Mummy J update.. hi furiends 🙌🏻.. it’s Mummy J & I just wanted to say hi, & thank everyone for their beautiful messages & stories 🥰
My apologies for being MIA, & not responding to everyone’s beautiful messages.

It’s been just over a week since I was able to come home, after spending 10 days in hospital over Xmas and New Year.

It was definitely not the way to start a New Year!!

But being home is the next challenge- things are pretty tough in Womble Land.

I have so many ‘ouchies’ I honestly don’t know how to sit or lie down.. & the worst.. trying to play with my little Wombles.

I am incredibly frustrated living within a ‘broken body’ when my head & spirit are so ‘abled’.

Being home still means I am broken- the fractures and torn muscles, according to the surgeons, would take over 3 months in a ‘normal person’ to start ‘healing’, but someone like me.. maybe double that 😔 And hopefully before the next ‘snaps’.

Check out the skeleton.. that pretty much shows all the fractures & ouchies 😢

Probably the most uncomfortable, even worse than the spinal fractures, is my torn hamstring.
I literally snapped the hamstring muscle off my butt bone, which has made the muscle ‘curl down’ about 4cm from where it should be joined.
My lungs would not cope with surgery.
And my bones are too fragile to reattach it.
So, I’m kinda stuck with a permanent ‘snap’.

I can see my muscles & endurance wasting away, and it’s so upsetting.
I WANT to move, I WANT to walk, and I REALLY WANT to play with my Wombles.

And be a good Mum.

The good news is that the snapped hammy is the opposite leg to my sewing leg!
Which means.. tomorrow I am going to start sewing again!!

Designing & sewing is my ‘happy place’ (other than the Wombles of course!!)

So.. keep your 👀 out.. I have been designing several new Funky Fido collections.. including one for Tumi’s and also my exciting ALERT range.

Thanks again for your friendship, love, support & stories of your daily adventures.

Please keep them coming.. it allows me to ‘travel’ outside my home!!

Love you ❤️
Mummy J

Oh mum.. I know you want to start sewing again, but did you have to turn me into a Westie quilt 🫣!

** Well Paddi.. its 40 degrees Celsius ☀️and you looked like a baby polar bear!
And if you stayed still for a hair cut you wouldn’t look like a quilted zebra, would you!!

Furiends.. Do you do your own grooming?
I have groomed my westies for the past 17 years.. and Paddi can’t stand still for more than 3 minutes 🤣

Does anyone else have ‘twinkle toe’ pups that dance this way, then that way,
Then round and around..
A shave stroke here
And a shave stroke there

A brush of the noodle knots
And then a snip with scissors

And the new fashion trend..
Semi shaved,
‘Quilted’ zebra Wombles!!

At least mummy J knows how to sew.. probably because she can hold the fabric down with pins 🤭

Love you ❤️

Hi everypawdy, it’s me Angel Jasper
I’ve been helping Santa with his list.. and wow.. we’ve been delivering a LOT of cheese to very good puppies this year!

But, I’ve been watching my naughty-ometer... & quite a lot of you are on the naughty-ish list this year 😂
There was a lot of snack stealing, hole digging, muddy paw prints and stubborn walking!

However, I convinced Santa 🎅🏻that a ‘little naughty’ was ok 😂..
So, ‘most’ of you will have received some wonderful treaties!

But, I need to update you on what’s happening at Womble Woods.

You may have noticed that Mummy J hasn’t been posting a lot.. and hasn’t sent videos and photos of the finished Womble xmas grotto 🎄🌟

Mmm.. where to start 🤔
You all know Mummy J is probably the most stubborn Westie mum there is.. with the most ‘crumbliest of bones’
Well, she was determined to be ‘home for Christmas’ this year.
And let’s just say this was a HUGE challenge!

4 weeks ago, she fractured 5 ribs and 2 vertebrae.
Then 2 weeks ago she tore her hamstring tendon from her butt bone.. excruciating (& made it very difficult to continue setting up the Womble Christmas Grotto).
And then the ‘cherry on top’.. Xmas eve morning she bent over to pick up Winnie’s collar from the floor.. and SNAP ⛓️‍💥
Something had broken in her back and ribs 😢😢

And Christmas plans were in CHAOS! 😩

Nope.. I am not going to spend Xmas day in hospital this year!! (Now that’s westietude for you!!!)

Traditionally we have a German feast at Mummy B’s parents house on Christmas Eve.. but as Mummy J can’t sit or walk, her German family brought the Xmas feast & sackfuls of pressies to Womble Woods 🎁

But today, Mummy J is back in hospawtal 🥺, having lots of scans and tests.
And trying to work out how to get on top of all the pain, & manage it without surgery.

Ahhhh sh !!!
That’s just too many ouchies.. and Santa didn’t listen to any of our requests

C’mon Mum, get better soon… cos you can’t welcome in the New Year from hospawtal, or without Winnie & Paddi on your knee!
Sending love to all our furiends,
Above 🌈 and below ☀️ the angel bridge 🥰

🌟🎄May the magic of Christmas, and the joy of furiendship find its way from our home to yours ❤️
Special memories are what makes ocssions like Chrsitmas so memorable.
These memories are what makes your heart sing when you look back at these images, years from now, as you reminisce about those who are here and those who are no longer.

This year we had fun creating a ‘green box’, taking many silly photos, and joining them together to make our ‘Womble Christmas Present’!

As the Grinch so rightly says:
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
“MAYBE CHRISTMAS, HE THOUGHT, DOESN’T COME FROM A STORE.”
“MAYBE CHRISTMAS... PERHAPS... MEANS A LITTLE BIT MORE!”
- DR. SEUSS -
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

Mummy J always says:
Make memories today, so they will sing in your heart tomorrow.

Wishing all our wonderful Furiends and Furmily a magical Christmas which fills your belly with joy and your heart with peace and happiness 🙏🏻🐾🎄

Love ❤️ woofs 🐾 & Xmas waggles 🥰
Mummy J, Mummy B, Winnie Poohs, Roxy Soxy Loxy, and Paddi Bear (& of course Angel Jasper 🙏🏻)

🌟 Are you familiar with the story of the 3 Wise Westies? And more impawtantly the special Howliday called Cheesemus?
Once upon a tail, there were 3 Wise Westies: Winnie Poohs, Jasper and Paddi Bear.
They were white as snow☃️, full of mirth ☺️ and brought joy to all around them🥰.
Each evening, whilst pawtrolling for echidnas and pesky possums, they would stare longingly into the stars above, past the Southern Cross, at the strange cheese shaped light 🌛shining brightly ✨ in the dark Australian night sky.

But one clear December night, with the cicadas humming softly, and the distant rumbles of Wombats foraging, and Koalas munching Eucalypts, Winnie Poohs noticed a twinkle from a star above.

And the twinkle suddenly exploded with a blanketing shower of light.

Her joyous woof echoed aloud, as her tail wiggle then waggled, and she splooted in splendour with her ears twitching wildly, and nose sniffing upwards, waiting for her fellow Wise Westies to join her in staring at the wonderous miracle in the night sky.

For indeed it was a Christmas miracle, unlike any seen before..

Curds and Whey had given birth to a new Fromage.. a sweet Baby Cheesus.

The 3 Wise Westies howled in chorus at the miracle above.
For this could mean but one thing.. a celebration near and far, across the nation and foreign seas.
A feast for all..
a Gouda Day..
a Cheesus Day!
They set to work squatting 💦 and cocking 💦, marking 💦 and weeing 💦, for p*e mail was backlogged with the seasonal delays, and the Canadian mail strike!
Cheesus Day was nigh.. and the 3 Wise Westies sat by the door, awaiting the arrival of furmily and furiends bearing celebratory gifts of Gouda, Frankfurts & Lemon Myrtle.
And THAT dear furiends is the story of the 3 Wise Westies & the birth of the sweet baby Cheesus.. and the story of CHEESEMUS!

Wishing you a Woofmas filled with love, woofs and waggles❤️💚

One.. two.. three.. breathe.
And take in the smell of the gum leaves 🍃 on a dewy morning.
Listen to the birds 🐦‍⬛chirping their morning songs.
And feel the warmth on your cheeks as the sun ☀️ replaces the moon 🌙

Life just seems to be rush rush rush.

Yet, look what is right in front of you.. and take a moment to just enjoy it 🦋🐝🌟🐾

Thankyou Winnie Poohs for reminding me that every moment is precious, and every morning is a new beginning.

One.. two.. three.. breathe.

Have you stopped yet.. just for a moment..

Close your eyes, and imagine you are sitting next to Winnie Poohs at Womble Woods.

Now get your butt inside.. cos I’ve made you some scones with lashings of jam and cream, and a cuppa☕️

Love ❤️ Woofs 🐾 Waggles 🥰

17 years ago a little white fluffy Westie was born to this world.. and he was to change my world and my life.
Jasper, I thank you each and everyday for choosing me to be your Mum 🥰
I know you loved me with all that you were ❤️🐾
I knew who I was when I was your Mum, and without you next to me, I have lost not only you, but a part of me.
So, now I look to the stars to see you.
To feel you in the gentle breeze that blows.
And close my eyes and remember your smile, your little wiggle waggle prance, your head sleeping in the nook of my neck, your whiskers ticking my eyeballs, and the way you made me feel complete, and never alone.

Thankyou Jasper, my little Minion, my soul mate.

May you be celebrating this special day with party hats 🥳 and cheezels 🧀 in the sky, and a huge tray of sausages with all our angel furiends!

Winnie, Paddi and I are sharing your favourite icecream.. lick, lick, lick

Happy heavenly 17th birfday my sweet boy 🥳🐾

The colour of red, white, purple or black

Thinking of those who never came back
To the many who have served their country
We owe each and everyone the greatest debt

To show we will never forget
