Down on the farm…..
Today’s Fortune: If your desires are not extravagant, they will be granted. I love it when my fortunes give me me good news! I had to look up “extravagant”. It means “exceeding the bounds of reason, as actions, demands, opinions, or passions.” I think pretty much everything I want is within reason, except maybe the big John Deere tractor, so it sounds like I am going to have my desires granted! My desires were definitely granted last week. Mom bought me a whole package of farm animals! They are plastic, and they are very, very good. I got pigs, and…

Adult Supervision is no fun…..
Today’s Fortune: Don’t ask, don’t say. Everything lies in silence. This is not a good fortune. I have been silent for way too long this time. I have not been able to blog since last Sunday!!! That is a whole week!! All because Mom worked all week, and she has been tired. When Mom is tired, I don’t get to blog, because she will not let me use the computer without Adult Supervision. She says there is all kinds of bad stuff on the internet, and so I have to have her nearby while I blog. That is not very…

Miss Mary Mwnci Arrives from the UK!!!
Today’s Fortune: You are always missed in your absence. This is so true. I’ll bet a whole bunch of people have been missing me, because I have not been able to blog for four whole days!! Mom has been working a lot, and she has not had time to let me use her computer. I hope my blog friends still remember me! A lot has happened since the last time I blogged! We have a new Traveling Sock Monkey at our house!! Her name is Miss Mary Mwnci. You do not pronounce her last name as “muh-win-see”, though. It is…

The Hamburger Helper Cheerios NASCAR Guy….
Today’s Fortune: You will have an unusual experience. My fortune was right again. Last week, my Mom made something called “Hamburger Helper.” That is a thing that comes in a box, and is supposed to help your hamburger. It was not very helpful, because it was not very good. It comes in lots of flavors, but this one was called “Beef Pasta”. My mom makes something from scratch that she calls “Beef Noodle” that is much better. But Hamburger Helper does have something that Mom doesn’t. A cool box. This box had a picture of a Cheerios NASCAR guy on…

Jungle Eggs and Easter Cows…..
Today’s Fortune: Great treasures are in store for you. This fortune is one of the best ones I ever got! Yesterday was Easter, and the Easter Bunny came to visit, just like Mom said he would. I did not get to see him, but he left lots of good things, and he hid them very well. There were lots of jungle eggs with funny animal faces. I found a pink hippo hidden in some tall grassy things. There was an orange tiger hiding in the hedges. Mom gave me a nice little basket that was just my size to put…

A Taxing Week……
Today’s Fortune: As the purse is emptied the heart is filled. I think Mom is inclined to disagree with that fortune. Her purse is going to be mighty empty on Wednesday, and she does not seem to have a very glad heart about it. I have had almost no fun at all this week. Mom has been working on something called “taxes” all week, and it makes her very cranky. Taxes are where you have to send away a big chunk of your money. Mom says that we are sending them to “Uncle Sam.” I have not met Uncle Sam…

Another Treasure Hunt…..
Today’s Fortune: A change of scenery will give you a bright new outlook. This is a good fortune, and it is also very true. Mom took me to the flea market last weekend, and it did a lot to help cheer me up. Mom says I’m back to my old self, whatever that means. Dad was out of town last weekend, so me and Mom had to go to Buchanan’s without him. We missed having him along, but we had a very good time, anyway. I found all kinds of interesting things. The first thing I saw was a tall…
