McNugget Sketch

 

Bhindi here. Did you know that I am an
artist? This is my first drawing of Vinny,
who I have nicknamed McNot-Nugget for
his lack of "Nuggentia." Not only that, he
never grew up and remains a silky baby boy.


I am in my "representational phase" since
"LackMacNuggets" runs so fast he cannot sit 
still long enough to pose for my "realism" phase.
And, as the WheekGrass turns, he is a mystic!
Mom was recently given some mystic Sufi videos 
to watch by someone who visited Turkey and India a long 
time ago and when the whirling dervish music started 
Mr. Mystic McNo-NuggetZ was eating a BIG leaf of 
romaine lettuce in mom's lap: His jaw dropped and he 
remained in a genuine Romaine Trance until the music 
and whirling dervishes were over, then resumed chewing.


That is why I drew him.
We are not exactly certain what we have here.
What do YOU think?
Fairy, we are off to read your newest blog post
now. Love you. Love you ALL! Nighty-night,
don't let the dervishes bite!
Yours,
BhindiBoy


P.S. We noticed that GOOGLE and PICASSA and lots of things have started doing things we do not understand like turning certain words red and underlining certain words and we cannot even leave comments on our own blog. We don't know why. We didn't do it!

ARTIST'S RENDERING OF NEW CAVIARY

Dedicated to our wunnerful
Auntie ConniElfPie.
NOT taken from a chair!
Only taken from a dream.
Note to our Auntie Connie
(PRIVATE: NO, YOU SHUT UP!)
Thank you.

FOR LOVE OF A FAIRY ACROSS THE SEA...IT'S JUST ME!

 

YUM-YUM'S RUNABOUT IN OUR NEW CAVIARY

 

This is Vinny. I'm on my bright red castle.
YumYum is on Runabout, a free range Pig.
Without me. It's not right. I am going to escape.

 

Bhindi here, the cerebral Socrates of the herd.
I will think of a way to get out. Thinking now.

 

Oh, I never thought of thinking. 
I think I shall eat then. Eat then think.

 

Eat. Think. Yoga. Escape.


 

Eat. Think. Yoga. Watch YumYum,
run and popcorn, wild and free. 
Why not me? Why not Vinny?
Can you see lil'me on far right and
big *Bhindi in Habitat Central?
Captives in Paradise.
You may need to press on
the pic to enlarge it, we are
such wee little piglets...

 

Eat. Think.  Twiddle Toes Yoga.
How sad & pathetic.  Cry...then Twiddle Toes. 
Look at feet, one white, one black: I am beautiful.
Don't the bars break your heart?
Such humility should never be confined,
such magnificence withheld from our needy world.

 

Bhindi: "I'll correct this injustice! Just get a
wee bit closer, YumYum, just get your bum
a wee bit closer..."
 

Eat. Think. I can't do yoga because my **
are too ** to stretch...they just POP-OUT!
Sharpen teeth. Eat. Think. Sharpen Teeth!
 

I am too cute to be this lonely.
Ate. Thought. Yoga. Looked at toenails.
Looked at one white foot, one black foot.
Looked sad. No intervention. Alone to
meditate on beauty of me. 
While YumYum runs free...
Trust Bhindi to OCCUPY PIG STEET!
 

C'mon, so close, SO CLOSE....
YumYum, you look concerned, are you?



 

WHADDA-WHADDA-WHADDA?
Where'd he go? Come back here, Pirate!
 

YUM-YUM SIGHTING!
SHIP'S AHOY,
I SPY THE PIRATE
WASHING UP
IN HIS CUDDLE CUP AS
MOM PROCLAIMS NAPS4ALL!


And so, dear reader, all three piggies had
their turns running wild as "free-range pigs" 
and we even opened lil'Vinny's cage door 
which turns into a ramp and covered it with
a cuddle cup insert so he was able to run full-throttle all about then in and out of his cage which pleased him no end because then he realized all that
Socratic philosophizing on the merits of wheatgrass vs. romaine lettuce, carrots, and yellow peppers had done him good after all!
Love you.
Mu-AAHH!
From PandaPig's New Free Range


p.s. mom update, some good days (?) some less so.
not able to take migraine pain meds and feels like
got a bullet in my head and hard to see, read.
little energy, but always welcome thoughts I have
ALL OF YOU DEARS,
will blog and email when able...some days
feel frustrating and defeated; others the 
warrior inside dances until I just flop into bed 
with renewed determination and ecstatic,
exuberant joy! Most of the time feels
like I have a bullet in my head. And that 
makes me CrazyHeadWoman. Please forgive me.
It has changed my personality to have
a bullet in my head. But this, too, shall pass.
And I have all of you. What  more could
I possibly ask for? Only more gratitude
to be grateful for the good stuff and
make nothing of the rest...
You complete me.

LUV YOU

 

LOVE YOU ALL!

ART'S ON FIRE

 

Dear Everybody,
VinnyGuinea here keeping mom company in my sleepsack on her lap. She can barely see or type. She drew this a long time ago.
She has Traumatic Brain Injury and it acting up bad. Tomorrow a
social worker coming to see if she can get in-home care and bathtub bars and disabled stuff installed, so she can live here but with safety of a nursing home with a person coming to help, too.
This taking forever to type. Lotta caregivers coming every day
so no worries, they not leaving her alone! 
And you know we all being good.
But she can't email. Or think. Maybe draw. And breathe.
On a good day. And drink water. Eat. Like that.
We know you understand. 
Lot of talk of traumatic brain injury these days.
Nobody knows how bad it really is unless you got
it or living with someone who does. She can't count money.
But it don't stop nobody's heart from loving.
THAT'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW!
LOVE,
VINNY-GUINEA


P.S. we know you love us and will want to email beautiful cards to make mom happy but she having hard time reading and understanding right now and cannot answer so please send
cards via 
"cloud-kisses"
Thanks!

^^^^^^HAVE A LOOK and you MODS
out there...that music is going to sound
awfully familiar just so you know...
but this is SO worth watching:
WE'VE ALWAYS LOVED RICKY G,
WE'VE JUST NEVER LOVED HIM 
MORE!
P.S. and mom has never worn makeup
in her life...as to how often she even
uses shampoo and what-not...
(shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...............) 

GOOD MORNING!

DEAR FRIENDS,
I am now being called by many names such
as Bhindi-Swirly-Shark-Fin 
or, if Edwin is here,
"Mangosteen"
and it is becoming confusing.
Mom just calls me Bhindi Shark-Fin,
feeds me, scritchy-scratches me
especially on my snout and then
I stretch out, roll over on my side,
kick out one leg and she scratches
my tummy, then she can call me
whatever she wants but by then she
is giggling because I roll and stretch 
out and purr and run through all my
tunnels just sticking my snout out
for treats and scratches.
But my swirls are growing into whorls
and my, well you know, man-parts
are growing into bowling balls
and mom is thinking I should join
a league and -
Oh, that's a metaphor?
For what?
Good night, mom.
Get some rest the next few days.
The rest of you are invited to scratch my snout.
Especially Fairy!

Wanna Little Almond With Your JOY?

 

Little Almond JOYOUS looks like she is
growing into a big girl and CD3 (who goes
by many other names such as Pixie) has 
"socialized" little Joy and Millie Bea so
fast we are amazed as both came from
pretty rough beginnings. Vinny does not
seem to be growing at all but we love him
small and speedy and silky-smooth 
while Bhindi...
(HOLY HORNED OWL HORK!)
and today after a nice brushing which
he purred through while munching his
Romaine lettuce, YumYum reminded
mom that he sure IS STILL THE ONE!
(And the nail trim was rescheduled.
According to YumYum, "until NEVER!")
IS THAT APPLAUSE WE HEAR?
INDEED.
WHILE WE ENJOY TONIGHT'S WINTER

YOU'RE STILL THE ONE!

My Dear YumYum,

With all the new kidZ on the block you might feel like you haven't been receiving as much attention as you used to. And I know this year has been harder on you than anyone. Because you were there. And you grieved the most. Especially once you all came home and it kept happening. That's why we got you VinnyGuinea, thank you, Aunt ConniElfPie. Then we got you BhindiGuinea. Now you have two friends and you aren't lonely, you're still the alpha male and, by the way, YumYum, YOU'RE STILL THE ONE!

                              Will you tuck me in tonight?

It's getting late and we really should be getting to bed...

Sweet dreams, piggies, YumYum will be back in a bit. No worries.

Love You.
Gratitude Infinite.
