8 More Days...

It's gotten warm again, it went up to 9 degrees Celsius yesterday. The ice on the pond has melted, so that means so more ice skating for me. By the way, I'd just like to thank you all for being concerned about me on the frozen pond. It shows that you all really would care about what happens to me if I would happen to break through the ice. However, if Lizzy thought it wasn't safe, there's no way she would let me on the pond (Though I might have tried anyways, he he). To help you all feel better, the ice was a few inches thick and actually could, in fact, hold Lizzy. However, when Lizzy stood on it, it started to crack so she got off pretty quickly. But I, being only 20 pounds (100 less than Lizzy) could really fly on that ice. There's no way it's gonna break under me! The pond is also only a couple feet deep. And if I did somehow happen to fall through, there's hundreds of houses right by the pond, and I could just go choose one to warm up inside, he he. Well now that I've said this, hopefully none of you will be scared anymore to see me running on the ice.

I have finally sent out the last few cards! Now I need to get on all those e-cards I need to send to most of you... Can you believe it's only 8 more days 'till Christmas? It's coming so fast!

I found one of my presents under the Christmas tree!

Only one present for me?! Well, the truth is, Lizzy won't put my other presents under the tree until the day before Christmas. You might be wondering why... Well, let's just say I once tried to take a little peek at my presents early one year. Okay, it was more than a peek. Okay, I might have shred up all my presents. But I've learned my lesson. So Lizzy, will you please put all my presents back under the tree this year? I'll be good, I'll only do a little peek this time.

And while I wait to shred them, I'll stare up at the tree.

We've got lots of nice decorations on the tree. Beads, pine cones, candy canes, ...

Wooden teddy bears, Christmas lights, little things that I cannot remember the names of, ...

We've even got the angel on the top of the tree!

I think Rascal thinks the angel is a bird on top of the tree. Unlike White Cat (Fatso), Rascal will actually climb up that tree to catch that "bird". I'd better guard that tree and make sure she doesn't wreck the decorations!
Hmm... There's just one thing left that is missing on that tree... I know! A little doggy pee to mark it as mine! I'll even mark it extra for my humans, too! (For some odd reason they don't mark anything themselves, except my water bowl!) I'll go add that last thing now.
