  • akemashita omedetou gozaimasu! 🇯🇵 That means Happy New Year in Japanese! 👘🍵🎇 The Japanese believe that taking unresolved baggage into a new year is unlucky, so each New Year they practice oosouji – literally, the Big Cleanup. This is not just tidying up, but a ritual, an act of moving meditation. A clean home anytime will give you satisfaction, but if you sort your stuff with oosouji, the bad luck of the past year’s problems won’t follow you. If there ever was a time to cast off the old and welcome in the new, it's now. Credit: Ten Thousand Waves 🌊 @tenthousandwavesjapaneseresort (we saw this in an email from then this morning and loved it so much, we had to share).

  • Our Top Nine for 2020. My #concernedbabushka photo ranked #1❤️ Remember when us furry babushkas were all joining together to encourage the hoomans to stay home and stay safe. 🙏It’s been a crazy year. For a while there we were all using #quarantine and #stayhome.  Now things are even worse but I guess we are sort of adapting. Let’s all hope things return to normal in 2021. Mom was talking about all the vaccines she has received so she could travel to different places over the years... 🌍 she had sort of forgotten about them, but she said there have been a lot. Anyway, we just really hope we can all get back to seeing each other face to face without masks, eating out, traveling, having our pawrents go into the vets with us when we need to go.. and Mom REALLY wants Dad to go back to working in the office!! 🤣😂🤣Can anyone relate? And of course at the top of the list, no more fear when we hear a cough and no more people dying far before their time. 🙏🙏🙏

  • Hello my fur friends!! Like so many of you, I had to have my bath to get ready for Santa’s arrival. 🎄🛁🎅I can’t say I loved the process, but it wasn’t too bad. I was actually quite good and held still while Mom brushed me. But then it just got ridiculous and she was going crazy with the brush on my hind legs. Seriously!! Like how much hair does she need to get out? First it was the Les Pooches slicker, then the Big K slicker, then the comb, then finishing with the Mason Pearson brush. We took breaks, but I didn’t think it would ever end!  But here I am, all groomed 💇‍♀️ and ready for Santa’s visit!!! I sure hope he thinks I look beautiful!! 🎅🎄❤️🎅🎄❤️
