The view from the Family Bed is rarely a peaceful one. As is so often the case, Bachmann has made himself a nuisance in The Family Bed once again. Over the past weeks, since before Thanksgiving, he’s been causing all sorts of trouble for the other Companions and for me. His porky Continue Reading
Occasionally, I take a day away from The Family Bed to run errands, attend workshops & meetings, or maybe even grab a latte with my Spirit Guide. Even though I love my work, I sometimes just need a break, you know? I try not to take these ‘holidays’ very often: Many of my Companions Continue Reading
When I opened The Family Bed Education, Rehabilitation and Training Center, it was with the particular goal of providing a nurturing, enriching environment in which to instruct my Companions. Over the years, I have trained countless Companions – shaping them into upstanding, productive members of society. Many of them have gone on to Continue Reading
But first, a note from Georgie … You are all familiar with my most notorious Companion, Bachmann Beaver. Well, he’s been hounding me so much lately about telling his tales that I’ve finally relented and given him his own column on the blog. I didn’t proofread or edit his work so Continue Reading
Life in the Family Bed can be hectic. Sometimes, I like to kick back with a puzzle and relax. But with all those Companions – well, it’s a challenge. I like to think that I’m equitable with the love and nurturing care I offer my Companions and that I don’t Continue Reading

The Family Bed is required to be washed once a week, Continue Reading
On this visit to the Family Bed I’m introducing you to El Monterey, a rare Mexican moose. He prefers to be called Montey, though, so I humor him. Here we are, Montey and I, after one of our ‘sessions’. It’s important to rest and restore ourselves after such exertion. Montey Continue Reading
The Family Bed Community is home to many Companions. By far, the most demanding and loudest member is this porky-mouthed beaver Bachmann. He is my most-trusted confidante, although I honestly don’t know why — he’s completely self-possessed. I’ve found that I need to have more (and more intense) training sessions with Bachmann than Continue Reading
Yesterday was my birthday. I got some organic peanut butter biscuits that Mama Dog says I can only have one at a time, and “occasionally.” What a crock. They were a gift and I should be able to help myself whenever I want. I thought I would also be getting a new Continue Reading
Too often, I find myself completely caught up in my work. My Companions are so important to me and I tend to measure my own happiness and contentment by their happiness and contentment. Which is unfortunate because some of them are, quite honestly, never happy or content. (Bachmann) Anyway, when Continue Reading
