Mommy wuzzed right.  it is winter today.  I steel wunt to play so I taked her kitchen towel outside.

and I givved her this cute face.  so she chased me, but I ran back inside and hid behind grouchy pants

I evin closed my eyes so mommy cant see me.  BUt black and white told her I wuzzed there.  So I had to give up the towel.   I goed back outside and runned thru the snow.  It is fun, but I gitted cold.

but I do like yard play!  mommy canz not resist my face like this win I say "chase me"!

Plus I has one of her socks so she has to chase me to git it back.

                              This is how Max sleeps.  not like a Hound at all.  jest like a Max! With his head up in the air--how canz he stay asleep like this?  my head wud be too heavy to hold up during sleep.

She catched it too!.  It sure gits dark early now and with the dark it gits cold too.  time to go home and snuggle with my mommy.  

Harvest moon

Tonight wuzzed the harvest moon.  mommy sez that it is callt that because it is so bright that the farmers can harvest their crops by the light of it.  and it is that time of year for harvesting.

Canz you wee the full moon behind me?  I mite use it later for hunting at night.  but no more dead ratties, and no more bringing inyting iside the house.  Jest to hunt for fun...in my backyard...for worms only.  heehee.

I jest membered whut comes out in full moons-werewolves and vampires and ghosties ...

I has to run fast as I can back to mommys car.  Lets git out of here fast.  I tink I hear the wolfman.

Do you member the pitcher when I wuzzed hunting ratties with the flashlight?  Well lookit this!
                                                   I finded one!!!

I evin bringed it inside.  Mommy wasn't wearing her glasses and she thinked I bringed in a pine cone-she sed, "oh Percy, I ruv it when you has a pine cone.  It makes your breath so piney fresh".  Thin after I had it for a liddle while mommy commed over and sed it wuzzed time to hand over the pine cone.  She picked it up and shrieked out "EEEEEEK, Percival, WHAT IS THIS?"  She putted on her glasses and sed "oh, no, YUCK!" and throwed it in the sink.  Mommy was not happy with my hunting tonight.  She sed now me, Percy, won't have nice piney breath, but now I will have mouse mouth.  sorry mommy, sorry.
