Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody from Koobuss

Snow On the Pumpkins

Hi Everybody,

Here's what I saw on my walk today. Humph. Oh, oh!! What was that last one? I really don't know what to make of all this.

It's Cold

Hi Everyone!

It's cold. Brrr... But I'm ready for it. That's all I have to say.

I Have Returned

Hi Friends!

Look who showed up on my deck today. From the looks of things, he will be here a while. He even has a hot beverage to keep him comfy. Humph. He thinks that if he keeps waving at us that we will like him better. Looks pretty cold to me. Brrr...


And, look at this, will ya! Something is wrong here, or is it normal for geraniums to have buds on them when the temperature is this low? I really don't know anything about this stuff.

Stuck On a Stick

When's Hunting Season?

Hi Friends,

Will ya look at these guys! They are having such a good time here, pawtying day and night, having all kinds of fun at their annual reunion. Why do they have to have it at my house? They even posed for a group picture! What nerve!! All I can say is that they better have their fun now because pretty soon some of them will be dinner while the orange round-headed ones will be dessert. Hehe.

Anyway, I've decided to take some lessons on how to catch them. The bird that I saw run out of our yard, across the street, and through our neighbor's yard the other day looked exactly like this one on TV. It might have even been him! He had a green head and neck with a thick tight white necklace on. I tried to chase him, but to no avail. Catching him is going to be more difficult than I at first thought, so I have to pay strict attention here to what they are saying and learn as many pointers as possible. This is an urgent matter that requires my immediate attention. I must be well-prepared so that I am ready the next moment I see him. Of course, the next time that I see him I hope that my mom is not on the other end of the leash like she was the last time. If I have to keep dragging her around with me over the river and through the woods then I'll never catch him. But that's another story.

Veterans' Day

To all veterans and military personnel, Thank You!

I'd Rather Be Dense

One night last week when my mom joined some of her old (?) high school classmates for their monthly Girls' Night Out dinner, one of them remarked that she was getting shorter, but her feet were getting bigger. My mom immediately thought, "So that's where it goes!"

Then the other day she went to get a bone density test. That is something humans do to determine how thick their bones are, which is fine with me because I like thick bones, especially thick bones with lots of meat on them that I can chew on for hours. Anyway, my mom (who is shrinking almost as fast as the stock market and is down to five feet, three and a half inches tall) learned a couple dismal facts there while the test was being done.

Such as, as you age your body shrinks except for three body parts that keep growing until you die. They are your feet, your ears, and your nose. Yikes!! She was expecting the doctor to come in and say, “I have bad news for you. You are getting shorter and your nose is getting bigger!” What a nightmare!!!

So, here she sits, staring at the computer and getting shorter by the minute. Glad I don't have to worry about that. I'm already short. Hehehe..

Confusion

Will someone please explain to me what season it is? Is it spring or is it fall? Am I coming or going? I wish I knew.

Tardy Trick or Treater
