SURPRISES IN THE MAIL

Last week we won a random drawing hosted by Jack and TG  from Daily Dose of Jack.  They were to celebrating the first year anniversary of Jack's book, 
Jack, A book about a dog who doesn't die at the end.

If you haven't read it, click on the Daily Dose of Jack link above to find out how to get your very own copy.

Mom  also ordered a very special handmade 'project bag' for her crochet projects, from Ms. Cindy and Nina, from  
Bird Brains and Dog Tales

Ms. Cindy is one of  the very talented quilters who made the 
Fearless Five Quilt for the Pittie Pack click here to see the quilt.

LO AND BEHOLD both packages arrived yesterday.

We know you all want to read all about both packages .....

SO

Grab your fav beverage and a power  bar. This will be a long post. 

I was napping in my upstairs sun puddle when I was rudely when I heard boxes being torn and paper rattling.

Of course I had to investigate

Let me just say right now my peeps are addicted to the PBS Series

DOWNTON ABBEY.  To say Mom was happy when she found out she won the Downton Abbey book from Jack...would be an understatement.  I just hope  she takes a break from reading it at my din-din time.

I wanted to find out what all the hype is about so I examined the book from front

 to back

 I was caught with my head in the book reading a chapter

 until I heard more commotion so I turned my attention back to 

Mom.

She was admiring the project bag and the cute gray kitty with the pink nose holding a crochet hook

 The inside of the bag is lined with kitties playing with yarn 

 OH MY STARS Ms. Cindy did you know there was a mouse in the

package?

 Don't worry I took charge by popping him with my left hook.

 When he feel to the floor, I realized he was full of nip.

Mom tried to pick him up until she saw my

'don't even think about touching it, back away from the cat look"

I put the bitey face on him so he could not get away

 then I gave him my a few bunny kicks with my powerful

back feet until he hollered "uncle"!!

 I paused for a moment to give mom my best nip induced smile for the flashy beast.

When all of a sudden he tried to escape again.

I had to use my head to wrestle him into submission.  
I'm happy to report  he is now behaving like a mouse in a cat house should behave....submissive!!

Mom and I thank Jack and TG and Ms. Cindy and Nina

for making our Thursday afternoon fun and exciting

Hugs Madi and Mom
