Be More Dog July 13, 2013

Seize the Frisbee. Enjoy the day. Be more dog.
Today you are you!
That is truer than true!
There is no one alive
who is you-er than you!
Shout loud . . . “I am lucky
to be what I am!
Thank goodness I’m not
just a clam or a ham
Or a dusty old jar of sour
gooseberry jam!
I am what I am!
That’s a great thing to be!
If I say so myself,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!”
~ Dr. Seuss
Aah . . . that’s better!

Cute poem. Happy birthday!
Thanks! Here’s to NOT being a dusty old jar of sour gooseberry jam! 😎
Happy Birthday Nancy!
woohoo to doggies the world over! 😀 <— in reference to that awesome video!!
Thanks! My birthday started with a *BANG* ~ a single *CLAP* of thunder! A big *BOOM*
Glad you enjoyed the video. It’s precious.
Happy Birthday Nancy!
Thanks, William. I am glad I’m not just a clam or a ham. 😉
I loved it!!! Thanks! 🙂
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I have one in a couple of days. 😀
Thanks, Ela! I hope your special day is memory making, picture taking, and birthday caking FUN!
Mine has been age faking as well. I’m now “21+” and holding.
Thanks for the plan, Nancy! 😎
Ela
Cheers!
Happy Birthday Nancy! Happy Birthday to YOU!!!!
The video is very cute.. 🙂
Thanks, Pix. We’ve had a FUN day . . . full of laughs and good cheer.
Happy Birthday, Nancy! Celebrate!
Coincidentally, I saw that advert the other day for the first time!
Most ads do “nothing” for me . . . I fell in love with this one. We’re going to have to teach Tigger to Be More Dog. 😀
Happy Birthday, Nancy! YAY. Celebrate big time! 😀
We had a fun day with my sister’s family, including 2 nieces (aged 20 & 16) ~ lunch out, bowling, swimming, and Scram Scrabble. The weather cooperated by POURING when we were inside and PAUSING as we moved from Point A to Point B.
It gave us an hour in the pool before thunder chased us back inside. *BOOM*
I think it was a 21 gun salute since I am now 21+ and holding. 😉
Always have been, be more dog. Had them as faithful companions for decades. Makes me chuckle to think a cat believes it can be more dog. We can. Cats can’t . 🙂
Tigger has a bit of “Be More Dog” in him. He won’t chase after sticks or catch Frisbees . . . but he will chase TREATS and jump for TREATS and catch TREATS with his paws. 😀
Woot, Tigger! 🙂
Loved the video. Happy birthday Nancy – celebrate well.
Thanks, Don. We celebrated all day ~ BFF made me pancakes for breakfast and then we played the rest of the day with my sister’s family. FUN in the SUN (and the RAIN). 😎
Happy Birthday Nancy . . . enjoy being you!
That video is awesome!
Thanks, Barb . . . I am happy to be who I am. So much better than being a jar of sour gooseberry jam. 😉
Thought you would enjoy the video.
Happy happy birthday Nancy. The video is precious and made me laugh, Hey, how come WE got the present on YOUR birthday?
Love,
Jan
Thanks, Jan! You got presents because it’s your UN-birthday!
Oh my dear! Happy Birthday, Nancy! So happy to be able to wish you a super-dooper-filled-with-joy-and-sunshine birthday!
That’s a super dooper wish, indeed. Thanks, Vivian. It’s been a great day filled with laughs and good old fashioned family FUN.
We went out to lunch with my sister’s family, bowled with two nieces, went for a swim (between rain storms), played games, and ate ice cream and cake! Just super! 😀
You have the best days, Nancy! Love your mind-set.:)
Here’s to enjoying the best that life has to offer . . . right here, right now. 😀
Happy Birthday to youuuuu. Woof!
Thanks, BB! Woof!!! 😀
Happy Birthday Nancy…and have a great new year.
Thanks, Patricia. Fantastic FUN from first to last. 😀
The first time I watched that I felt most outraged for the cat, Nancy. But it was so funny I had to laugh 😀
I haven’t shown it to Tigger yet . . . shall have to get his thoughts on it. Generally, he’s “coldly indifferent” to images on a screen no matter how “moving or fetching” they might be. 😛
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Each year brings exciting new adventures..
Thanks, Kate. I had a great time AND managed to blow out all the candles on my cake.
Life is full of new adventures. Even if we’re in the midst of a been-there-done-that deja vu experience, stuck-in-a-rut so deep that we can’t see over the rim, life is filled with surprises. 😯
I hope you had a wonderful birthday, Nancy. I like to celebrate mine over a few days, so I hope you’re still doing so! I love the photo, and you definitely convey an attitude of joy in the moment and playfulness…that makes you ageless! The cat being a dog video was brilliant! Great way to convey a wonderful attitude. 🙂
Yes! Each “Birthday Week” calls for a several day celebration.
This year, a friend from water aerobics took me to lunch at a Greek Cafe on Wednesday ~ one I’ve been meaning to try for the past 3-4 years. Friday, I had a “therapeutic” massage. 😛 Yesterday, was the B~I~G all day celebration with BFF and my sister’s family.
A very happy birthday to you 🙂 xxx
Thanks, Cin! It’s been a lovely Birthday Week . . . filled with FUN and GAMES. 😎
Happy b-day! So glad you’re not the gooseberry jam 🙂
You’ve probably posted on it before, but I didn’t realize your birthday was in July. Mine too – I’m over the hill now (my older son’s card said so- it’s hilarious…I may scan it in and write a post about it!)
Thanks, Janna. I “knew” your birthday was in July, but it slipped my mind until you just mentioned it. 😉
Like you, I’m over the hill . . . but I’m also around the bend, and through the woods.
This was fun to read! 😀 Happy Belated birthday, Nancy!
Thanks, Marie. We have one more “birthday event” planned . . . dinner at Primo! We’ve never been before and it sounds awesome.
Happy belated birthday 😉
Thanks, Tok. We had a fun day with my sister and her family.
