I realized I've been posting mostly sleeping Phara lately, so today is a thrilling strawberry action moment.

Why yes, I AM cooking a 20 lbs turkey for two people and a dog. Turkey rocks 🤘😍

Phara is resting up so she has lots of energy for the big day.

Good night friends 🥰 💤

My husband is making a batch of chicken jerkey for Phara, who takes her inspection and taste testing duties VERY seriously.

Phara had her weekly PT session today, and as usual her flatulence was a source of amusement. Apparently while we were getting her laser treatment, one of the techs came into the lobby, smelled the air, and said "Did someone poop?" Another employee told her, "No, I think Phara was just out here." 🤣

New dog bed has arrived, I guess we're going to have to warm up to it 🤣

Phara had her weekly PT appointment yesterday where she had acupuncture, laser, and hydro therapy. She is absolutely konked out today, but will undoubtedly find some deep reserve of energy when I go into the kitchen 🤣

This dog just let out the longest fart I have ever heard in my entire life.

Phara's extremely terrifying Halloween tale:

This morning I was NOT GIVEN BREAKFAST and was instead taken to the vet where a VAMPIRE STOLE MY BLOOD. The end.

(She had to get a routine liver test and needed to fast before hand. She has since been fed).

Ooh that sucks, just rip the band-aid off already! Phara hopes you get to relax soon

My mom's best friend (who has since passed) was a talented quilter. I inherited several of her works, including this lovely wall hanging which hangs above my kitchen table. My mom inherited a multitude of actual cats 🤣

This is Phara's favorite game, we call it "hunt". We remove her from the room, hide a toy that contains treats somewhere in the room, then she has to find it.

Fuck this mother fucking fucker 😡🤬😠

I cant even begin to describe how disruptive shutting down that stretch of 5 is. It takes fucking HOURS to go around.

She is cooking her little brain out here 🤣 🍳
