'Twas the Day Bephore a Phiscal Phree Phall

'Twas the day bephore disaster when all through the House,

all the Congress was tweeting about all the phuss.

Phil wondered why people elected to serve

would waste time on smart phones.

Kick them to the curb!

Quit spending so much to go deeper in debt

or votes on election day you will not get.

But Phil exclaimed as he turned away phrom the channel,

"Quit tweeting and save us phrom a disaster phiscal!"

Cleanout Bonus

Phil is up to his pheathers in sweaters as he helps Wiphey reorganize and clean out some clothes storage tubs.

Evidently, they should have done this a couple oph years ago. They phound three pairs oph pants that Wiphey had bought bephore she married Hubby, stored away, then phorgot about. It was like going shopping only without the credit card!

Yummy

M&Ms? Check. Cereal? Check.

 White chocolate chips? Check.

 Yummy treats? Check.

 Sorry, Phil, these treats are not phor the birds.



Merry Christmas 2012

We hope you've had as wonderphul a Christmas as we have. To keep the Christmas spirit alive, Phil would like to ophpher you his playlist oph phavorite Christmas songs.

Phirst, there's the lovely "Silent Night...Or You'll Wake Phil and the Phurry One."

 Then there's the popular classic, "Spider Man is Coming to Town...

 ...Doing Whatever a Spider Can."

 And let's not phorget the haunting lyrics oph "Wee Three Kids oph Artistry Are."

 "We Wish You a Phurry Christmas" is next on Phil's list oph all-time phavorite Christmas melodies...

 ...phollowed by the classic "Do You See What I See?"

A dog, big dog,

sitting by me.

He has stolen Izzy's phrisbee.

She's as angry aaa-as can be.

And to all a good night!

Monkey Around

Because Dickens the Monkey is new around here, Phil showed him around the Christmas decorations.

Phil is a little jealous that Dickens is small enouph to ride the Christmas rocking horses. Maybe Santa will bring you a pheasant-sized rocking horse phor Christmas, Phil.

Wiphey's Phancy New Phleece Gloves

Wiphey went online and bought herselph some new phleece gloves with the phingers that can work a touch screen. 

They're the best invention since a snow blower!

Dear Santa

Aphter the sadness oph yesterday, Phil had to revise his letter to Santa today.

12-12-12

A date like today's won't come around again in our liphetime, so Phil is commemorating it in dozens.

Phor the sopht drinkers...

 Phor those who like to celebrate with something a little harder...

 And phor...

those who like to eat breakphast...?

Story Time

The temperature outside was phreezing today, so Phil chose to stay warm at home.

He phigured Wiphey was just going to tell him about all the meetings she sat through today, but she got his attention when she told him the story about the arrest she witnessed today.

She saw a guy with handcuphphs on his wrists, lying phace-down in the snow aphter sheriphph's ophphicers took him down. It all happened just outside the building where she was going phor a meeting. Phil was phascinated by this story.

Non-Pareils Peril

Wiphey brought home these phantastic non-pareil chocolates today.

Phil would like more but can't phigure out how to work the twist-tie. Wiphey's not helping.

Phunny Object

Hubby came home today and phashioned this phunny object. Phil can't phigure out what it is.

 Hubby calls it his "phinely-tuned spine manipulator."

Phil is still phlummoxed. It's going to take some detective work to phigure out this one.

Phinally, the Light oph Day

We've been at work during daylight hours and could not take a good photo oph our new siding until today.

 Pretty, right?

Phil phancies the new light phixture. It makes him pheel at home.
