Penance

Peyton and I were scolded this morning by both Mandy and Sam. They were moving around the chairs under the big table, and noticed that we had scratched them up a tad on their last trip. It was a mean thing to do, but we were so mad at them for leaving us, that we figured we’d punish them by scratching the forbidden chairs. We were yelled at something awful and Mandy banished us from the dining room and our front window! In order to get on Mandy’s good side again, I tried to bring her a gift. However, in the middle of my plan Sam caught me with my gift. I guess it did look funny dangling from my mouth. It was a rather wiggly gift. He made me drop it and he took it back outside. Unfortunately, he took it out front and I was unable to offer Mandy my worm as penance for scratching the chairs. Then I got in trouble for digging in Mandy’s plants to get the gift. I just can’t win today.

Something’s up. I can tell because Mandy is bouncing all over this house like a bouncy ball. And she left us home alone with all the windows open! I don’t remember ever being left home alone with the windows open. She told us if we touched her fish or her plants while she was gone, she would close the windows and never let us out again. So, we did not touch the plants or her fish. We were good kitties. We are trying to get back in the dining room, but she keeps shooing us out. We will make up with Mandy and get back in there. As soon as Mandy came home, she turned on her music again. Peyton came running in and is now curled up near the music listening. Apparently, it is another musical story and he just loves those. Whatever, I like the music Mandy dances too. I help her and dance with her. Peyton always hides in the closet when Mandy turns on fun music. Sometimes Mandy dances around to the story music, and then we’re both happy. Maybe she will today.

Well, I’m not sure what’s going to happen, but when I figure it out, I’ll let you know. Mandy is bouncing again, so I’d better go see what she’s up too.
