• I Want Monsters for Christmas. . .

    Today’s Fortune: Your heart will always make itself known through your words. That is a really good fortune! I have been wondering how to make my heart known for a few weeks now.  I figured the best way to do it was a letter to Santa. I have a great big platter of cookies ready for Santa. This year I am asking for something pretty important, so I want him to have an extra special treat when he gets here. I also wrote him a letter. Here is what I wrote: Dear Santa; I hope you and Mrs. Claus are…

  • A Big Box from Big Monkey!!!

    Today’s Fortune: You shouldn’t overspend at the moment. Frugality is important. Well, that fortune is confusing. My last fortune said that an unexpected payment is coming my way, which was very exciting, but now I am not supposed to overspend. I am not sure what a “frugality” is, but it must be expensive if I have to save all of my quarters to get one. I will check into it, though, because if my fortune says it is important, it probably is. Speaking of important… a big box arrived at my house a couple of days ago, and it was…

  • My Sock Monkey Christmas Tree!!!

    Today’s Fortune: An unexpected payment is coming your way! Wow!! That is a great fortune! I’ll bet that means that Santa is going to bring me a bunch of quarters! I have worked hard to make the “Nice Monkey List” again this year… I hope he has noticed! A few days ago, I got to decorate the house for Christmas again! That is one of my very favorite things to do, and Mom let me do almost all of it by myself this year. Puglet assisted me. He hung the ornaments on the short branches. The first thing we did…

  • Bedlam at Uncle Phil’s House!

    Today’s Fortune: Keep up the good work. You will be rewarded. I sure hope this fortune comes true. I have been keeping up all of my good work, and I haven’t been rewarded much at all. In fact, Mom has been so busy that I haven’t even had a chance to blog for nearly a whole month. A lot has been going on around here, and I have a lot to blog about, if Mom will just take her job as Adult Supervision seriously for a while. Last night, we went to Uncle Phil and Aunt Karon’s house for a…

  • My Creepy Pumpkins!!!

    Today’s Fortune: You will enjoy doing something different this weekend. Another great fortune! It’s not every weekend that I get to carve a pumpkin or get dressed up for Halloween! I got out all of my carving tools and my pumpkins, and set up in the kitchen to start my jack-o-lanterns. I carved out the lids of both of the pumpkins, just like I did when I carved my sock monkey jack-o-lantern pumpkin last year. These pumpkins were much thicker and much fresher than the ones we bought at the grocery store last year. Mom says there’s no telling how…

  • I Heart Orr Family Farm!!!

    Today’s Fortune: You are admired for your adventurous ways. I think that fortune is probably true.  I have had so many adventures the last three weeks I have not even had time to blog about them. And everywhere I go, people seem to be admiring my adventurous ways. Halloween will be here soon! It is one of my very favorite holidays, and Mom and Dad took me pumpkin shopping so I could pick out some really good ones for jack-o-lantern carving. We did not go to the grocery store this time. Instead, they took me to a place called Orr…

  • A Word From Our Sponsor. . .

    Today’s Fortune: You will be rewarded for a job well done. I sure hope that fortune is true.  I am also hoping that I don’t get fired from my Official Spokesmonkey duties.  It has been two weeks since I was at L&B Yarn Co., and I am just now getting a chance to tell everyone about the cool new stuff I saw there there.  My Dad was on vacation last week, and we spent so much time having fun, I did not even get a chance to blog.  We did lots of great stuff, and I have lots to tell…
