Hey Asta, it looks very wet and miserable there, just like here! I'm sure you'll learn to play some carols in a jiffy. If you need me to howl along, just let me know! Or maybe I could be your page-turner? J x

Nothing like a bit of de-stuffing to get you in the mood for some piano playing!

You have musical paws Asta!

Hope you are feeling better now! And the darn slippers are not giving you indigestion still!

love and licks, Marv xxxx

Asta,

Please don't eat any more stuffies, I want you well for my visit, also I expect you to play the piano and sing carols for me.

Tell Mom I will let her know by the end of the week when I am coming to the city, looking toward Saturday afternoon the 8th if you are available.

Great... I shall be looking forward to listening to you playing the piano and singing Christmas carols!

Wow! I've tried playing the piano before, but I'm not very good at it. I bet you'll be great with lots of practice!

I'm glad you're feeling fine now.

We hope you feel better. You look so darling at the piano!

Sophie Brador said...

Asta, With your whirlwind life, I don't doubt you were confused when you looked out the window.

Do you think it was the stuffies or the slippers that pushed your tummy over the edge?

Kirby said...

Hi Asta,

I would love to sing a Christmas carol with you. You are such a musical pup. Singing and playing the piano! I bet you won't need all that time to practice, I bet you'll be a pro real quick. I'm glad you're feeling better after your stuffy destuffing. I throw up after I eat my stuffies too. Something about the stuffing in the terrier tummy, just doesn't mix.

Your pal,
Kirby

Lorenza said...

Hi, Asta.
Sure you chose the perfect day to start playing the piano.
I know you are very talented and you will master it pretty soon!
Slippers?? You know they are great toys but not good food! I really hope your are feeling better now!
Is your mom's birthday?? Happy Birthday to her!!! Did you celebrate it with her?? Let us know!
Have a good night
Lorenza

It's good to see you back playing the piano again, kousin Asta. I remember when you used to play it regularly.

Stay away from eating stuffies. They're yukky. I hope you don't do that again, dear sweet little kousin. Besides, Christmas decorations taste better.

Love and Koobuss Kisses,
Kousin Koobie

the many Bs said...

hi Asta, we think you will make a very good piano player. you can use your tail for a metronome!

sorry to hear that you had to throw up from your stuffy de-stuffing and slipper eating. do you like to eat that stuffy stuff? we think it's fun to scatter it all over the house and then watch mom pick it up. you should try that next time and then your tummy won't get upset!

woofers.

Daisy said...

Asta, you are so talented! And you made some very beautiful music. I wish I could accompany you on my drums.

Amber said...

Hey Asta,what a glommy day over there. At least you learnt how to play piano. I like to hear you play one day.

Amber :)

Scruffy, Lacie and Stanley's Place said...

Hey Girl!!! One day after Big Bruvver went back to obedience college and Scruffy was a pup, Daddy and Mumsie were having a quiet evening reading. Suddenly the piano began to play at the other end of the house. Yep, old Scruffy went out in the living room and did some mitey fine paw bangin' on the keys. Mumsie said he didn't compose anything memorable, but it was a Terrier Original. Never did it again either.
Scruffy might have saved my life today; I'm not sure. Will maybe post it tonight or tomorrow.

Keepin' you in suspense,
Lacie

Stanley said...

Sweet Astaroni Fuzzbutt!

I love to see you at the piano! Bet those keys love being tickled by a talented pup such as yourself. I can just hear those notes ringing out in your clear pupcake voice, and I wish I could be there to sing along with you!

Your mommi mentioned that you snacked on daddi's slipper the other day. I'm glad to hear it's made the Asta colon tour and left the building.

You are a most talented girlie, and I am so thankful that you still have time to be GooberStan's Minister of Culture!

Goober love & extra smooches,
Your STanley Boy
