Just one more weekend left this year.

It’s hard to believe that so many days have passed.

Maybe it’s because I have spent more time sleeping this year than ever before.

You know I have to follow the example set by Ma and she is getting worse and worse.

Can’t keep her peepers open past nine yet she’s wide awake at five in the morning.

I’m trying to persuade her she has to break this rhythm and stay up half an hour later each evening until she reaches midnight.

She says it must be a hundred years since she stayed up that late.

Even I wasn’t around that long ago!!

Precious Peeps it’s a very Pudgy Pitty here to project you into the weekend.

Some of you may have time off between Christmas and New Year but Granny and Dad don’t

It’s just as well as I need my beauty sleep.

All the eating and chewing clean did me in.

I couldn’t make it through the Christmas special. I passed into Pitty paradise half way through.

Yesterday I took it a lot easier apart from two long trots.

Now I’m raring to go again for the weekend.

I hope you too have recovered and are preparing for more feasting.

We don’t have any special food planned. maybe some more of that BEAT BUT that autocorrect came up with in the Gizzards memo of yesterday.

He really should read his posts before pressing publish.

Sounds interesting though! Nice and fatty and chewy. Must put it on the menu!!

Well did you eat enough for a week or what?

If not why not? Are you on Krypton?

I was exhausted with all the goodies and with chewing my new Nyla so had to sleep for three hours after lunch.

We went form a short trot with Auntie Denise to build appetite and then returned to watch Murder on the Orient Express and prepare for the beat but of the day.

Turkey sandwiches loaded with stuffing and cranberry sauce, mince pies and Call the Midwife. The special lasted two hours so we had to have some banana chips to sustain us to the end.

I felt it was most appropriate and very well thought through that Auntie Marsha got Ma such beautiful earrings as a present.

Precious Peeps I have the honor to be the author of this greeting as Christmas comes on humpty day.

Yesterday I got a new Nyla from my dear auntie Denise so I will be tucking into that a little later.

I also know that Santa came to my house as I can smell something in a stocking and it’s not one of Granny’s socks.

Santa knows that even if I’m not always the best behaved I am the most Perfect Pitty on the planet!

Our Auntie Hamsa sent us this wish all the way from India that sums up my feelings entirely.

Sending all of you the love that is always in my heart. Even for the stinking Gizz.

We are running late! Slept in till 7:10.

We meet Auntie Denise at 7:45 so we had to quickly get me my pee and brew and make toast.

Dad had put out the Christmas mugs that immediately got us in a good mood.

We also managed to make a mistake by accidentally calling cousin Krishna in India when we were reading his daily message to us.

He always sends us words or wisdom or funny cartoons.

Here’s one from today that comes in very useful.

Talk tomorrow

Off to wake up the naughty niece

When the sun comes out it makes you feel a bit more festive.

So yesterday afternoon we jumped in the car and took a little ride to see our pal Liz.

On the highway there was a big smash with four cars involved. That always gives me the hebegebees but thankfully only the cars were hurt.

Poor people must feel so sick. If you’ve ever been in a crash you understand.

You gotta wonder where were they going. To the airport or to see family or maybe just doing some shopping.

Dings and dents are things you can fix let’s hope they get to their destination safe and soon.

Do you ever wake up really early and decide it’s way too soon to get going?

Well so it was with Ma and me this morning. We decided to pull up the covers and have another snooze.

The thing about such snoozes, if you have ever noticed, is that they are short but dreamy.

You can have several of them if you choose before regular getting up time and that is just what we did.

They are particularly refreshing and put you in a good mood.

I dreamed of deer hunting and Ma told me she dreamed of popping the biggest pimple.

In the dream it was on her chin and didn’t look that big when she started to squeeze it but a bucket load of brown gunk came out of it that had the consistency of mashed potatoes.

Let’s take it as a given that we will not be serving chestnut purée with the big bird.

On that joyous note have a great Sunday.

Maybe it’s because it’s raining all the time these days but it sure feels dull and dreary.

I get what Mariah is chanting about “it’s not like Christmas at all”!

What to do?

Step 1 – recap that Ma removed turkey from freezer and put in fridge as a reminder of only four sleeps to go.

Step 2 – make shopping list in head in sync with Ma and collectively debate on whether to buy Brussels sprouts or not agree to get them so buy extra bacon to make them edible.

Step 3 – when awakened by Casey at 2:00 am ponder if main meal is to be served as lunch or dinner. Select lunch so you can have Turkey sandwiches while watching Call the Midwife special.

Step 4– remember you already made mince pies

Step 5- decide to eat mince pies for breakfast!

Suddenly it feels just a little more seasonal!

Gotta go!

Blessing#2290-Kick Starts

Precious Peeps it’s MERRY MAGICAL ME here to project you into the frenzied Friday that is the last before Christmas.

You gotta get all those last minute gifts and groceries in.

Even though I ripped up that pillow yesterday I’m staying zen about Santa.

He knows my heart and that I am the sweetest most gentle Pitty on the planet.

Contrary to the stinking Gizz’s projection my poop like me was perfectly formed yesterday.

It is only grumpy old grey geysers like him that get the gippies when they chew on something succulent.

I am thinking Santa may realize that this need to chew is linked to boredom and bring me a nice big toy.

I’ve dropped enough hints on that subject for one day so must go now and be on best behavior since I hear Granny is in cahoots with the red coat.

Only five sleeps to go dear ones. Be good!
