Beau procreate Selfies

 

I put my photo from 2022 in Chatgpt and asked AI to make Beau into a color book page sitting on a Florida Beach.

Next I colored him in procreate

and then, and then, Well you know the rest of the story

I am guilty of spidercide! by RAKE!

while following Beau around to pick up poop, he tries to find spots I have a hard time reaching. He pooped in plain view, until with Bag in hand, I bent to reach out and spied with my little eye, 

and orb weaving spiders in a HUGE all points of the earth web, the only way to reach the poop was through that web. I waved the rake and accidentally hit the spider. Usually I just knock down the web. I did apologize and admit I did it.

Their webs cling all over the body and I feel things crawling on me until I shower.

Sorry David G.

PS Beau is able to walk right under them and never disturb them, I stepped out on the front porch a few days later and the were THREE webs, I could not get to the mail box. I was careful to only take down one side of the web and grab the mail and run.

we will be here off and on, probably more off than on. 

Aftermath! Did you miss me?

 

The day after I was sick for two days, (Mama calls it Aftermath,) we were all exhausted. 

My  Mama/Photographer, AKA Daddy/Canine Caregiver, went to bed for 2 hours and when she came out from her nap, she found us like this.

She can't take photos in the dark and I am always sick on cold nights. She follows me step by step. 

This is her flannel gown/socks/sweater follow Beau in the dark when sick outfit.

Can you believe she took the trash bin to the curb in this outfit? 

Yep! She did.

We still have no grass, I need grass when I am sick, I wander, pace and hunt grass, a bite here, a bite there. We go inside and Mama holds me and hugs me and talks to me and then we go back and wander the yard. She carries her cell phone around her neck in case she falls down and we need to call 911

These photos were taken a few weeks ago, you will have to image the DARK part.

No grass here, I am moving on,

You can see the grass up by the hose is green. 

Sandwich Selfie of Beau

 

I was  sick, 2 nights in a row.. I threw up twice and paced 4 hours from, 9 pm to 1:30 am Tuesday and Wednesday had diarrhea with poo and rivulets of blood in it from 3:15 am to 9 am. I get really sick and Mama spends hours with me, holding, petting, hugging and following around the yard in the dark with 38 degrees. She wraps up like a mummy. It was so cold my ears were cold, and she wrapped my head in a baby blanket. 

Wed. Morning daddy fell, walking back to bed from breakfast with walker. PT came that day and cleared him, nothing broken. 

Mama went to her doctor Monday for 30 day check up on her new wonder drug, Lexapro and was changed from Lexapro to Zoloft because of one side effect. its been CRAZY-er because Mama took one Zoloft and fell back to where she was before all this started. She could not sleep, was wired, like on steroids, anxious, she yelled at daddy and me,  she was angry. She did not take a 2nd pill.

She called the doctor next day and said she stopped the Zoloft, and the doc sent a new prescription of the first drug.

Today at lunch, Mama said to Daddy from the kitchen where she was serving up his spaghetti, what do you want to drink, 7-UP or Gator-aid?

He did not answer. Just stared at the news he was watching.

Mama said in a LOUD VOICE

7-UP     OR   GATOR-AID?

Daddy said, Did you take that new pill? Your  yelling at me.

Mama said, there are things pills can't fix, answer me when I ask you a question.

Are you picking up what I am putting down?

We are Fine, we missed you

 I am sandwiched between my daddy

And My Mama, she has me as her screen saver on her laptop, and I am laying between her and Daddy. This is my happy place, when both are sitting beside me, I can sleep and know if anyone leaves the room, like say a trip to the kitchen, 

Selfie Sunday (Beauspeak)

 

Mama said she needed 2006 current photos of me. Here they are. Sorry, I am so sleepy, butt Mama's week off, made all of us sleep more, we slept all night, we took naps in the day, Mama never raised her voice, daddy did not either, we laughed and talked because Daddy's new hearing aids allows him to HEAR and played and Mama did not cry when she filed the taxes.

As you can see, I am calm as calm can be, the doctor has adjusted my meds, started a new one, with others and so far so good..

I did manage to move to the floor

and lick my paw. Daddy watched football, both pawretnz watched DVR Skating for USA finals, and rooted for the USA skate team at the Olympics.

Mama finished her TO DO list, but says if she goes missing, the yard is in bad need of some TLC.

One last thing, she said she is not happy with the change in her when she looks in the mirror and in a prior Post said she has  not taken current photos in almost 2 years, the last year made her Show Her Age. Proof below.

Mama walk-in  me, Feb 2022 and Mama walk-in me Feb 2026

Same jacket, same time of day, same street, same cell phone

She took another one in the kitchen, its even worse. Please feel free to count the wrinkles, and her hair is like a million hairs thinner than 2005, not shown here.

We both say Thanks for being our friends.

BeauSpeak, We are taking a break. Comments Off

 

these are moodling that have are from Jan 15, sitting in drafts 

I am trying to wake up to say we are all fine, nothing is wrong, same old normal stuff. Mama is old and tired and has a lot of things that she can't get done because she rather be on the computer than do taxes, house/yard work. She said its OK to say she lets the work wait and spends too much time computing.

This is just so you know we are all good...Back soon.

Paws Together for Beau AGAIN

 

Once again my sweet Boy Beau is sick, with the same thing he has had since Dec 30, 2024, this is the 3rd ER visit, with vomiting and bloody diarrhea. 

This time was not a holiday or a weekend, but Monday evening and his vet does surgeries on Tuesday and no patient visits.

He was sick from 3:30 Monday until I took him to ER at 6:30 AM.

I woke up both nights with side effects of tinnitus in my ears that sounded like screaming hearing aids, in fact I got up to see if it was Bob's new aids.

Back to my doctor, the pills did seem to calm me, but with two side effects, might not be able to take them.

We are all ok, Beau is conked out all morning from two injections, one for nausea and one for diarhea that last 24 hours.

He is good now... Hope to be back soon.

While Beau was getting IV's for dehydration and shots and exam, I documented

the fact that since we were there in 2024, we are proud to say we did a sizeable portion of their remodel. It Looks Beautiful.

The coffee bar is for you Ginny.. and I wanted a cup but due to Side Effects on IBS could not have one. You might think I was the only one there,

Why yes, I was, the place was empty, they close at 8 am, two employees and Me and Beau and I realized after I got home, I was in a glass building taking photos when anyone could have walked in off the street and shot, stabbed, kidnapped me with no problem........😁😁😁 the place is all glass windows and large doors that open when you walk up

Grass from the hurricane (BeauSpeak)

 

HurricaneMilton grew Bahia grass every where in 2024. 

Above is our side yard in August 2025 when blessed rain came every day for a week. The rain never returned and still has not. 

All photos of me were taken on January 5, 2026. we are now half way through January. I heard Mama says that to Daddy and a Wow

Now Mama waters this patch, on the other side of the yard and its growing

And she has grass in pots, and we are grateful for grass in pots

and when she waters the pots, it makes the grass and weeds grow in daddy's junk yard pile. 

I have 3 places with grass. and a hope for more. Mama is praying to find a handyman/woman she can pay to do things she can't do 

to be continued

we are joining Brian's Home for Thankful Friday because we are thankful for the grass we have and I am thankful for My Mama growing grass and she is thankful we had no hurricane in 2025, and Mama and daddy are thankful for ME being here with them for 5 years and 3 months. My biggest thankful is my Furever home with Mama and Daddy. I was sick again last night, its been 2 weeks since the last episode.

Grazing With Beau (BeauSpeak)

 

On January 5, 2026, Mama said, Beau, don't get upset. We need some Current Photos of you to post on the blog. This is a new year, which means we need New Pictures.

I was so busy eating the grass my Mama grew just for me, I did not even know she was taking photos.

this small patch of grass is where my Mama throws her dishpan water to grow grass for when my tummy needs grass. In Florida, grass grows year round, but it needs lots of water. Mama is growing grass in 3 parts of the yard, Just For My Consumption.

You can see in the last photo that everything is dirt except where she throws the dishwater, 3 times a day..  this is not my favorite grass, but I eat it anyway.
