The Iceman Cometh. . . . .
Today’s Fortune: Many a false step is made by standing still. I’m not sure what that fortune means, but I know that many a frozen monkey is made by standing still. When it is icy and snowy outside, it is important to keep moving. It has been pretty boring at our house for the last couple of days. That is because we were busy having an ice storm. Followed by a sleet storm. Followed by a snow storm. Mom would not let me go outside to play, because it was really slick and messy. She took this picture from the…

My Public Service Announcement….
Today’s Fortune: Today is a lucky day for those who remain cheerful and optimistic. This fortune is completely wrong. Me and Puglet are always cheerful and optimistic, but this was not the luckiest day we have ever had. Mom has been sewing all week, and she has not been any fun at all. I wanted to make some chocolate chip cookies, but she was too busy to be Adult Supervision, so me and Puglet were on our own for snacks. We got out our shopping cart and went shopping in the kitchen. We found some cheesecake flavored Jello pudding, some…

Our Monkey Quilt Takes Shape…
Today’s Fortune: Little often makes much. This fortune is true. For several weeks now, Mom has been swapping quilt blocks with friends in her Ravelry Pincushion Group. She has made several blocks and sent them out, and we have been receiving blocks little by little. Our latest blocks came from our friend thegirlpurls. She is my Auntie Lori, and she lives in California, with all those happy cows. She sent Mom three more blocks for our quilt. Auntie Lori also sent some extra fabrics and some very pretty sparkaly copper thread that Mom will use in her projects. And she…

Our Big Night Out at Big Truck Tacos!!
Today’s Fortune: In every enterprise, consider the outcome. This is very good advice. I just wish I’d gotten this fortune before I ate so much at Big Truck Tacos last night. We decided to go to Big Truck Tacos last night because they were celebrating their first night of being open with the new late hours. I read on Facebook that we should wear our Snuggies, but Mom said she did not have time to make me a Snuggie, so I decided to wear my pajamas instead. I found my pirate hat, which looks really good with my pajamas, so…

My Dad is Famous!!
Today’s Fortune: Your lost item will be found. That is a very good fortune. I can’t seem to locate my pirate hat, but if the cookies say it will turn up, I will just not worry about it. I still have plenty of time to find it before Talk Like a Pirate Day happens again. We have had a busy weekend. We rescued monkeys from Buchanan’s, but they need some surgery before we can tell everybody about them. Dad spent today taking some pictures. He has lots of cameras, and really enjoys photography. He is pretty good at it,…

The JDT Monkey Shines Club!!!
Today’s Fortune: Now is the time for your leadership skills to shine. Another great fortune! I enjoy getting to be the leader! Usually, Mom is the leader, but she does not feel good today, so I am on my own. She took me to Michael’s last Saturday, and she let me pick out some good stuff. I got stuff to make a really good valentine for Dharma, and I will probably start working on it this week. Mom also got me some more magnetic letters for the fridge, because Santa didn’t bring me quite enough to spell all the stuff…

I am a TV Star!!!!
Today’s Fortune: Others are attracted to your endearing warmth. This is a true fortune. Mom started me a Fan Club Page on Facebook a couple of days ago. I already have 50 fans, so my endearing warmth must be attracting people. I wanted my own Facebook account, but Facebook does not let you have a page if you are a sock monkey. We could probably get around that by pretending that I am a regular person, but Mom reminded me that we do not break the rules. Plus, she likes being Adult Supervision. Yesterday morning I got to go to…
