I promise Moneypenny got some too and she was very happy the whole game

Let’s go Nats!

Pack walk

Something is wrong with Bella’s butt (I think she got a bug bite) and I know this because every time I say the word butt she runs under my bed.

I took away her laundry pile, so she’s letting me know there’s no way I’m taking away that last folded shirt

Omg guys I zoomed in on her face

Paging @darthbluesky.bsky.social and his deep well of pet knowledge and network. What can I use on my balcony to make it safe for Moneypenny because she hates my wooden spoon mechanism

Need recommendations for what I can put on my balcony to make sure Moneypenny can’t slip through the bars. Please and thank you.

Kidney stones have passed. Move is 99.9% done if unpacking doesn’t count. Proper doggo pictures will finally be take soon. Here is the makeshift Moniez safety device

I’m at the getting better stage where I feel really good for 15-20 min and then have an epic crash where I think I’m never going to be able to get up from bed again. Repeat every 90 min or so.

Helpful tip: Icy Hot Pro patches help with kidney stone pain. Still not feeling up to taking bday picks of Bella, but we are almost fully moved in to our new place - shout out Laura and some very affordable movers because I have been less than useless

Bella is 9 today ( but I have a kidney stone so celebrations will be later). Live that little red girl with everything I have.

Mistakes were made

Found a Van Cleef bracelet on the ground today. Left it there for 2 hours and decided it was ok to pick it up if it was still there. It’s mine now.

Has anyone here had a dog with liver problems? I need advice on next steps. Moneypenny’s bloodwork levels have elevated even further.

Happy to report that Moneypenny is enjoying the muscle relaxers. They seem to be helping a lot.

Update on Moniez: there is something wrong with the spine in her neck. X-rays sent out to specialist. Hopefully we won’t need an MRI. Got sent home with lots of meds which would be useful if I could get her to consume anything at all (striking out on chicken, cheese, PB, ice cream, pill pockets)

Paws in for Moneypenny. She’s not eating or drinking, won’t fully relax, constantly trembling, not barking at anything (and she loves a good bark), & can barely walk the length of my apartment. We have a vet appointment at 2.

It's hard to think about retiring from racing, because mushing is, and will always be, a huge part of my life. So I took a journey with my older dogs, who have retired themselves. They've taught me so much over the years; now, they're teaching me to live with change. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/18/m...

Thinking about when @blairbraverman.bsky.social and Boudicca got me through one of the toughest times of my life. Bella was attacked and almost died just a few months after Boudicca was attacked. Blair’s stories gave me strength and hope. I remember her kindness in responding to my tweets…

So little so cute

Growing up my best friend hated sour cream so I decided I didn’t like it either. Turns out I really love it.

I’ve been really struggling and have needed my mom for months and she can’t find time to get out here but I call her today and she’s on her way to see her boyfriend’s kid in Denver. I’m gonna absolutely lose it.

Haven’t been sleeping well so I didn’t take my adderall today in hopes that giving my system a rest will help make sure nothing interferes tonight & omg this is hell.

I woke up and it felt like I lost all of my cardio fitness overnight…..very troubling

Neither dog wants to cuddle with me right now and honestly it is very rude.

If a platform is going to text me a 2FA code, the least they could do is send it before the time expires. No I don’t want to sit here and wait 5-10 min to log into your app.

Somehow they weight the same???? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

4 of my closest friends in my apartment are moving out in the next 2 weeks and I’m SO SO sad about it.

Turns out I’m pretty good at curling

She’s watching the game with Winnie

Moneypenny had quite the giraffe neck when she was a puppy. She still strictly enforces “all toys are Moniez toys”

I just want one morning when it’s not absolute hell to get out of bed.

I really miss having a cat, but I know my apartment is too small for 2 dogs and a cat. Still…..

Bella has been extra barky since the snow storm which is a lil weird because she doesn’t even like to leave the apartment anyway. She’s in real menace mode & I’m a little scared my neighbors are at the end of their rope with it (although they could slam their doors less and have fewer hall convos)

If you stop in and say hi to the vet, they give you a cute little bandana

If you like tennis, even a little tiny bit, turn on ESPN2 right now and watch the replay of the Australian Open men’s semi-final matches. You won’t regret it. They were both epic.

How does a 10lb dog snore like a trucker? Honestly, it’s so impressive.

I know this sounds silly but both pups pottied and pooped on the first try going outside this morning and I am elated. This is a huge deal for 2 doxies when all of outside a foot a snow and ice.

I think she’s saying: mom if you have to put on 3 layers, I should get to pee indoors.

Every year Moniez has a different reaction to snow. This year she enjoyed it for a few moments before she decided it was simply to cold for her paws, she could not take another step, and cried to be picked up immediately

The people who'll tell you today's murder victim in Minnesota shouldn't have turned up to a protest carrying a gun are the same people who said Kyle Rittenhouse was perfectly entitled to do the same thing.

I’m not really sure I know how to keep going in this country if these agents don’t go to jail for murder. Like I don’t really know how to exist with anyone who could see that and not think cold-blooded execution.

She’s still sad about that Bears loss and doesn’t want to get up yet.

Snugglin’

Truly terrible work by CJ there.

Honestly - more guardian caps please. Purely for visual reasons.

Not gonna lie - sometimes I just really miss @blairbraverman.bsky.social and @quincemountain.bsky.social

Our first ever tongues out Tuesday.
