Tails of Two Tibbies | Walkies with Karl the Fog

Tyler: “Wiggles and howls everyone! Long time no see! Did you miss us? Got treats?”

Cody: “Awrooooooo! There are unknown humans at our house, they are dressed in white and have containers of smelly stuff. Our food bowls have been moved, along with everything else. They even put up these scary white ghostly things between the kitchen and the living room. Don’t they know Halloween is over? Sgroof! I’m worried….”

Tyler: “My brother the worrier. Mommy said they are painting the kitchen and living room and that is why the plastic curtains are up and everything is gone into the other rooms. I’m cool with that, as long as I can find my food bowl and there is chicken in it.”

Cody: “Snort… sgroof… I’m still worried. Good thing Mommy took pity on us and took us out for a ride and a walkie early. This is so much more fun. I love coming here where the grass is still green and soft and sniffing each and every blade.”

Tyler: “Yeah, it takes you forever to pick up your pee-mail! And I always have to hear ‘Wait Tyler, come on Cody!’. But it is nice here, and I could go for car rides all day every day!”

Cody: “Me, too! Me, too! And don’t you just love it when there are all these leaves and the fog makes everything so cool and quiet?”

Tyler: “Love it! Did you know that here in San Francisco the fog’s name is Karl? I like that name… Karl the Fog. Yes, I really like it. Is there any chicken? And I love cooling my belly in the grass, especially with all these fun leaves! Uh-oh, I see one of our buddies coming, let me put on my focused pup look.”

Cody: “Great! We get to sniff some butt! Me first, me first! I’m the oldest after all… Oh yeah, We’ve met this one before. I like her. Ok, lose interest, move on. Next!”

Tyler: “Hold on, hold on, I have to do my turns and go potty…” Looking at Mommy: “Is this right?”

Cody: “You are still checking with her to see if you are doing it in the right place? Don’t you know by now? You are a big dog and not a piddly pup anymore, for chicken’s sake!”

Tyler: “Chicken? Did you say chicken?! Mommy can we go get some chicken? Or treats…. either will do. Yeah? BOL! Bye Karl! We are going to get some chicken!”

Cody: “Whaaat? We have to go back where the scary, noisy strange humans are? There better be LOTS of chicken. Sigh… Bye Karl! Bye everyone!”

Tyler: “Oh yeah, bye everyone! Chickeeeen!”

Cody trots off picking up speed, pulling us along, the Mission Impossible theme starts playing in the background.

Photographed with iPhone5 on an early and foggy fall morning in Marin. Not too shabby for an iPhone5, but then FFF (fog and fall foliage) make everything better, don’t you think?

    Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mothers and to all those who have been mothering in some way.
Here is mine. She no longer looks quite like this, though this is how I think of her and I am sure this is how she thinks of herself.

The main thing is that she is still with us, despite all the challenges. I get to talk to her every day and will be spending more time with her in a few weeks. That is a blessing I don’t take lightly.

    For those who have missed it or who don’t get my newsletter, there is a new post on the blog in which I share about my personal experiences with various holistic treatments and therapies on my wellness journey.

It is the 5th installment in my Self Help series, which begins with chapter one and dealing with panic attacks. You can easily find the previous 4 once you get to this newest one. The link is in profile under “latest post”, or you can comment WELLBEING below and I will be happy to send you the link directly.

Don’t you just love peonies?
Love and blessings,
Monica

    Good Morning!

The official rose month is just around the corner, and there are already roses blooming everywhere in my neck of the woods. Yesterday on my walk I literally stopped and smelled the roses: heavenly!

I wanted to let you know that the new Calendar Wallpaper will be coming your way tomorrow, and on Friday I will be publishing a new post, which will be first announced in the newsletter coming your way on the same day. 

So you might want to keep an eye on your inbox, and if you have not yet subscribed and would like to, you can easily do so at the link in profile, or you can comment SUBSCRIBE and I will message you the link directly.

Blessings and love,
Monica

    Good Morning!

This exquisite Classic English kitchen in Southeast London caught my eye as it popped into my inbox a few days ago. 

I have not shared any home design inspiration for some time, for all the same reasons why I had not posted or sent out newsletters for sometime. But make no mistake: my love for interior design and architecture has not dulled one iota. Actually, it is even stronger.

Take a look on the blog (link in profile under Latest Post) for images, story and description of this moody-done-right kitchen.

Wishing you an easy rest of the week!
xoxo
Monica
