The bro is a kind hearted soul. After all he adopted a nutcase.

Her breed seem to be the sort who eat and sleep a lot and aren’t to fussy about keeping their quarters clean!

The bro and my nemesis have a lot in common.

Yesterday in the midst of her stress the engine light came on in Mums car on the way to work.

The bro said he’d take it for repair today.

That meant the Mother took his car.

Well you should have heard the pings on his phone when she was no sooner out of the house.

At every stop light she sent another message.

Ma “You need to get this car serviced it’s way overdue”

Bro “Unlike your Merc there are no warning light on in my trusty Honda”

Ma- “Why do you never fix the clock”

Bro-“I’d only have to change it again in spring”

Ma-“The windshield wipers on the right is broken“

Bro-“I sit on the left to drive”

Ma- “This car is a disgrace. What is all this red gunk on the front and back seats? Did you murder someone”

Bro “No just think about it sometimes”

Ma”This car smells of pizza”

Bro “Tell me about it how’d you like to do delivery?”

Ma”Why is there a lavender candle in the back seat”

Bro” To help me do what you need to do. CHILL!”

Ma is just home. She had a crazy busy day. Non stop customers and her official ribbon cutting too.

She is in need of wine

I gave her my biggest smile

Now since there is no chance of a walk I’m wrestling the niece.

This time change business gets you all upset.

Just when you get used to seeing the stars before dawn they vanish and you see other twinklers in different places in the evening.

Very confusing these heavenly bodies.

It wrecks your sleep too.

The wailer is crying earlier again so I get less peaceful me time with Mom in the morning.

Worse still we get no walks in the evening as it’s dark when Ma gets home.

After feeding time the hoover collapses and falls asleep in my place on the sofa before the nightly news is finished.

I must nap to recover and will be signing the petition to ban daylight savings.

Nala here your favorite Pitty Pups!

I am happy to report that I have matured to the point that Granny has promoted me to sous-chef!

I was assisting my uncle Scooby in the kitchen during the bake off this morning.

We worked on floor cleaning and quality control of new inventions.

Now this may already exist somewhere in the universe but it is new to our repertoire.

We invented the cocktail scone.

These are teeny weeny one bite versions of the afternoon tea classic.

Ideal for parties they will be split and topped with strawberry jam and cream at upcoming ribbon cutting and Victorian Christmas events!

We also made starry shortbreads that are so small I can swallow them whole.

Happily some got scorched so we had to eliminate them from the production. I inhaled quite a few!

They are hard as nails perfect for sharpening teeth for future demolition work.

We had a weigh in this morning for the first time in ages.

Dad’s suspicion that I am being starved to death were validated.

I’ve lost five pounds crashing from 41 to 36.

The mega mouth has risen to 31.

Last night she spilled her dinner again. It went under the kitchen chairs. A lot of dust bunnies were killed in her endeavors to vacuum it all up.

I will not report on the mother who needs to hold us on the scale.

Suffice to say she is moving in the same direction as the niece at even greater speed.

She needs to give up on eating leftover buns from her cream teas or she will need a new wardrobe especially now that the Christmas Season has officially kicked off.

Thats a good thing about us canines our clothes are super stretchy.

When Ma takes me out around six thirty so I can off load the fluid accumulated overnight it is pitch black.

The stars are fab.

We admire the plough and the little bear.

Of course the most brilliant as you’d expect is the dog star.

Shines bright as a diamond just me.

Tonight the clocks fall back which means the demon will no longer sleep as late.

She’s definitely from another galaxy. We are poles apart. I’d give anything to have her transported back where she belongs!

Blessing #1147– Time Travel

I can be nice as pie when there is a good reward at stake (that could also read steak!).

It’s pretty tough to be tender with the tike but when you overhear the Ma telling the Pa that Aldi have Advent Calendars for dogs on sale it is strategically smart.

I’ll be giving my cheesiest grin to all even though it may look more like a snarl to some!

Wonder what’s inside those little boxes?

Blessing #1146-Incentives

Today is Diwali when Hindu tradition has it that a dreadful demon was expunged from the face of the universe.

I tried with little avail to take out the evil that surrounds me a few times already this morning.

She gets in my face all the time and copies my ever move. Even barks at potential intruders who vire close to our property line.

I couldn’t be more sick of her if she was a cat.

Fortunately no one is on her side today not even the bro.

While he slept overnight she chewed up part of his lego star wars pieces that he had made over the years and that take pride of place in his room.

Made me gloat with gladness that did. It will teach him for bringing her into my world.

Blessing #1145– Retribution

It’s official Dad is a dinosaur. He is older than most trees.

For his birthday he got to go for some blood letting.

What a treat on such a beautiful day.

It was GREAT because I got to ride in the car!

The bigearred longtailed demon was left home eating kibble.

On the way back we stopped and got gigantic donuts.

My Dad is definitely my absolute favorite person. He shared everything with me except the chocolate frosting.

The nememsis niece was asleep so wasn’t present to pester us.

We kept her and the bro a morsel since we are renowned for our generosity!

Another old photo came out of the woodwork yesterday.

The current minister at the Parish Church Mom goes to in Ireland found a real ancient piece of history.

It dates from 1974 when Ma was confirmed.

Can you spot her?

I think its so funny.

I have it on good authority that it was a great day even though she looks serious.

A huge number of buns were eaten at this really special place.

Wonder if I could have a ceremony too to demonstrate my faith.

There’d be snacks for sure
