Precious Peeps it’s Pits.

I’m been in a diabolically bad state. We have had nothing but storms. Hopefully some respite for a few hours today.

Add to this meteorological misfortune the fact that my Granny dumped me yesterday and went to the RANCH for the whole day.

She met every tradesman under the sun all of whom are now working on quotes for her so she can spend more of my Milk Bone inheritance.

She was ecstatic yesterday morning when she open the daily Lenten devotional from our church.

She was convinced it was another God wink.

I suppose I must agree given that the carpenter thinks he can fix the fence and the pool guys says he is hopeful we can get by with deep cleaning and a new pump.

So pray this little Pitty will be plunging before the summer is over and that the BOOM BOOMS STOP!

You know it doesn’t take much to make Ma’s day.

So it was yesterday morning while perusing Facebook she hit on a reel from the Princess of Wales brother J. Middy and his canine companions.

OMG she screamed they have the same chairs as us.

Quickly quickly before the storm comes we have to get a photo of you two too.

So we posed and she snapped and you have to admit she is right.

Best bit?

She dumpster dived the entire set of patio furniture six years ago! It’s still going strong apart from the covers the niece snacked on.

Now everything’s taken on a whole new allure!

Precious Peeps Pits Perfect here to help you over the humpty.

I am feeling a little mid week moody myself.

See there are tornadoes coming our way again and you know what that does to my tiny ticker.

Add to this the possibility of up to fifteen inches of rain in the next days and I’m not feeling funny.

However, my dear reader do not despair.

If you are surrounded by loved ones like me you can snuggle for safety.

If you have a Granny though be sure to make it clear to her you do not wish to walk in the storm! Dig your nails in dude!!!

Blessing#2465-Safety First

I am completely exhausted by all the comings and goings.

We left home yesterday at 9:45 and were driving here there and everywhere till 2:00pm.

It’s all well and good going on car rides but being locked up with the niece for that amount of time would drive a saint insane.

I am glad Ma and Dad have Tuesday morning group today as it will give me at least a little peace to chill and catch up on my much needed rest.

I don’t know why humans feel the need to keep chasing after pipe dreams.

All they really need to do is sleep and see what lovely stories spontaneously surface!!

They never involve Pitties!!!

Blessing#2364-Slumbers

Today’s the day when we officially become proud owners of our new home.

Of course the place is to put it mildly “is in need of work”.

I don’t anticipate romping around the yard any time too soon but you know Ma she’s like a dog with a bone.

She has the painter all sorted and on Thursday has taken a day off at the tearoom to meet every other tradesman under the sun.

I know that eventually it will all be worth it but Ma is like a wound up spring. I’m just concerned she’ll snap like that fence at the ranch that is number one in the list of must do’s.

Blessing#2363-Speedy Gonzales

Ma was not concentrating yesterday when she pumped her gas and didn’t realize the system was set to super premium rather than cheapest of cheap lead free.

Alas this means she spent five dollars more than she needed to which drove her apoplectic with rage.

You know how she is on the penny pinching.

She was about to go and ask for a refund and then gave that second thoughts as it was her own negligence.

Now she is hopeful that Aretha will overnight turn into some sort of luxury vehicle along the lines of Cinderella.

I doubt it but you can be sure until she’s running on empty again Ma will be paying close attention to the miles she gets per gallon!!

Blessing#2362-Pumkins and Glass Slippets

Ma is driving me stir crazy.

She was up at 5:00 am these past few days googling such eclectic subjects as sanitation services, dumpster rental, countertops and of course the ubiquitous daffodil paint.

When she went out and pulled her first bunch of the year from the yard I thought I might pack up and leave.

We were then all subjected to a PhD thesis on the different yellows that even a small bouquet of her favs can yield.

MERCY!

I keep telling her all she needs to do is match up with BIG BIRD and she’ll be just fine.

I may have to endure this for the foreseeable future so please keep me in your prayers.

Life is never easy living with a nutter.

Blessing#2361-Jolly Jaune

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

We are all set for soaring temperatures but maybe a little rain too.

As long as the boom booms stay away I’ll be just fine.

I’m so looking forward to sun bathing soon.

It’s one of my very favorite pastimes.

I’m afraid I made a mess of our patio furniture cushions with my long nails but Granny has resourceful source new ones from a dumpster dive.

I love my Granny’s impressive intelligence and initiative in solving such problems.

Girls rule.

Be like me and Granny!!!

When Auntie Phyllis passed over the rainbow bridge Ma took it upon herself to contact some of PCs friends and share the sad news with them.

This reacquainted Ma with some close mutual friends they shared back in the days they spent together in Switzerland.

It also allowed Ma to meet, albeit virtually, Miss Pamela who lives in Carolina and was Phyllis’s best friend for many many years.

The two have hit it off and are keeping in touch and so it was a great surprise yesterday when Ma received this beautiful gift from Pamela along with a lovely card.

This little silver tree has a jeweled cardinal in it and the message “Forever in our Hearts” engraved on it.

Here many people believe when you see one of these sweet little birds that a loved one is saying hello from heaven.

Ma has hung it on her rear view mirror so she will see it every day.

It is so precious and so touching.
