Planting of Chrisy

Telling Chrisy tail
A long time ago in the year of Mandy and baby Wilmot there was a tree, about  12 inches tall,  it was bought because Mums and dad had just bought this place for a weekender and a place to call home when they needed it, something that happened 14 months latter. 

Mum and the kids came here a week early and Dad was to arrive on Christmas eve when Mums went to get him and Baby Wilmot, cept he didn't have a name then.  Since Dad wasn't getting here till Christmas eve and the big tree was at the other house  Mum felt they had to have another tree at least for Christmas day so thats how the little tree became part of there lives starting as a table decoration.

Over the years it grew and went into bigger and bigger pots till its last decorated Christmas of 2011 when it was getting to big to get in through the door without braking and it was getting to heavy for dads since he is also 26 yrs older then when it first arrived.
So on Thursday Chrisy as she was named was buried hmm planted as both skin kids were here and it was part of there lives for so long and I have had one Christmas under it and lay under its shade when it was on the veranda.

Christmas Catchups


 Well here I was still waiting for Santa but this time at our own tree, it wasn't the usual tree as Mums said we was going to plant it this year as its been in a pot for 25 years.

 We puts my stocking up then I had my night time biscuit before going to bed, as usual I had crumbs all over the place. Mums says I'm either a pretend Ridgeback or I'm getting to many treats.

 Well morning came ands there it was, Santa had been.  Skin Bro and Sis who is staying with us for Christmas told me I could touch and open it as it WAS mine. I'm a little afraid of touching things in the house still.


 MUMMMMY!!! skin kid pinched it, oh ok she just starting it off for me

 Smells good

 Sis had to hold it as it kept moving from my nose. Now if i'd been outside on my own I would of torn its all up buts I was inside. 

O wows it smelt so good and its was lots of treats, I hads gobble dog turkey jerky, Pupcotti biscuits and chicken jerky and turkey biscuits and a cupcake.
This is my favourite a chicken drum stick. it was like chicken jerky stuck on a chewy stick ands I chewed it properly.

Hope you all hads a good Christmas.

Goodbye dear Ailsa

11 May 1998 - 8 October 2012

AILSA

Ailsa's last photo
Today we sent our dear girl to rainbow bridge,  she could no longer walk around and needed help to keep her back legs supporting her, somedays would be good but the time had come when they were becoming few and far between,  saying goodbye was hard as she had lost none of her mental abilities, her sight was still great and her hearing as always was spot on selective, she could still hear a piece of meat drop on the floor even if she wasn't able to get up to get it but she did learn to give a bark to let me know it was there and Hers.  She wasn't a dog who liked a lot of fuss, she was just there, near by, always, watching every move we made,  never out of calling distance.  Goodbye by baby.

Mys update at last


 Wells since I promised an update I cant show you any more Wordless Wednesdays till I do.,  trying to gets Mums to do the blog for me isn't easy let me tell you.   Anyways once more she has photos on her desktop to be cleared. some of themes are from Christmas for goodness sake I mean its nots like we don't do do anything, nots that she ever has the camera ats the right time and even when she does she misses cause she to slow.  Ailsa is plodding along and sleeps a lot buts I done lots of things, like helped with the sheep whens they were getting there woolie coats off, we only gots 4 seep ands I dint chase them buts they wouldn't go into the pens ands kept breaking away so Mums put me by the fence ands told me to stay there so I dids ands the sheep wouldn't pass me. and I didn't chaes them. Ok so there was a loooong lead ons me but I didn't move anyways. gees someone would thinks they didn't trust me or somting.   Ands you see thats last WW picture of me, wells thats a very special bandana I gots on ands thats mums didn't even tells you how goods I did when I gots valuated, I's got pushed about and people alls around me wanting to pat mes ans they hads walking sticks and walkie wheelie things ands things crashing to floor ands well I did goods.  My one weakness is though that I have to say hello to any dogs I see, so tend to pulls mums arm off if she doesn't see it first but the third time I passed the doggies I was a goods girl and didn't look ats them,  Anyways I gots this job now were I go to visit these people in bedrooms, Mums said its called a nursing home buts to me there bedrooms cause they gots bed in them and I tried to sit on one as it look comfy.  Anyways maybe Mums be good and keep in touch withs you all more, we do come visit but don't always have much time to leave a mark.
