Hey person. Can you help me look for something? I can’t seem to find them anywhere. I’ve been looking all over and I don’t know where they are.
It’s been awfully windy lately. I’m thinking maybe the wind blew them away.
***
Or maybe those bluebirds took them. You know, the ones that invaded my puddle.
That one in the tree looked like he was ready to swoop down and take whatever he wanted.
Oh here they are! They were here all along. You had them stashed on your computer, person. I think you were hiding them from me. My new awards!
In the past few days I’ve been nominated for three new awards.
Two Versatile Blogger Awards
and a Liebster Blog Award
The Versatile Blogger awards came from:
For the Love of My Dogs at http://loveofmydogs.com. Harley, Scarlet, Chelsea and a cat named Roory are featured on this blog. You can find useful information about and for dogs here and then there’s my favorite part – recipes for nutritious and yummy dog treats.
Dogdaz at http://dogdaz.wordpress.com. Dogdaz is a fairly new blog and definitely worth visiting. Louise, Sofie Bear, and the cats are featured on this blog. In addition to the stories there is some extremely creative pet photography.
The Liebster Blog came from Jimmie Chew at http://jimmiechew.wordpress.com/. If you haven’t stopped by Jimmie Chew’s blog you definitely need to do it. You have to be a very special cat for me to say anything good (being that I’m a dog and all) but Jimmie Chew makes the grade. He’s studying to be a model and there are lots of photos of him on his blog. Words won’t do him justice. You’ve just got to see for yourself.
I think my person hid these awards from me because she was afraid they would go to my head. She says that since I’ve received these awards in the past, and I have so many great blogging friends, many who have already received these awards as well, I should follow in the footsteps of my friend Sweet Kitten at http://cosytravels.wordpress.com and put up a blog roll instead of passing these awards on again.
My person says it might take her awhile to get the blog roll together though. She promised me a Facebook page when I got 100 Followers, and she owes me.

YAY! Congratulations Bongo. But to be honest, I thought you was looking for the beans. It was that reference to it being “windy.” ROFL
Bongo
January 9, 2012 at 3:53 pm
Rumpy, I’m ROFL with you after reading your comment. I think the wind blew the scent in the coyotes’ direction – those beans are now twice baked.

Luna, thanks for stopping by and commenting. I don’t know what it is about those computers. It seems like out people stash all kinds of stuff in them. I don’t know how it all fits in those little boxes.

Congrats Bongo! Maybe not a taste as regular treats, but outstanding decoration for your blog. (and given with as much warmth as a new doggy sweater)
Bongo
January 9, 2012 at 4:46 pm
Thanks Karen. Doggy sweater? Is that a new kind of chew toy?

Yeah, those are the ones that got those mysterious holes – but are still comforting to sleep on when it’s scary / thunderstormy….The dog across the street actually wears a sweater – but he’s old and doesn’t have much hair…not tough like you!
Bongo
January 10, 2012 at 6:09 pm
Karen, I wouldn’t mind creating some mysterious holes in one of those.

I’m with you Bongo. A blogroll sounds pretty good, but since I’m technically challenged like you it would also take me a long time to get one up and running. Who do we know who could do it for us? Your human perhaps? Meanwhile Kudos to you and happy sniffing and blogging.
Bongo
January 9, 2012 at 8:06 pm
Thanks Sandra. My person is a geek, which I think means she knows how to do a blogroll. The only problem is she’s also a busy geek so I have trouble getting her to sit down and do it.

Love the post- you’re quite the creative pup, Bongo. Congrats on your awards; we love your blog! We just uploaded some great photos to go along with our dog treats section that we’ll be updating tonight 🙂
Bongo

Thanks Deanna. I hope there’s some yummy treats there that I can get my person to make for me.

Thanks Brown Dawgs. We don’t often see bluebirds around here, so my person and I were surprised when we came across a tree full of them.

Thanks Marinakanavaki. None of it will ever go to my head – as long as my person keeps doing what I say.
