This is Sheriff Peanut Butter Brickle.  Welcome to the weekend.  It’s about time! What a week.  Don’t you agree?

I hope that you are eagerly awaiting our special announcement on March 1st.  That’s Tuesday, in case you don’t have a calendar with my handsome face on it.  If you don’t have a calendar with my handsome face on it, I doubt that you have any calendar at all because what would be the point? So yeah, Tuesday.

Anyway, you made it to the weekend.  Now, as a member of law enforcement, and one that takes his job very seriously and is a workaholic, I recognize the fact that you may have to work this weekend.  But you don’t work 24 hours a day like I do, so stop with the sad eyes. That’s Deputy Digby Pancake’s job and he’s good at it.  So what I want you to do is something fun this weekend.  Don’t tell me it’s raining, or snowing, or that a volcano has erupted. Your weekend is going to be what you make of it.  Take an hour, even if that is all you have and treat yourself.  Whether it’s a margarita, which I won’t tell anyone, or a glass or bottle of wine, a piece of pizza, or yeah, a peanut butter cookie, whatever…give yourself a good weekend.

There are plenty of things in our lives to complain about, I sure know this.  Like the price of peanut butter cookies, Digby’s smelly feet or Boy Person’s lack of personal space.  Get a bigger couch is all I have to say.  But the things that sometimes we don’t complain about are a big deal.  Like we were able to get up today, breathe fresh air, be with our family and a good night’s sleep.  Your weekend is going to be what you make of it.  Make it a good one.  And don’t forget about Tuesday! Or you know what will happen.
