Big Mess

Bubsy: Never a dull moment around here. Lots going on. Mom was making food yesterday morning when the garbage disposal and the pipe connecting the disposal decided to break and all of its contents plus a whole lotta water went pouring out the bottom of it and flowing out of the cabinet. 

Sissy: Biggest mess I’ve ever seen in my whole life.

Bubsy: Biggest mess I’ve ever seen too. It was like a river of ground up food pouring out of the cabinet. Such a big mess that mom went to wake dad up from his nap so he could help her clean. I want everyone to know I stayed right by momma’s side and assisted in the clean up too. Sissy, how did you help?

Sissy: I stayed far away. 

Bubsy: Do you feel bad for not helping? 

Sissy: Nope! If there’s a mess anywhere around, I’m out of sight. I’m way too sophisticated to help. 

Bubsy:πŸ™„ Mom is now enjoying washing dishes in the bathroom sink since the broken pipe won’t allow her to use the dishwasher. Oh and mom’s other little trouble yesterday…she broke her exercise band while working out early yesterday morning. 

Sissy: Now that was funny. Like a comedy routine in the living room. First the exercise band tore in two. Mom tossed one piece to the side then kept on going. About 30 seconds later the band ripped again. She tossed another piece to the side and kept on going with a mighty short resistance band. πŸ˜† 

Bubsy: I have to agree it was quite funny. Mom, however, kept on going. She doesn’t let anything interrupt her morning workout not even an equipment malfunction. What else is going on, Sissy?

Sissy: Mom said something about a schedule change for her at school. She started feeding us at a slightly different time today to help us adjust. 

Bubsy: I got a feeling more adjusting is coming our way with this so-called “schedule change”. Prepare yourself, sissy, for a weird week. Well, let’s wrap this up. Sundays are about adventures and as you can see in the pic below, we are going fishing. Got my brand new tackle box and we are off. Let’s go, sissy! Bye friends, see ya soon. 🐾

What stinks?

Bubsy: What stinks, sissy? Is it you?

Sissy: Um, of course it’s not me. I smell baby powder fresh all the time. And I’m not exaggerating…literally all the time. Mom sprays that baby powder cologne on me every chance she gets. Maybe you are the one that smells?

Bubsy: Thankfully, it’s not me that smells and thankfully mom resists the temptation to spray that baby powder cologne on me. I’m a boy, I need a more manly scent.

Sissy: You always smell like a cookie. πŸͺ 

Bubsy: Yep, cookie smelling cologne leftover from our pug brothers. Thanks, puggie bros! But in all seriousness mom started questioning a weird smell in her car a few days ago. Yesterday, when she put us in the car, it was quite awful of a smell. Mom started to back out of the garage with both of us safely in our car seats, then she decided to stop while still in the driveway to check out the nasty smell. She had picked up groceries two days prior and decided to see if a grocery item accidentally got left in the car. Sure enough, as she looked behind sissy’s car seat there was some deli meat that never got taken inside when the parents took in the groceries two days prior. Goodness me, it smelled BAD! 

Sissy: Had to hold my paws over my nose during that car ride. 

Bubsy: I would like to note that the awful smell of spoiling deli meat was found behind your car seat…so technically you were the smelly one. πŸ˜‰πŸ˜†

Sissy: Not funny! It wasn’t me that smelled it was just the meat that unfortunately slipped out of the grocery bag and behind my car seat. 

Bubsy: So mom complained for two days about this smell before it was discovered. Now dad has done nothing but complain about how her car still smells. πŸ™„πŸ™ˆ Oh geez! 

Sissy: Knowing mom she will have the car smelling much better next time we go for a ride in it. I think she went out and bought some small spaces room fragrances.

Bubsy: Yep, and next dad will be complaining about that too. He hates those room fragrances.πŸ‘ƒ Oh well, anything is better than the smell of spoiling deli meat….Time to wrap this up…Wishing everyone a beautiful new week! In the pic below, one of us is a little “stinker” and one of us always “bee-haves”! 🦨 🐝 You can guess which one of us is the true little stinker, things might not be as they appear in the pic.πŸ˜† Perhaps the toys should be reversed!πŸ˜‰

The Unexpected

Bubsy: It was a big movie night in our house last night. Which means what sissy?

Sissy: We get a better treat then usual. 

Bubsy: Well yeah, I guess that happened too. But I was more into the snuggle time. Movie night in my world means snuggle time with momma. 

Sissy: You are right. The snuggle was real last night. I snuggled with mom and a little with dad too. I like to position myself between the parents. πŸ˜‰ Make room for me! 

Bubsy: I prefer to solely be on mom’s lap. I’m a momma’s boy! 

Sissy: And mom seems to spoil you extra. πŸ™„

Bubsy: Oh sissy, that’s not true. You get spoiled just as much. Hey, did you like that unexpected rain storm this morning?

Sissy: That came out of nowhere. We were too far from home to go back early. So we were stuck dealing with the rain. Worst part was that unexpected rainstorm caused us to get unexpected baths. 

Bubsy: At least we smell fresh and clean now. And we are ready to start the new week. Always a big job getting these parents of ours thru the week. They need us daily to get them motivated. πŸ€—

Sissy: First things first….let’s go have a Sunday evening with mom and dad. Bye for now people out there. 🐢

The Adjustment

Bubsy: This was a big week. A big week of adjustment. For the first time ever mom has become the breadwinner of the family.

Sissy: Say what? Mom won some bread? How did she win bread? 

Bubsy: Bread as in dough as in money!πŸ’° 

Sissy: Wait, so mom won money? Where’s my part of the winnings? 

Bubsy: πŸ™ˆ Oh dear sissy! You don’t get it. Mom is the only one going to work now and dad is suddenly a stay at home dog dad. Mom is the breadwinner, it’s a term. 

Sissy: Well I did notice he never seemed to leave the house this week. πŸ™„ We got no alone time to rule the house. 

Bubsy: Yep, big adjustment. And mom and dad are trying to figure out the scheduling of all this. Because you know dad needs his beauty sleep. But mom needs to get up early. 

Sissy: Seems like even I know which one of them has a better reason for accidentally disturbing the other one. πŸ˜‰ 

Bubsy: Sissy, this should be interesting to see how long all this lasts. 

Sissy: Yep, we shall see how long mom maintains being the winner of the bread. πŸ₯–πŸ˜‰

Bubsy: Speaking of bread…let’s talk the capital city for awesome bread and cheese…Paris! I’ve been told there’s nothing like a French baguette and fresh cheese in that part of the world so allow me to acknowledge one of my mom’s fave cities…Paris! Happy Bastille day France! πŸ‡«πŸ‡· Yes, I know I’m one day late. Bastille day is July 14th. But better late then never.πŸ˜‰

Beauty Sleep

Bubsy: Yesterday mom took us all over town trying to hunt down a harness that will fit sissy. OMDogness! It took forever. And sissy tried on so many. I thought by the time we were done the seasons had changed and Christmas was arriving.πŸŽ„ 

Sissy: I thought I was going to lose my ever loving mind with all the trying on of harnesses. I walked out of nearly all of them. And news bulletin….the “escape free” style, I escaped from. πŸ˜‰ 

Bubsy: The problem is the harnesses small dogs like sissy need to wear have velcro to help hold the dog in the harness. But sissy doesn’t do velcro. 

Sissy: That’s right, no velcro for me. My hair is too long and would get caught in it. Plus that sound of the velcro would cause me to climb the walls. 

Bubsy: You are crazy enough already. Nothing else needed to make you crazier. But the shopping trip wasn’t a total waste. Came home with a unicorn pool float. Score! I’ll be in the pool floating around later. πŸ¦„ 

Sissy: Speaking of crazy, I thought mom and dad were going to flip their lids last night at about 3:00 AM. There was a random beeping noise every few minutes. They were going crazy trying to figure out which smoke detector was beeping. I was just praying they’d hurry up because I needed to get back to bed and get my beauty sleep. 😴 

Bubsy: Your beauty sleep?

Sissy: Yes big bro, I need my beauty sleep. All this gorgeousness doesn’t happen on a limited amount of sleep. 

Bubsy: I’m speechless right now, sissy. Just speechless. 😢…I guess lets end this for today so you can go get caught up on your beauty sleep. πŸ˜†πŸ™„πŸ˜΄

Sissy: Good idea! I’m going to go take a nap. 

Bubsy: And I’m heading to the pool! Catch ya later. πŸ¦„

Happy 4th of July


Bubsy: I think the sign behind us is spelled wrong. Shouldn’t it read “Sweet Landon of Liberty”? πŸ˜†πŸ—½Just kidding!  

Sissy: I like the joke. I laughed, big bro! 🀣

Bubsy: Thanks sissy! Now let’s talk about our plans for the day. Relax some, smell the bbq the humans are going to enjoy and then go see fireworks! Are you excited for today?

Sissy: I am excited! Nothing like smelling a Texas bbq. You can literally smell brisket all day long every time you walk outside.   

Bubsy: Yeah, but we won’t get to sample any of that. So I’m all about the fireworks. We’ve gotten used to seeing and hearing them a lot since we live near a stadium. 

Sissy: I look forward to fireworks too…oh and ice cream. I saw mom making ice cream for us early this morning. 

Bubsy: Really, you did? I didn’t see her making ice cream. 

Sissy: You were busy outside. I, of course have to protect my luscious locks from this new heat wave so I stay indoors a lot. 

Bubsy: Wishing everyone a beautiful Fourth! May you enjoy: BBQ, ice cream, and fireworks! At least one of those. πŸ˜‰πŸ¦πŸŽ†  Happy Birthday America! 247 years young!

O Canada

Bubsy: So sissy were you happy being a Canadian pup for a day yesterday?

Sissy: Not especially, I’m kind of like the people that attended the party at our house…it was weird! We are all Americans. Yet mom decides to throw a Canada themed bday party for our dad. Weird! I went to bed in America. And woke up to a Canadian invasion.

Bubsy: You’re so dramatic! It was just some festive decorations not an invasion. 

Sissy: Call it what you want. It was weird to see. Plus the humans had to eat a Canadian inspired meal. Glad we didn’t have to eat that. 

Bubsy: Oh sissy, it was inspired by Canada but the food was really just centered around the colors of the Canada flag. Lots of red foods and white foods. Still all American type of foods. 

Sissy: Maybe you’re right. At least mom didn’t serve moose. That would be scary. 🫎😱

Bubsy: I think mom was going for something unique and different. Hoping people could embrace it. Not everyone did, some had a few negative comments. But oh well, mom will try again next time and hope for a better result with more excitement from the party goers.

Sissy: Lots of people are hard to please…kind of like me. πŸ˜‰ 

Bubsy: Hold up, let’s be clear. Mom’s party she hosted yesterday for dad was a success. It’s just that there was confusion and reluctancy to truly embrace the party theme. 

Sissy: The party theme would’ve been better received in Seattle or somewhere more northern. This is Texas. Texas is very….you know….Texas! All about the red, white, and the blue!! ❤️πŸ€πŸ’™

Bubsy: That being said, onto the next celebration…America’s bday is coming fast. We will see you all in a special holiday post come Tuesday! Puppy hugs to all until then! πŸ€— 

 Me looking and wondering why it’s a Canadian flag behind me. πŸ˜†

 Me rolling with the theme! Gotta embrace the uniqueness and have fun! 

 Me posing and sissy avoiding the camera…what else is new. πŸ™„

 Me still posing and sissy finally looking up…Notice she isn’t dressed. She stripped before the pic could be taken. She’s a canine nudist. 🫣😬
