Lately I’ve noticed something different when I go outside to do my zoomies. It’s getting warmer here in the desert. I like it. The sun warms my bones when I lay on the grass. I’ve also noticed some of our neighbors packing their cars and leaving. Where are they going and why? Do you suppose…
Gypsy stopped talking to me. This makes me very sad since it took three years to find her. Gypsy is my GPS system, also known as Apple CarPlay, in my 2020 Toyota RAV 4 LE. (I’ve come to the realization that LE stands for Low End. I have to actually insert and turn a key,…
I’ve heard talk that April 1st is April Fools’ Day, but I don’t know what that means. My mom looked it up on the little TV she watches in her office (even though I try to distract her by dropping my ball in her lap or licking my lips for a snack). She told me…
I’m a lucky dog. I lick my lips and get a cookie. I show my puppy-dog eyes and get on the sofa. I toss a ball from my mouth, and it will be thrown for me to retrieve. I stare at my dad, and he’ll give me an after-dinner treat. In addition, I received a…
When I was just a pup I remember playing with my two brothers in a place where there were lots of dogs waiting to be adopted. The three of us were pretty rambunctious and earned the names Curly, Moe, and Larry. I’m not sure what those names mean, but when our story is told, people…
How exciting. The year 2025 came in with a bang with an unexpected trip to Cruise ER. I wasn’t sure what clothes to take, but I knew it might be chilly, so I spent several minutes in my closet choosing grey sweats and stylish tops. My shoes were a furry lined Sketchers boat slip on,…
2025 marks my twelfth new year. New Year’s Eve is pretty much a non-event around my house. Dad goes to bed, and I sit with Mom on the sofa while we watch a shiny ball fall down a tower. I wonder what happens to it when it reaches the ground. I wish I could chase…
Do you smell that? It smells like the holidays. I have a pretty good sniffer, you know. I make sure I inspect every bush, tree, and rock on my walks with Mom. She tries to hurry me along, but I’m not having it. I want to see if I know anyone who’s been to the…
Not only did Larry publish a book, Larry’s Words of Wisdom, he now writes articles for the Neighbors of Sun City West magazine. Well, he’s written one article so far, and it’s going to be published in November 2024. I thought you’d like to read what he has to say: Hi! I’m Larry. I have…
My daddy taught me how to swim, and I’ve had a swimming pool in my backyard for 36 years of my life. When we moved from Glendale to Phoenix, we decided against a pool because the desert dust storms created a mud bath, and husband was tired of trying to keep it from turning green….
