The Ralphie Report

I apologize for no Wednesday  posting,

 but I spent all day trying to find Ralphie!!

I kept hearing sounds-- 

many of them similar to a mouse, 

BUT there was giggling.

I would get up and go search, 

but would find nothing. 

This went on all day!  

AND to top it all off, 

I could not find my phone! 

I was exhausted from all the searching, 

so I decided to just go to sleep...

Many of you know this, but My sleeping schedule varies from week to week. The past two weeks have been back to sleeping all day. I try so hard to get on a "normal" schedule, but it doesn't happen often. 

When I awakened today, 

my phone was back 

where it usually stays.

I found this very baffling, 

but when I opened it, 

I saw a picture of a big black paw! 

CHARCOAL!!

I scanned through the pictures

 to find that Ralphie had gotten in the car. 

Look at him. 

He even has "the lean".

I looked in my phone again, 

and there were some notes....

It seems that Ralphie

 took the car for a drive, 

and he kept a diary of the adventure.

Ralphie seems to think he went to the ocean! 

He doesn't realize that Middle Tennessee 

is far from the ocean;

 however, there was a note that said: 

look at all of the WATER!! 

I am so happy to see the ocean! 

The next photo said 

he wanted everybody to know 

he was safe...

He found a lifesaver! 

He likes that his lifesaver is named : 

Butter Rum.

Oh, dear,

 it seems the car has crashed 

into the heater! 

ELF DRIVERS! 

Poor, sweet Ralphie has 

so much to learn!

But, all is ok.

Ralphie and Charcoal

 are snuggled together 

taking a nap.

Maybe I can get some work done 

while they sleep...

...until next time...

Love from us all!

Charcoal, Ralphie and Me!♡
