It’s the Middle of the Year

It’s the middle of the year – hasn’t 2014 just flown by so fast?

It’s time to check those New Years resolutions and see how far you’ve gotten on them and how far you have to go.  I personally like to do this double check around this time of the year.  So let’s see what I have/have not accomplished so far.

My 2014 New Years Resolutions:

• Take more naps – check.  It’s hard maintaining this beauty – it requires many, MANY naps a day.  I try to get as many in as possible during the day so I can play with mom to keep her active when she gets home from the worky place.  
• Continue to eat healthy – check.  So far so good with eating plenty of fruits and vegetables.  The only problems I have this nowadays is keeping daddy out of my piggy stash – snorts.
• Maintain this sexy physique – check. Someone has to be the piggy sexy star at the Hotel Thompson!   Daddy is trying but his pot belly is not as adorable as mine – double snorts…. don’t tell him I saw that okay.
• Become a Super Pig Hero – Still working on this one.  I do have Piggy Power when I need/want to run around and get into trouble save the world. 
• Keep mom wrapped around my hooves – check check – this is a full time job! snorts

What about your New Years resolutions.  How far have you come on your list?  Mom/dad are still working on theirs as well.  Some things they have crossed off while others are still sitting there waiting for them.

 AND with this being the middle of the year, do you know what that means??

It’s only 176 days until Christmas!!

Happy mid year Christmas!!

 

Dear Bacon

Dear Bacon,
Hello my friend.  I see you have a squirrel for a friend – thank you for liking our kind.  And, I know you secretly want to be a super pig hero and wear a cape.  Anytime you want, you can be my sidekick!  Signed Super Squirrel

Dear Super Squirrel,

You are so on!  I love the thoughts of being your sidekick.  I’ve been trying to convince mom for a while now that I need a cape.  You think you can help me a little and talk to her?

 

Dear Bacon,
I don’t think my friends have any clue whatsoever that I’m not really ‘one’ of them if you know what I mean.  I love this spy stuff – what about you?  Signed RacCat Bandit

Dear RacCat Bandit,

OMP (Oh my pig!)  That is so funny.  I fell off of the couch I was laughing so hard at that picture.  You are a little spy, aren’t you?  I can only imagine some of the information you have obtained with that disguise.  Maybe I need to get a mask for Halloween this year.  It would be a hoot!

 

Dear Bacon,
It’s really not as hard as it looks.  I’ve been hanging out with some ladies all week and it’s been great fun!  My next step is to see if one of them will marry me.  Do you think I have a shot?  Signed RooFlam

Dear RooFlam,

Well, first of all I think you look great and you have some amazing talent for walking on sticks. I myself could never do that.  I just don’t have the balance.  Second off, you might want to rethink your mission.  It’s bound to come out eventually that you are not what you seem.

 

Dear Bacon,
Sometimes I think a picture says a thousand words.  I think this is one of those occasions.  What do you think?  Signed Pom the Comedian

Dear Pom the Comedian,

Your picture is so wrong on so many different levels but I have to admit that I laughed… hard!  And, daddy laughed… hard!  Your poor brother – I’m not so sure he thought it was so funny.  All I gotta say, it was a good one but watch out.  I’m sure I’ll be getting a picture and email from your brother in the very near future!

 

Dear Bacon,
It’s not really fair.  I love chasing skunks.  I don’t hurt them.  I just like to play.  See what happens when you just want to play?  You get labeled for life.  I’m sure this picture is going to end up all in the family.  What’s a dog to do?  Signed I’ve Been Skunked

Dear I’ve Been Skunked,

Snorts – you poor, poor pooch.  Your humans are really funny.  I understand you wanting to play but there’s some things out there in the animal kingdom that we just leave alone.  Skunks would be one of them.  I understand your sign – almost.  What’s a douche bag?

 

 

Dear Bacon,

It would be fun they said.  Come on out and play in nature – get some exercise.  Yeah, right.  They got me good.  I think you have the right idea. I’m going anti-nature!  Signed Tree High Five

Dear Tree High Five,

WOW – chasing that frisbee you just didn’t see that tree, huh?  I’m not laughing at you.  I’m laughing with you.  One day you will look back at this picture and chuckle.  Maybe not today.  Maybe not tomorrow.  But one day you will.  Sorry for your pain.  Don’t throw nature away yet.  Hang in there my friend and keep chasing those frisbee’s…. just watch out for trees… and mailboxes… and telephone polls… and fire hyrdrants… snorts

It’s the Middle of the Year

It’s the middle of the year – hasn’t 2013 just flown by so fast?

It’s time to check those New Years resolutions and see how far you’ve gotten on them and how far you have to go.  I personally like to do this double check around this time of the year.  So let’s see what I have/have not accomplished so far.

My 2013 New Years Resolutions:

• Take more naps – check.  As you can see with Hemi hi-jacking my computer this weekend, this is working.
• Continue to eat healthy – check.  It’s hard but it’s a work in progress
• Maintain this sexy physique – check. Someone has to be the piggy sexy star at the Hotel Thompson! 
• Become a Super Pig Hero – still working on this one.  I need a magic CAPE bad… in red… with Power Pig written on the back. 
• Overcome my anti-nature stance – still working on this one.  I’m in therapy and almost to the end of it so hopefully I can mark this off soon.
• Keep mom wrapped around my hooves – check check – this is a full time job! snorts

What about your New Years resolutions.  How far have you come on your list?  Mom/dad are still working on theirs as well.  Some things they have crossed off while others are still sitting there waiting for them. 

 

AND with this being the middle of the year, do you know whart that means??

Happy mid year Christmas!!

 

Okay – Enough Dad but Thanks for the Help Really

Dad is so helpful.  He learned of my desire to lose a little weight to get ready for swimsuit season.  What does he do?  Threaten to put me on the family treadmill.  Really? 

He actually had the nerve to put my little fanny on the treadmill and turn it on low.  I didn’t know what to do so I started walking slowly.  He was all excited and thought he was doing something fabulous.  He was laughing so loud that mom came in to find out what he was doing.

 

Talk about having a fit.  Mom can squeek pretty loud when she wants to.  I never knew that – PLOL (Pig Laughing out Loud).  I wasn’t in any harm and in fact I was kind of digging the treadmill.  It wasn’t going too fast, just good enough for me to keep up with on my short chubby little legs.  Well, mom didn’t like it.  She said no to the treadmill.  She turned it off and told me told get off.  I was all “aaww mom” but she didn’t want to hear it.

 

So, it’s back to pig aerobics in front of the television.  You know really, I think I can have this entire problem solved in just a few minutes.  If mom would just make me that cape, I could be Super Pig and get plenty of exercise!  Start my theme music please, “Here I come to save the day…”  Okay, that’s Mighty Mouse but I think it would work for me, don’t you?

XOXO – Bacon
