Starting the New Year off slowly around here ...

My mom and dad have "the crud" whatever that is.  Neither of them feel very good and you should hear the bargaining going on for who is going to go to the pharmacy for more Nyquil.  I would be RICH if they let me drive. 

Anywoof, while they are lounging, I thought I would show you one of my favorite things from Christmas.  My cousins came to visit, and mom's office got turned into a bunk room.  Look at all the beds for moi!!!!  I had the pick of them, I tell you!!!  All I had to do was nudge a cousin over  totally waking them up to make room for me, and voila -- EPIK cousin comfort.  Being the equal opportunity pupper that I am, during the night I spent a little time waking up with each of them.  When my dad came in to give me my breakfast and take me out before he left for work, I declined his kind offer to totally mess up my morning and decided to sleep until the kids got up.  IT WAS AWESOME!!! 


And, mom wanted me to show you this gift that we got (thanks, favorite aunties!)  Look at these cute chocolates.  They are hersheys nougats covered with cute dog accoutrements (BIG word alert!!)  Yes, there is one missing.  There was another missing shortly after that photo was taken.  I did NOT get to try one, which I thought was pretty crummy since the only reason SHE got dog themed anything was because I decided to grace her life with my presence, but SHE wasn't going for it.  They are made by a company called haute and cool at www.hauteandcool.com if you want to make a note for next year.  I don't have a clue who it is behind these, and wasn't compensated in any way.  Dang it.



Lastly, some of you have been talking about resolutions.  The most AWESOME thing about mom feeling so puny is that all she wants is to be able to breath out of her nose again.  So, looks like we're skipping it this year, thank heavens.  She did get a fit bit, work out clothes, etc, so I think the universe is trying to tell her something.  We'll see what she does with that -- hopefully it involves longer walks for moi.  Just saying.

Happy New Year,  puppers.  We'll be back when everybody feels a bit better!

  2. my mommas trunk is still out of order too, hope the new year is strong enough to chase that flu- and cold-gremlins away. Your mom got interesting things, I'm sure that means more and longer walks with you. I've got the short end of the stick, first Santa brought me tons of food and now my momma comdemned me to a diet...
