So just when we thought it was winter summer made a comeback.

We slept in yesterday as it doesn’t get light till past seven so we had a short shift around the block as Ma was on usher duty at church.

The Bro was home so we watched the footie instead of CNN. A wonderful diversion from back biting is striking into a net.

After a nice siesta in the afternoon we went for a long trot with Auntie Denise.

It was roasting so we enjoyed a quaff of Adam’s Ale on our return while Ma guzzled a Natural Light!

Sometimes you just have to be happy when you have warm days, pure blue skies and nothing to do but admire the foliage and relax.

If you had to listen to me make a speech what would you like to hear?

Do you want to know about my plan to boost the economy by making functional dog biscuits? They would be filled with ingredients to help digestion, give fresh breath, manage sleep and even slow the aging process.

Discoveries would of course be shared with the human medical community!

What about universal healthcare for all including pets? Would that be a bitter pill to swallow or set you heart on fire?

Maybe the position with the greatest appeal would be to ban bad news.

Just imagine if all we heard were feel good stories. Pups and peep projects, kitties being kind to kids, heck even hamsters helping the environment by running in their wheels.

There has gotta be something better than all this yapping and yelling! We need to bite into something more wholesome!

Y’all know by now that Ma is mad on the moon.

Keeps trying to get a good photo of it but always seems to mess up.

Some are « howlingly » bad. Woof woof!!

Sends me crazy especially when she has to dash out with her camera first thing in the morning when I have more important business to do.

If anyone has tips on how to make the pie in the sky look better please call me.

In the meantime get your early votes in for the cuddliest candidate on the ticket!!!

Precious Peeps it’s that day you have been waiting for when your very own Pitty Perfect wishes you a happy weekend.

I have no great plans for the moment just hoping to hang out with my very own hooman.

Now don’t get me wrong Granny is OK if a little goofy but she does favor « her dog » the stinking Gizz.

Grandpa is almost as Grumpy as the aforementioned. Hardly a bundle of giggles!

That’s why I have Dad he’s mine alone and we have that special attachment that only one man and one dog can have.

Hope you get to snuggle with your special someone this Saturday or Sunday!

I am excessively fed up with Ma. She is spending way too much too much time at the tearoom and not nearly enough time managing my campaign.

Yesterday she combined her daily duties with a special event at the woman’s club.

Didn’t come home till dark.

What an opportunity I missed I could have worked on my future coin too.

Now how am I meant to make any impact if I can’t even leave the homestead. You have got to be seen to be heard!!! More importantly you gotta make your mark!!!!!!

She has promised that one of these days when it’s not too hot or not too cold she’ll take me to work with her.

That way at least I can do a little door to door and lamppost to lamppost communication.

The clock is ticking!

Precious Peeps Pits Perfect here to push you with passion over the Humpty Dumpty.

I am feeling particularly perky at present because it’s cooled down swiftly.

It’s great to be able to walk for miles without having my tongue tripping me up.

To be honest I’m confident I could take myself into town for some shopping and snacking but you know the old gal won’t let me roam alone.

If you have the chance to get out and about on your « Todd Sloan » take it.

I can’t think of anything sweeter than escaping from these ancients and of course from the pretentious Presidential candidate I have to endure.

Thank goodness all these swing states are surrounding Ohio or I’d never be able to get there. Ma is too tight to fund an air ticket!!

Secretly she likes to drive me around playing campaign manager!

Both my competitors were in Pennsylvania yesterday. It was wild cold so I decided to stay home and let them get on with it.

I do like a long trot but it’s not so pleasant when you’re freezing and Ma was baking so she wouldn’t take me.

Maybe they’ll both get pneumonia and then there will be no need to vote. I’ll be automatically instituted.

It’s warming up later in the week so I might hit Detroit.

I am pretty sure all those auto workers will love me especially when we lay down tools and « Rock Around the Clock »!!!!

Blessing#2223-Motown

Just three weeks left to make it to the White House.

Of course I know I can’t move in until January but I got to thinking about what I’ll need to pack.

I’m sure there will be no need for kibble as I’ll have a chef chopping up chicken for dinner and of course I’ll have bacon for breakfast.

As I don’t have a doggie bed and since I don’t wear clothes all I’ll need is my leash and collar.

I’m pretty sure the secret service will be delighted that I’m so low maintenance. The move should be over in a matter of minutes.

Oh but then if they allow me to bring Ma and Pa that’s a different kettle of fish.

Maybe I’ll just leave them here in Ohio. It’s about time I stood on my own four feet.

It could get a bit lonesome and cold during the night though. Do you think any of the staff would be around to snuggle up with?

Do you ever see something and wonder why you didn’t think of it yourself.

When I hit on this post with Ma this morning I was like « flip it we could have been billionaires »

Don’t you think it’s cute especially for sophisticated sorts like myself.

Of course you know who would want to be in on the act except she’d eat her adornments before you could say neckerchiefs.

Maybe I can do something similar for poop bags. Scooby’s Doo!!!

All the pals in Northern Ireland were posting spectacular pictures of the aurora on Thursday evening.

So Ma said « let’s see Scoob if we can pick up anything here »

We went out and pointed the iPhone north with flash off and what do you know we saw something.

Now granted this is not nearly as awesome as the heavens of the Emerald Isle but as Shauna, one of Ma’s school pals reflected « isn’t it amazing we are all witnessing the same cosmic delight across the globe »

Got me thinking of all the things we might be missing just because we haven’t looked.
