Roving Reporter Olivia here, reporting on what needs to be reported, according to Mom. If I was REALLY in charge, there’d be no flower photos or visitor photos; just evidence of mischief occurring everywhere!

Okay, Olivia, do you want to help with this post or not? Your choice.

*sigh* Moving along, Mom wants to show off the colors outside. I have to admit, trees and leaves and things are pretty bright right now.

Mom’s cyclamen, a gift from Dad back in 2017, was planted outside over the past summer months. Mom doesn’t think it’ll survive our cold winter, even heavily mulched like it is, but knew it wouldn’t survive much longer inside either. It was so happy, it bloomed all summer long. Mom says if it lives, she’ll try to take it to wherever we move to if we lose the house next spring. How does someone lose a whole house? Mom says it’s complicated and not to worry my pretty panther head.

Okay, back inside,

Mom brought some of those outside colors in. Looks like a mess of leaves. I’ll bet my troublesome sister Tessa would love to get a hold of some of those!

Speaking of my sister, here’s one of Mom’s most favorite things, a giant pine cone, allegedly from a giant redwood tree (don’t quote me on that!). One year, Tessa attacked this pine cone and bunny kicked it until parts broke off it. Mom was very sad.

Tessa: I most certainly did not. Let me think. Hmmm, nope. Never touched that pokey thing.

Did so. I remember it.

Tessa: You remember wrong, Olivia. That’s all I’m going to say about it.

Okay, we’ll agree to disagree. But you did scatter toys everywhere. Still do.

Tessa: Grrr. . .

Back outside, where there’s no arguing,

Wally Olly Porkchop loves our cooler weather. So does neighbor cat W who likes hunting fall mousies in neighboring yards.

Mom says don’t forget to mention visitor BT, the raccoon with the bent tail. Dad sees BT more often now than Mom because of different work schedules, but she says she knows BT is sleeping over some nights in Geoffrey’s House that was recently repacked with fresh straw. Smart raccoon!

Well, that’s about all Mom’s going to let me report on today. You can believe I have a whole list of infractions by various sisters and a brother just waiting to be spilled like tuna juice on carpet. Mmm, stinky goodness!
