Today, I am listing 5 words from Mom’s August 12×12 story. She didn’t like this story very much, but she kept on writing it all the way to the end. (It’s not about me, so I’m not crazy about it either.)
When Mom finally wrote the last sentence, it made her laugh out loud. Mom said, “Well, that was worth the trip, I guess.” and “This story doesn’t sound like me at all!” and “Technically, that’s still a street nap, even though you’re sort of on the sidewalk…”
1. Dance – I dance for treats.
2. Head – My head is tiny. So is my brain. Ummmm…I’m not stuck under there. I’m fine. …Really.
3. Bounce – Mom is teaching me to sit on my mat, so that (in between dancing), I will not bounce around too much. Someday, I will learn that whole sitting still thing….
4. Dripping – I don’t like getting wet.
5. Peanut Butter – Peanut butter, yogurt, a smashed banana, and some honey make a yummy ice cream treat. Mmmm….

Great five, Cupcake! I don’t really like dripping, either. And I’m having a lot of trouble finishing my picture book stories these days, so good for Mom for finishing hers, even though it wasn’t quite what she wanted to write.
Just start talking to yourself, plus talking to the computer, B. mom complained to the computer the whole time she was writing that story!
Love and licks,

That ice cream looks delicious! And I love the photo of you under the sheets. Happens all the time at our house too. xox
Thanks, BR2B. Mom digs my nose out of the sheet so I don’t suffer-cate under there.
Love and licks,
C
Must be a mumma thing – I do that too 🙂 x
You look like a great dancer. We should have a dance date. And then end it with ice cream.
Thanks, B. A date would be fun. I’ll wear my red tutu and you can wear your ThunderShirt. …just in case.
Love and licks,
C
I’m still wearing that stupid thing. My person keeps telling me the thunder should be gone in a few days. I’m not sure if I believe her anymore.
So good your mom finished the 12×12, Cupcake and you made it quite obvious that you didn’t like it at all, hehehe. Pawkisses for a Happy Monday 🙂
Thanks, AW. I love paw kisses.
Love and licks,
C
We love the photo of you under the sheet, so cute Cupcake 🙂 Those banana fings look super yummy 🙂 xx0xx

Thanks, M and A. Mom will let me stay under there, but not my nose. She says I need air. Really?
Love and licks,
C
That ice cream sounds very good! Your dancing looks amazing.
Thanks, C. The ice cream is super yummy. Plus Mom puts in a cookie for a handle.
Love and licks,
C
Cupcake you are just SOOOOOO huggable and cute! I love your raincoat….Mom says I should have one….I’m thinking maybe it’s easier if I just don’t go out in the rain!!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
You’re smart, S. Rain is nasty. You can use your litter box on a rainy day. I have no choice! I need a litter box….

If those 5 words came from your mom’s new story, that sounds pretty interesting and I would read it 🙂 I don’t know what she was thinking, writing a story that isn’t about you, but it might be good anyway 🙂 I’ve had a lot of trouble finishing things lately, too, and I’m hoping now that school is back in session I’m going to magically become organized and start accomplishing things right and left 🙂
Thanks, S. I hate to tell you, but usually when school starts LESS gets done, not MORE. If that works differently for you, I’ll be surprised. Thanks for playing WouldYouReadIt. xoxo
Love and licks,
C
That under the covers thing. It feel like that too today! Ugh! But that peanut butter ice cream treat? I may have to give that a try. Good luck with the mat.
Thanks, G. I think Rocky would like those banana/peanut butter ice creams. Sometimes, when I am stubborn and rolling around in the road on a street nap, Mom says the word, “Ice cream??” and what do ya know, my street nap is over.
Love and licks,
C
Rocky, yes! He’s got a very diverse diet. 😉
Those five things sound fun to us, though the dancing one is a bit out there for us. Whee wonder if Mummy can make special ice cream piggies can eat?

Thanks, N, B, and B. I think instead of the peanut butter and yogurt, your ice cream might need to be made of kale and alfalfa!!
Love and licks,
C
I like the five words and how she used them in the post. What I’d like to know is the last line and what made her laugh. The sitting thing is hard– but Archie has special posts where he loves to sit — one is the top of the couch, where he can view all door and keep his eye on the neighbors and the mailman, who always gives him a treat.
Thanks, P. Your mailman has TREATS!??? I love him. I’m pretty sure my mailman is trying to kill me. Mom checked the last line of the story, and it won’t make you laugh without knowing the whole rest of the story.
Love and licks,
C
High Five to you today! Those words are good ones that must go together for a good story! and maybe a movie as well!
Thanks, R. A movie!!? Yay! Now I’m even more annoyed that it’s not about me! I coulda been a star!
Love and licks,
C
Coowooowooool raincoat Cupcake! Me and Nalle have yellow ones toooowooowooooo!
Thanks, K. The three of us would look like rainy day triplets! Cute!
Love and licks,
C
So, the secret’s in the complaining, eh? Well, I DON’T WANNA WRITE! THIS IS THE WORST STORY EVER! I CAN’T GO ON!!! 😉 Great post Cupcake, Prima Ballerina. 🙂
Thanks, E. Mom loves ballerinas. That’s why she can’t stop buying me tutus.
Love and licks,
C
Cupcake, Mom Linda wants to to know if you like cats??? IF yes, can you come visit us in CA?? She wants to give you a great big smoochie…I say…ewwwwwww!
I am a little bit afraid of kitties, S. But I LOVE smoochies!! That would be worth the trip.
Love and licks,
C
You are such a good dancer, Cupcake. I’m thinking that maybe if I get a fancy dancing skirt like that I’ll be a good dancer, too. What do you think?
P.S. Your eyes are absolutely beautiful in your last three photos. I’ll bet they have the power to melt your mom’s heart!
Thanks, Miss HL. The skirt definitely gives my dancing a professional edge. Mom calls that look The Dead Eye. that’s a good thing…. Right…?
Love and licks,
C
Well, I’m not at all sure about a story without you in it but well done to mom nonetheless. That ice cream sounds delicious. Might have to come and join you for some
Thanks, LL. A story without me is a snoozefest, as far as I’m concerned.
Love and licks,
C
I just can’t find my writing motivation, so good for mom for finishing her story!! Your frozen treat sounds yummy.
Don’t worry, HLAD. Sometimes your mojo goes on vacation or hides under the covers. It’ll be back soon – well rested and ready to rave.
Love and licks,
C
You dance so beautifully cuipcake, you definitely deserve those peanut butter treats:-)
Thanks, M. Mom used treats to teach me to dance. Ice cream is the best treat of all.
Love and licks,
C
Perhaps you could make an offer: you share your icecream if your mom finishes her story quickly, goes for a long walk with you and lets you visit your favourite swing in the park!
Great plan, K. I love making deals. And I LOVE the swing in the park! But I’m not sure Mom would love my ice cream as much as I do….
Love and licks,
C
I think I like no. 5 the best! Yum! 🙂
I hope you’re having a fun day,
Your pal Snoopy 🙂
Thanks, S. Me too! I love treats, but ice cream treats are the best.
Love and licks,
C
I love the dripping photo – not that you’re dripping, Cupcake. And would you mind telling ‘Kinley that peanut butter is good? She’s not a fan. Nor of bananas. But she loves her people lots. 🙂
I’m with Kinley on the people-love. Sometimes a cuddle is just the best thing of all!!
Love and licks,
C
Oh Cupcake, you lost me with that last picture. Can I come over for a playdate and have one of those peanut butter treats PLEASE?!
If you came over, Cocco, Mom would have the cleanest floor in the world. I am a floor licker, just like you!
Love and licks,
C
nom, nom, nom, that treat sounds like something we collies would love. Be careful street sleeping! 🙂
Don’t worry, collies. When a car comes, Mom drags me to the gutter.
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Awww! So super cute in your little red dress! Arent you the cutest thing! Looks like you guys had a fun day!
It’s always fun around here, KDB. Getting dressed up means something exciting will be happening.
Love and licks,
C
You dance so lovely! We love peanut butter too! I love your raincoat too!
Thanks, guys! Peanut butter treats are my favorite. Also banana. Also chicken. Also bacon. Also cheese. Also…. I love treats!
Love and licks,
C
Oh Cupcake, you have lots of LIKES! I like how you think!
Treats are yummy. ‘Nuff said!! xoxo
Love and licks,
C
Treats are the best! My Mommy just bought me a new toy today at KMart. It is a tennis ball fetch. It is made like a tennis ball, but it is long like a stick. Nikita has not put it down all day and she won’t let Bella have it at all! She even fell asleep with it under her chin so Bella could not snag it. She must really love this new toy!
New toys are wicked fun! Yay!
Love and licks,
C
Love the rain suit, Cupcake!
Thanks. It’s always good to be prepared!
Love and licks,

[…] Nap – I was halfway to my first street nap of the season, but Mom stopped me. She said the word, “Don’t you dare.” and […]
