Our Christmas Tractor Swappy Package!
Today’s Fortune: Family is more valuable than money. But you will have both. This fortune is very true. I do get 12 quarters every week for my allowance, but my family and friends are much more valuable than all the money in the world! Lots of my Ravelry friends have been sending presents to me and Mom, so it has been Christmas for a while at my house. We like celebrating Christmas for several days. Mom was in a Christmas Santa Swap with her tractor girls. We got the best package in the mail while we were gone to North…

My Magnetic Personality….
Today’s Fortune: People are drawn to your magnetic personality. Wow! My fortune cookies know everything! We are finally back from our visit to North Carolina, and I brought my magnetic personality home in our suitcase. A lot has happened since the last time I got to blog. I got to see my brother and sister-in-law, our new grandbaby, and their good yellow cat. I also got lots of presents in the mail while I was gone, so I will probably have to spend several days telling about them all. But first, I have to tell about the good stuff I…

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!
Today’s Fortune: You will receive praise for a job well done. My fortune cookies know everything! They obviously knew that Mom was going to let me decorate for Christmas. She says I did a great job! I am glad to finally get a chance to blog. It has been a whole month since I got to use the computer! Me and Mom have been very busy making stuff. But it is a secret for now, because the stuff we have been making is all on its way to our friends! I will blog about the good stuff I made as…

A Sock Monkey Tour of Salem!!
Today’s Fortune: You will make many changes before settling satisfactorily. This is a good fortune. because I’m already trying to decide what mine and Puglet’s Christmas cards should have on them this year. It is almost time to be sending those out. I have a lot of ideas, but they are all good, so it is hard to make up my mind. It’s good to know that it will be settled satisfactorily, though. I am glad Mom is letting me blog today, so I can finish telling about the Boston trip! She has to work the rest of this week,…

A Sock Monkey Bonanza!!
Today’s Fortune: Avoid scattering your energies. That is some really good advice. I think I should pass it along to Mom. She’s busy working on swappy packages for our Ravelry friends, Christmas presents for friends and family and making a ton of stuff to put in her etsy shop. She is not making very good progress on any of it. I think that is because she is trying to do to many things all at one time. She needs to focus. I am very focused. Mostly on sock monkey stuff. Our Halloween efforts were kind of disappointing. We only had…

Happy Sock Monkey Halloween!!!
Today’s Fortune: A project you have in mind will soon gain momentum. That fortune has already come true! Today is Halloween, and Mom had to get up very early this morning to make us some Halloween costumes, because she “procrastinated”. That means she got busy doing other stuff, and put our costumes off until the last minute. Even though they were done on short notice, I think they turned out very good! I am spending Halloween as a Ninja Vampire! Mom made my cape out of polar fleece, and lined it with some red cotton. She also made me a…

A Tiny Rock and a Great Big Boat!
Today’s Fortune: Others admire your independence. I think that fortune is probably true. I don’t see too many sock monkeys out doing stuff like I do, and people come up to me all the time to say “Hi.” Lots of people said “hi” to me while we were in Plymouth, which is where we went after we finished our witch project. Plymouth is where the Pilgrims first landed when they came to America. I was very excited to get to see Plymouth Rock. I expected a giant boulder. Instead, it was really tiny. I was a little bit disappointed to…
