HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!
(This means people too! Not just my furry pals!)

Well they worked hard in the office this month getting cards and calendars out to everyone in addition to working on group renewals! They were talking about that Identity Theft problem again. Seems like it is in the news all the time these days. I've been pretty good this month. I didn't have to stand in the corner at all! I've been working hard at catching that doggone squirrel. I wish I had a ladder to climb that tree he always jumps to. Maybe Santa will bring me a ladder for Christmas so I can climb that tree. My people put some corn in the yard and the squirrels are burying the kernels all over the doggone place. Maybe all that planting will distract the squirrel and he will slow down so I can catch him. Hopefully the squirrel is not putting the corn in the ground to feed that vole (these are also known as field mice) that I can't seem to catch. Well that's about all for now. I sure hope Santa brings me toys this year because I need some new stuffed animals. Have a safe and happy holiday season! Remember don't leave your puppies out in the cold weather. If your house gets a new puppy or kitty during the holidays remember that they are living things, please take care of them! I had some pictures taken with a little tree and they are below.

*I wonder how many presents I will get?*	*How will he get in the house?*
*The tree smells good!*	*One last smell before I go to bed.*
*It's sad to leave. It's my bedtime.*	*5:00 AM....Just woke up!*
*The tree is reeeally pretty!*	*What was THAT?!!!*
*I hear a noise!!*	*I wonder if there are any squirrels in this tree???*
*I THINK I SEE A TAIL!!!*	*IT'S GOING TO THE TOP!!!*
*I better check the top of it out!*	*OH NO!!...THEY TOOK THE ANGEL FROM THE TOP!!!*
*I think I'd better call my lawyer to find out what to do about this!*
