Katydid has to go back to the neurologist Feb 16 for a follow up blood test since her dose of phenobarbital is being increased. All sales from my Etsy shop will help cover that cost. Lots of catnip goodies for feline friends, and fun things for humans too!

I went to Minneapolis last week. What I saw was horrifying and inspiring in equal measure. Gift link to my latest column: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/o...

We have roofers working on the back patio today and Phara does not approve of the noise and disruption.

Phara started taking low dose prednisone today to help with her herniated discs and spinal compression problems. Here's hoping we see some benefits and dont have any significant side effects 🥰

For anyone concerned that Phara doesn't get enough chicken, one of my grocery receipt tracking apps just sent me my 2025 yearly summary:

I scheduled 3 estimates for next week to get my patio roof repaired. Please clap.

We are finally having a clear, sunny day and Phara has been taking full advantage of it!

My hot take is that no one should have to pay $990 for their cancer meds 😐
Mr Cuban,

I just wanted to quickly thank you. My husband has XXXX cancer, a rare gastrointestinal cancer. We are between insurance right now and when we went to pick it up we were informed it was $29,000. We were able to get it from CostPlus for $990. Thank you for saving my husband's life.

Phara got a beautiful hand-knit neck warmer from our friend, and several bags of treats from Santa Paws.

We hope all our wonderful friends are having a very happy holiday!! 🥰

I've never had a dog that enjoyed citrus before but Phara is definitely a fan.
