Booming Banter

Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect posting.

Have you missed me? I felt all the luv you sent my way and thanks to that and plenty of rest my tootsie is no longer so tender.

I’m generally back to my usual activities but still on my meds for a few more days because once you start antibiotics you need to keep taking them till they’re done.

Granny started out my wrapping them in bologna but soon realized that I’d eat them anyway in a handful of dog food.

Yesterday I was amazed when Grandpa uttered an immortal endorsement of my goodness “that dog is the easiest we’ve ever had to feed”

At last he said something sweet about me! I knew eventually I’d win him around

With the days getting shorter and Ma having to leave early for Kairos we get to do a bit of star gazing of a morning.

Yesterday the moon had a beautiful halo around it. We tried our best to capture it although only special peeps like uncle Sandy ever get the moon just right.

It was kinda spooky and made me think that Halloween is just one month away.

I think I might just have my costume sorted for this year with the help of a little superglue and a few tennis balls.

We’ll have to find something for Jaws.

Maybe she could be the shaker!

What if we were to can her and loose the opener.

Now there’s an idea.

I’m on guard duty.

JAWS shredded the Elizabethan collar. She is officially a contortionist now too!

Ma was mad! Dad was demented! As for the bro he was boiling because he shelled out a sizable sum to buy the wretched thing.

Now all eyes are on the lampshades just in case herself feels peckish while Ma is off at Kairos!!

I have been promised a Milk Bone for my endeavors. Gluten free eat your heart out!!!

You know that I’m going to focus on the 3Rs when I’m elected that’s because maths is marvelous.

Ma doesn’t understand it very well but she is in awe of people who do like Uncle Michael. He’s so smart.

He could work out this amazing miracle that Uncle Krishna sent us yesterday.

Ma is just totally gobsmacked by it.

It makes her think that God does good sums.

I tend to agree on that!

Bet one day we find the whole universe has some supernumerary stellar order to it too.

That’s why everyone needs to know the basics!

There is a great advantage in having a niece whose nuked her trotter. I get to go out alone with Ma.

We have had a blissful few days admiring the leaves and kicking back. Ma enjoyed the peace and quiet too. We were able to watch all the critters doing their thing without having shoulders dislocated.

The THING is doing her utmost to be endearing even trying to type.

She shot herself in the foot last night though by eating her Elizabethan collar.

Just a pity it didn’t choke her

Blessing#1838-Ma and Me Time

So Jaws got injured and got meds and a collar. Guess what I’ve got?

A heart murmur!!!

I didn’t have one last year when I went for my physical now I’ve got a level 2 out of score of 6!!!!!!

What changed? Well remember I got that tummy issue and Ma switched me to a gluten free diet. Well according to the vet there is a growing body of evidence that these diets are associated with heart issues in certain breeds.

Consequently I will be slowly returning to the grains. If they don’t cause tummy upsets then I’ll be eating yummy milk bones again.

In life you’ve got to take the rough with the smooth. I’m just hoping my little ticker doesn’t deteriorate as I really don’t want to have to take meds! Mummy has to watch me to make sure I’m not sleeping more than normal and do well on my walks.

I too would appreciate cards and treats.

Precious Peeps it’s a Poor Pits. I am suffering.

See yesterday I ran off again on Granny only this time I got a bobo.

An ouchy got into my paw.

It was the day for us to go the docs to get our shots so Dad took a long lunch to take me.

Granny took the Grumpy Grey.

Doc said that I had to have a lot of meds in case I get an infection in my paw pad.

The meds are OK as Granny put them in bologna but this collar sucks. I can’t do a thing with it on.

I’m a totally poor Pitty please tell everyone to send me get well cards and treats !

Oh the joy at the ranch last evening when Ma discovered she could pick up the favorite British TV show

It’s the original version of Dancing with the Stars and much funnier of course because some of the British celebs who are paired with professional look like Dad dancing.

Take Les Dennis he’s a great comedian but man he’s a joke on the dance floor.

Of course everyone will be rooting for him as he’ll be so entertaining.

They also always throw in an elderly entertainer this time the newsreader and broadcaster Angels Rippon. She’s 78 but dances like a professional. Seems she does Silver Swan classes with the Queen.

Helped her score! Will she win?

Who knows but at least we know what we’ll be watching each weekend from now till the Christmas finale.

Precious Peeps it’s Pits Perfect.

When I get a chance to get into the parents bathroom I love to get things out of the laundry basket and race around the house with them.

It drives Grandpa insane. Send his blood pressure through the roof.

Granny is pretty cool about it unless it’s one of her Spanx because those things designed to hold in tummies don’t come cheap.

Yesterday I got one of her trainers. Grandpa was apoplectic. Granny just said “oh let her have it they have hole in the soles anyway”

You know what? That took all the fun out of it. I really didn’t want it as much.

Why is it when there isn’t a chase there isn’t a race?

Ma is on the third of her five day team training meetings with the Kairos volunteers.

They start at 8:30 and go till 4:00 so it means she has to leave here at 7:45 and isn’t back till 5:00. So go figure fans we get a short shift in the morning and then are left with Dad on duty for the whole day.

There is but one single truth that unites us; Dad is always scolding us.

Try as we may to not get under his feet we always manage to annoy him.

The one good thing about such days is we get pizza for dinner as Ma can’t be bothered cooking.

If you would please sign up for the prayer chain for the weekend it might make Ma less moody. Drop one in for us also that we don’t murder each other until all this is over. Four whole days with Dad will be dire!
