whew


Well that wasn't fun.


Okay, so actually it was.


MOUSES!


But BUSY, I tell you.  Busy!  Busy, busy, busy, for sure.  THERE WAS SO MUCH TO DO!


But we got 'er all done.


Whew.


MOUSES!


So first there was Christmas Eve.  Saffy fell asleep on the job.


Of course.


He was SUPPOSED to stay up, waitin' for Santa.  He was SUPPOSED to take the first shift.


He was NOT supposed to fall asleep under said tree, only to wake up and find Santa had already been.


MOUSES!


Then came Christmas mornin'.  Tree ornaments to whack about.  Ribbons to shred.  Wrappin' paper to lie on and crush.


You know, those sorta things.


We were goin' full tilt for a while, Saffy and I.  Once the nip in the biff bags kicked in, mayhem ensued.


Saffron tried his best to get into the box his biff bags came in.  "If I fits, I sits!" he yelled out loud.


"But you DON'T fit, Saffron, my man.  That there box is way too small for sittin'," I replied.


"Then I'll wear it as a hat," is what he then said.


And did.


MOUSES!


Christmas Day afternoon and evenin' are kind of a blur.  There was nappin' and snackin',  and MORE nappin' goin' on.  I kinda remember Peepers walkin' about wearin' a lampshade like a hat, and...


No.  Wait.  That was Saffron, I think.  Saffron with a gift box stuck on his head.


Did I mention 'bout how we cats were thoroughly nipped?


MOUSES!


So that was Christmas.  Next came Boxin' Day.


Now BOXIN' Day is the day to wear a box on your head.


MOUSES!


Peepers left a couple big boxes intact just for us, and...


Well most of the day was spent restin'.  Restin' in boxes and recoverin' from nip, and...


Oh, who am I kiddin'?  Saffy and me?  WE WERE BOTH STILL WELL NIPPED.


To tell you the truth, we still are.


My gosh that nip was good stuff.


Santa really did well.


MOUSES!
