This is a photo of me and my Corgi, Darby, sharing a beer 14 years ago today. Darby wasn't happy as she felt that I was hogging the beer.

Jill and I took Teddi to the dog park this morning. She really seems to enjoy running around and exploring her environment. Whippets love to run. She is like a mini greyhound.

Today, I completed my 62nd trip around the sun. Sharing space with this little puppy is a wonderful way to spend my birthday.

Teddi is trying to perfect her look as a baby kangaroo. Yeah, I know it's also called a Joey.

I saw one of these new Tesla vehicles today. They are more ugly in person than in the photos.

Here's a Teddi update for anyone interested: Teddi seems to believe that Jill and I are her personal play toys. And I guess we are in the canine world she resides. BTW, her foster family did a great job with crate training. Not so much with feeding her human food. But, it is what it is. 😀

Teddi Update: After spending most of the night under the covers of our bed, we are looking forward to a chill day. Hopefully, we can take a nice walk sometime this afternoon. But before then, Teddi decided to take a nap buried in some pillows.

Today was adoption day for Teddi. We are excited to have him home with us. And from the looks of it, Teddi seems to enjoy hanging with me.

Meet the newest member of our family. Her name is Teddy, in honor of the movie Ted. Teddy is a Whippet mix and is very chill. We couldn't be more excited about her arrival.

Sounds stressful. It's unfortunate that life gets in the way of our Bluesky experience. 😀 I was in NYC on business last week and had a blast. It's been ages since I've traveled on business. I also got to spend the day with my grandson.

Last photo. Three generations of NY Giants fans. My theory is that if you take enough photos, one is likely to be decent.

The best part of growing old is spending time with my grandson, Cameron. Life is good. As an FYI, take notice of the NY Giants sweatshirt. I happen to be wearing mine, as well. I see a group photo in my future with 3 generations of Friedman's sporting NY Giants attire.

Maybe some media property will hire a corgi wearing librarian style eyeglasses to report on the trial. Corgis can smell BS better than most people.

This is how I intend to spend most of my afternoon. Of course, I will be watching the final round of The Masters, as well.
