Every day is some kind of special day on the internet. Actually, I think we should consider every day a special day – another day to live and love. But the special days I’m talking about are when somebody – I don’t know who – declares that this is “Ice Cream for Breakfast Day” or “Eat a Pizza Day.” I …
“You start pretending to have fun; you might even have a little by accident.” – Alfred Pennyworth, Batman’s butler and friend The Caption Game continues. This picture and one more and I’m saving the best picture for last. Well, I think it’s the best anyway. In keeping with my play theme and with Halloween coming up, here’s a photo of …
Our brains are built to benefit from play no matter what our age. ~Theresa A. Kestly It’s my birthday month so it’s time to have some fun and to give away some books. Of course, you can check out Last Sunday’s post, Mining Parenting Memories, and leave a comment on that post to be entered in a drawing for a …
“The dog lives for the day, the hour, even the moment.” ~Robert Flacon Scott Okay so Sunday’s mystery photo wasn’t a great mystery. A lot of you knew what it was. I guess the pecan mystery picture was my tricky highlight (so far) and this one my low light. But that’s okay. I’m fine with some right guesses. It definitely …

Some day, if I ever get a chance, I shall write a book, or warning, on the character and temperament of the dachshund and why he can’t be trained and shouldn’t be. I would rather train a …
Thanks to all of you who are playing my Caption Giveaway Game. You came up with some good ones last time. The hay bale had some of you thinking about that lost needle in a haystack. Kathy even mentioned finding gold. Since my grandson looks so happy, others of you had him feeling victorious and being king of the hay/straw/mountain/world. …
“Tomorrow’s victory is today’s practice.” ― Chris Bradford, The Way of the Warrior Above is picture number 2 just waiting for your clever captions. Thanks to all of you who suggested captions for Sunday’s picture of the kids and the horse. Many of you thought the horse might be wishing the kids had something a bit more appetizing to offer. …
“A picture is worth a thousand words.” Do you remember saying that or hearing that? I think it used to be true. Pictures back when didn’t lie. If somebody took a picture of you, you might not like how you looked but you had to admit it was how you had looked at that instant of the shutter clicking. Now, …
“A name can’t begin to encompass the sum of all her parts. But that’s the magic of names, isn’t it? That the complex, contradictory individuals we are can be called up complete and whole in another mind through the simple sorcery of a name.” ― Charles de Lint, Dreams Underfoot I’m working on a new book. That means I’m having …
