Bear Necessities for Monkeys….
Today’s Fortune: Promise only when you can deliver. That is a good fortune. I should show it to my Mom, because she has promised to make me and Dharma some sweaters as soon as she finishes her Noro coat, which should be today. We hope. Since we are going to be getting good sweaters, we thought it would be a good idea to review the book that has the sweater patterns. It is called The Knitted Teddy Bear. Don’t let the title fool you, though, because there are some really good things to make for monkeys in this book. The…

I lose my shirt….
Today’s Fortune: Don’t lose sight of what you want. I need to keep that in mind. I do wish my fortunes would give me some advice on how to make what I want happen, though. What I want is for Mom to hurry up and get me some clothes made. She needs to make some for Dharma, too, because Dharma has started borrowing mine! I don’t mind sharing, but she asked if she could wear my new bowling shirt while we played Farm, and she hasn’t offered to give it back yet. At least we got her a straw hat…

My hard work pays off….
Today’s Fortune: Your hard work is about to pay off. My fortunes are always right. Today is no different. My hard work paid off in a big way! I took yesterday off from blogging. I was just too tired. Yesterday we had a thing called “Daylight Savings Time”. Daylight Savings Time is supposed to give you an extra hour of daylight. As far as I can tell, we didn’t get an extra hour of anything. Instead, we lost an hour of sleep, which made us all feel tired and cranky. Mom says it takes a day or two to adjust…

A grand time at Grand House!!
Today’s Fortune: A quiet evening with friends is the best tonic for a long day. I spent a quiet evening with friends last night. Well, sort of quiet. Me and Dharma and Mom and Dad went to Grand House for dinner. Dharma and I got to dine by candlelight. It was very romantic. We had the shrimp lo mein, which was very tasty. We had shrimp lo mein on Thursday night, too, but it was from a different place and it was nowhere near as good as Grand House. We shared a plate. It was very romantic. After dinner, we…

Dharling Dharma……
Today’s Fortune: You will be invited to an exciting event. The exciting event is that Dharma Marmalade is finally here!! She arrived yesterday, just as my Mom was leaving to meet with one of those people she calls “Client”. Dharma did not have to wait on the porch, but she did have to stay in her box on the bar in our kitchen, because I could not open the tape by myself. I kept her company until Mom and Dad got home. Dad got home before Mom did, and he helped me open the box. We used a thing called…

More monkeys!!!!
Today’s Fortune: There is a true and sincere friendship between you and your friends. This is a great and true fortune. My wonderful friend Dharma arrived today, and I almost didn’t get to blog tonight, because I have been showing her around our house and helping her get settled in. She will be here for a few weeks, and I will show pictures of her tomorrow. She is beautiful!!! My Mom has wonderful friends, too!!! On Tuesday, I was still waiting for Dharma to get here. This was the day after we got the hula monkey box from Pam, and…

My Bobble-Headed Friends….
Today’s Fortune: A friend is a present you give yourself. I have given myself several friends over the past few days. Mom has had to work the last three days, so I have been a latchkey monkey, just watching for packages to arrive. On Monday, the postman arrived while she was at work, and he left a package on the porch. I was worried that it was Dharma, and that she would not think I was a very good host, leaving her on the porch and all. When Mom came home, she brought in the box. It was not Dharma.…
