My E-Noro-Mous Coat….
Oh, dear. Poor Noah. I’m afraid he is pouting. All we did today was knit, and he’s not a bit happy about it. He really hates it when it’s not all about him. I started the current hoodie/sweater/jacket/coat project a couple of weeks ago, and could really have had it finished in a few days, if we hadn’t been having so much monkey fun around here. As it is, I have finally managed to finish the back. About the time I cast on for this one, Noah decided he needed to have a blog and it’s been an uphill…

Twisted Sisters…..
Today’s Fortune: Avoid focusing on the negative aspects of the past. That is pretty good advice. I have been seriously rethinking my decision for us to make sisters for me to play with, but I guess now that they are finished, it is too late to do anything about it, so I should just look on the bright side. After all, they are very……..um………entertaining? Early last week, we went Target to shop for sister socks. They had a very nice selection, and I got to hang from one of those plastic things that they put socks on. (I thought it…

Critiquing Irma’s Burger Shack….
Today’s Fortune: Others admire your independence. Well, that seems to be true, but I’m not really sure why. I notice there are not ever any other sock monkeys at the places we visit, which is too bad, because they are really missing out on some good adventures. Everyone likes to talk to me and ask about me, and I make lots of friends. Some people even say that they have never heard of a sock monkey before, which is really hard to believe. Mom said I should start telling people here on my blog about all the good food I…

My funny Valentine…..
Today’s Fortune: The sun will always shine through your heart, into your smile, and warm your soul. This fortune is so true, because I have a very warm soul today!! It was a very busy day, and I had many great adventures. Way too many for one day, so I will just talk about the wonderful things that are all Valentiney. This afternoon, I got to give my Dad his Valentine present! It was a big bag of Ghirardelli chocolates. Those are square candies in three different flavors. He liked it very much, indeed!! He shared some of them with…

I Heart Wal-Mart……
Today’s Fortune: Today will be memorable. Today was not very memorable. It was actually pretty boring. All we did today was work on the sisters. ValenTina is impossible. All she does is boss me around, even though I made sure she got some very sparkaly eyeshadow. She decided today that she needed to extend her stage name. Now she is demanding to be called “Pink Floyd/ValenTina Turner.” Tomorrow is Valentines Day and I am very excited, because this is the first year I have celebrated this holiday. It is all about telling people you love them, which is very nice. …

Guts, eyeballs, and other stuff….
Today’s Fortune: A financial investment will yield returns beyond your hopes. Wow! I can’t believe how true these fortunes are! A few days ago, I invested in some socks to make a couple of colorful sisters for me to play with. They are starting to take shape, and they are definitely way beyond what I had hoped for. Mom keeps telling me, “Be careful what you wish for.” She is very wise. Maybe she can fill in for the guy who writes fortunes when he goes on vacation. The sisters won’t let me show pictures of them, because they…

Me and my Priority life…
Today’s Fortune: Today will be pleasant, your life will be prosperous. That fortune is so true. This was a very, very pleasant and prosperous day, indeed! I got up very early this morning so I could make a Valentine to send to my friend Dharma Marmalade. She lives in a place called “Connecticut”. Mom showed me where it is on a map. It is very far away, but I might visit there someday. Mom got out all kinds of pretty paper, glue, crayons and scissors for me, so I could be very creative. I worked really hard and made a…
