Day 882: Fursday Wif The Bliss And Firty-Five Percent Pout

Today was another gorgeous day wif the bright sunshine, beautiful bleu skies and a high of mid 60s! I fink in the description of Total Bliss... these are requisites!

And me and the Bleu do enjoy our time, millin about... 

And shnoofin the squirrel trails... 

And we even watched wif excitement as a pair of em ran the power line!

It really IS hard to be inside all day, watchin these little terrorists have their way wif my yard and my pecans.

It is is an atrocity of the worst kind, and I feel the need to sort of point it out to the Mom... they were here and here and here... O! And also there! Just sayin.

They even perch themselves on the patio chairs and leave pecan shells to prick and poke the patooty of all who absent-mindedly sit in those chairs! They tease me in that way...

Enough of the trackin, I'm ready for the in-of-door pleasures! [Great shot of My Angel Kiss, Mom!]

My the Mom had dinner plans (out) tonight. And I picked up on the subtle clues pretty quickly.

I wouldn't say that I engaged a full pout, but maybe about a 35% one!

I mean... On the one paw, I want her here wif the me tonight and ok, all ways. And on the other, she is off to have dinner wif my Uncle Tom and Aunt Madison to... if I have eavesdropped wif the accuracy... plan a Fanksgivin Surprise.


You know how I love the Surprises, so I cut the pout back 65% from full. And once Ole Gal came home, I let bygones be bygones...

Me and the Bleu, by the way... We heard SOME fing in our yard. We have flyin squirrels, what are nocturnal... but this was some fing MUCH larger.

I fought about conductin an investigation, but decided instead to put the doggy-in-the-baff-robe frew a detailed background check.

I'm happy to report that all of the under and for that matter over cover discoveries are totally delightful wif the good lovin and suckin.

I've had a bit of discomfort today, but it has had no effect on my Zest and Happiness. One of the new traditions I love is that I get a dollop of pumpkin for dessert... even after breakfast foods. Sure, it helps wif the tummy upset after a busy day away from home, includin those I spend wif my Aunt Isphesia... but it also really soothes my froat. And makes me feel special.

The Bleu gets a dollop, too... on a counta he likes dessert and feelin special, teu! Not comin from a judgmental place... but Big Boy can also use the fiber. Just sayin. But I digress...

I'm SO grateful for Team Luke! When I have a rough day, The Love Protocol lifts My Spirit!!!

Day 870: Saturday Stuff.....

We swept well, and I awoke feelin better than I have... So let's get this party started!!!

I greet this cool crisp mornin wif all the excitement and high tail that it deserves! This, after all, is perfect weather in my book!!!

I'm ready to head in of doors, wif the hope of chowin down on the tasty breakfast foods!

Once in, belly full and back out...the Pupperazzi documents my many moods...

... accentin the silky neck and ear furs...

...watchin me watchin the Bleu...

I'm over it all ready.

Let's. Go. In.

Here's how I approach the invitation (later on)!!!

And here I am... shakin "it" off...

Me and the Bleu workin together...

... Viewin situation from opposite angles...

yep... sniff... yep... sniff... yep...

Field work is done. Time for lab work...

And while me and the Bleu bring our data in of doors for further analysis [and also a nice long and well deserved nap]... my the Mom takes a quick leave to ride wif the Cousins Zeke and Rizzi to the Farmer's Market in Hempstead!

You see, they are out to help their the Mom... my the Aunt Karen... wif the gatherin of the pecans for the Fanksgivin Day pies. Ever one is quick to point out that if I was on my game and my pecan tree had not had an awful year... this trip would not be necessary. Just sayin.

Rizzi, in particular, is happy that the trip was necessary!

He loved him some adventure! And he and the Zeke boaf loved them some of my the Mom lovin... all most as much as she loved it too! They made her feel SO very very good!!!

The goodbyes were very bitter sweet on a counta there was not enough time to be satisfied... except for the me, waitin at home to be allowed outside, and therefore... back inside again!

Here I'm asked to display "Handsome"...

... and then... 'Swoon Material'...

Just me. Just sayin.

And here I find myself chillin / behavin [might be misinterpreted as beggin /prayin] at the Wysong Anergen 32 pound box, which just happens to be half full.

I am just very food driven. And it's good for my the Mom to know that so far... neither the disease nor the treatment has impacted  my appetite!!!

Study up on this: My Handsomeness!

Day 807: A Busy Saturday

Fanks to my insistent belly, we got up really early and got our day started wif the tasty breakfast foods!

And then as soon as daylight came... Me and the Bleu took the Mom out for a walk frew our not so scenic but shnoofy filled neighborhood. And inspired by the Miss Khyra and her the Mom and their wonderful Walkin Wednesdays, we did our best to video a small portion of our walk... but it took four takes! [The Phyllis is gooooooood!!!!! She make it look effortless, and I am hear to tell you... it ain't!!!!!]

When we got home, me and the Bleu drained the water bowl a few times, panted a lot and then began to nap. The Mom started cleanin out drawers, dustin, vacuumin, moppin and airin up bicycle tires. And the squirrels launched an air strike of unripened pecan bombs onto the roof of the house, until....


I convinced the Mom to let me go outside! A minute or so later, she saw me in a catatonic state, staring at the oak tree trunk. She called my name, and a squirrel 180 degrees around the trunk scurried up the tree. The Mom began filming as quickly as she could.

 Those tenacious squirrels kept the assault up all afternoon, and here I am workin the pecan tree!

I know they're up there. If only I could climb this tree...!

I did not catch a squirrel today, and that failure didn't bother me nearly as much as my inability to negotiate the obstacle course banishment from the kitchen, as the floors were bein deep cleaned!


All in all, it's been a great day. We may not have done spectacular fings, but we did mildly adventurous fings... TOGETHER. And that's what's important!

Day 786: Squirrel Saturday

I fink it is kinda squirrely that I am trapped inside on this beautiful Saturday wif the clear and quiet skies... but the lawn dude is here, makin lots of the noise and leavin the gate open.

So any way, that made me fink of the squirrel huntin I have been preoccupied wif this week.

When the back door opens I run out like a bull out of a chute and send those little pecan fiefs scurryin!

My "little" oak tree is one of their favorite escapes. They also like to take the good stuff up there and eat in the tree house. I have found peach pits, plum seeds, walnut shells and of course bushels of pecan shells underneaf  this tree!

Yep.

Mmmmhmmmm.

This side, too.

And down here.

You see all these dark fings around the base of the tree? 

Last year's pecan crop that they have dug up and eaten.

Of course, they have also started robbin this year's crop.

I offer you Exhibit A. 

Toof marks identified.

There's also a few of these layin around. 

Will log into my Investigations Log for when I come across the naked bird.

Oh. And there is also this.
Bleu fur.

If only there was a market for this crop, me and the Mom would be rich!

 And the Bleu would never miss what we sold! Just sayin.
