Yep. Mmhmm.

There's Something About Molly

Hey, y'all:

Me an' mom wuz cleanin' out the filin' cabinet the other day an' we ran across Molly O'Mally's AKC certificate.

Now I am here to tell YOU.......we just about crapped a duck when we seen that O'Mally's dad is her maternal GRANDFATHER!!! EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!

Check it out fer yerself! Here's her an' her folks:





NOW here's her mom and HER folks:





Yep, that Moses Pa-Pa Pomeroy wuz a nasty sonofagun I tell ya what! 'Cept I DO like his name. Matter o' fact, she's got some real good names in her family tree: Pistol Pete, Pistol Pete's Repeater, Bo's Ebony, Dixie Dolly.

Hell, she ain't nothin' but a HILLBILLY!!! (I'm startin' to think AKC stands fer "American KIN Club".)


Now THAT explains A LOT about O'Mally!





Yep. Mmhmm.

Things that Make Ya Go "Mmmmm"




Hey, y'all:

Just takin' a break from grass cuttin' to catch up with ya. My pal, Murph, gave me this here award. Wonder whut made 'im think I'D steal food??

Anyways, I haven't stole a lot o' food (my mom's got eyes in the back of 'er head I tell ya what) but I HAVE got my paws on a few ferbidden snacks when she wuzn't lookin'........





I like 'em old and used. Fresh outta the wrapper don't do a thing fer me!





Okay, so this ain't ME but you git the idea.





Yep, avocado. Not the pit, though.....that's poison, ya know!





Now tomatoes are harmless enough, but mom wants to hog 'em all to 'erself!


Now accordin' to the rules, I'm supposed to tag some other folks but I see that lots of ya already got this. And I tell ya what......y'all are some perfessional food thieves!

Yep. Mmmhmm.

Blogging with Becca





Good day, friends!

Make yourselves comfortable! I'd offer you a cup of tea but can't find my way around the kitchen. Come to think of it, I can't even reach the cupboard.

Allow me to properly introduce myself. I am Becca the Beagle/Springer Spaniel and long-time resident of Brandt Drive Home for the Visually Impaired. And a long time it has been indeed. I was here before daddy married mother!

Unfortunately, daddy can't find my puppy pictures but I assure you I was very cute, if I may say so myself. At twelve years old, I retired from my position as chief bird/squirrel chaser eight months ago. My eyesight is gone but am thankful my Beagle nose still works!

Hank has graciously allowed me to post this week. Ahem. Um.......truthfully, he is passed out on the couch after secretly chowing down on mother's garden tomatoes! Anyway, mother suggested I post something about getting along with others since that's what I do best.

With that, I give you these photos of Hank, Molly, the pugs mother transported last weekend, and myself. These are wonderful examples of how to "meet and greet" with good manners and kindness!















Now, Molly....settle down. You know daddy and mother still love us best.








Of course, kindness is it's own reward!




'Til next time!

I'm Molly O'Mally and I'm proud to say.....

.....I'm twelve years old! TWELVE!!!

Hi, everyone! Hank is taking a blog break so that I can update you on a very important subject......ME!

First and foremost, I had emergency bladder surgery two weeks ago today! Ouchie! Mommy took me to the emergency vet clinic thinking I just had another pesky bladder infection. Was she surprised when an x-ray showed my little bladder swollen up like a balloon! The nice doctor did surgery to relieve my bladder of all that pee pee. Now I have to take "old lady pills" (as mommy calls them) to make my bladder contract like it should. I'm feeling pretty frisky now but check me out ten days ago!





I sure hope my fur grows back! (I'm very vain, you know.)


On to a happier note.....my twelfth birthday was a week ago Sunday! I still wasn't quite up to par and not much in the mood for frivolity so no party hats this time. But cake? HO, YEAH!!!




Hank had to get his piece, of course......




Here's Becca nearly taking off mommy's hand!




One more piece for me......too bad, Hanky!




Before I forget, BIG thanks and kisses to Aunt Annie for coming over to feed and check on me while mommy and my cousins went to something called a "beetle" festival in Chicago.



Why in the world would beetles be worthy of their own festival? Although I hear they're a delicacy in India!


Oh, and thanks to all of you who've called, e-mailed or left messages on mommy's Facebook wishing me well.

Pugs and Kisses!

Aw, Crap!

Hey, y'all:


It's been crazy here at Brandt Drive Home for the Visually Impaired! Can't do none o' my fancy bloggin' fer a while 'cause the hard drive crashed and burned, and mom can't figger out how to get Photoshop on this here laptop. Where is dad when we need him?!?!?!

Speakin' o' dad, he's now an official student truck driver and is travelin' all over the place I tell ya what. I can't wait 'til he gets his own truck......can't ya just pitcher me in the cab?! YEE HAWWWW!!!!

Now, some of you already know this but my sister, Molly O'Malley, had to have emergency surgery on her bladder last week! The sawbones that saw her at the emergency clinic said he'd never seen a bladder that big. That thing was swelled up like a balloon! Somethin' 'bout a chronic bladder infection and how it was not lettin' her bladder contract. Mom had to have words with Molly's regular vet. Lemme tell ya, I don't know where those folks got their DVM license but mom's pretty sure it was through a correspondence course.

Now don't you worry....Molly is gettin' better everyday. Why just yesterday she bit me on the butt! And that's sayin' a lot 'specially since she turned twelve last Sunday.

And since dad's been gone, mom's had to get her butt off the computer and do some real work around this house. Sweet Betty, she thought the pool cleaned itself!

So as you can see, there's not been much time fer bloggin'. Anyhoo....just wanted to touch base with y'all and say "hey" to my blog buddies. As soon as mom gets this computer stuff straightened out we'll share some Molly b-day pics and other cool stuff.

In the meantime, enjoy this little gem that has become me and dad's theme song.....




Yep. Mmmhmm.
