#Beinglazy on a Friday!

I realize it is AFTERNOON already and I have accomplished ZIPPITY DO DAH! I meant well, I really did. But what with staying up WAY past my bedtime cheering on the Olympians AND my other job of LAP SITTING. . . well I just got sidetracked from my work.

What better day to be lazy than the DAY before the weekend. I mean. . . it ushers in the weekend which begs for a lazy day or two. And it is the END of a long work week so it means we are extra tired. 

But then, what's to stop us from being lazy on Monday because it is after the END of the weekend? And we are extra tired on Mondays (admit it, you are) because of all the FUN we had on the weekend. Or if we didn't have fun, we are tired from all the CHORES and HOUSEWORK that we all put off until the weekend because we are too busy during the week.

It is a dizzying rollercoaster and I am just not gonna deal with it today. Besides, I don't really have to justify my actions because, well . . .  I'M A PUG.

What ever you do this weekend, take some time out to refresh, relax and reflect. Monday is just a couple of sleeps away.

Oh. . . What Have We Here? It's From CHEWY!!!!!

Ignore my Mommy #2's feet and LOOK at WHAT'S behind us!

So the BACKSTORY is, we were going ballistic at the door, We often do. See, if you look behind us you will see this small window. The CLEAR part of the design is just about eye-level for Molly and Me so we frequently stand there and alert Mommy to danger. THERE IS A LOT OF POTENTIAL DANGER in this world, you know.

On this particular day we spotted our FAVORITE stranger - the FEDEX man who brings the CHEWY.COM boxes. And we KNEW what it was too - our selections from the AUGUST NEWSLETTER to test and then to write a review.

Look Molly! Our August selection is here! That was FAST!

We decided on a couple of things for DOGS and one for CATS. Molly and I are reviewing Nature's Variety Instinct Raw Market dehydrated food. Sounds good to us. And if you recall, we loved loved loved Nature's Variety Raw Boost - so we thought WHY NOT? It could be a win win. We also ordered some POOP BAGS - Frisco brand. Think back a while ago when we got a GOODIE BOX from Chewy.com just for being US? Well it included a FRISCO poop bag dispenser and a roll of bags. We LOVE it. Although you may not be aware of it, poop bag holders DO NOT last forever. In our short lives we have gone through close to 5 of them. So we were anxious to try out the FRISCO brand. We cannot wait to tell you what we find out about the bags,

Chewy.com WE LOVE YOU

Sunshine the Cat passed up a couple of months of Chewy.com reviews because she couldn't find anything appealing to her. But this time she did. She totally BEGGED to try the Tiki Cat Aloha Friend meal in a pouch. The last time she reviewed Tiki Cat food she really liked it - to the point she would not EAT ANYTHING ELSE! So she decided to give it a try. Sunshine is more of a CHICKEN on the ground cat rather than a CHICKEN of the sea kind. And these are all FISH based meals. But she said she would TOUGH it out because Tiki Cat is a brand she DIGS.

It's Cat in the BOX not Cat in the HAT

We will do our reviews NEXT week so we can get a weekend more of testing done. This is always so exciting for us because it means we get to try new things that normally we might not consider.

In the meantime, we are continuing our Olympics and Pawlympics cheering. We really enjoyed the gymnastics and beach volleyball. Now the track is wow-ing us. Imagine the US women's 100m hurdles taking Gold, Silver and Bronze! WOW!! And did you all see Zac Efron surprising Simone Biles of the Final Five gymnastics team? That was probably the best thing I have ever seen on television! It was so special of him to make her dream come true. I have a new love and respect for Zac Efron.

Keep cheering on those athletes! They represent us and need our support.

What's Up Wednesday?

What in the world are we looking at?

You may never know - but look in the background for a hint at a future post.

Okay, so I have FAILED at Wordless Wednesday.

I have tried but a lot of times I just have too much to say.

So, I think in the future there will be less WORDLESS

and more WORDFUL Wednesdays.

In the meantime, be sure to HOP ALONG with Blog Paws and its

I'm Gonna Miss Tea and My Very Special Biscuit

I am a little sad today. I just heard that my newest, most wonderful best friend for a day, Biscuit, went to the Rainbow Bridge yesterday. He was a good ol' boy and I will miss him.

I had heard of BISCUIT for years from my Aunt B. She works with his Mom and they often chatted about their FURKIDS. It just took a long time for her friend to FINALLY bring him over to our house (they joined us for the FOURTH OF JULY). They were afraid that Biscuit, who was 13 years YOUNG, and US (Molly and ME) would not get along. Silly humans!

We got along really really well. He was nice - in a curmudgeonly way. And he would just wander around the yard smelling things and exploring the new environment.
Look on the LEFT in my HAPPY BIRTHDAY photo - you can see Biscuit right next to me as I prepare to blow out my candles.

Come on LADY, Light the candle ALREADY!

I wish. . . I wish. . . Help me Biscuit and Molly. . .

Rest in Peace BISCUIT. I am gonna miss ya.

What's a Pug to DO?

It is USELESS. I cannot, will not, ignore the ripening apples in the yard. Every time I go out there I am overwhelmed by the aroma of ripening apples. I am drawn to the tree by the intoxicating smell and when I get there I am overcome by the need to pull an apple - or two - down.

That's when I settle into the little remaining grass (thank you drought for turning my green carpet of crass into crunchy brown weeds) and enjoy the sweet crispy crunch of a fresh apple. I am powerless to stop.

yes, that is a eye booger - so what?

Just a Word or TWO

Throw Back Thursday - Painful Memories Edition

In my SHORT 7 years, I am afraid I have had a misstep or two. I seldom take the most cautious path and tend to be a little like a bull in a china shop when I get my mind set on something.

The outcome has not always been good.

Case in point. . . a nearly empty yogurt container. I was hungry. . . when am I not? It was there. . . begging for me to come to its rescue. It got stuck . . . I guess I created a vacuum when I tried to get all of the goodness out of the container?

What does my HUmom do? Take a picture, of course. The laughs last longer.
