Tuesday Telling and Tagged!

I'm Tuesday Telling...
I've been spending time thinking what I'll do to impress Auntie Di...
The paw khrossing should be good...
And a khoy look or two...
Of khourse, I khan't go wrong with the deep pondering look...
I'll break out a bottle of something...
And toast to her fur khoming!
I mean, why would she want to leave T H I S to khome to T H I S ? ? ?
******
Now Mom will be doing some telling since she was T A G G E D
I'm supposed to share TEN things about me
1) Growing up, I went through a phase of wanting to become a nun and/or teacher (okay, quit your snickering on the former)...
2) Then I wanted to be a dentist since I hated the dentist and thought I could be the kind of dentist people wouldn't mind going to...
3) I seriously considered a Physician's Assistant Programme at St Francis College in Loretto...was accepted into the programme but...
4) I'll be 50 in 29 days AND on that day we also will celebrate Khyra's THIRD Gotchaversary!
5) I'm the eldest of four...we alternated girl boy girl boy...all born on Wednesday's...all progressively later in the day...
6) York is the fourth town/city I've lived in...all the places were in Pennsylvania...
7) The only foreign country besides Canada I've been to is England...

8) I don't like melons...

9) I've owned a Ford Pinto, a Mercury LN7, a Pontiac Fiero, an Alfa Milano, another Alfa (164), a FordExplorer Sport, another Ford Explorer Sport, and now a Nissan Xterra...

10) Khyra is the bestest daughter I khould ask fur (HEY, I THINK KHYRA SNUCK IN HERE)!
I'll tag any other Blog Moms that would like to do this one!
******
Speaking of moms...here is mine...with my dad...my brother Steve...
This is Auntie Di's first visit to the beach (Myrtle Beach to be exact) in the summer of 1970...of course, she didn't make her entrance until October 28th of that year!
With Diane and Jim coming to town, Khyra and I might not get to comment on everyone's blogs BUT we WILL be reading them!
Of course, tomorrow is WALKIN' WEDNESDAY so Khyra will be back then!

  2. At least you are guaranteed that your mom will never forget your gotcha day (momma doesn't remember mine)!

    Have fun with Auntie Di! Will she be on next week's WW?

    p.s. Momma is still snickering but then she has heard a few nun stories.

  8. Miss Khyra,

    It got totally hot here too the past few days. I don't feel like doing anything. Yuck.

    Momma got some new soaps for herself out yesterday called Irish Spring and she was singing in the wet room, "When you wash yourself using Irish Spring it's like taking a shower in Ireland."

    Gosh, I hope the windows were shut. Anyway, she said since your DOH is totally ancient that she would know that song too.

    Whatever.

    Slobbers,

  9. Khyra, those are lovely photos of you! Look at those eyes!! Those are interesting facts about your mom!!

    Monty says hi back!

  10. Khyra, you are impressive just being you.

    Since you mom will always remember your gotcha day, you are away of us here - evidenced by the Qannik oops of just the other day. In fact, our human is currently worried that he is missing some pup else and needs to check dates today.

    P.S. - Our hu-dad, since he grew up in Charlotte, spent much of his play time at Myrtle Beach. He laughed at the pictures because it is very very hard to find undeveloped beach like that there.

  13. Nice sharing, we learned a few things about the Mom. And was she behind the flashy box in those pics from the 70s? We hope Auntie Di has a wonderful visit and that the weather cooperates.

  14. How nice to hear some things about your Mom - we might have to have our Mom do that one.

    We can't imagine why Auntie Di would want to come from sweltering Phoenix to cool PA. She'll need a sweater for sure while she's there.

    PS - we thought of your floofiness last night when Mom was stripping Java - piles of floof on the ground!!

  35. We think (and yes, we do have brains) you should go with the "deep pondering look" for Auntie Di.

    Meowm says Pinto's are death traps and your Mom is very lucky to have survived owning one!

    As always, perfect paw placement!

  42. Khyra sweetie - you are too gorgeous for words with your paws krossed like that. Your Auntie Di is going to be totally beguiled! I think she's going to like your weather too!

    I'm going to post about the Boxer rescue next week. Thanks for letting me know about it.

    Tell your moms that it's a good thing she didn't become a dentist people would like going to. No such thing, I don't think.

  44. Hi khyra

    I know so much more about mom... except does she like to polka? In parts of PA, I know it's a favorite. I hope you take Auntie Di on a Wed Walkie and capture it...

  50. Hi, Khyra -

    Your Auntie Di has the same birthday as Mama (Oct. 28th) and the weird thing is that Mama's name is Dianne.

    Love -
