Booming Banter

Well the niece and I went with Mummy to the vets and got all our shots and checks and meds for the year.

We were both good and well behaved. Well pretty much well behaved as you can be when needles are poked into you and things shoved up your nose.

The vet discovered I had an infection in one of my ears. So I got drops for that.

When we got home Ma had to rush to the tearoom so she left me in charge.

The niece slept all afternoon as she was still zonked. Come to thinking it she is still sleeping!!

I did a bit of exploring in the yard but when my Bro came home he discovered I’d gone lame.

My hoomans don’t know if I’ve twisted something or stepped on something or if it’s my shots in the butt that have done this so we they are monitoring me.

In the meantime I trust that the ear drops do the trick and I’m restored to normal soon.

Precious Peeps it’s PITS here to whistle you into a wonderful weekend.

I am feeling very discombobulated this morning. I have not swallowed the dictionary but rather have been drugged by my Dad!

See today is the day when Granny has to take me and the stinking Grey Gizz for our annual physicals and vaccines and as I get very anxious and nervous on such occasions I have to be prepared for the process.

In addition to feeling that my brain and body are unconnected it’s also pouring outside.

As you know I will not walk in the rain.

Fortunately Granny had the sense to collect our poo yesterday for that part of our check up.

Like the visit to the docs the rain will pass. I’ll be sleeping most of the day so it won’t bother me.

Why don’t you do that too if you can and then you’ll be all set for fun tomorrow when the sun comes out again.

I love you all except the vet.

It is twenty nine years ago today that my Grandpa Barr went to heaven. My Dad was very fond of him as he was a real good man.

In fact my Dad was holding Grandpa’s hand when he passed.

Ma and me were speculating just now that he and Dad are probably having a great big party to celebrate being together again.

At this party there most likely is a Bavarian Tavern atmosphere. My Dad always took Grandpa there when he came to visit in Switzerland.

He loved to eat their “Pied de Porc” because my Granny refused to have them in her house.

He’d wash this down with copious quantities of good German beer.

He was by all accounts a very lovely man very down to earth and also extremely smart and very funny. He couldn’t stand people who had airs and graces about them and would say when they were out of earshot that “that one swallowed the dictionary”

My Mum says she can’t help but smile when she thinks of him and is happy he and my Dad are able to have such good times together again.

Precious Peeps it’s PITS here to heave you over the humpty.

Since my Grandpa went to heaven I have had to adjust my life.

To remain close to him I have taken to curling up on one of his cushions each evening.

He always had it at his back in his chair so now its scent gives me great comfort.

Now it’s mine.

No one else is allowed to have it.

It’s so snuggly.

Makes me feel so peaceful.

Hope you have a happy place like this too.

I am being subjected to yet another Netflix series.

This one is called MONSTER! It’s not about a Pitty.

It’s about this gal called Lizzy Borden who allegedly did the dirty on her parents.

We’ve only watched two of the six episodes so far so the pace is not great or we’d be on at least number four.

What I can tell you definitely is that her step mother was a nasty piece of work.

I guess I know what I’m doing after dinner tonight.

The week ahead promises to be gruesome.

This is the first time in a long time that Ma doesn’t have to do anything.

She’ll probably still go to the bank and do some baking and some cleaning and of course make the dinner but she doesn’t have to.

Even if she wanted to she doesn’t have to take us trotting but I know she will because she’ll feel better if she does.

This is making her feel good so I’m encouraging her to have some time out.

What do you have to do today?

Blessing#2299-Haves and Have Nots

We have received so many cards and donations and gifts in memory of our Dad. It’s very touching. We can’t thank you enough.

The most recent came from Miss Kathy the director of Ministries with Children, Youth and Families at our church. She also has a great big dog so she ministers to canines too!

She made us a beautiful picture of Dad meeting Jesus.

We are going to put it just above the thermostat in our living room as that’s a place where it will be always visible.

We will be reminded when we adjust the thermostat that Dad is in the sunshine with no need for AC or heating.

We have it on good authority that he had his best suit and tie on the day he arrived but now is happily wearing his shorts and T-shirt.

Today is our cousin Aditya’s birthday and we know it’s going to be the very best ever because it’s his first as a Daddy.

In Tamil the word for Daddy is APPA so he is APPA ADITYA which is kinda cute.

Our bitty baby has been named and he has such a sweet one. It is Shivam.

This means auspicious, pure and blessed.

Pretty neat don’t you think.

We hope Shivam is being a good baby today and helping his APPA have fun and maybe a little nap too after lunch.

Blessing#2897-Happy Days

Precious Peeps it’s PITS here to whistle you into a wonderful weekend.

I’m in an incredibly good mood as the Grumpy Gizzard is in the dog house and I’m Granny’s one and only love bug.

I fought hard for that stinking chipmunk but now I’m glad he got it because it got him into deep toro poopoo!

It’s great when Granny ignores him and smiles at me and gives me bits of her nachos.

I trust this trend continues like the sunshine and I get to soak it up some more.

Hope you have a weekend like mine where you know you’re the greatest and of course the most beautiful too.

I love you almost as much as Granny but not nearly as much as myself.
