The DWB Holiday Card Exchange.....

Hey pups,

This is my "get out of bed mum and help me post on my blog that the DWB Holiday Card Exchange lists have been emailed to all pawticipants" face. Do you like it ?

As my face suggests, everyone who submitted to pawticipate in the card exchange should now have their master list, and a few ammendments. If you haven't received your list and did register, please email me immediately !

We are going to help mum write out all our envelopes over the weekend, and dad is going to do the cards this week - so make sure you go and wait by your letterbox soon :)

We really love this DWB event - we know that we don't participate in things as much as we used to - but we always look forward to the Card Exchange.

Hope you are all having a great weekend - mum was away all last week, and dad is away this weekend, then mum is away for the next two weeks - so things are pretty hectic at our place. I hate it when mum goes away as I get stuck with "the boys" - and I really have to show BJP who is the boss - that would be ME, and don't forget it !!

Oh, I nearly forgot - I am starting to wonder why is it that most times when mum goes away, and I look through her phone pics when she gets home - she always has some pics of the Leuradales on it ! She tells us that she is going away "for work", but I think she is trying to trick us ! Do you think it is fair that she goes and stays with MY friends whilst I am stuck at home having to put up with SHD & BJP ???? Hmphhhh - I think not !


Love

It's my birthday today !

I am officially a teenager, and can anyone guess what my birthday wish
is ? If you look at the picture below it may give you a clue.

One way or the other, I will have a peaceful day :)

From Fergie & Jake's blog:

Before you read

We ask you to please help spread this message as quickly and as far as you can
So as many dogs and cats and families as possible
Can read it prior to 5:00 PM, Saturday, 14 Nov 09, Iowa Time
(11:00 PM, 14 Nov 09 GMT)
Copy it.
Paste it.
Link to it.
Whatever.
Just please help us get the message out.

As you may know
Miss Snickers is struggling
Mightily
Along with her family.

(The best place to keep up with updates is her Gussie’s blog.)

Last night looked as if it might have been her last.
This morning she rebounded with improved symptoms.

She is far from out of the woods
But she and her family
Including her gentle and loving brother Butchy
Have been granted another day.

We can’t help but believe
that part of the improvement is because of
The support and love that have surrounded her
From all around the world
Thanks to the linked paws
Of her blogging friends.
The Power of the Paw

We are asking everyone to set your alarms
And at exactly 11:00 PM GMT on Saturday 14 Nov 09
5:00 PM Saturday evening in Iowa
as Snickers' family sits down to eat
Turn toward them (in the central USA)
And join together in a silent minute
Of prayer, meditation, contemplation, reflection
Whatever feels right to you.

Followed by whatever means of communication
You choose.

Arrooing
Barking
Howling
Yipping
Yapping
Wooing
Meowing
Mewing
Purring

whatever is in your hearts
That will help them feel the Love and Support
They need right now.

Personally, we’ll be praying for a Miracle.

Then

Blow a Kiss
and send your Love and Prayers and Best Wishes
and they will feel their arrival
in the breeze.
