Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween Everyone! Hope you all get great treats!

April Fool's Day

What? Are you saying it's April Fool's Day mom? We haven't even had Halloween yet. Or Thanksgiving, Or Christmas. How could it be April Fool's Day? OMG! Snow? They're predicting SNOW FLURRIES this weekend? Yup, you're right. It IS April Fool's Day!

Seriously, they've predicted snow showers this weekend. Sigh. It's going to be a loooong winter!

Wordless Wednesday

It Didn't Work!

Yesterday I was explaining how I was trying to Jedi Mind Trick mom into leaving food close to the edge of the counter. Guess what? It didn't work. Blast. Now for Plan B!

Monday, Monday

Oh, it's Monday again. That means mom and Dad have to go to work and PlusOne has to go to school. It also means I have to figure out how to get the food on the counter. Here I am sending telepathic messages to Mom to make her leave the asparagus close to the edge of the counter. That and the buns, and the bananas and the cookies....

Easy Like Sunday Morning

Just enjoy the sunshine. You can never get too much of it, especially after all the rain we've had.

Funny Truisms

We've all done these at some point. Even if you won't admit it.

#1  You do something perfect repeatedly until someone is watching you. (All the time at karate, lol)

#2  The only thing worse then finding a spider in your room is losing a spider in your room. (Then I call Dad or PlusOne)

#3  It won't work no matter what you do until you make someone else try it. Then it works perfectly. (This is what my co-workers say when I come to fix their problem.)

#4 Yelling "DONT MOVE!" at an inanimate object expecting it to listen. (No comment)
 
#5  Telling yourself to get up early because you have to do something important. Then convincing yourself in the morning why it's not important. (I plead the Fifth)
 
#6  That moment you realize that person wasn't waving at you. (sigh)
 
#7 When you're with a group of people and a stranger calls you by name but you can't remember theirs so you call them by anything but their name hoping someone around you will say it so you don't have to ask. (okay, okay)
 
#8 At some point in your life you've tried to balance the light switch in the middle. (maybe)

#9  Closing the fridge slowly to know exactly when the light turns off. (I was bored)

#10  Yelling "don't even think about it!" From another room because you heard someone say "hey guys watch this" (Oh yeah)

#11  Finding nothing in the fridge the first time but you go back again as I'd the food fairies dropped off new food for you. (ummm)

#12  Texting someone "I'm almost there" when you haven't even left the house yet. (I don't text, but I have called and said the same thing)

#13  Checking your phone for the time then checking again because you weren't paying attention the first time. (yeah)
 
#14  Running for the phone at full speed only to pick it up and have it already hung up. (grrr)

Hope you laughed at at least a few of them.

 

More Rain??

To say it rained hard yesterday is like saying we got a little snow in February of 1978 (where we received 27" of snow in 2 days). The wind was howling and the rain was basically a deluge. Mom was wondering if she had to start building an ark! She didn't like driving to work with it being so dark and miserable (and people driving TOO fast and with NO lights on). She wants the rain to stop before she floats away. I want the rain to stop because I HATE getting wet. Believe me when I say that my eyeballs are floating before I admit to needing to pee!

It's Raining... Again

Well, it's been said we need the rain, but I'll bet there are places that need it more and as far as I'm concerned, they can have the rain. They just have to come and get it. lol

Wordless Wednesday

Ahhhh

Mom says one of the best investments she ever made in the house was her bubble jet tub. (Here is PlusOne demonstrating because Mom certainly isn't about to!) The wacky weather last week really played havoc with Mom's knees, so she was sore all weekend. Until she spent almost an hour in her tub. She said is was really, really nice.

I, on the other hand, would not willingly get in it. No matter how much fun Mom and PlusOne say it is!

Pulled Pork

Dad made pulled pork yesterday. It was delicious. The only complaint mom had was she said it was hard to eat it with me giving her this look from under the coffee table. What's so bad about this look. All I was asking her to do was SHARE. Is that so bad?

Just Checking

It's the middle of October, right? Just checking. (Mom got the last one, so the big one is PlusOne's.) As for the other four, if they manage to turn red I think it will be whoever gets them first.  lol

More Rain

It is supposed to rain some more today, so Lucky and I are parking ourselves in the recliner and we're not going out for ANYTHING! You hear that Mom, you hear that Dad! Nothing is going to get us outside. NOTHING.

Building An Ark

NH got nailed by heavy rains yesterday. There were flash flood warnings all day long. It finally stopped late, but this was what it looked like. The big band of yellow and red basically moved west to cover all of NH and it was NASTY! I am so glad I was inside!

Prop Needed

PlusOne needed a self portrait with a prop. It had to be in black and white. Instead of using Lucky, he used me! I have been demoted to being a PROP!

sigh.

Worst School Photo EVER!!!!

This is OFFICIALLY the worst school photo EVER! Photo re-do day is the 30th. 

A MUCH better example of how to take a school photo!

Evil, But Interesting

Mom and Dad started watching How To Get Away With Murder. It's really evil, how unethical, unprincipled and slimy the characters have become in only three episodes. But it's SO interesting. A lot of the TV mom and dad watch is starting to bore mom. Trust me, this isn't boring!

Back To Work Monday

Well, it's back to work for mom. And of course, it means we have to go back to work as well, protecting the house and keeping up the happy energy vibes that all pugs give off when they're happy/ It's a tough job, buy someone has to do it.

Easy Like Sunday Morning

I like it when mom drags our bed over to the sunbeam. It's the best way to spend a Sunday. Don't you agree?

Snoozy Saturday

Seriously, what else are we supposed to do when Mom and PlusOne go to Karate and Dad goes off to spend time with his brother? I think this is a perfectly acceptable option. Don't you?

Flashback Friday

Someone was helping mom wash the dishes, lol. At least I think it was the dishes.

Thoughtful Thursday

Well, it would be thoughtful if mom were so worn out by doing the physical inventory at two stores (45 minutes apart) a new business email system, and End of Year at her store, with all the reports and work that entails. I bet you she is thinking that it would be really THOUGHTFUL of her boss to give her a day off. What do you think? lol

Love IS All You Need

Mom saw this and thought is was just wonderful. It's all about love and the sooner everyone figures that out, the better it will be! Hope you enjoy it.

Plans For The Day

It is supposed to rain today, so Lucky and I are planning accordingly. Aren't we just smarties!

The Stud

Seriously, what else is mom supposed to say when she has a photo of PlusOne and SEVEN girls? sigh.

Easy Like Sunday Morning

Ah, I love Sundays. And this weekend mom didn't have to go help Memere. She was rather happy about that and Memere laughed about it as well. Oh well, here's to happy Sundays.

Rain Rain, Go Or Stay

Rain rain, go or stay

I don't care either way

I'm nice and warm, happy and fed

I think I will stay here

right in this bed!

Friday, Phew

Thie week was year end inventory for mom. She did inventory (with a really cool bar code gun) at her location on Monday and then went to the other store on Wednesday. She spent yesterday reconciling the other store. She's tired. She says she feels like I look in the above photo. She says she wouldn't mind being me for a day or two. HA! She'd be bored before the first day was over! I on the other hand, know a good thing when I have it! And I have a good life~

Excuse Me

Can't you see I'm busy? Please go bother Dad! Thank you very much. I appreciate it. lol

Almost Wordless Wednesday

I love the back of the sofa!
