I don’t usually do humor with my posts (perhaps I should) but the Holidays can be crazy for most if not all of us. And I just dragged myself to the gym after a long absence. While trying to burn off calories from that Thanksgiving dinner I saw the following commercial. No endorsement but think we all need a “HA, HA” (comic relief) during this time of year. Hope you enjoy, I know I did! CHEERS!

My life is in such disarray now as I am preparing to move. “Purging and packing” is my motto. And it is a great feeling to great rid of “stuff” that has been collecting in places I had forgotten. I feel like Simon in this video with his cat. Fortunately my “Princess”, Miss Mia is staying at a friend’s house so she won’t wreak havoc on any boxes I need for packing.

How endearing is this seeing an adorable kitten pouncing on a pitbull? Cheers to the owner who is a pitbull advocate and animal rescuer! Only proves that yes, pitbulls are just as loving, gentle, sweet and caring as other dogs. It’s the owners who need discipline and training.

This dog’s got TALENT! Can your dog do this? Pretty impressive I think! I was with some friends last night for dinner. They are English, I mean Welsh. And they are very particular about their lawn. Perhaps it is an English/Welsh thing. Do we mow our lawn across or down? Maybe this talented pooch could give them some advice and lend a paw. AWOOF!

Amazing really how animals are so much alike in many ways as with us humans. That yearning for connection and affection. Mighty adorable what this porcupine does for attention!

Watch out Batman, think this pug might be taking over your job! WOOF!

Seems as though this adorable baby skunk has same ticklish spot as pooches. Which is evident by it’s hind leg kicking in reaction to handler’s petting. I wonder though how much longer it will be before this adorable skunk starts emitting that wonderful odor?

The World Cup soccer final is scheduled for tomorrow, July 11th with Spain facing the Netherlands. The now world renowned “psychic” octopus predicts that Spain will win. He seems to have a pretty good track record. So if Spain does win the match, it might be anticlimactic.

These kitties are certainly very agile and athletic while corralling the bouncing ball. And seem to be getting in a good workout. Just wondering which kitty represents Spain and which represents the Netherlands? What do you think? GOOOOOOAAALLLLLLLLLLL!

The heat has subsided for now but it was not pleasant sleeping last night. Needless to say I am ready to do a face plant. But first will have that gin & tonic.

Speaking of sleepless, check out this video of Fro the cat trying to catch some zzzzz’s. He was being “Rickrolled”. What is “Rickrolled” you ask? I didn’t know myself until now.  Apparently it is an Internet meme trick that you play on someone where the victim unsuspectingly is forced to listen to or watch Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up.” Don’t think Fro has a high tolerance for Rick Astley interrupting his snooze. You go Fro…..!

There is a heat wave bearing down on the Northeast right now. And it was a fun weekend after all the 4th of July festivities.  But I am exhausted from not only a busy weekend but also this oppressive heat. Having said that I really would like to take a nap especially after watching this unlikely pair of a bird and cat taking a snooze.  Makes your heart melt just seeing them snuggle together. Hope everyone had a fun and enjoyable Holiday weekend!
