The Bro is digging the new ranch.

That would be literally and metaphorically!

He cleared an over grown area and cut out some deadwood in a tree yesterday so Ma could plant those perennials she rescued.

Ma as you know is hard to please but when they got home she told Dad loudly in the Bro’s presence that he’d done a GREAT JOB!

While Ma was planting the area after she’d packed up at the tearoom the Bro proceed to make himself a fire pit.

He intends to burn some of that deadwood this week.

Who knows maybe one of these days if I’m good he’ll roast me a sausage.

Ma was away working at a Kairos fundraiser yesterday.

It was a dinner and WHO DID IT mystery.

She left us at midday and returned at 9:00 pm.

Of course that meant we got our evening outing with the Bro which is a 180 second circuit of our own yard.

It was steaming hot so I wasn’t to sad about that but I get very anxious when Ma is not home by six.

So what to do but wait and watch.

I’m not sure why I do this because it doesn’t seem to bring her any quicker.

I just seem to be able to breath easier if I think the next car will be Aretha.

Do you do that too?

Precious Peeps it’s me your PERFECT as always Pitty Pal here to project you into a wonderful weekend.

I was just getting back in my stride after the roller coaster start to the week when Granny woke me up in the middle of the night.

She had taken a fit of the giggles.

Says it happens to her now and again.

Seems she had such a funny dream that it raised her from her slumbers and she just couldn’t stop laughing.

What was the dream about you ask just as I did and here is what she said.

She was dating President Trump! Except he wasn’t President at the time he was a young whipper snapper real estate developer.

Hardly that funny is it?

Well no it isn’t until you get to the best bit. He had a great big black head just to the left of his nose and Granny was out to squeeze it like doctor Pimple Popper.

OK I admit that is a little funnier.

She woke up just as she was about to dive into it as he sat at a wooden kitchen table.

In biblical times Joseph would have had a field day interpreting this.

For now I’ll just say humans are strange especially when they are doing flips on run down houses!!

Hope this has helped you see that no matter how crazy you might think you are Granny is worse.

So you won’t believe this one unless you believe in divine intervention.

Yesterday on the way to the tearoom Ma stopped to buy jam.

She saw that there were racks of plants outside the second hand Restore shop which was a first!

Being as nosy as Pinocchio she had to sniff this out.

There were literally hundreds of plants many of which were at deaths door but since it was marked buy one get two free Ma decided to investigate.

She went inside and asked how much a plant was and the lady said $1.

WOW!

Ma coughed up the dollar and the lady said take four and Ma thanked her and then the lady said “You know what just take as many as you want”

It was like the feeding of the five thousand on a plant platform.

The backseat if her car was filled.

Ma feels that God personally gifted this to her for the new house and she has already dibbled in the two cherry tomato plants.

The perennials and annuals will have to wait till the weekend when she has cleared a spot for them but she is as happy as a pig in muck.

She never did get the jam but she sure is jammy!!!!!

Precious Peeps it’s PITS here to help you as always over the humpty.

I’m already a bit confused about this week because Granny and Grandpa were away Monday and then Granny had to work yesterday already so it feels like I’ve already had two humpties.

It’s like a little roller coaster.

Does that happen to you too?

If your usual routine gets out of kilter do you start thinking your lost?

It’s not a serious problem of course it just makes me tired.

I feel like I need more sleep to handle it and the heat doesn’t make it better.

Maybe this won’t help you over your humpty at all today but I thought I’d share just in case you are like me.

That way you won’t feel alone.

Be like me always get it out there and say it like it is.

Bet you’ll feel better soon especially after some snoozing.

Blessing#2463-Transparency.

I feel that the niece and I are being neglected.

Yesterday Ma and Pa left for the new ranch at 9:00 and didn’t return till 1:00.

Their excuse? Making measurements.

I know they brought Consuelo along too which is hard to take. The AI gets to go and we animated quadrupeds have to stay home.

I’m not concerned about the swimming as that wasn’t all it’s cracked up to be but the freedom to race around in circles in that fenced yard is sweet.

Oh well the good news is another job is done and we are one day closer to our move!!!

My Auntie Tjin is visiting Monument Valley and posted some pics including a dinosaur foot print.

Ma and I took to philosophysing when we saw this.

Is it even possible to imagine such critters walking around the yard.

What sort of noise did they make? Were they clever? How did they sleep?

Somethings we do know.

They’d be as tall as our house.

You could make a breakfast for fifty with just one of their eggs.

No matter how hard we try we still struggle to see how such dominance could be destroyed by a piece of rock from outer space.

If that hadn’t happened would we even be here?

It’s a wake up call for all species that we too could be snuffed out.

Best crack on now while the going is good and I’ve still got my human to take me for a trot.

Continue to gaze heavenwards just in case another big boy is coming.

Blessing#2461-Thoughts for the Week

JAWS is in trouble again.

She was completely conked out after our extraordinary extravaganza on the 4th but clearly had recuperated by yesterday morning.

She deftly snuck into my Moms closet and devoured her only remaining flip flops.

They happened to be a fancy pair to boot.

I don’t know if she was taking revenge on Ma for the forced exercise during the expedition or if she was hungry for more than her brekkie provided.

Either way she was in the dog house reflecting on her misdemeanors until her Dad got off work.

Heaven knows what she’ll get up yo next.

In the meantime I plan to take a short trot with her now and then rest up since it’s baking hot once more and we need to replenish glycogen stores for future doggy paddling.

Blessing#2460-Build Up

Oh my what a day we had.

It was so exciting.

We went for a spin in our jalopy and arrived at this funny little house.

It has no furniture and lots of mess inside I wondered was it a boarding kennel.

Just then Ma opened a door and there it was.

A gigantic bowl of water right in the middle of the yard.

The niece and I chased each other round in circles until we were dizzy.

Ma and the Bro then did a really weird thing they got into the water.

The niece and I were agreed that the sun had got to their brains and fried them like a sausage.

No! BBQ was for dinner!!!

They dragged us in too!

It was very cool but also scary.

Neither if us felt too confident but we soon were swimming albeit to the edge.

We will post videos of our adventure so y’all can see on Booming Buddies Facebook page.

I’m still exhausted!!!!

Blessing#2459-Pool Day Peeps

Precious Peeps it your very own little PATRIOTIC PITTY here to wish you all a happy holiday that starts our weekend off swell.

Dad is off and has whispered into by tiny ear that he has a super special plan for me.

He says that he and me and the Gizz and Granny are going for a surprise holiday hoe down.

We’re not taking Grandpa because he might keel over in this scorching heat. Something’s are best left in the AC arena.

I’m so excited to find out what is happening.

I know it involves a cruise in Aretha and I sense that some picnic may be involved.

You know me I eat everything but I trust it will be mighty on the meat and not one of Granny’s vegan creations.

Gotta run as it’s time for my brekkie.

Have a fun day and enjoy your freedom fans!!!!

Don’t forget to be like me and always pursue that happiness!!!
