A Note from the Desk of Tinky........

Hola, friends!! It's Tinks McTinkerton!!!!!!!

What's up?

I am chilling on my comfy bed while writing the blog this week because Fat Guy is too engrossed in new episodes of Swords on Discovery Channel and college football. Mommy doesn't hate this show as much as Deadliest Catch. She says she can deal with it.

He will be in frequent lounge mode watching other fat men in tight pants running to catch a very weird looking ball about the size of me!

Lately, we haven't done too much at our house. Daddy takes me across the street to spend time with my boyfriend, Pepper, the Shih Tzu. Pepper has anger management issues toward Rumpke garbage cans on wheels. Every time his daddy and mommy take the trash down for trash day, he freaks out. He barks at our trash can too or anything with wheels for that matter. He also hates fireworks.

Mommy was really busy all last month with her Legal Writing class so she didn't have much time to do anything. She still made time to spend time with me. We cuddle alot when she is watching TV and has a blanket on. I hide under it because I am always cold. Here are some pics of me with my friends cuddling with mommy. She was really tired and feeling bad, so we tried to cheer her up! She kinda hates this picture because she says she looks bad:

I mostly cuddle with daddy though, because he is really warm and fuzzy and I like to lay on his belly or shoulder.

Last weekend, Mommy and Daddy went to their friends' Mike and Della's house to help get rid of an old couch and some junk for the dump. They hung out with them all day and learned about Mike's dad's experiences in World War II and some of the interesting things he kept from the war. Very cool stuff! Here is a pic of Della in a German Nazi helmet:

Scurrrry helmet!

Mike and Della also came to visit mommy and daddy on Sunday and Della presented mommy with the infamous Canasta game that they saw at the Peddler's Mall in Frankfort in May! For a Canasta/Gangsta recap, check out this link: Canasta Madness from mommy and daddy's trip to Frankfort and Cincinnati.

It turns out, it was made by a student at some high school in 1950. Pretty neat. Mommy loves antiques and weird stuff. I don't have a picture of it, but the front looks like it says Gangsta, not Canasta, haha! Mommy and daddy had a fun Sunday cooking out at our house for Mike and Della and they also had a bonfire. Daddy took rocks from the creek, dug a circle in the backyard, and mommy helped him lay out the rocks in a circle. Check out the fire pit they made:

Daddy had alot of trouble with the fire because the wood may have been too wet, but the fire did work a little. The chair daddy is sitting in will soon be fire wood too. Mommy and daddy don't like it. HAHA!

Well, I better go, I have to go chase some kitties! I live you now with some pics of my brothers, Conan and Deuce!

Go American football!

Have a great Labor day weekend!!
