Hi! Hi Hi Hi! Hi! It's me! It's me! Its memememememe! Franklin, the Bordernese. For Kissmas, let's have a cheese ball, if you please.
I don't have no balls, but that's okay. I don't need 'em. Do you have balls? I've noticed Mom doesn't have any. Maybe Human Brother does, but I've never seen him in the shower.
That's enough ball talk. I wanna show you Kissmas lights at our house. I have to write today because Santa Paws will be here soon. Then I'll be busy with new toys and treats and fun stuff to do. I wonder if Mom will bake peanut butter doggy biscuits. Those are my favorite food. We always put some out for Santa Paws.
Wow! It's hard for me to think straight when I know Santa Paws will be here next week.
Did you know Penlapee pooped in the living room when it thundered a few days ago? snicker snort That Penlapee.
Here's our Kissmas tree in the living room. Good thing Penlapee didn't poop on that. We need the tree so Santa can put our presents underneath it. It's kinda hard to see in pictures. I think I could take better pictures than Mom does, but she says I can't use the camera because I don't have posable thums. I don't know what that means. I tried to pose Mom's thums and it didn't work.
Okay! Okay! Okay! Now you've seen our lights so go home. Go back to your home or me and Penlapee will bark at you.
Okay. I love you. Bye-bye.
Ask your mom about this, Franklin. I'm currently reading The Song of the Lark, Willa Cather, 1915. I'm seeing all contractions written as would n't, could n't, should n't, etc. Can she sometime write a little history of when the space between d and n elided?
ReplyDeleteI'll ask her, ma'am. I bet she'll do it. You're one of her favorite peoples.
DeleteThank You so much for the tour, love the Christmas lights and sometimes telling on Penlapee. The front of your home is so pretty, you can look out and bark at intruders.
ReplyDeleteYou both are so pretty and handsome and have a goodest Mum.
cheers, x
Everything is extra pretty for Kissmas!
DeleteLove the Christmas lights, and poop happens!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I had to poop in the house a couple times when I was sick. Penlapee poops when she's scared.
Deletecats are nice creatures, franklin. I have 3 rescue cats.
ReplyDeleteyou certainly are a handsome boy; hope santa paws brings you some goodies! and you have a lovely forever home too!
Please don't send those cats to visit me!
DeleteFranklin, because of the indoor tree you don't get confused do you, and left a leg?
ReplyDeleteNo, no, no, Mistress Maddie. I'm a very good dog and I wouldn't do such a thing.
DeleteMy dear friend's 3-year-old granddaughter has figured out how to phone her. She calls throughout the day and says, "I love you bye!" Franklin made me smile at thought again. Oh that Christmas tree shot! If that's what posable thums do, just give the camera to Franklin!
ReplyDeleteMom isn't much of a phodographer.
DeleteCats are really nice if you don't bark at them or chase them and such. The light are beautiful!! Enjoy your presents. Won't be long now. :)
ReplyDeleteA cat walked into our house once when the backdoor was open. I tried to chase it out, and it hid under Mom's shelves. That cat was a pain in the butt.
DeleteYou speak the cutest doggie English. I love the way you spell you sister's name. Merry Christmas to you both, and to mom as well.
ReplyDeleteMerry Kissmas! Merry Kissmas! I know how to say and spell Penlapee's real name, but I like making her mad by saying and spelling it wrong.
DeleteI'm going to assume your Christmas tree shot was deliberately out-of-focus because you wanted to be artsy. :)
ReplyDeleteWhy do dogs LOVE cheese so much? Olga would collapse in ecstasy if I have her a cheese ball. What a great little Florida house you have!
Mom is an artsy fartsy type. She tried, anyway. Cheese is just one of the bestest tasting things in the world. I also like to eat dirt in the backyard.
DeleteHi Franklin - well done on being such a clever looker-after dog ... so helpful all round. Love the Christmas lights ... fun to see - stay safe and enjoy the season - Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks! Thanks! Merry Kissmas to you!
DeleteHow festive. That last picture is darling.
ReplyDeleteMom can usually get good pictures of me because I'm adorable.
DeleteI love your posts, Franklin. Your home looks very festive! Don't make fun of poor Penlapee for pooping on the floor. We've all been there.
ReplyDeleteOkay. I won't say anything else about it.
DeleteI enjoyed this post it made me smile
ReplyDeleteThat makes me happy! I'm a happy dog!
DeleteOh, Franklin, I so love your posts! And your lights. Very festive! We have cats in our house. Two of them. I hope we can still be friends :)
ReplyDeleteWe can still be friends if you keep the cats inside your house. Don't bring them to visit me.
DeleteLove,
Janie
