• Our Monkey Family Keeps Growing…

    Today’s Fortune: Your blessings are too numerous to count. That is a good fortune, and very true. I have more friends than I can count, and I get to do more fun stuff than anybody I know. It is good to be me! After I opened my big box from Big Monkey, I helped Mom open the rest of the stuff that finally got delivered on Monday. We had two more Christmas cards from our Ravelry friends! One was from 2MayBoys. Her real name is Dawn, and she is Niklas and Mattias’s mom. Her card has cute puppies and peppermint…

  • Big Fun from Big Monkey!!!

    Today’s Fortune: A wonderful surprise is in store for you. Well, once again my fortune was right! I did not get to blog yesterday. That is because yesterday was the first day we were able to get out of our driveway since it blizzarded on Christmas Eve. It was also the first day we got any mail since last Wednesday. Mom says people in Oklahoma cannot drive on the snow very well. Apparently, this includes the postman. We had lots of errands to run yesterday. We met Uncle Phil and Aunt Karon at a good restaurant, which I will have…

  • My Snow Day!!!

    Today’s Fortune: You have an ambitious nature. I think this fortune is true. I have been wanting to build a snow fort ever since we got our blizzzard, but when Mom finally let us go outside to play in the snow, I wound up doing a lot more than that! Before we could go outside in the snow, Mom made us get dressed in special winter stuff. She made me and Puglet some scarves out of some felted sweaters she has, and she made me a hat out of the toe of a sock. They were toasty and warm, and…

  • Let the Wild Snackfest Start!!

    Today’s Fortune: People will find it difficult to resist your propositions. I am really glad my fortune told me this. I have been trying to get Mom to let me cook for a long time, but she said it was too messy and might be dangerous. But then I pointed out to her that my pal Big Monkey has been blogging about getting to cook at his house, and she said that if Laura was letting Big Monkey cook, then she thought it would probably be okay for me to cook, too!   Except she still did Adult Supervision. That…

  • A Monkey Christmas to All!!!

    Today’s Fortune: You will experience a fortuitous turn of events. I had to ask Mom what that meant.  When she told me, I figured out that my fortune was right again!  Yesterday, we got something called a “blizzard.”  A blizzard is when it snows and snows, and then snows some more.  I wanted to go outside and make a snow fort, but Mom said I would have to wait until it quit blizzarding.  I have never seen snow before, so I am very excited to get to play in it.  Mom says that a white Christmas in Oklahoma almost never…

  • A Christmas Dress for Lexi….

    Today’s Fortune: A simple kindness today will bring you great reward. I sure hope my fortune is right because I am being extra nice to Mom today. She has been wanting to blog about knitting ever since we got back from North Carolina, so I told her I would do it for her. That is mostly because when Mom blogs about knitting, it is really boring, and I don’t want people to go to sleep while they are reading my blog. While we were in North Carolina, Mom knitted a baby dress for our grandbaby, Lexi. This is what it…

  • Me and My Broad Horizons….

    Today’s Fortune: You will find your horizons suddenly broadened. My fortune is right again. I got my horizons broadened a lot last week. Today we did not get any packages in the mail, and I do not have any good new gifties to talk about, so I can finally tell about the good time I had at my brother’s house in North Carolina! My brother has all kinds of fun stuff to do at his house. He has something called “Playstation 3” and something called “Xbox 360”. They are video games. He has a room upstairs at his house called…
