awards and sadness

Mom is a big weenie. She didn't stay up all night last night with the blogathoners . She only made it until 3 am our time, 4 eastern or 1 pacific. She did wake up in time to catch the last post at 8 our time though. We want to say that we think a great job was done by all. I won lots of stuff too. Woo hoo for me.

My buddy Biggie Z the criminal catcher gave me Arte-y-Pico award

the Rules:

1) You have to pick 5 blogs that you consider deserve this award, creativity, design, interesting material, and also contributes to the blogger community, no matter of language.

2) Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his or her blog to be visited by everyone.

3) Each award-winning, has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that has given her or him the award itself.

4) Award-winners and the one who has given the prize have to show the link to the "Arte y pico" blog , so everyone will know the origin of this award.

5) To show these rules.

I want to pass this award on to Aggie who is a little cutie, Casper who reminds Mom of her old dog Kiko, Cubby who does so much for other boxers, Peanut because any dog named Peanut deserves an award and Fig because we love her.

I also got two awards from Mona

I want to give both of these to everyone because we love you all and you are all our friends.

The Puppies of Hoadley Drive gave us this wonderful award.

Here are the rules for this one
Add the logo of the award to my blog
Add a link to the person who awarded it to me
Nominate at least 7 other blogs -
Add links to those blogs on my blog
Leave a message for my nominees on their blogs.
So even though lots of our friends have gotten this already we want to give it to
Gus, Louie and Callie
Tadpole
Sitka, Tia and Cornelia Marie
The 4Bs
Ronak
Mango the Maltese
and Dozer and Cooper and Dottie who live in Oregon so mom is partial to them of course.

We want all our friends we gave awards to to know that they are not obligated to post about them or pass them on. We just wanted you to have them.

I told Flash he could post tomorrow since he didn't get to post on Friday because we were sad after we read the news about Charlie Kelley Church's mom Kathleen. C-K-C was one of the first friends we made on DWBs and our hearts go out to her family in this time.

Don't forget

Don't forget to check in with Steve, Kat & Wilbur and also the gang over at the Kapp Pack as they do the day of blogs today to raise money for their charities.

It's been exciting so far. I already won a prize. Woo hoo.

We are going to try and stay up with them the whole time. Mom says she might have to set her alarm clock to go off every half an hour. I don't think she can make it she's old and likes to take naps. So we will see.

wordless wednesday -I love my boy

It is I

The stupid canines are off at some party for some other canine today so I thought I would take over the blog and let you all know how I am doing.

A month ago I had to go to the VET because mom was worried about me because I was not eating. She said anytime I do not eat it is cause for concern. They do not call me the Fatman for nothing you know. I tell you those VET people are not nice. They shaved some of the fur off my front legs. Wrapped me in a towel and drained my blood. They gave me a shot and still didn't figure out what was wrong with me. So I went through all of that for nothing. Needless to say when I got home I started eating and was fine. Sometimes you just have to shake your humans up a bit.

I won this lovely award from Wilbur.

So thanks man. You are a cool cat also and you know your two beasts are furrier then mine. Since the big stupid one isn't that furry in this house. I do not think yours are quite as stupid though. So that may be lucky for you.
I don't know many cats to give this award to and no dog on earth deserves it so I will pass it on to my aunt Clara and uncle Edgar. They are truly cool cats for putting up with those 3 dogs they live with. Not to mention the crazy old lady and the big fire monkey.
Note to pappy and grammie: I, shelby, did not call you a crazy old lady or a big fire monkey. That was mother. You can ground her when you get here.

Now if you all recall my most intense hatred is for the big stupid dog since he is the one that bothers me the most. Well mom got him a cage as you all know since he has been whining about it. I like to do this


to further agitate him because he hates going in there even more knowing I go in and lay around in there. hahahahahaha It is more comfortable with all the blankets and pillows that have been added since those pictures. I will have to get mom to take a picture of me snoozing in there and post it later

Lastly my mom took the boy to a gator farm. He had a ton of fun and even got to hold a little gator.


Off to enjoy my day without the stupid canines
Shelby aka the fatman

Someone is a drama king

I'm not naming names or anything but someone is a big drama king. Complaining about his kennel, showing you the pictures of it before all his blankets and pillows got in there. Just being a big baby about the whole thing when someone is only put in there if mom leaves the house and since we know that hardly ever happens someone is hardly ever put in there.
Not naming any names just saying someone needs to quit being a big old baby.



Later gators
Flash

It's here and it's awful

I don't think I need to say much just look at the pictures.

It's awful just awful

I can't even bear to talk about it right now. More tomorrow if I have the strength.

I am not a dork

The bathtub is cool. Plus unlike the big knucklehead I like the water.
Want to see a dork just look

besides only a dork would keep doing so many bad things that mom is going to buy him a kennel. Ahahahahahahahaha yep that's right he's getting a kennel and I'm not since I a good dog. Ahahahahahahahahaha take that you dork.

later gators
Flash

Flash is a big dork

He really is. Here is the proof. Mom was going to take a shower and the dork got into the bathtub and then wouldn't get out.

Mom had to actually pick him up out of the bathtub. I told mom if he wanted to be in the bathtub that bad she should have given him a bath but she didn't.
Not much is going on here. My mom is dull and now that she is not feeling so good she isn't doing anything but laying around. But on a brighter note she hasn't done the dishes so I am having fun getting up there and licking the plates. YUMMY Of course I get yelled at but it's all worth it.

Mom's a major dork

Who else but my mother would scrape the inside of her ear and give herself an infection. Yep you read that right.
3 days ago when mom was washing her face she got her finger caught in an earring and ripped the earring out and scraped the inside of her ear. Well today she woke up with a lump behind her ear that hurt so she went to the human VET today and he told her where she scraped her ear had gotten infected and that is why her limpy node thingie behind her ear was infected also. He said he was amazed that her actual ear didn't hurt because it didn't look to good.
I have told you all the woman needs help. This just proves it. Now she is on AntyBeeotics or some such thing and has to take 80 of them. 2 of them at a time 4 times a day.

I just hope she survives until dad makes it home.

a note to Grammie

To my wonderful Grammie,

Mother has informed me that you and Pappy are going to be bringing my girl back to me before school starts. She informed me that this means you and pappy would be staying with us for a few days. I would like to respectfully ask you if maybe you could bring me some treats and toys because mom is a big cheapo and never buys us anything.
PLEEEEAAAASSSSSEEE Grammie

Love
Peanut

p.s. to moco. If grammie doesn't pack anything maybe you could hide some stuff in the car before they leave.

Stains and crooked curtains

So mom and my boy have been spending lots of time at their friends house. Mom is friends with the mom and the boy is friend with the boys there. The boys come to our house but the mom doesn't because the stupid fat cat makes her itch.
So mom and our boy left and I decided that I had been left alone with Flash quite enough. You know he's kind of boring and doesn't want to play as much as me.
So I did this

and this

and this also

Now my dear friends I know you are wondering how I could make such wonderful stains. Well my dear mother was not using her brain as usual and left a 6 pack of orange pop (or soda for some of you) on the stove. Being as everything on the stove needs to be investigated to see if I want to eat it. I took it off and drug the cans all around in the living room and bite holes in 3 of them. The other 3 were safe. I can only drink so much pop at once and not being my dad my limit is not 24 mountain dews in one day.
Pop left where it is supposed to be under the turtle table is never bothered by me. You would think the woman would learn.
Oh and for good measure I did this to the curtains.


I bent the rod and actually ripped the hook right out of the wall. Sometimes I even amaze myself. :)

I haven't forgotten

I haven't forgotten that I'm supposed to tell you the mess I created in the house but for some reason we are having problems loading pictures to blogger. Hopefully it will work soon because the post won't be as good without pictures.

New haircut and new pet

Okay so I've been in trouble the past couple of days. I will tell you about that tomorrow.

My boy got a haircut. My mom's friend gave it to him. She said it was better then the ones she has to pay for.

And we got a new pet. Isn't she cute?

hahaha just kidding. That is my mom's friend's daughter. She is cute and likes us. Her brothers are my boy's friends. She climbed in Flash's bed and decided to try to take a little nap. Mom laughs at her a lot because she says she acts just like my girl did at that age.
They have been hanging out at our house a lot or mom is down at their house with our boy. When Mom is gone is when I get in trouble. Stay tuned for that.

Surprise from Wally and my mom's an idiot

Okay so we got a surprise package in the mail yesterday from my BFF Wally Tamale.
When I got mom to open it I was so excited it was Mariners Bandanananas
This is where mom being an idiot comes into play. She opens one of them and says "Oh Peanut I don't think this will fit you but I can tie it to your collar so you can wear it" so that's what she did. Then she took this picture

Then she opened the other one and the woman said "Oh Peanut maybe this one is supposed to be yours" Uh duh lady it is the bigger of the two. Maybe you should have looked at them both before just deciding one needed to go on me. So because she had taken a picture of one on me already she put the big one on Flash and took his picture

See what he is thinking. It was way to big for him. Now that we've got it all straightened out it's okay but she didn't take any pictures of us with the right ones on. Sometimes I really wonder about that woman.
Thanks again Wally. We still love the Mariners even if they are doing so so so badly and are looking for a new GM

Oh and everyone go visit our cousin Diamond. She is our Auntie Shalon's dog and she just got her own blog.

My package

Hey everybody it's me Flash. I get to talk about my box from the goodie exchange from Jake and Just Harry.
It came with a lovely card that said "Hello Flash, We hope you enjoy the treats and toys, We went with a red, white and blue theme in honor of your dad in Iraq.
Wirey woofs and lots of love
Jake and Just Harry The barkalot Boyz from South Florida

Mom didn't take a picture of the card. Sometimes she is useless.
Here is me checking out what's in the bag. Mom had put Peanut outside so he couldn't try and push me out of the way.

I got these great treats. I already ate the bully stick. Mom put Peanut on a leash so he couldn't try and take it away from me. He's kind of a big meanie.

Then look at all these cools toys. You see that little tiny kong wubba and that kitty. I love these toys. I have some of the bigger kitty toys but peanut plays with them and mom says that this kitty and wubba are to small for Peanut. So hahaha they are all mine. I've been playing with them since she checked the mail. She put the other toys up for now so we wouldn't fight over them and ruin them all in one day.

Then I got these cool bandannas. I let mom put on on Peanut. See me telling mom to let me outside so I can show everyone my cool new look.

Mom says ignore the mcdonalds cup in this picture since Peanut had stolen it off the table.

So thank you Jake and Just Harry. This is such cool stuff and I LOVE IT.

Happy Father's Day

We want to say Happy Father's Day to our Dad. We miss you dad. We love you
and for everyone else some pictures of our dad.

She left

My girl left hours ago and mom just now let me on the computer to blog about it.
When she was leaving she told me "Bye Peanut, I love you. see you in August."

EXCUSE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! AUGUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTH is with that? that is a long time from now? I don't think camp lasts that long. I still don't know where she went. She didn't tell me, mom hasn't told me. I think Flash knows but he's being a jerk and won't tell me either.

Here we are in happier times. Before she up and left me.



Update: I got this comment from my aunt Moco
Moco said...

We have seen her.

So if Aunt Moco has seen her then that means she's at Grammie's house. That's even worse. Not only did she leave me but she got to go to Grammie's house while I am stuck here with Mom. My boy is the only thing that makes it tolerable to stay here.

What is going on?

Okay now I know some of you have had to deal with one of these things before

and when they show up your mom and/or dads go away. Well one of them showed up in my house today but it isn't in mom's room. No it isn't it's in my Girl's room. I went and looked and there isn't one in mom's or my boy's room either. Just in my Girl's. Does this mean she's leaving me? Where is she going? She is only 12 how can she go anywhere without mom? What if she doesn't come back?
This is incredibly stressful I just don't know what is happening.

My package from Mona

I got my goody exchange package from Mona a few days ago but am just now posting. Sorry about that Mona. Mom kind of let me open the box check it out.


Untitled from playfulheartmonkey on Vimeo.

Here is a picture of all the cool stuff we got. We got toys and frisbees and treats. The kitty in the background we have had for awhile. We got these lovely desert things that I can't wait to try.

But when mom was trying to take this picture Flash and I got in a fight over the cookies even though mom had put them all back in the package. Mom hurt her back and shoulder while trying to break us up so all our stuff is back in the box in this closet


and she says we are not going to see it for days. I think she's being mean.
Oh and mom got a lovely little inspirational book from mona's mommy and she says thank you very much. She likes it.
So thank you to Mona from the bottom of our paws and to Chef and Beasly for setting this all up.

Finally

I am able to blog again. Geez.
Anyway I wanted to tell you about these great gifts I got from my gal Kaos.
She sent me a package and it smelled so good. I couldn't wait to open it.
I got these toys

here is me checking them out. You can see part of Fatty the cat in the second picture

I also got some Schmakos which are Kaos's favorite treat. So much so that she ate most of the ones she bought for me. That's okay though because i love her.
She also sent me this lovely picture of her

Mom put it low on the fridge so I can see it but then she moved it up because Peanut and his big jowls were drooling on her and could have ruined the picture. She said she would let me look at it anytime I wanted though.
Thank you so much for the stuff. I love it all.
Oh and Kaos mom finally sent out your package today so I hope you get it soon.
