MaggieMoose: Velcro Girl

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

Close friends contribute to our personal growth. They also contribute to our personal pleasure, making the music sound sweeter.... the laughter ring louder because they are there.
Judith Viorst 

  This morning I have a Velcro girl called Maggie. She's been at my side since we got up. Years ago when my family went to a dude ranch there was a young boy who took a fancy to one of my girls. We affectionately called him 'Velcro boy' because wherever my daughter went there he was. The term has been updated for Maggie-Velcro girl. Wherever I go, there she is. My life is sweeter because of it. Thanks Maggie. Hugs & Licks! WOOF WOOF

MaggieMoose: Favorite Formula

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

 "Dogs are my favorite people."

Richard Dean Anderson

  While I type on my laptop I hear the hard crunch, crunch, crunch beneath my chair. It's only when I let Maggie outside that I notice her collection of antler chews on the floor. I'm Maggie's favorite and Maggie's my favorite. A perfect way to spend an overcast Sunday morning. Two favorites equals us squared.

MaggieMoose: Twig In The Dark

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

"What you do today can improve all your tomorrows."

Ralph Marston

  It's the Monday morning Maggie show. OMD! (Oh my dog.) I turned the corner and there's Maggie chillin' in the dark with a little, fragile twig hanging out of her mouth. I crack up. There's no words for how funny I find her twig madness, but her happiness is my happiness. It's twig season. Maggie's jaws of steel tenderly cradled her twig with love. It continues to astound me. What a great way to start a Monday morning. It's still dark outside yet Maggie knows how to light up the room with her subtle humor. Thanks for the twig in the dark Maggie! I can't wait for tomorrow's surprise. chuckle chuckle

MaggieMoose: Family Trick or Treats?

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

 "Many of my cartoons are not a belly laugh. I go for nostalgia, the lump in the throat, the tear in the eye, the tug in the heart."

Bill Keane

  Last year Maggie was a beautiful bumble bee for Halloween. She took it to the extremes by making sure she had her tennis ball in her mouth as she buzzed around. This year she's a MaggieFish in her full Nemo-ish costume. 

I flash back to her human siblings and all the costumes they had for Halloween; beauty queens, witches, and many others. Looking at Maggie's photos in her Halloween costumes I get the same tug in my heart from a wonderful feeling called nostalgia. Maggie feels that same tug and lump when her human siblings visit her. She remembers the family memories they shared. And recalls the treats she recieved and the tricks she gave. Bounce, bounce tennis ball... WOOF WOOF

MaggieMoose: Warm & Fuzzy Thoughts

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

Elizabeth Edwards

MaggieMoose: Kiss Me Mug

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

MaggieMoose: Monday's Unlocked Blessings

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

"When you are grateful - when you can see what you have - you unlock blessings to flow in your life."

Suze Orman

  Some moments when I look at Maggie looking at me with her soulful eyes I stop & freeze in that moment. I feel an overwhelming amount of gratitude for the sweet soul sitting before me. I think to myself I AM SO BLESSED to have Maggie in my life. Maggie is the kid every parent wants; no problems, always happy, never have to worry about her, and all she does is freely share her bounty of love. I am grateful for my unlocked blessings of MaggieMoose sitting before me as her eyes penetrate my soul with bliss. Happy #MooseMonday Maggie!
