Dezi in stroller outside
Mmmmmmmm smell dat furesh air.

 

Mommy it’s so purretty today, can we go fur a stroll later?

Dezi it’s time to write your blog post. It’s finally Friday dear, and yes, we’ll go for a stroll later.

Oh mommy today be da last day on da 3 day quote challenge. Me has a really good one fur today. 

You do? Well you need to tell everyone the rules of the challenge first honey.

Okay. Me also wants to thank da Menagerie Mom from Four Legged Furballs. Here’s da rules: 

1. Post fur 3 consecutive days

2. Choose and share 1 to 3 quotes each day

3. Challenge 3 bloggers each day

So there ya’ have it. As we have dun fur da last 2 days, we’s leavin’ da challenge open fur anypawdy who wuld like to do it. Just follow da rules and start quotin’. 

 

Yesfurday when mommy and me were out and ‘bout after hers doctors pointment we were talkin’ ‘bout all da quotes one uses in a day. Lots of us use quotes in our normal everyday language dat we don’t give a second though ‘bout. We don’t know when they started or who actually coined them. You know da kind, mommys are famous fur sayin’ to their daughters, “Beauty is in da eye of da beholder.” And then there’s da one, “if ______________ jumped off a bridge would you want to as well?” Anyways, you get da idea. Mommy uses a lot of them. Since we began writin’ mommy’s had to be very careful ‘bout “givin’ credit where credit’s due.”  Anyways, me’s quote fur today is:

 

“Adopt Don’t Shop” 

 

We searched high and low fur da name of da purrson respawnsible fur this quote and came up empty. It  was furst used as a campaign slogan to get more peeps to adopt shelter and rescue animals stead of buyin’ from breeders. Today, it’s almost as pawpular as sum of those old conversational quotes we talked ‘bout earlier.  So dat wraps up our 3 day quote challenge. This has been fun.

Dezi and Lexi in a red star frame, have a good weekend

Me has to go now, you heard mommy purromise to take me fur a stroll later, so me has to get ready. As we do every Furiday, we’s joinin’ Rascal and Rocco fur da Pet Parade Blog Hop.

 

Do you have a purrticular quote you use a lot in your everyday conversations?

 

Till da next time………………………………………….Be Blest!!!

Ants In Me Pantaloons

Well!!! Me Never!!!! Me has no idea what mommy is talkin’ ‘bout, ants in me pantaloons. Me dusn’t have pantaloons, me has bloomers. And there’s no ants there fur sure. Meez a very clean girly and since switchin’ to da freeze dried raw noms me hasn’t had any bloomer stinkies dat required cleanin’. So me dusn’t know why mommy finks me has ants. As a matter of fact, me hasn’t had any bugs since those nasty worms when me was a baby. So there, mommy, wha’d’ya’ say to dat?  

 

Dezi playing with a nip paper and cleaning her paw
This is a gweat piece of nip paper Ali brought fur sis Lexi and me.

You’re right sweety, you haven’t had any bugs since those nasty worms when you were a baby. And you are very clean and there’s been no accidents since switching your noms. But baby, ants in your pants is what we humans say when someone can’t sit still or calm down. And you have for sure been “antsy” lately. I know it’s been storming and raining and cold and gray outside a lot lately, but you’re about to drive me nuts. lol  

 

Me dusn’t even know where nuts is mommy. And me only drives you to da pawtty box room and da kitchen.  

 

Dezi biting on a piece of paper
Me dusn’t have ants, meez just bored.

Oh Dezi you still habz so much to learn. Nutz ain’t a place sissyfur, it’z a state of mind. 

 

A state of mind sissy? Well me didn’t learn to drive dat, did me? Da only thing mommy taught me to drive was da wheelchair. When did we learn to drive a state of mind?  

 

Dezi in stroller outside
Me luvs to go fur strolls wiff mommy.

Well Dezi dat’z not sumfin you learn to “drive”, it’s juzt sumfin’ you habz da ability to do frum da minit youz born. And you waz born wiff a lot of it. MOL  

 

Whew Me thought me missed a lesson or sumfin’. So me was born wiff an extra talent, huh? 

 

Dezi in stroller outside
What’s dat? Me sees a birdy.

(Lexi puts a paw on her head and then shakes her head) Yep Dezi you waz born wiff an extra talent alright, quite a few fur dat matter.  

 

Aaaaaaw Fank you sissy. Anyways, ants aside, da sun came out and it warmed up a bit yesfurday fur da furst and last time in a while. Me was so excited dat me was meweekin’ at mommy all meownin’. Me was playin’ wiff every toy we have and runnin’ up and down da cat tree and up and down from mommy’s lap every few minutes tellin’ her to look at da purretty day. After ‘bout da levinty thousand meweek, mommy decided to take me fur a stroll. Ah da sweet furesh air was divine. Me even heard sum birdies singin’. And we met a new neighbor and hers daughter who also be cat luvvers. They each have a rescued furry purrer in their house. And based on what they was sayin’ they spoil their kitties too. Mommy sez me be spoiled rotten, but me knows dat can’t be true cuz me dusn’t stink. Now dat garbage disposal was rotten, but me smells like a purretty girly shuld smell. Me so enjoyed meez stroll and alone time wiff mommy. It’s always nice when mommy takes da time to have sum one on one time wiff sissy and me. Mommy kuldn’t see da camera display very good cuz of all dat sunshine, but me hopes you enjoyed meez strollin’ fotos today, me sure did enjoy da purrocess of takin’ ’em. Gotta go now, da sun is here today fur da last day in a while accotdin’ to da furcast, so me has to try to get mommy to take me fur another stroll. MOL  Me dusn’t have ants in meez pantaloons but me duz wanna enjoy da nice weather while it’s here. 

 

Dezi in stroller outside

I even got to lay on it a while till Lexi came out and Dezi told me I could lay anywhere else, but that if her sissy wanted da lounger I should give it to her. They have so many pawsum places to lay I didn’t mind giving it to Lexi. They have lots of great toys to play with and their mommy grows them grass all the time.

On The Road

Meowllo everypawdy hope yous all plannin’ a pawsum weekend. Weez still restin’ up here. MOL But we purromised to tell you all ‘bout da dwivin’ pawrt of our twip to BlogPaws so dat’s zactly what weez gunna do. And weez also gunna join up wiff Rascal and Rocco fur da Pet Pawade Blog Hop. So anyways, as you all know we was meetin’ up wiff our fellow Oklahoma bloggers fwum Angel Prancer Pie and goin’ on to Nashville wiff them. They live bout a 4 hour dwive fwum us and wanted to leave early Fursday meownin’. So Ms. Tonya was pawsum enuff to put us up in a local motel Wednesday night so we wuld all be there and weady to leave furst fing Fursday meownin’.

 dw4151

We wasn’t in any rush to get off Wednesday, but since it was mommys birffday she had planned on us leavin’ wound 1 dat day so weez kuld get there and get a good nights sleep. And she wanted to pick up a bite to eat to celebwate. But as usual, we was late getting’ off. And when mommy twied to load us up neevew of us wanted any pawrt of dat. Sis Lexi gave mommy da “I’z not wanna go to da VET” hiss, and me followed suit. But mommy didn’t pay any attention to eevew of us and loaded us up anyways. And then furty miles fwum home we found closed roads and detours. You all member da floodin’ we got duwin’ da mumff of May wight? Well our stweet had been closed most of da mumff, and now so was da innewstate. So we had to detour almost immediately. And zactly what mommy didn’t want to happen, is what happened. Pig trails here we come. Finally 3 hours later we was half way to our destination and da rains fell. And they fell so stwong dat mommy kuldn’t even see out da fwunt window. Fankfully since mommy didn’t know what we might run into she had made us stay in da stwoller so we wasn’t out runnin’ wound da car. Well we finally awwived at our destination and Ms. Tonya gave us diwections so we kuld get into our room and settled fur da night. All in and mommy wealized she didn’t have anyfin’ to dwink, so she was leavin’ out to find a store and…there was Ms. Tonya. They hugged and squealed and exchanged “good to finally meet ya’s,” and they visited a bit and then we were all callin’ it a night. 

 dw4152

Bwight and early da next meownin’ mommy packed us up again so we kuld head out to Nashville. We all got loaded up and our car went to Ms. Tonya’s and we was off.  Guess we shulda figgered out by then we wasn’t goin’ to da VET, but weez just kuldn’t be sure so we was still givin’ mommy da “don’t wanna go” hiss. When we finally hit da highway mommy opened da stwoller so we kuld get out and use da pawdee box and get a dwink or snack ifin we wanted. By this time we was actin’ like childwen mommy sez and when me wuld touch Lexi or she wuld touch me we hissed to let mommy know dat da udder was “touchin’” us. MOL And yes, da pawdee box wus in da floor board and mommy had a syringe and bottle of water fur dwinks and sum snacks in hers purrse. Mommy sez she can’t make dat long of a twip wiffout needin all of those fings so she dusn’t spect us to eevew. We wasn’t too faw down da highway when me had to use da pawdee box and stink da car up. So we just pulled over and mommy scooped out da offendin’ “deed” and fwu it out. We was off again. Udder than a few hisses back and forff we didn’t have much to say duwin’ da twip. But mommy and Ms. Tonya and Ms. Samantha had purrlenty to talk ‘bout. They chatted most of da way. And nopawdy had to stop, get out and wait on us fur pawdee box bweaks, we just went when we needed too and mommy helped lift us back out.

Me did a lot of out da window watchin’ on da twip there, and sissy did a lot of nappin’. On da way home weez left early again, only this time sis Lexi did a lot of out da window watchin’ and me did da nappin’. Mommy kept noddin’ off on da way home like me. But when da hoomans stawrted talkin’ ‘bout getting’ closer to home sissy had to pipe in every once in a while and give ‘em hers 2 cents worff. Again, Ms. Tonya was so kind and let us stay da night so we kuld get up da next day and get on da road all rested up. And fank catness she did, cuz it had stowmed da whole time we was gone and there was even more roads closed comin’ back.

dw4221
I’z got to uze da pawdee box, ‘skuze me.

OMC we got ‘bout an hour and a half fwum home and pawently da lake had flooded anudder major highway. We was detoured to Texas, da state, not a town. We almost dwopped in fur a visit awnty Ann. MOL Anyways, we got down to da furst town and wealized they was gunna detour us all da way to Dallas, so we turned wound and came back up to Oklahoma. Least these pig trails awe ones we know. MOL On da way down one of da little two lane weally one lane pig twails we saw tons of peeps pulled off da side of da road wiff their fishin’ poles. No, these places awe not fishin’ holes. And till May they were all dwy as a desert. But da rains had filled in every empty space wiff little ponds and lakes and batches of water; and pawently fish. Rednecks, give us a flood and we go fishin’. Anyways, weez finally got ‘bout 30 minutes fwum home and we kuld feel mommys ‘citement and weez stawrted singin’ da hallelujah chorus. When we finally got home we all so exhausted mommy barely got da car unloaded and showered and we all cwashed.  We were so glad to be home. But you know what? We also wished dat BlogPaws had lasted even longer. Ifin we hadn’t had so much fun we wuldn’t have been so tired. It was cwazy busy, goin’, goin’, goin’, but we luvved every minute of it. And since bein’ back, sis Lexi has been actin’ like a kitten again. Weez’ll tell ya’ more ‘bout dat in future posties.
