DIY, DIM, DIFM

S'riously.  There are two ways to enter my blankie basket.  DIY ~ "do it yourself", or purrhaps better said as DIM being "do it myself", but then I'd never want to be thought of as "dim" in any way, shape or form!  Or the one I really prefer, DIFM ~ do it for me!  This morning I am opting for the latter ~ after all, it is Easy Sunday and why should I have to work at anything?  And getting into my blankie basket by way of the DIY [or the DIM] method is generally a long, tedious, multi-paw process, and I'll not bore you with those details.  

S'riously.  I sit and wait.  For mine Mommy to simply lift up a corner of the polka dot blankie, easy peasy, allowing me to jump up and in, the aforementioned DIFM method ~ but where is she?  Here I sit, waiting.  Waiting.  For her to notice me.  See me.  Come to my assistance.  Do her job.  Her assigned duty.  Her responsibility to her June.  DIFM mine Mommy.  At this rate I'll be here all day.  Meowz.

  1. Our Mommy is very slow to come to our aid too June. Do you know last night she made us wait for our supper. It was very rude of her. We love your basket and hope that DIFM happens soon.

  3. I bet your mom helped you out just as soon as she was done taking your picture, June. That's a great place to keep warm when it's cold outside.

  7. Go first for the DIY version, but then make such a mess and fuss and noise that the staff team are forced to come to your rescue. Hard times call for drastic measures!
    Have a lovely and assisted week

  16. June, DIFM comes to mind as a first step but I am thinking DIY so you loose no time in that perfect basket because I am sure DIFM will be there much quicker than you think.

  17. Sometimes you just have to do things for yourself, June. Humans are so unreliable.

  20. I suspect that you need to put in a lot more 'meowz' to get your mommy on the case!

  21. Maybe you go over and gently tap your mommy on the foot to let her know you are waiting. Who knows, it could work.

  22. Ava and Target prefer DIFM, too, Juney. We hope Mom was able to help you with yours!

  23. Hi June! I, Marvelous, prefer the LMDI (let Mom Do it). Kozmo like the YLHFM (Yell like He** For Mom) and Jo Jo sighs and does it herself! Keep being AWESOME Sweetie! Your #1 Fan Boy, Marvelous Marv

Java Bean: "Ayyy, a couple of weekends ago our Dada tried to DIY with a couple of patio lights, but the first set didn't screw in properly to their own brackets and the second set didn't line up with the holes in the bracket in the junction box, and by then Dada was so frustrated he decided it was time for DIFM."
