War of the Window…Continued

The War continues. My goal is to break Mandy down, so she will not fight me about this window. I want to sit in that window and look at on the world, and those hideous blinds are in my way.

After Mandy’s moat, I knew I had to be clever in my next move. I watched her and plotted. I waited until just the right moment to make my move. Sam drained the moat, so I knew that my time would come soon! Peyton tried to warn me that this was a bad idea--he said it would guarantee my defeat--but I thought this strategy would allow me to win the war!

When Mandy was in the rain room, I opened the blinds! Meow! Elway strikes again! Just before Mandy jumped out of the rain, I closed the blinds; I showed her that I could control the blinds.

I was a little surprised when Mandy did not admit defeat right away, instead, she fought back. Mandy filled up the moat, and gently picked me up. I should have known something was coming, because Mandy has been yanking me out of the window, but as soon as she had me, she set me down in the moat! She said maybe she would consider a crocodile for her moat. I guess this was not such a good idea. Peyton said Mandy won this battle, but I'm not willing to admit defeat. However, whenever I get in the window, whether I play with the blinds or not, I always end up in that moat.

It's time to re-evaluate my tactics. Any suggestions?

Mandy and Sam are sure glad tax season is over. I don't know what that means for us, other than my breakfast was almost two hours late! Sam is still sleeping, and Mandy isn't on her regular schedule. I don't know what will happen today.

Well, there is a strange noise outside and I want to go check it out.
