It's Raining Christmas CHORES

 I am such a BUSY Christmas PUG. I have so so much to do in the next TEN days! TEN DAYS?!?!?!
You see, when you volunteer to be one of Santa's Elves, well this is IT! D-Day (or C-Day as we call it).

Here is what I have on my TODO list today. And keep in mind, this is just a smidgen of what needs to be done.

1. Clean and decorate the rooms downstairs that have NOT yet been decorated. They kind of have that LIVED IN vibe and that is NOT what we want when guests arrive on Dec 24
2. RE-clean the one room that IS decorated. It, too, has a lived in feel
3. Make a list for gift-giving
4. Check it TWICE! Once will just not do
5. Plan our menu for Christmas Eve dinner. I will be hosting Lulu, Tiffy, and, hopefully, Fezzik. Who knows, maybe a few other FURiends, too? This is something that cannot be too casually approached as we all have diet restrictions and FAVORITE foods
6. STOP hyper-ventilating
7. Scoop POOP. The yard gets a once over weekly, IF Mommy and I are on our game. But we MOST ASSUREDLY pick up before guests
8. Make Christmas COOKIES for Santa, Reindeer Cnacks for Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Blitzen, Comet, Cupid, Donner (Donder) and Vixen AND RUDOLPH!
9. WRAP presents. This needs to be done by Dec 20 meaning I have only a few days to do that
10. Make sure my Christmas jammies are clean and ready to DON on Christmas EVE

As you can tell, I am gonna be a busy busy ELF. Hmmmm. Maybe I should resign my ELF COMMISSION and sign on as a reindeer? Then I only have to work on Christmas EVE and I can delegate all this other stuff to Molly, the NEW Christmas Elf (by order of Noodles).

Whatdya think about calling myself

Noodles the PUG-nosed Reindeer?

Santa, Dear Santa, Here is a List of the FEW Things I Really WANT for Christmas

Lots of puppers ask me “Noodles! What do you want for Christmas?” Well, if I had MY way, my list would be VAST. But I don’t. I was told by my Mommys to keep it short – keep it simple. Okay. Okay. I can do that THIS TIME.

Luckily I have spent a lot of time REVIEWING products (and by that I mean TREATS) and places for this blog. This gives me the chance to CHECK OUT a lot of things perhaps my Mommys would NEVER think of (being HUMAN and all). I have to admit I mostly like everything EATABLE and I am not so adverse to clothes. I draw the line at stuff like ELECTRIFIED collars and fences, CAR restraints, and barbed ANYTHING.

That said, there are a lot of less tangible things that I think I would like for Christmas. After all, my BIG ROOM (pen) is getting a little crowded with Molly and all of our combined toys and outfits nestled within. So while writing this list, I attempted to think OUTTA THE CHRISTMAS BOX and pick more conscientiously.

So here it is, for your LISTING pleasure, my Christmas 2014 WANTS:

• Tropiclean Treats and water refresher
• Woodrow Wear Socks made to wear on long walks
• A trip to the beach - ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
• Anything I want from Biscuits. . . What? I can’t ask for something that vague? Well, okaaaaaaaaaay. . . a new kimono OR my choice from the treat jars
• A new GRANDE bed from PetSmart because SOMECAT peed on the old one and it DID not survive the washing
• A year supply of HALO Spot’s Stew because it is yummy
• For all the pets in the HSSV (shelter) to find forever homes (just not MINE)
• ANYTHING from Pugs in the Kitchen – the YUMMIEST SNACKS IN THE WORLD
• A new leash in some color OTHER than black. My Mommy is so picky she can’t DECIDE on a color so I am stuck with BLACK. Not cool for dainty flower NOODLES
• For all my BLOGVILLE, Google+, Wordpress, FB, Twitter, and Pinterest FURiends to have the

HAPPIEST HOLIDAYS EVER

I don’t think THAT’S asking too much, do you?
