Easter for the Dog Children!

The Rogue Speaks:

Cheating????  This isn't cheating!!  I'm just using a little poetic license!  O.k., so I changed a few words from last year's Easter post.  Give me a break!  Yesterday I had LOTS of very sharp needles jammed in my brachial plexus to alleviate my on-going pain and suffering.  Those needles were loaded with an anesthetic and some steroids to sooth my howling and  screeching nerves and muscles. 

I liked the idea of a pet photo for our Saturday Centus Easter cards, and naturally I had the perfect one!  All sweet and springy!!  It isn't Liz pictured here, but our sweet Precious girl, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge in 2010.  AND I fudged on the word count--so sue me!!  Jenny won't care!  She's nice!  She's a lot nicer than I have been for the last several months.  Being in constant pain made me  MEAN and SNARKY!  What?  You couldn't tell?  Yeah, well I am more than a little opinionated when it comes to politics and stupidity--two words that have become synonymous in the last several years.

This post isn't either one of those things.  It's EASTER, for Pete's sake!  All sunny and warm, with lots of spring flowers in bloom!  So have a wonderful day, and let me know what you think of my card...


HAPPY EASTER!!!


'Tis the evening of  Easter, and all through the den,
The dog-candy wrappers are hemming me in!
The dogs, they are lying like two lumps of clay.
I know they’ll be snoozing the night-time away.
So stuffed to the gills from their quick Sunday raid
Of all the dog-treats we so carefully laid
In small secret places all over the house,
Tiptoeing quietly, just like a mouse!
I know I must teach them on using the broom
To clean up the mess they have left in this room!!!
HAPPY EASTER TO ALL MY BLOGGING FRIENDS!!!

Terrific post, Judie. I loved the card and the poem. I truly hope that after having all those needles jabbed at you, that wretched pain will subside. I am just so sad that you have had to endure all of this.

Wishing you showers of blessings this Easter day. Xoxo

Such a sweet picture! Happy Easter, Judie! Now I'm heading out to a baseball game...

Does the Orioles Bird count as an Easter "peep?"

Hi Judie,

I'm so sorry to hear that you are still dealing with chronic pain. Hopefully, acupuncture will help it somewhat. In the meantime, you've lost neither your humor or your creativity knack. I loved the poem and the doggie pic. Be well friend. I'm thinking of you!

Dreaming said...

I hope your Easter was wonderful and that the pain has receded. Pain sucks!
Thanks for your comment about the Easter Haffies.

Tgoette said...

Great job, Judie! You are such a rebel! LOL! Hope you are feeling better!

Unknown said...

What a cute picture! I hope you have a wonderful Easter!

Francisca said...

Hey there, gal... came by to say hello... and see you're still dealing with your back pains. NO FUN. But now I'm confused: is it the back pain or the political pain in the backside that is making you mean and snarky? I bet both. But you're not taking it out on your nearest and dearest, are you? Take it easy. Hug from the other side of the deep blue sea.

Judie said...

Cisca, I have had you on my mind lately, and will check in with you very soon!!

xoxo

Splendid Little Stars said...

Nothing says Easter like needles being jammed in ... ummm... anything.

I worry about you, Miss Judie.
