Booming Banter

We’re on blessing number 2020 today and it got me thinking of all the things that have happened since that New Years Day when we took this pic!

A pandemic, a new president in the USA, a new monarch in the UK and so many more.

The arrival of my nemesis the startup of our tearoom making new friends saying goodbye to others.

Yet so much stays the same hair grows, coffee brews and we still walk around in circles.

Blessing#2020-Constants

It is excessively frustrating when things don’t work out the way they should.

You put pics in your post and they don’t appear when you push publish!

Fortunately what you missed yesterday was a post from a PIT and not from me.

We all encounter hurdles and this may seem trite but it’s an example that you have to keep going and keep doing what you do in the hope what happened yesterday won’t happen again today.

So just to show I don’t bear grudges here is herself up front.

Blessing#2019-Try Try Again

Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect here to cheer you up for this wet weather day!!!

First, apologies for the triple hit of yesterday’s emissions from the stinker. I cannot explain why WordPress felt the need to issue this since it was a load of $&?£.

Now on to wisdom from this wonderful woman!

It is a truth universally acknowledged that you cannot bake scones without flour and so it was that Granny tossed the stinker and me into the car to head for Aldi as she had forgotten to get said substance on Sunday.

As always I was given my place in the trunk but as you know I’m super smart.

So it was that in the time it took to buy a bag of flour I managed to push the back seat forward and get right up to the steering wheel.

The rotter was transposed into the trunk.

Girl POWER precious PEEPS

Blessing#2018-Rightful Places

Were you struck by the size of the moon these past nights.

Truly gigantic.

Well of course it woke us up. Ma put her arm around me as usual and then realized she’d got her paw covered in FRONTLINE that had be applied to my neck and nether regions by the Bro just before bedtime.

It smells good that potion but since it’s not approved for humans Ma had to get up and wash her paws and of course was then wide awake.

Snuggling was now off limits so we had a little chitty chat about things until I fell asleep and started snoring.

Ma says that snoring is infectious so she got back to sleep too.

Blessing#2017-Pest Control

On Thursday Ma got a big surprise.

This lovely lady she’d never met showed up at the tearoom bearing a gift of immeasurable beauty.

Jennifer of Sugarplum Fairy Confectionery had baked a cake to symbolize the tearoom.

Each piece was edible!

Ma was dumbfounded but quickly made tea and along with Auntie Paula and Jennifer had a taste of the treats.

What of the centerpiece teapot itself?

Fear not it was a surprise also for Kairos team 55 yesterday who were having the fourth of their six team meetings.

Not a crumb was left! That speaks volumes for the Sugarplum Fairy’s ability and also for the sweet toothed sisterhood.

Blessing#2016-Sweet hearts

Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect here to sing of the joys of spring.

I am feeling excessively exquisite at present because my coat is shining and lush unlike the Grey Gizzard who looks quite frankly freaky.

He really is like Mr Hyde when he gets his hair hacked.

Goes even more mean and nasty than before.

That’s why I strongly recommend never to buy any sort of “Doodle” stick with Purebred Pitties we never need to be groomed!

We’re born beautiful!!!!!

Blessing#2015-Carefree

When I get my haircut I always feel the need to snuggle.

All last night I lay close to Mom as I was feeling chilly. It was way too cold and lonely under the bed.

When you do get cosy it’s so much harder to get up.

You feel so warm and mellow and just want to snooze some more.

But then you nose it FRIDAY and suddenly a little shot of energy hits you and you are good to go.

Blessing#2014-Blanket Buddies

You know the way I was moaning yesterday about deer and storms and all sorts of pink stuff well sometimes it pays to complain.

No sooner had I emitted the missile than Ma says “Let’s go Scoob”.

I was confused as it was Wednesday and she works Wednesday but I thought maybe I’d got lucky and she was taking me to town.

Well no she wasn’t it was time for the spring trim.

Make that styling!!

I was so beautiful I made it to the internet!!! Couldn’t escape the pink even at the salon!

Ohio weather is not being friendly though. Here I am this morning with freezing temperatures (-6C) and no coat.

Send me a fur please.

Blessing#2013-Done and Dusted.

Remember it was summer last week well yesterday it was freezing and there were 40mph gales!

Regardless Mom braved the storm and we went for a long walk in the morning and then had a great rest in the afternoon. She is still recovering from Sunday’s stress.

Even though it’s cold today all the spring flowers are blooming and after our siesta we got the bunnies out for Easter. Pink power is prevalent!! Help!!!

The deer are also doing my head in. They love to eat the blossoms on our trees and even if I bark like a basset for hours they continue their acrobatics and totally tuck in.

I suppose all this is the price a puppy pays for long days and warm weather and evening walks to come.

Blessing#2012-Primavera

Cillian Murphy may have won the Oscar for Oppenheimer but I’m afraid that movie put me to sleep.

Way too long to concentrate and very very heavy.

I like light of a night.

Which takes me to my point of the day. Social media can make you horribly jealous.

Take this for a kennel if you would.

If my Ma loves me as much as she says she does why don’t I have one of these.

If I choose to lie under her bed rather than snuggle in beside her all I have is carpet.

I don’t have a cosy cottage all to myself with a pillow and mattress.

This will have to be addressed.

Of course it will be when I move to the White House where my Presidents Suite will be all set with my very own four poster.
