Dear Mr. Santa Claus: A Boxer Boy Christmas Wish...


Dear Mr. Claus,

How are you?
I am doing fine.

As you know I've had a rough fall.

The blackberries were delicious but if I had known I'd be wearing this crazy thing on my head for eight weeks I might have re-thought my initial plan to taste them...

I've spent my entire allowance on vet visits, medicine, pill pockets and duct tape but other than the scratched eye, I've been a really good boxer boy this year. Just ask My Girl, she'll tell you. She loves me. I know this to be true becasue she puts food in my bowl twice a day and sometimes gives me bits of whatever she's eating.

I know last Christmas I blew it with the cupcake incident but I think I paid for that plenty once My Girl found out what I did.

And I know I ate the expensive bed that My Girl bought me and it made her really mad... but I think she was more worried about all the foam I ate.

Don't worry, she got it out, that stupid turkey baster full of peroxide again.

I know My Girl would like me to sleep through the night but I wake her up becasue I worry she forgets about me when she's sleeping.

Sometimes the man lets me sleep in the bed but those are special occasions when he is feeling jolly...

So, here is my simple wish list.
I know Gabby got hers first but we all know what an over-achiever pleaser she is...
She hoards the toys too.
Just saying.

Mr. Brown's Christmas Wishes

1. pumpkin dog biscuits
2. mequite bbq dog biscuits
3. apple pie dog biscuits
4. mini milk bones
5. molasses and peanut butter biscuits, the ones with a paw print on them.
6. a box of chocolates to bribe Dr. Baxter to take my cone off.
7. A new cone if #6 doesn't work out
8. Large Milk-Bones
9. New Hockey Puck
10. Steps to make it easier to get on the big bed.
11. new sleeping pad. I promise I won't eat this one.
12. box of kleenex (it's my favorite snack)
13. A case of peroxide for My Girl
14. A new turkey baster for the man.

It's not much but it's all close to my itty bitty heart... 

Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!
Cheers,
Mr. Brown

p.s. Maybe if you think about it you could put a shot of whiskey in my bowl when you stop by? they keep a couple bottles in the cupboard above the fridge. the man got a fancy bottle that i've been wanting a taste of but he hasn't shared any with me yet... i think he's hoarding it.

p.p.s. i enclosed my picture so you could see how handsome I am. My girl always says how handsome I am. do you think i'm handsome?

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Spring Cleaning = no VK Live

I don't get a cleaning bug often. I truly dislike it. I would rather knit than scrub a toilet or polish something... But it happens that I get the urge to purge (too much listening to the Top Gun soundtrack this weekend) and when the momentum is high and lasts three days I won't fight it... I can't. Plus I probably saved at least $250.00 by not going to a knitting expo! Have you ever done a big ruthless purge on your stuff? You can learn a lot about who you are or who you have been... 1. I apparently have an affection for lined notebooks and notepads considering I've counted 17 in my living room alone. 2. I easily have 50+ knitting books on my shelf and have only knit one pattern from one of them. 3. 2011 I was a grumpy snot at Christmas. So grumpy I didn't even open any Christmas cards. I didn't thrown them out either apparently... I'll open them later today. 4. My sister-in-law M gives me some pretty awesome gifts. Funny notebooks (o...

quirks, questions, and things best remembered......

1. Two bads never ever equal a better. 2. Muffins or Cupcakes I will always eat the top last. D thought it would be funny one time to teach me a lesson regarding this little nuance of my behavior, so at a party he sees my cupcake top sitting on my plate and he walks by and quick stuffs it in his mouth. He said it was to teach me a lesson, but I think we all know who learned a lesson that night. 3. While it is always to have good oral hygiene habits for both man and beast alike I would like to strongly caution you against keeping the beasts tooth paste next to your own toothpaste. Trust me when I say the beast will get much more enjoyment from your toothpaste gracing his brushes bristles than you will trying to do a massive mouthwash flush of poultry flavored peppermint paste. Learn from my mistake...... 4. I always feel sorry for people who I either happen to be talking to or emailing at the moment my medication kicks in. It can't be fun, but you all are such good sports about it. ...
