Happy Thanksgiving to the best friends we could ever have!
I hope your day is full of love, family and hugs. And let’s not forget food. All kinds of food! I found another funny for today. I hope it makes you chuckle just a bit.
I also wanted to take this minute to express what I’m thankful for. I’m thankful for my friends here in blogville. I’m thankful for my family. I’m thankful for a roof over my head and a soft bed to sleep in at night. I’m thankful for the food provided for me every day. I’m thankful for the love all the way.
I’m thankful for the shoulders I have to lean on and the laps I have to snuggle on. I’m thankful to my birth mother who gave me to my adopted mother.
❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
And when I count my blessings, I count all of you twice!

Dear Friends – sometimes in life all we hear are the faults in the stars… the bad things that happen to us daily time after time. Sometimes, we need to stop and smell the roses. Such an old sentiment that needs to be put in place. So today, let’s welcome Wednesday. Let’s mention some “GOOD” things that have happened to us lately. Feel free to add yours in the comment section.
I am grateful for you my friends. Without you, where would I be? Just an ordinary pig in the fields.
I am grateful for mom’s clean slate on her latest mammogram. She is now cleared to go yearly instead of every 6 months.
I am grateful for daddy. I know that seems weird but hear me out. He takes care of all of us here at the Hotel Thompson. Yes the roles are reversed with him and mom but he is a trooper. He encourages us all to be all that we can be. He loves us… even if we are shall we say out of tune with our anipal reality at times.
I am grateful for mom. She has the biggest heart and would save all the anipals in the world if she could. She loves us all – pigs, cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish and everything in between. And mom never complains about having to work or the house or the bills or us being needy. We have our quality time together and during that time, she is all ours for as long as we need her. And trust me, we all want to turns on her lap getting special loving.
So my friends. This is just a start of my thankful list. What are yours? I’m sure I’ll be adding more as the day goes on!
Don’t forget to thank a veteran! We live due to veterans fighting for our freedom. They are much appreciated, not just today, but everyday!
My country,’ tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing; land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrims’ pride, from every mountainside let freedom ring!
My native country, thee, land of the noble free, thy name I love; I love thy rocks and rills, thy woods and templed hills; my heart with rapture thrills, like that above.
Let music swell the breeze, and ring from all the trees sweet freedom’s song; let mortal tongues awake; let all that breathe partake; let rocks their silence break, the sound prolong.
Our fathers’ God, to thee, author of liberty, to thee we sing; long may our land be bright with freedom’s holy light; protect us by thy might, great God, our King.
Do you hear that noise? I don’t either. Smiles broadly, sighs happily and stretches hooves without fear. We all slept in here this morning at the Hotel Thompson. It was quiet. It had such a free feeling – no one was tiptoeing around. No one was hiding. No one was scared to turn the corner into another room. Such a grand feeling.
Good bye Don Juan.
May you have safe travels for another year far, FAR away from the Hotel Thompson. May frost bite nip at your toes. May your hat get stuck in a paper shredder. May you get safely tucked away deep in a box in a time capsule and buried somewhere by a dog.
I don’t wish you ill will – really I don’t. I just wish you everything that you have so generously bestowed upon us here this year at the Hotel Thompson. In fact, I wish you a double dose.
Until next year my evil little nemesis – take care. I know I will be sleeping better!
Happy Thanksgiving my dear friends! From all of us here at the Hotel Thompson, we wish you a wonderful day full of happiness with friends and family, tummies full of food and awesome things to be thankful for in life. We are all very thankful here for YOU in our lives, a roof over our heads and great food on our table. Not just this day but every day of the year.
Thanks my friends for YOU and your friendship. Please have a wonderful day today!!
P.S. My friends – here’s wishing you all of the best of luck with the little elves that might come out tomorrow. We can get through this holiday together – Be brave!
Oh piggy heavens! Bashful has made it home from Auntie Sharon in Australia! He came in the mail and of course daddy would not let me open it until mom got home last night from the worky place. It was a funny thing too. It sounded like there was a party going on in that box. In fact, this song was playing.
Snorticles. It was constant. I kind of got used to it and was dancing and singing that catchy little tune myself. When mom came home, I FINALLY got to open the box. Bashful brought home a friend. May I present to you Koishi. Koishi in Japanese means pebble. Here is the Japanese writing for it: 小石 Cool huh? That Koishi is a looker – so pretty and beautiful in her kimono. I know that Princess Coralena, Virginia and Rockelle were all in awe over her outfit. There is a slight language barrier but I think we can get the meaning to a lot of things she is trying to say.
The first thing she wrote was 私は恥ずかしがり屋の愛 which in Japanese language is Watashi wa hazukashi gari-ya no ai. Do you know what that means? I got out my piggy translator and looked it up. It says, “I love Bashful”. Isn’t that the sweetest? That rock of mine certainly has the “IT” factor in picking up the ladies doesn’t he?
All of the rock clans and I stayed up late last night talking and catching up on everything that has been going on here at the Hotel Thompson. It was a late night into the morning but that was okay. It was a stormy night here last night with thunder and lightening. For a while, we lost power and everything was dark. That’s okay though. Koishi settled right beside Bashful and finally fell asleep in his arms. It was adorable!
You gotta see some of the other items that came home with Bashful from Auntie Sharon. First up, this adorable cute little keychain. OMP (Oh m pig!) Mommy fell IN LOVE with this keychain. That soup in the bowl looks so real – like it’s going to pour out at any minute. Isn’t is to die for?!
It’s so cute. We had to put it on display in our curio cabinet. We don’t want anything to happen to it!
Then, there was this headband. Daddy had a FIT about it. He immediately had to take it out of the package and put it on. Snorts – it was too funny. I’ll have to post about that situation next week. When I tell you that daddy of mine is two scoops past crazy – I am not joking. But I do have to give him this. The man has skills. Skills of stupidity but skills. It’s okay though. Mommy took the headband and wrapped it back up to put in our showcase. We don’t want anything to happen to it.
Also in the box were these cute little girls – I think they were made of wood. Help me out Auntie Sharon if I’m wrong. They were adorable! I think perhaps they may look innocent and sweet but I think they were the ones starting up the party in the box with I Think I’m Turning Japanese. Really, snorts, I do.
Of course, mommy put them in the curio cabinet as well. They are too adorable and look so cute in the cabinet with the keychain and headband.
And do you know what else Auntie Sharon found and sent to mom? Minnie Mouse boxes – OMP (oh my pig). I haven’t heard mom squeal that loud in a long time. These two little boxes sit inside of each other. They are precious! Mommy was overly thrilled with them.
We can’t thank you enough Auntie Sharon for hosting Bashful and the wonderful gifts. I really hope that Koishi will be happy here at the Hotel Thompson. I hope I translated this correctly:
Was I ever surprised with this years results. It could have only happened with all of my friends here in blogville. Thank you for reading along and supporting this little piggy in his mission of making people laugh. Here’s a toast for an awesome new year in 2014!!
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2013 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 30,000 times in 2013. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 11 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
Happy Thanksgiving to the best friends a miniature pot bellied piggy could ever have!

I’m thankful for the purr things Hemi and Mouse Girl (I hope that doesn’t go to their head). I’m thankful for Journalist Rocky the Squirrel. I’m thankful for Virginia, Princess Coralena, Manny and my pebble Bashful.
I’m thankful for the shoulders I have to lean on and the laps I have to snuggle on. I’m thankful to my birth mother who gave me to my adopted mother.
