Well my friends, I’m happy to report that the past couple of days, Elfvis has settled in here and actually has managed to NOT get into trouble. He MIGHT have overstepped a bit in one instance, but not to the point anyone really got upset………….I’ll explain.
This morning after making our bed up in the master bedroom, Mom went about making breakfast and getting ready to decorate the house for Christmas……………after a couple of hours she and I came back upstairs and saw THIS:
Not so bad…….Elfvis had crawled up on the bed and made himself comfy and we figured as long as he was THERE he wouldn’t get into trouble. I could hear him snoring like a foghorn but since my Dad does that every night, I’m used to it – know what I mean?
Then later on while Mom was busy, I checked again and he wasn’t up on the bed…….he had even nicely folded the mini-afghan he’d used and it was at the foot of the bed (like he intended to use it again maybe!). I searched for him and found him in the guest room on the bed in there with his new best friend – a little cat stuffie that had been on the bedside table. They were chatting (or maybe plotting who knows!) and stayed in there whispering for hours. Of course now I’m on “HIGH ALERT” because all that whispering just couldn’t have been GOOD.
The house is now decorated for Christmas so there’s even MORE stuff for Elfvis to get into – not just the decorations but the tree, the presents under the tree……….it’s just a little nerve-racking wondering where he is and what he’s doing ALL THE TIME………but I haven’t heard anything crash to the floor, I haven’t seen things being moved from one room to the other, and most importantly, MY bacon stash has NOT been touched!
Elves might look innocent but you can’t trust ’em……nope…….sooner or later he’ll get up to something – I can feel it in my bones!
