  5. So sweet and bright-eyed, (s)he really likes the attention! Good bribe for me at least :). And take your time, am rereading books so can wait. Besides, it is weekend soon, so have fun (and no work, preferably).

    • And re-discovering things like… how “gods” and the dilemma with “worshipers” has interesting parallels with “celebrities and fans” in our day.

      (I foresee a movie deal in you guys’ future, IA ????)

  6. I first read “as a bride” and was asking myself why ????‍♀️. Reading again made much more sense. Great bribe, she’s very cute.

  9. Nice Hoodie, Quincy! It’s soooo your color!

    Do you know that you have thousands of people who love you?

    Take time to enjoy a little weekend chillin’ you guys.

  10. He is adorable! He looks like he’s channeling E.T. 🙂

    As always excited for more Ryder!

  13. The pandemic has made every week the wookie week of the month. Nice to know that the ewoks are fighting for recognition as well.

  14. Quincy is ADORABLE, despite the slightly worried look on his face! Looking forward to getting Ryder on Monday, have a great weekend 🙂

  19. Obi wan quincobi. “These are not the socks you’re looking for….”

    So did you keep the bombas?

  21. Aww Quincy is so cute!! I love German Shepards! He looks so happy in his towel ????!

    He looks so much better than the first pictures of when y’all got him, he is loving the spoiled life now!

  22. When I looked at the cropped picture on the blog home page I thought he had a big carrot in his mouth and I couldn’t figure out why, unless you were trying for a weird Groucho impression (that’s before my time, but I’ve seen the pictures).

  23. Aww! How adorable! And for some reason, I thought, “Grandma, what big eyes you have!” Can we find Quincy a bonnet to wear temporarily? ????

  24. I’m not sure if you want it mentioned, but this blog post doesn’t have the “Continue Reading” button on it, from the blog main page. It may just be my phone (I’m using an Android phone on Internet Explorer). It looked like a very short post. I was able to click the title or scroll up from the comments, so it isn’t a big deal, but I thought you’d like to know. Maybe? ????????‍♀️

    I hope this was ok to post as a comment since it’s a technical thing and not a correction on a story post. I really hope I didn’t make you mad or sad. I debated about saying anything or not. It may be just my phone too.

    • Lol. I got traumatized by their last “comment policy” post too (well, maybe you’re not exactly traumatized but I definitely was as they used my comment to make an example — name and all!) But I think I understand why they did what they did. Also, I messed up big time (I guess I was over-excited)

      In answer to your question, I don’t think you’re wrong. The policy is about the content/posts themselves.

      And I don’t think your comment is being critical so it should be safe — not that they even discourage that, from what I understand

      • Truthfully, I debated waaay too long, but if there was a delete button, I would have clicked it right after I clicked Post. (Obviously, I should have debated a bit longer) ????‍♀️????

  27. Quincy is adorable and is channeling his/her (I forgot if Quincy is a he or a she) inner Jedi and mind control. Those eyes could be conveying “I did not eat your socks” or “I did not tear up the toilet paper in the bathroom” or “I did not go on the kitchen floor”. 🙂

    As to Ryder…take your time with it. When it gets to us, it gets to us. Please don’t stress over it.

  28. Yes, yes. Quincy is definitely an acceptable substitute. 🙂 So cute! Working that towel like a champ.

    I’ve been enjoying Ryder so so much, btw. Thank you both!

    P.S. What the heck has Ascanio done to earn the children’s dislike? Inquiring minds want to know! (Hope it’s nothing truly assholish. I do really want to like him.)

    • At a guess? Ascanio was very good at getting his own way as a youngster so it is probably Very difficult to fool him. He knows all the tricks!

    • Ascanio managed to survive to grow up only because Aunt B stuck out her neck for him repeatedly and Kate took him under her wing to try to keep him out of trouble. Looking back he probably sees that and knows how close he came to not only messing up his own life but those of the people around him.
      There is no stricter leader then a reformed wild child. Especially before they learn how to balance the firm hand with a long lead.

  31. Such a sweetheart! Love the orange towel. I am go grateful to you guys for writing this. Always the highlight of my week to see a new chapter.

  32. Quincy is so adorable!!! As another character once said, “I’m all out of evens!”

    He’s a Baby Yoda of a different color.

  34. Happily bribed- have a good weekend and hope you find time to relax as well

    I’m going to create havoc in the garden- hopefully beauty in the end but mayhem in the meantime as I clear a seimi-circular bed with some pruning shears and a saw!

  39. Shouldn’t Quincy be on one of ur book covers. Oooooo, I just wanna hug him, squeeze him, and give him big kiss.

    Pls excuse me. I’m going thru pet withdrawal. Lost my 20-year-old Himalayan about 9 months ago.

  42. I hope his worms are gone and Artha accepted him! he looks like the cutest little Jawa ????.

  43. Quincy in the towel is just so full of squee. The offering is highly acceptable and appreciated lol, tho of course not necessary. But appreciated none the less. Have a lovely weekend!

  44. Cute! Impressively well behaved too. Hard to say no to puppy eyes. Thx for thinking of us!

  45. Quincy is cute. Our doggie likes to be wrapped up too. All blankets in the house are hers. And the big kids learned that if they leave their towels on the floor, she will promptly occupy it, leaving it covered in fur.

  48. My first thought on seeing him in an orange towel hoodie was “who killed Kenny?” followed by “kommissar Rex undercover” (Austrian TV show about police dog).
