Wilma's Wednesday Words of Wisdom, on Flashback Friday, with some Sunflower Power of the Paw Thrown in

You gotta keep a full compliment of treats in your arsenal. You never know which one you'll need to retrieve at any given moment.

Hi friends, I'm back. Mom hasn't been able to help me as much with the blog, or post as many comments this week because of sadness. I am cutting her some slack, because I too have been a little sad. But I told her, what better way to feel better than to help me spread my wisdom, joy and antics on the blog. She agreed. She wanted me to tell you all thank you so much for your kind words after the loss of our friend Sheila. Bloggy people are such good friends too!

Anyway, back to my wisdom. See, I also know how Mom gave me up for being all tender and stuff last week. But, I am OK with that. You see, you gotta be able to deal with all kinds of things when you are trying to raise these humans into good servants. The trick is to only pull out the most sweetest stuff when it's really needed. Otherwise, it doesn't hold as high of a value. If you know me, you know that I do have a softer side. My secret is that I only dole it out in small doses. Mom and Dad really appreciate that about me. They know that I will always be a real clown just when they need it. I will sidle up and be sweet and tender only at the most crucial times. My timing is impeccable. Always has been. I knew Mom needed me real bad last week. I could smell it. So I stepped up to the plate.

So what I am saying friends, it is okay to be you. Knock over the trash from time to time. Don't come when you're called. Just as long as when the chips are down, you are there for them. They will love you all the more for it.








Well, we also need some of that Power of the Paw for one of our southern belle sistas over at Southern Fried Pugs. Petunia is having a growth removed today. So we need for her to do well for the procedure, and we also need the lab to prove that it is only a beauty mark. It could be a while before they find out, so they will need our support during the long wait for an answer. Show them the love.

I hope whatever you do this weekend, you have fun. We are expecting some nice weather I am told, so I think I will enlist Sluggo and Brigitte to harangue the parents until they take us somewhere. Followed up by some nice whippy of course.
