Mack

i'm very curious about that woooodpile that's at the edge of the Armstrongs back lawn, by the woods.  Every mornin whenever one of the Armstrongs takes Mack out for a walk he goes to the wooodpile and snifffs.  He doesn't sniffff anywhere else.  Just there.  i wonder why?

A mystery

Goood news!  mr. Armstrong is feeelin bettter.  Now it's Craig, Rachl's older brother, who is home sick with a bad cold.  i guesss that's not so gooood news for Craig. 

it snowed last night!  This mornin i looooooked out Rachl's bedroooom window and saw mrs. Armstrong out in the snowy backyard, walkin Mack, the old yellllllow dog.  (my cage is on Rachl's dressser which is by Rachl's bedrrrroooom window.)  mrs. Armstrong was alll bundled up on accccount of it bein so frigid cold outside.  Mack wandered over to the old woooodpile that's at the edge of the woooods and began to sniffff the woooodpile.  Mack does that every mornin when one of the Armstrongs takes him out for his morning walk. What is it about that woooodpile, which was covered with snow, that Mack likes to snifff it alll the time?   it's a mystery!

Yestrday

Wow!  What a lot of rain yestrday!  And wind!  Rain and wind!  i sat in my cage that's on Rachl's dressser and watched the rain pelt the outside Rachl's bedroooom window.  The maple treee -- the one that nuttty squirrrel lives in -- kept swaying back and forth in the rain and wind.  At one point, the wind was so fierce, it caused one of the leaflessss branches to falllll to the rain-soaked lawn.

i sniffled and sneezed all weekend.  i feeeel bettter today, though.  Now mr. Armstrong is home sick.  i hope i didn't get him sick.  i'd feeeel just terrrible if i got him sick.

Now it's me!

Oh, no!  Now it's me who's home sick with a bad cold!

Now the other twin is home sick

The twin who was home sick yesterday is back in skooool today and the other twin is home sick with a bad cold. Not sure if it's Betsy or Susie who's home.  But it's one of them.

Rachl

Rachl was home sick yesterday with a bad cold.  She stayed in her bedrooooom nearly allll day.  So i couldn't get on her computr.  She's back in skoooool today.  Now one of the twins (one of the human twins, that is, not one of the goldfish twins) is home sick.  i think it's Betsy, but i'm not sure.  i can never tellll those 2 girls apart. 

Actualllly, come to think of it, i can never tellll those 2 goldfish apart, either.

The littttle starfish

To make a long story short, Rachl put the littttle starfish back up on top of my refrigerator.  But it fellll offff again when i was runnnnin on my exercise wheeeeel.  So she put it back up on top of my refrigerator, but it fellll offf again the next time i was running on my exercise wheeeel.  So she put it back on top of my refrigerator, but it fellll offf again when i went runnnin so, finallllly, Rachl toook the littttle starfish out of my cage and set it down on her dresser, just outside my cage.  She leaned the litttttle starfish against her lamp in a way so i can seeee it through the bars of my cage, but it won't keeeep falllling offff everytime i go for a run. 

A close calll!!!

i was runnning on my exercise wheeeel this morning when i nearly had an accident.  The littttle starfish that Rachl placed on top of my refrigerator fellll down from the refrigerator.  The starfish bounced acrosss the cedar shavings that cover the floooor of my cage and nearly smacked into me!  if i hadn't leaped offf my exercise wheeeel, the starfish would've hit me!

That thing is dangerous!  Very pretty to looook at but dangerous!
