One of Auntie Marsha’s gifts to Mom this Christmas was a personalized two year diary.
Yesterday Mom took to filling it in.
I watched carefully to see what’s going on and you wouldn’t believe but things are planned out as far as end of the year!
I’m exhausted already!!!!
Just as long as September 6 is written in stone and highlighted I’ll be fine. After all I’ll be SIX that day. It’s a Friday so everyone should be all set to celebrate!
My latest and greatest invention must be a doggie tea party. Do you want to come?
Last time she took seriously to knitting was in 2013 when she packed in the ciggies.
I wasn’t around then as you know but I understand that for weeks the needles were clicking at a tremendous rate and she hardly spoke to a soul. Had to concentrate!!
She found an inspirational pattern a few weeks ago and bought all the wool last week so now she’s off!!
This time she is cutting the alcohol back to 250ml of wine a day or two cans of beer that may seem a lot to y’all but it’s essentially half of her usual intake.
She is also limiting post dinner eating to a small desert rather than a bucket full of nachos or chips that are usually followed by chocs and bikkies!
It’s a shame because she was always quite generous at sharing these delights with me and the niece except of course the chocs that are toxic!
She has become way too chubby and she can’t get into many of her pretty clothes so she’s taking action.
She has been psyching herself up to this for weeks so of course every choc in the house had to be eaten except an extra special box’s from auntie Alicia next door that has been hidden away for her birthday weekend.
Please think of me and Nala and Dad and the bro as we endure this new cottage industry and are forced to watch the entire series of Allo Allo!!!
It’s been unbelievably mild here this winter. Hardly a frost and only one little snowfall.
Seems it’s the same in the Channel Islands where Ma’s mate Maggie lives. She posted a picture of a primerose already flowering in her garden yesterday.
It’s so pretty, usually you see them in April!
Ma fears for her daffodils that are sticking their green noses through our soil.
They will definitely be nuked if they get any further out as this is after all Ohio and we know for sure we are destined for the deep freeze before our spring flowers bloom.
It’s still a great feeling to realize we’ve made it to the end of December and that the days are already getting longer and warm days are round the corner. I just nose it’s coming
If you happen to live in the USA you write the date with the month first followed by the day and then the year. Everywhere else in the world they do it the logical way with the day first then the month and year.
When I become President I may impose the international standard here too. I won’t immediately attempt a conversion to the SI unitary system as that might cause a revolution and require much education that would dig a deeper debt deficit.
For now back to days months and years. One aspect of the current system is that it occasionally throws up a wacky winner.
Take this New Year’s Eve as an example. Unlike Kermit I realized this would happen months ago as I am something of a mathematical genius in addition to all other attributes.
Many people who just had the ah ha moment are scurrying to Las Vegas to say I do!!! Thinking the date must be auspicious the chapel of the Little Flower has seen bookings soar in the past days to more than triple the usual busy holiday traffic!!
Do not be so hasty dear hearts. All we need to do is prepare for that waltz and repeat after me 123123……
Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect here to get yet another loooooooooong weekend off to a wonderful start. Seeing me is sufficient!!!
Have you set your new year resolution yet?
I chewed over mine and concluded that my goal is to reach the pinnacle of perfection and be recognized for my outstanding attractiveness, abilities and attitude.
Partial as I am to a Nyla my thoughts are that I might promote the product on the large screen.
Don’t you think I would make the perfect spokesperson.
Consider the pearliness of my canines! The glow of my coat not to mention the sparkling of my eyes and my precious tinny tootsies!
Never was there such an outstanding strategic fit in the history of marketing.
Mark my words fame is in my fortune.
I love y’all!!!! Keep munching the collagen and you too could look like me!!!!!!
We got lots of bones for Christmas. One of them with a mint center was meant to last hours. The niece and me each got one and we both devoured it in minutes.
It was boring. It also blew up in my stomach which caused some miserable moments in the middle of the night. Never again Ma said.
Henceforce we are sticking to Nylas.
Fortunately Auntie Denise got us two new ones for our pressies.
We have had a little bit of battling over who owns which one.
I can only chew them for so long as it’s a real workout for the jaws but the niece knows no end to her endurance.
It’s not that I’ve given in or anything it’s just that I’ve got more important things on my mind.
