Well the good news is Ma got her sale tax done. She filed and paid them yesterday thanks to the Ohio automated system.

The computer must have felt sorry for her because it didn’t charge her a late fee only a manageable $3.75 interest on the delayed payment.

She is now in a serene state and not at odds with the world anymore.

We are trying to decide if we’re going to do any work today or have a holiday.

The work to be done is same old same old change of beds, laundry, dusting, swiftering etc

I’m leaning towards vegetating.

Many people will go to the pools and beaches for the last hooray of summer but personally I prefer the shores of slumbers.

I really do love bed but I suppose that is only because I’m forced to get out of it.

Like all things it would become boring if you were stuck in it 24/7.

Regardless of where you are or what you’re doing just switch your mind to “take it easy” and hum like an Eagle all day!!!

Ma was a bit tense last evening when she returned from the tearoom. She’d got a letter from Ohio State.

Not the football team but the tax office.

In the pandemonium of cleaning and clearing and measuring and moving she’d forgotten to file the half year sales tax return for her empire.

Now let me tell you dear friends this revenue would not be sufficient to buy hotdogs to feed even half the Buckeye Team.

Still it set her back to think she has made even less than she thought she had.

Honestly I ask myself why she bothers.

Just as well it’s Sunday we can snuggle and sleep.

Must up and trot now!

Here in the USA it is the Labor Day weekend. That means people have Monday off.

Here in Ohio it’s even more of a happy time because THE BUCKS aka The Ohio State University football team start their season. They play Texas at midday.

There is fever pitch excitement all around.

Can’t say I’m particularly fussed.

I’m more of a tennis fan myself which reminds me there is also the US Open going on.

I think maybe I should get up now or I might miss something else like a Grand Prix or Manchester United playing Liverpool.

Whatever you’re doing enjoy and be sure to wear your red and grey like me!

Precious peeps it’s the PERFECT one here to project you into a wonderful weekend.

I am hopeful it will be calmer than the last.

A few outings would be OK but I’m not keen on being caged in ARETHA with that Grey Gizzard smell for too long.

A little trip or two to the trails would be just fine.

It’s great walking weather so I think if we get viewings we should pack up Grandpa and park him with his book by the lake or the river while we take the air.

Who knows I might meet some handsome hound who’d like to hitch up with me.

I’d prefer a big guy like an Alsacien or Saint Bernard as they’d be useful to do in the Gizz.

As my Granny often says “a girl can but dream”

Remember that my lovelies and be like me always upbeat and smiling and get out there and strut your stuff!!!

Yesterday was “normal”.

When you’ve been used to crazy for a while “normal” feels so nice.

Ma went to the tearoom and Dad and I rested while Jaws was sleeping in her chamber.

I didn’t even mind that we had to watch Judge Judy. It felt so good to hear that familiar voice.

Ma reported back that they have started laying the floors in the new ranch and it looks like there are bits of cabinets in the garage ready to be assembled.

Still no takers on this place.

Keep us in your prayers please that soon the right people who need our space show up and snap us up quickly.

Precious Peeps it’s your one and only PERFECT PRINCESS here to heave you over the humpty.

I wish it to be known that my reputation is being jeopardized by a certain stinking piece of grey gunk!

He is like one of those big bits of dust that accumulate under large pieces of furniture only this fur ball breathes. Usually down my neck!!!

This world would benefit greatly from his extermination.

Did you hear what he said about my bit of fun with his stupid toy.

What middle aged mutt do you know who actually plays with toys.

He is feeble minded and stupid as a goose.

There I feel better.

Hope you like me can vent to your little heart is content with your legion of faithful followers.

Be like me outspoken and outstanding!!!

We had to get out of the house again for another viewing.

Since it was close to dinner time Ma said we’d go get fish and chips.

We picked up the humans yum yums and went to the big Metro park to eat them.

We tried to find a quiet spot but it was busy there so we just sat in the car while Ma and Pa dug in.

I enjoyed the share I was given but was amazed the niece refused to eat even the tiniest morsel.

Maybe it was the vinegar that put her off or maybe she is on hunger strike because of being squeezed in the trunk.

So far no offers please pray one come soon.

Just slept like a little log all night long.

The trauma of yesterday amazingly did not have an impact.

What I hear you gasp.

It was tragic.

See Ma played fetch with me for ages again up at the new homestead.

We even let Jaws join in and she was starting to understand the rules.

Ma decided we need a break so she took to watering her plants and that was when it happened.

While her back was turned Jaws sneaked up on my toy and did what only she can do.

She shredded it in seconds. Stuffing everywhere!!!

Ma was MAD and Dad was MAD and I was MAD.

Don’t tell me that PIT did not understand.

Anyway the consequence is she gets no further access to my toys.

Ma and I will play this game like it’s tennis.

I was totally exhausted last night.

I must have run ten miles playing fetch.

As you can see if you look closely all of us enjoyed our vacation day at the new ranch.

Today will be like Groundhog Day as we have to press repeat.

The Bro is not coming as he is coaching little league football so I’ll have to ride with the niece.

We’re getting McDonald’s for lunch which is great because I love their fries. Salty as myself!!!

Ma is not “encouraging” us to swim as she fears we may bring wet dog aroma back to the current residence and that doesn’t mix with Glade Plug-ins.

We can take it a little easier this morning as dust doesn’t accumulate in a day.

Hope your planning on something fun too
