May 2026
May 5, 2026 Tuesday - It’s Cinco de Mayo! I texted my sister and nephew’s wife to see if they wanted to get out for tacos. They both agreed, and as much as I wanted to get a margarita, I’ve been craving a cold beer for a while. For future reference, the Fuzzy’s in Burleson has Pacifico on tap. Unfortunately, their food is terribly salty.
May 4, 2026 Monday - This was one of Zak’s Christmas presents. He never played with it. Butter, on the other hand, chews on it all the time. She’s ripped the top of the hat off and pulled out a lot of the stuffing. It kinda reminds me of Joe Pesci in Home Alone after he gets the top of his head burned. This guy has also survived quite a bit of tug-of-war between Butter and Zak.
May 3, 2026 Sunday - Butter jingles when she walks now. She also has not had an accident four out of the last seven days. I’ve caught Pancake and her playing on the couch together rather than Butter just harassing her. She and Zak have started chasing each other and have been playing tug of war at least once a day for the last few days. She’s really starting to fit in.
May 2, 2026 Saturday - This morning, Butter woke us all up really early. I did feel better than I’ve felt in a long time, even though I still have a lot of congestion. After our morning walk, I decided to take the pups into town to get us some breakfast and finally get Butter her name tag. So I guess I’m keeping her. Shortly after we got back, I needed a nap.
May 1, 2026 Friday - My mailbox and the guy’s across the street are right next to each other. His box doesn’t have a door, and a while back a bird started building a nest in the back. Today when we stopped for our mail, I heard the loud peeps from babies coming from inside. I was hoping to get a photo of them, but I didn’t want to upset them too much.
