NOT pigs...we do not wallow in anger, guilt or misery. And neither should you, Mom. Stop staring at the ceiling from the couch trying to make people clouds out of the texturing. Its just not the same as going outside, into the fresh air and looking at the real clouds. Get up off the couch.
TODAY our Mom gave her sadness its own name, ...Bernice. Mom says Bernice can be a real bi**ch and at the moment just wishes she would buy a one way fare out of our house. Bernice just sits on the couch beside our Mom eating the last of the ranch chips...you know the ones we really like but only DAD sneaks us some. Mom ate cereal instead, while laying down on the couch. Bernice started to laugh thinking Mom would probably just choke to death on a dehydrated strawberry and one of us Pugs would have to do mouth to mouth. Can you only imagine all the fur a flying and Mom a yelling.
We don't like Bernice much either. We think she is very opinionated and oppressive. We want her to leave. We also want the sun to come out and dry up the swamp littered with ice and snow so our MoM can take us for a walk. Bernice isn't EVER EVER invited on our walks. We tried sending Bernice to live next door with the mean dogs, but her big a** isn't budging. (thats what our mom said) I looked in the phone book under 1-800-COME-GET-BERNICE ...but no one else in the world wants her.
We hate Bernice.

Dear Deb,
ReplyDeleteI have "Bernice" visit...except mine is more about sleeping until noon and staying in pajamas. "She" always seems to visit right before a major change. Recently, I went from having 40 students to over 100 students...good news...however, I had to tell my other job that I could only work once a week...the other job is like family...so it stung a bit...and the increase in students is wonderful...but still a decent change and then my new semester of going to school as a student to become an Elementary Education teacher is starting this week and I am always nervous about a new semester. I know that your Bernice is because of loss in your family/friend circle, but she seems to visit quite a few of us. My Bernice likes ice cream with Hot fudge and M&M's. I hope she leaves soon before my pants get tight. :)
Much Love,
Mindy :)
Tell Bernice to take a hike we say. Let's hope you get some nice sunny days to cheer mum up. A nice early Spring is what she needs.
ReplyDeleteSending love and hugs to mum.
Best wishes Molly
Chin up! Time for Bernice to leave and for Mom to get back to the Land of the Living! Oh... and we love wavy potato chips... ranch style... here in Kansas.
ReplyDeleteBernice does not sound nice at all! Your Mom needs to look her dead in they eye and tell her she is not at all wanted! I do understand it can be difficult with guests like her, but just keep at it and she will be gone one day soon!
ReplyDeleteBernice is NO FURIEND and it is time to tell her so. Negativity be GONE!!
ReplyDeleteLove you and your Mom - Noodles
Stella Rose, this Bernice sounds like a real "Debbie Downer". If Bernice likes the couch so much, let her have it...but get your mom off of the couch and away from Bernice. You can do it...give her that scrunchy, play-with-me face...heck, tug on her pants leg if you have to but get her away from Bernice. Oh, and Ma says Kettle Cooked Potato Chips...or chocolate...or some Kettle Cooked Chips and then immediately afterwards, some chocolate.

Sometimes it is GOOD to have a "HOUSEGUEST" fur a while. BUTT Company... like Fish... begins to smell Bad after a few days... you ya' just gotta Kick 'em OUT.. and begin to allow the SUN IN.
ReplyDeleteWe say... give Bernice a Dead Lion fur gettin the heck outta your Dodge.
Kick her out and lock the door. Big Hugs to your Mom xxooxxx

Tell Bernice to shape up or ship out
ReplyDeleteLily
Stella Rose, you climb up in Bernice's lap and bite her on the nose. Tell your mama that lots of people love her and are praying for her. We know this takes time, but mean old Bernice will leave at some point.
ReplyDeleteStella Rose, did you get my email about PJs for Gus?

I have a feeling that Bernice is packing her bags,,,,and before you even know it she will be gone. Sunshine is going to shine on all your faces, and dry the tears,, and melt the ice around you,, and you all will be walkin in the sunshine,,, and Bernice will be moving on for sure! We know you puggies can help make Bernice move out quicker than lightening,,, I know you can!

I hope Bernice gets bored real soon and leaves. Maybe if she sees how happy you little pugs can make your mom, she'll realize she doesn't belong there!
ReplyDelete(Mmm. That cereal with the dehydrated strawberries in is wicked good. I had to stop buying it cuz I think it had something in that was addictive!)
You tell Bernice to pack her bags and get outta town with mean ole Chrissy!
ReplyDeleteEdgar and his mum
Bite Bernice in the butt and put her bags on the porch. Tell mom to pull it together for the love of 3 pugs and then bite her in the butt for letting Bernice in the house in the first place.
ReplyDeleteAroo to you,
Sully
That sounds pawful!! I will cross paws that you find a way to get her OUT of your house!!
ReplyDeleteLoveys Sasha
We hope Bernice's aren't catching......
ReplyDeleteXXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy
I would like to buy a one way ticket to the moon for Bernice. maybe it helps when you play the song 87 times?
ReplyDeleteWe've met a Bernice before. She stays until we get fed up with her and kick her out. We hope you are replaying all the happy times!!

It's just a matter of one vowel to distinguish the difference! How annoying huh?
