Clover knocks over Cheerio's (full) food dish and then the dog reaps the rewards. Clover and Obi in cahoots! I tried double-sided tape. Time to screw the dish down onto something that I can clamp onto the table and put an end to this once and for all! Clover couldn't be reached for comment. Birds.

Semi-annual PSA: If kids in your life come down with head lice, forget the chemicals and shampoos that may not work. It takes some time but section the hair, fry the little suckers with a hair dryer, and comb them out. One and done!

Today is the greatest day of my life and some of you will understand why. I had to dig a hole in the snow so I could open the gate into the duck pen. Today one of the ducks "fell" in (she's unharmed). As I herded her out, I got to say, "Duckie go down the hole." 🥲 Dreams do come true.

On today's episode of Brigid's Maine life, I used snowshoes to traverse my back yard to do water. By the time I'd finished draining the hose, duck, duck, goose. That's right, all three of them had splashed 1/3 of the water out of the 30+ gallon bucket.

Bailey is the most insufferable character on any TV show ever. It's all tell about how great she is but she constantly shows what a brat she is. And I don't believe for one second that she could actually take down the guys the writers have her take down. Not sorry. Not even a little.

My husband said that Clover's social media fans who led her to believe she's a queen were lying to her, and that she needs a job (and social media influencer doesn't count). Please respect my family's privacy during this difficult time.

When my husband says, "this thing made me think of you!" it's rarely something I enjoy. This one I couldn't even be mad because it's not wrong. youtube.com/shorts/5Du0Z...
