Hello World! We made it through another week and a BIG week it was………………next week this time, we’ll all still be recovering from the holiday or maybe we’ll be resting up for New Year’s Eve? Probably a little of both!
I’m happy to report that my stocking by the fireplace is full of lumps AND Mom assures me that none of them at coal. I’ll believe it on Christmas morning when I at last get to find out for myself (not that I don’t trust you Mom…..).
See that stocking on the left side of the fireplace with the snowman on it? That’s MINE!
According to the great weather prophets we will have RAIN next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday so chances are BIG that we will have a WET Christmas and not a WHITE one. That’s OK……we have had white Christmases in the past…………..like this:
This was LAST year at Christmas!
Since I plan on being INSIDE all day on Christmas anyway (snoopervising the preparation of the turkey dinner feast my Mom and Dad will have Christmas Day) I won’t mind some rain. Just means I can sleep in those boxes that will be left lying around after all the “present opening” so I’ll be JUST FINE.
Crammed in a Christmas box!
Are your family going to desert you for Christmas or will you get to have them home? I’m glad mine will be home because I know there will be a lot of bacon for breakfast on Christmas morning and you know where there’s BACON there’s ME!
Me and Mom cookin’ bacon last Christmas morning!
Happy Friday! I’m in such a good mood today I don’t even mind if it’s MONSTER DAY!
Hugs, Sammy

Hi Summer! I have a feeling if my humans had some family that they’d be deserting me to be with them too…..but we are “THE FAMILY” so we’ll be together on the day. Some friends are coming over this week though – for Christmas movies and popcorn……..I’ll happily share my Mom and Dad for that!
