Happy Birthday to Me!!!
Today’s Fortune: Your greatest fortune is the large number of friends you have. Yay!! That is a great fortune, and it is absolutely right! I have friends all over the world, and a lot of them were able to be here to help me celebrate my birthday! I am one lucky monkey! Mom said since it was my birthday, I could choose whatever I wanted to do, so I decided to have cupcakes for breakfast! Mom let me pick out my favorite one, and she put a candle in it for me to make a wish and blow out. We…

The best present ever!!!
Today’s Fortune: A pleasant surprise is in store for you. This is the best fortune ever!! I got a package on Monday. Mom said it was for me, so I got out the scissors and cut it open. It was a birthday present from our friends Manitoba2ct and TwistedCT! They are my Auntie Brenda and Uncle Don, and they live in Connecticut with my darling Dharma. (That is why they have “CT” in their names.) I was very excited to open the box! There was a box of Converse shoes, a card with a monkey sticker, and two presents wrapped…

Sister Mary is in the House!!!
Today’s Fortune: Old friends are the best friends. This is a great fortune, and right at the best time! We got a package in the mail, and when I opened it up, it was my friend Sister Mary Monkeypants!! I have not seen her since she was here last summer. She has been spending the winter with our friend JollyPyrate (I call her my Aunti Naomi) in Florida, but she came in because I am having a birthday soon, and she wanted to be here for the party! I figured she would be tan from spending so much time in…

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 Cool New Friend….
Today’s Fortune: A good deed will make you feel good. I got to do a good deed yesterday. I rescued my friend Guy from the box he was trapped in. Guy is the latest visitor in our Traveling Sock Monkey group. His box arrived yesterday in the mail. It was covered with all kinds of cool stuff. Guy is the last monkey to be visiting on the TSM tour, and he is the first guy monkey we have hosted. All of the other ones have been girls. Girls are fine, but it is nice to have somebody to do guy…

I’m Dharma’s Super Hero!!
Today’s Fortune: You will enjoy doing something different this coming weekend. That is good news! I can’t wait to see what I will get to do, because as far as I know, we don’t have any plans. Something different will be great fun! Speaking of great fun, I have received some wonderful gifts in the mail in the past several days! We got a belated Christmas present from our dear friend Gramma. She is my Auntie Lulu, and she lives in Brooklyn, which is in New York. She is an artist! She made us this wonderful porcelain bowl, with a…

We Get More Visitors!!
Today’s Fortune: You will receive an unexpected visit. Hmmm… My fortune cookie was right about the visitor part, but so far, the visitors have all been expected. My brother (Aaron) and my sister-in-law (Adrianne) came out to see us. They are the ones we stayed with in North Carolina, so we just saw them, but Adrianne had never been to Oklahoma, so they decided to visit. Mom says they are a very cute couple, and I have to agree. This is a picture of what they look like… They got to stay with us for five days. The first day…
