Easy Like Sunday Morning

Ahh, it is nice to have our house (and bathroom) back to ourselves, no refugees or visitors just mom, dad and PlusOne, Lucky, me and the sun. Just the way I like it.

Seriously???

A family member (who shall remain nameless) told Mom that our fur cousin Millie would be fine at her house with no heat and no power. After all, she was a cat and had fur. All mom wanted to say was SERIOUSLY? WTF??? There was no way mom was going to let Millie stay in a house with no heat when the outside temperature was going to be 8 degrees.

Now granted, it's a pain not being able to go into the downstairs bathroom and pull on the toilet paper but even I am not so mean and uncaring that I want Millie to be a frozen catsicle rather than have her stay in my house.

However, if she shreds all the toilet paper without me, I will be really upset.

The Cat In The Bathroom

Change of plans!Mom, Dad and PlusOne were supposed to go to Auntie's for dinner yesterday. But Auntie lost power on Wednesday, and when it still wasn't up yesterday morning, a change of venue was called for.

Mom set the table using the tablecloth Auntie had made specifically for Thanksgiving.

Here's me and mom's older brother.

Here's Lucky all tuckered out from all the company, noise and lots and lots of snuggles.

Here's PlusOne's dogwood tree. The snow was wet and heavy and bent the tree right over. That's why so many people had no power in New Hampshire yesterday. Mom was one of the lucky ones. The only really bad news was that temperatures dropped into the 20's last night and Auntie did not want Millie to stay in her house with no heat. So Auntie went and brought Millie over to our house. There is a CAT in our downstairs bathroom. I think she's pretty peeved about it. I have to say I am glad I am not in the bathroom WITH her! lol

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I am especially thankful that we a) did not lose power last night and b) do not have to leave the house today. Mom, Dad and PlusOne are going to Auntie's (if she has power) but since Auntie has a kitty we get to stay home and be WARM! yeah!

Oh yeah, everyone, be safe as well!

Almost Wordless Wednesday

Seriously? The day before Thanksgiving? Nuts!

Scary Thought

Next week is December! EEEEK!

Usually

Usually I am on top of Lucky (because she is between dad and me) but this time Lucky decided I was the pillow. So, I let her, I guess she shouldn't always be the pillow.

Easy Like Sunday Morning

Dads are warm. I like that! Especially on Sunday mornings.

Sad - Tell Your Loved Ones How You Feel

The above photo is a picture of a fatal truck crash that happened yesterday afternoon. The man who died worked with Dad. He had been a driver for 20 years. He was driving down 93S and clipped a tow truck in the breakdown lane. That caused his front bumper to come off which in turn ripped the front right wheel out. The truck spun, went into a ditch and rolled over. The driver was killed instantly.

Tell your loved ones how you feel. This accident probably happened in seconds and it was all over. It is making mom really sad and she has been telling all her friends how much they mean to her. You never know from one minute to the next what will happen in your life. Don't make it worse by not telling the people you love you care about them. And don't walk away from a loved one angry. You may never get the chance to apologize or accept their apology.

Thank God Thursday

Yeah, we are thanking God for:
1)we do not live in Buffalo and
2) the doors to our house are NOT on ground level, they are actually up several feet. Nice to know we could actually get out if we wanted. Of course with that much snow, who would want to!

We sure hope they don't get two more feet of snow. Who knows where they would put it?

Go Away Mom!

What is it about mom's and their stupid flashie things, that they have to capture EVERY moment of our lives. When we're feeling good, when we're feeling yukky, when we're peeing, pooping, sleeping, eating! Hey mom, would you like it if I took a photo of you eating or sleeping or going to the bathroom? Sigh. There's no such thing as privacy any more!

Upset Tummy

My Tummy was upset yesterday morning (it's because I try to eat the leftover berries and green beans in the garden) so I stayed close to mom. She was reading in bed and I liked being next to her under the covers. She and dad laugh because I knock the sofa pillows around until I get a nice little Roxy cave to keep myself warm. Dad said that even thought the thermometer said 42 degrees F it did not feel like it. He said it felt colder. At least we have had any snow.... yet!

Easy Like Sunday Morning

Lucky and I are going to sit in sunbeams today while mom cleans out the play room. It's cold, but at least it's sunny. Enjoy your day! We are going to enjoy ours!

Snoozing Saturday

What do you do when the temperature drop under 30 degrees F at night? Sleep. On a blanket. Or preferably UNDER a blanket!

That's much better!

Funny Photo Friday

This is a typical PlusOne photo. Total goofball all the way. (But mom still loves him so much!)

 

Mom can't even begin to describe what she feels about this photo. Suffice to say that she can hear PlusOne going "Toodle-oo"

sigh

It makes the next photo so much more special

 

 

Mom loves this photo because PlusOne is being natural and not making any goofy faces and because he looks so handsome.

Don't Make Me Beg

But if you do, I will. lol Especially for any type of green vegetable. Well, except Brussel Sprouts. lol

Thank You Veterans

Thank you to all the Veterans out there who have served our country. Please know we are grateful.

Wish For A Repeat

Mom sure wishes it wasn't Monday today, but Sunday again, so she could stay in bed, take cold medicine and get better. Especially since she feels like an elephant trampled her. It's bad enough she's congested, tired and has a runny nose. To feel like she's been used as a punching bag is just too much. Can't we have a repeat of yesterday? Please?

Very Easy Like Sunday Morning

Mom is fighting a cold, so I am going to make sure she takes it VERY easy today. If that means sleeping on her knees, oh well. I gotta do what a pug's gotta do. Right?

Sleepy Saturday

Yeah, mom wishes she were doing this as well. Can you blame her? Don't I look comfy and WARM?

Full Moon

You know, mom couldn't figure out why everyone was being really weenie-like yesterday, making mom want to scream (actually she did, and she looked sorta like this)

until the moon came up. Then she went "ahhh!" I know there is something about the full moon making people nutso. I just have to say I am happy it doesn't affect us pugs. Actually, mom is happy about that as well. Here's hoping today is a better, quieter day.

Tattle Tale Tuesday

Thank goodness Election Day is here and I can stop going blah blah blah when all the political ads come on the TV, playing over and over and over again. And maybe now the phone will stop ringing from people calling all over the place to make sure mom and dad vote. Trust me, they wouldn't miss voting for ANYTHING. Now maybe we'll have peace at dinner time!

Frigid!

It was 39 degrees yesterday but the wind chill brought it down to 27 degrees. Lucky and I went out when dragged but then we went right back in again. Mom washed the carpet in the living room while Dad went to watch the football game at a friend's house and PlusOne went to work. It was quiet, but nice. AND WARM!!!

Up north they got snow, someone mentioned 12 inches and all mom and dad could say was, better you than me. I agree wholeheartedly!

Insanity

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Mom is insane because she thinks that November won't mean snow. After 50 odd years, you would think she would know better.

As for Lucky and I...

We're just taking it easy. After all, it IS Easy Like Sunday Morning. (Even if it is snowing up north.)

One More Hour

Yeah, we get one more hour of sleep tonight! Yippie! Considering we are supposed to have wild winds and rain (and someone called it a nor'easter) you can bet your sweet bottom that BED is where I WANT to be. Warm and dry and snuggly!
