TUESDAY TALE: Mystery Box

Fourscore and 7 years ago early November....my DAD, my former Buddy received an encrypted email message from 2 sneaky
furiends....that we all know and love...and their twice as sneaky 
MOM.

EXHIBIT ONE BELOW


It said, Mr. Bryan we are sending a package to your attention,
which will need your undivided ATTENTION for 87 years.  We cannot send it to Madi or her Mom!!!
BECLAWS Madi's Mom's nickname is nosey rosey and we know for a fact Madi  a box-a-holic with no restraint!!

Dad was given the very daunting task of guarding this package
with his life until at least January 1....but hopefully January 2 or 3.

Dear Sneaky furiends and your twice as sneaky Mom....
Dad took this responsibility very seriously...he would not even
let Mom shake it or me give it a sniff.  This photo was taken
12/28/14...the package is now sits under the tree all alone and pathetic....so we have a QUESTION FOR EVERYONE.

SHOULD WE OPEN ON 12/31....OR WAIT UNTIL January 1, 2 OR 3 AS INSTRUCTED...and can you guess who the sneaky furiends are?

THANK YOU TO THE 5 SIBES FOR OUR CHRISTMAS CARD
IT ARRIVED YESTERDAY!!

MY GUY RAZ

OH MY GOODNESS WHERE TO BEGIN
FIRST OF ALL I MUST SAY
THANK YOU RAZ FOR A WONDERFUL 
YEAR FULL OF FUN beginning with our first
Date to Queen of Hearts
(we thank Easy and Frank for matching us up)

The week before Christmas I rec'd a box full of wonderfulness from
Raz




IT WAS CREATED JUST FOR ME BY
BY RAZ...WITH A COLLAGE OF SOME
OF OUR DATES DURING 2014.
QUEEN OF HEARTS, SOCK HOP,
DRIVE IN MOVIES AND A TRIP TO THE MOON!
WHAT A GUY!!!



 WHEN IS SAW THIS LOVELY PRESENT
I CLOSED MY EYES, GAVE IT A SNIFF
AND HAD VISIONS OF MY GUY RAZ.

RAZ'S MOM HAD IT MADE INTO A CERAMIC
KEEPSAKE CHRISTMAS TREE ORNAMENT
THAT I WILL TREASURE
FUREVER!!

THANK GOODNESS MOM SHOWED ME THE ORNAMENT FIRST 'CAUSE AS SOON AS I GOT A WHIFF OF
THE HEART SHAPED POUCH FULL OF ORGANIC
CATNIP I NEARLY FAINTED FROM THE
DELICIOUS FUMES....



I HAD TO HOLLER AT MOM ONCE OR TWICE BUT SHE FINALLY  GAVE IT TO ME TO PLAY WITH...

I PLAYED WITH IT FOR A SOLID 20 MINUTES KNOCKING IT ALL ACROSS THE FLOOR...CHASING IT THEN LICKING IT TO DEATH. AS YOU CAN SEE THE POUCH STARTED OUT WHITE...EITHER MY SLOBBER IS GREEN
OR MY SLOBBER TURNED THE 'NIP GREEN.


Raz darlin'  you selected the most special things for my
eyes, nose and tummy. Friskies Beach crunch :shrimp, crab and tuna treats are my favorite.  Every night after 
supper Mom gives me about 8 or 9 morsels 
(yes she counts them)

KISSES, HUGS AND PURRS TO YOU
MY GUY
I LOOK FORWARD TO PAWTICIPATING IN 
MORE CAT SCOUT EVENTS IN 2015.
