Santa Watch
Skid has been eagerly waiting for Christmas and has been watching the skies for Santa.
After last year's mishap when he visited Santa and tried to bite his helper, I thought it would be better if he stayed home this time. Instead, I suggested he write a list of what he wanted.He had only four wishes:
1. More food 2. More Bones 3. Make Scott sleep on the couch so there is more room on the bed to cuddle with Mom. 4. Make it so that Poe and his claws are banished to the barn.
He has written it down and has left some water and (dog) cookies out for Santa. (He did sample the cookies though, just in case they were poison)
Nothing else to do now but wait and be on his best behavior.

Toys
This may not look like it, but it's actually a hug from my Mother and Father all the way from California. 
My parents send us Christmas ornaments every year for our tree. This year I opened the box and found one that looked just like the Fisher Price barn I played with as a child. I can just imagine my parents shopping and seeing the little reproduction and realizing that they MUST send it to me. I loved my original little barn. I played with it every day and enjoyed putting the animals in and out of it.

Blogging Games
Sigh. I've been tagged. Here's the deal. The Dig-it Fetch-it Herd-it blog written by my friend Sarah has tapped me on the blogging shoulder and made me "It" in the 6th photo challenge.
The Rules? You gotta go to your photo archives on your computer and go into the 6th folder and count up to the 6th picture and post it on your blog along with the story that goes with it.
FUNNY - here's the picture that came up...

It happens to be a picture of Sarah's dog, Gyp! Seems a little fishy if you ask me. Perhaps Sarah has been prowling around on my computer. No real story except to say that Gyp was taking a lesson here at our farm when I snapped this.
Now for my victims...
I look forward to your entries.

My Mission in Life - by Poe Glen
I was busy in the basement, slapping insolent mice around when I heard some new noises coming from upstairs. I ran up to see what kind of trouble was brewing and to see if I could get in on it when I couldn't believe my eyes. There was this huge tree in the house and it had LITTLE DANGLY THINGS!
Everyone knows it is against the ancient cat laws to allow little dangly things to just hang there. Acting like they rule the world. I knew I had just been handed a quest and it was my job to knock them off their cocky perch.
One down, 29 more to go.
Halfway through my work, I realized there was also some paper, just sitting there- and nobody had shredded it yet. Well, even tho I was already quite involved, I made room in my schedule to start on that.
While in the midst of my mission, I smelled this awful, horrible scent wafting in my direction. 
Damn! Foiled again! A temporary setback but I will not be deterred. I will continue when the smell has faded.
