Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! Marc and I took Pooka on her first commercial flight from Atlanta to Denver for the Thanksgiving holiday. We plan on taking her to Italy for my family’s Christmas holiday and I wanted to test out how she would do one a commercial flight. Especially considering she hasn’t been in anything resembling […]
The Pooka
The quicker picker-upper
Sundays are for ice cream
We are lucky enough to live in a neighborhood in which we can walk to a lot of the coolest places in Atlanta. Makes Pooka and I feel less guilty about having ice cream 🙂 Don’t worry, it’s doggie ice cream. And she loves every lick!
Saying another goodbye
My family and I have always been more of mountain people in the argument over mountain v. beach. But growing up in Florida it does kind of make sense to have a beach house for weekends and summers. Especially because when one has young kids, the beach really is fun. So a few years after we […]
The best day of the year!
It’s National Dog Day! Woot woot! If you are a regular reader here (all five of you), you know I’m obsessed with my princess fur baby The Pooka Monster. So today (like every day) we celebrate her! All hail the Queen!
Lake Lover
The Snuggle Is Real
The only part about traveling that I don’t like is having to leave my sweet fur baby behind. If I could take her easily with me, I definitely would! Thankfully I have awesome friends and family who shower her with love on my behalf when I am away. But I’m always so glad to get […]

Happy National Pet Day – Belated
I may have missed National Pet Day (so many “holidays” to keep track of) by one day but it doesn’t mean I love my little ray of sunshine any less.
End of an era (trying to hold back the tears)
I grew up on a 200 acre thoroughbred horse farm in Ocala, Florida. I cannot imagine a better way to be raised as a child. In the summers I was outdoors 10 hours a day. We didn’t have Nintendo and weren’t allowed to turn on the TV until the sun went down, and even then it […]
Happy National Puppy Day!
Way back when Pooka was a tiny little puppy and I just brought her home. She’s still the same rascal now as she was then. And I love her for it.
Doggie birthday cupcakes
Pooka’s 10th birthday was on Feb 1st and being the good dog mom that I am, I baked her a birthday cake. Actually they were birthday cupcakes. She’s a little thing so I thought it would be smarter to go the cupcake route. She’s a dog, she doesn’t know the difference. Pooka loves fruits and vegetables. […]
T E N!
I can’t believe she’s 10 years old today! I’ve had her since she was 10 weeks old. I love this stinking dog more than any human should love a pet. Can’t help it though, just look at her, she’s so darn cute! Ten years old and still as spunky and frisky as when she was […]
