The Squirrel wears a scarf

Well here it is January 2011 and I feel in great need of a nap!  Christmas seems like a blur, it could have been just a strange dream.  The festivities started on the 18th when the first Traveler showed up.  Uncle Erich from SF.   First I didn't like him but since he didn't steel any of my spot light and Dabby and Marme seemed determined to have me like him, slowly I changed my mind.   The truth is he was fun to have around, he's a great big, tough, play toy like Dabby.

Marme proved just how much she likes repetition; while the travelers were here, multiple times I heard the following from her:
1.  Stay clear of Grannie when she is up! (She uses a walker and I like to maneuver at high speeds between the legs of the walker and Grannie's legs.)  Can anyone tell me why Grannie stops in doorways?
2.  Don't bump Grandpa when he is walking, getting up, getting down or standing still.   He fell while he was here but I wasn't around, lucky for me!   He does have a red cane which is pretty cool.  At first I thought it was a chew toy.
3.  No jumping in Miss Kitty's lap, she doesn't wear play clothes.  Boy did she miss out.

They need to loosen up they are missing all the fun.  They do drop lots of food at the table and nobody told me not to eat it, I'm helping hehehe.

Best gift... Santa left a squirrel in one of my stockings -oh I got two stockings I guess cause I'm that good.  I got two new chew toys, I love chew toys.   This year Aunt Reeve gave me a scarf, last year it was a t-shirt.  First chance I had I chewed it into two pieces hehehe.  Marme tied the scarf around the squirrels neck and that's okay with me.

First I chewed off the squirrels paws and then his face but he still has a really cool tail with a scarf!

ps -if you look closely in the pictures you can see the red cane and walker

Merry Christmas????

 

Bahumbug!  

Holiday's who needs them.  

My People go wacko, really annoying.  Do yours?  They "Party" lots but never at home.    Marme comes home with shopping bags saying HO HO HO, and adds "there's something in here for you Bodhi" but doesn't give it to me, argggggg.   They move furniture so they can bring in a tree -what's up with that?  It isn't one I've marked or will for that matter.  When I go up to the tree I get the evil eye from My People, well only Dabby.  Oh Marme and Dabby are My People.  Aunt Reeve knows the evil eye cause she was raised by My People.  She told me always move away when you see the evil eye.  Marme just told me the Travelers are coming back and an additional Traveler is coming from SF, oh where will I sleep.  My People are so excited they really like Christmas and all this stuff:(  Marme says she's going to take me to see the Hemby Bridge Christmas lights.  Why?  Then there is the Holiday Food (truth) I like it.   One other thing I like, Aunt Reeve always brings me a present, like homemade peanut butter cookies or a chew toy.  Right now I'm feeling more Bahumbug than Mirth, I'll let you know how the Holiday turns out.

 

Blindsided Jump

I need to go on a walk, now!

Travelers have invaded my home.  They are in Mom and Dad's bed.  Mom and Dad aren't sleeping together but Aunt Reeve and Mom are???  Dad is sleeping in Aunt Reeve's old bed.  Last night Mom got up in the middle of the night and slept in her recliner.  That's the first time I've seen her in it since the travelers came.  When I bark one of the travelers clutches her chest and says "Good Lord", she calls me that every time I bark, and Dad never tells her my name is Bodhi.   I'm told no running, no barking, no jumping.  The travelers don't want me to have table scraps, it's too good for a dog, what(?)   I'm not a dog because I run, bark, jump and eat table scraps.  It is because I run, bark, jump and eat table scraps that I'm a dog.   I'm so confused I don't know where to sit or sleep!  If the travelers don't leave soon I feel a blindsided jump coming on.  We had dinner guests for Turkey (mmmmmm) they came they ate they left, great guests.  The travelers came ate and stayed.   Aunt Reeve eventually escaped and didn't take me with her, no fair!  Well I'm thankful for walks, stolen table scraps, perfect placed jumps and when life returns to normal! 
FYI people don't overstay your welcome, it totally disrupts a dog's life.

A new blog for the people

It seems many people are all about blogging these days and I have a good bit to say to people, mostly about my people.  

Repetition is central with them.  

I will lick my lips with great gusto; this means food -thank you!  

I'm real good with sounds, Mom and Dad know this about me.  They tell me when people are coming to visit and I can hear their car turn the corner.  When my Aunt comes they say  "Reeve is coming, Reeve is coming, Reeve is coming" see more repetition.  Gotta run my Aunt Reeve is in the driveway.  

More Later, 

I'm hungry!
