FRANKLIN FRIDAY: WE GOTS KISSMAS LIGHTS!

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.



 We have new lights, too. Human Brother gots lights that can go outdoors so he put them on the house. They are sooooooo pretty.




Here's me at the front door. I help by watching. When I sound the alarm, Penlapee joins me. We say so when a human person and a human dog walk by. We talk about cats, too. I don't like cats. Mom thinks they're nice. I don't know why.


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.

  1. 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?

    1. Yeah, I had to poop in the house a couple times when I was sick. Penlapee poops when she's scared.

    1. No, no, no, Mistress Maddie. I'm a very good dog and I wouldn't do such a thing.

  6. My 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!

    1. A 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.

  8. You 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.

    1. Merry 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.

  9. I'm going to assume your Christmas tree shot was deliberately out-of-focus because you wanted to be artsy. :)

    Why 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!

    1. 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.

  12. I 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.

    1. We can still be friends if you keep the cats inside your house. Don't bring them to visit me.

      Love,
