so I called his vet to see if they could see him today. Unfortunately, they could not see him until tomorrow and I did not want to wait that long, so they referred us to another down the street. We went in and they could not find anything wrong with him. They gave him a shot of cortisone to help the itching, suspecting he had some kind of summer allergy. While …

What a beautiful day

Buddy has yet to meet a new day he has not liked. Some days are just better than others. Today is one of those days. When we went out for our morning walk we were greeted with sun shine, blue skies and mild temperatures. When we headed to the park, Buddy was beside himself as the grass seemed to have some well placed twigs buried within that made it the perfect back scratcher. Day 209’s photo of the day is of Buddy getting rid of an itch.

Just Kicking Back

Buddy seems to find himself in the weirdest positions when he is relaxing. I am not exactly sure how he can possibly be comfortable, I suspect his father was a snake. My picture of the day for day 204 shows Buddy wound up around the legs of one of my dining room chairs. As you can see, he appears to be content.

The Road to Psycho Donuts

Photos From Psycho Donuts [adrotate group=”6″] Campbell, CA, I learned about Psycho Donuts, in Campbell, CA via their Facebook page. A quick look at their specialty donuts convinced me that I needed to take a drive up there and sample their goods. This past weekend Tanya, Buddy and I made the journey. We had a good time and met some nice people along the way. [adrotate group=”1″]

How did I get here?

I guess it is a good thing that I take a picture a day, or I might have a real problem keeping track of where I have been and what I have done. This has been a busy month to be sure. Time to catch up with my Project 365 updates. At midnight on Day 197, Tanya and I decided to drive up to Campbell, CA to visit Psycho Donuts. Unfortunately, we did not make it due to the fact that we forgot Tanya’s laptop at home. When we walked in the door I discovered a water inlet hose to …
