Laundry Power

I've been helping do the laundry today. The day didn't start off right, because I woke up too early and fell fast asleep, having a well earned nap, but ENOUGH! Now is the time for me to tell you about my grown up deed.

To start with, I helped Mum put the laundry into the washing machine, all the while confessing to her that I am now doing stories on Deviantart. I also got a sock off Mylo by giving him a lamb chop. I did a heap of things during my time in the living room: I got the TV remote off Mylo using a lamb chop treat, I helped Mum load my clothes into the tumble dryer, I cooked my own dinner and I played The Best Of Kids! That is, until Mylo came and ruined the board. It really shows how well I've grown up, both inside and out.

Hmmmm....I wonder what I can do tomorrow?

Furaha & Orko

Chapter 1:

Morning

The golden sun’s first rays of the day shone over the meadow. It gave life to all the flowers whose heads were drooping as low as a donkey’s head. It woke every animal in their den or cave and every bird in its nest. It shone its energising rays down on every blade of grass and every sleeping tree. It was telling the whole world to wake up…and then, the light faded. Now the world was alive with vibrant colours and peaceful frivolity. The tranquil Spring breeze blew across the valley gently, as it made every blade of grass and every flower sway like crowds holding torches during an emotional performance at a noisy concert. Every tree was in leaf and every bird was singing its dawn song. And underneath one tall oak tree, two friends were stirring…

Chapter 2:

Furaha & Her Friend, Orko

Yes, it was Furaha the lioness cub and her best friend and big brother, the Trollan wizard named Orko. Orko came from Eternia, and before, he came from Trolla - he had a horrible life back in Eternia, being told what to do endlessly by his abusive ‘friend’ He Man and the other commanding members of this universe, until finally, He Man, or Prince Adam, had enough and sent him flying in a space pod to Earth. Now, he lives a happy life with his new sister, and the two have become best friends ever since.

When Furaha woke, she stretched her arms and yawned loudly, letting out a long, lazy growl. She stood up, unleashed her claws and stretched like a cat, first with her front legs and then with her back. She saw Orko asleep by her side and thought about how to wake him up.

Then, she had it - tickling of course! She knelt down beside Orko, and…. “Tickle tickle tickle!” said Furaha in a cutesy voice, as Orko woke up mid-snore immediately from the effect of Furaha’s fluffy tickles. “Trolly Molly, Furaha! Why do you need to tickle me when I’m in the middle of a wonderful dream?” “Wow, I never knew wizards like you could dream. What was your dream about?”

“A whole world, Furaha. A world full of chocolate chip cookies and ice cream - I wanted to take a bite out of every morsel.” Orko licked his shadowed lips in complete contentment. “The sunshine has soaked its rays on our valley again.” said Furaha, “Come on, last one to the top of the tree is a thin weasel!”

Chapter 3:

Tree Climbing

Furaha began to climb the tree. She climbed and climbed and climbed, but her friend needn’t climb this high, instead, he just floated all the way up to the top of the tree, and as Furaha scrambled through the leaves, Orko burst out as she popped up through the lush greenery. “I won!” shouted Orko. “Better luck next time, eh, Furaha?” “Oh, I guess, but you’ve yet to know, Orko, it isn’t about winning, it’s about fun and games.” “Oh yeah, you’re right,” said Orko, and high-fived Furaha, hugging her so they both giggled over such a little victory.

Chapter 4:

The View

Furaha and Orko looked out over their wonderful valley. The morning sun had soaked its rays on every grassy plain, every hill, every tree, every lake, every mountain, giving everything in nature its sleeping life back.

“Wow,” gasped Furaha, “I’ve never seen the world come alive before.” “That’s just how the world is when it’s morning,” reminded Orko, “Everything comes alive in nature, as all sleeps when the darkness of the night rolls around. And boy, how lucky we are to live in this wonderful paradise.” “It’s everything we’ve ever dream-WOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!” Oh my goodness gracious me! Furaha is falling! Quickly, Orko flew down to where Furaha was going to crash, and caught her just in time, but because she was so heavy, Orko fell over! Furaha cheered excitedly, and the two began to laugh.

As their laughter faded out, Orko said, “I think this is going to be the best day ever.” “I think you’re right,” said Orko, “Now, let’s go and explore more of our valley!”

Chapter 5:

Rolling Down Hills

Furaha and Orko first went to the biggest hill in the valley. Furaha was excited, for she knew that she was going to do her favourite thing - rolling down hills. Not without Orko, he was like her own guide in her life, someone who would be in her shadow the whole time.

Furaha fell over onto her back and rolled downhill. Orko fell over and rolled down after her. “Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!” they both cried, and they laughed and shouted as they rolled down the hill together. Oh, how happy they were rolling down those hills together as a brother and sister. They closed their eyes and felt the dizzying world black out before them, before they felt one another land on top of each other. When they opened their eyes, they saw that they were together again. How they laughed!

Chapter 6:

The Flower Meadow

The meadow was full of brightly-coloured, wonderfully perfumed flowers, standing waiting to be smelled in the Springtime sunshine. Furaha and Orko made their way through the meadow, causing butterflies to scatter in a cloud of bright colours into the air.

The two friends danced and spun round until they collapsed in the flowers, panting and laughing. Furaha then rolled over onto her tummy and smelled a bright yellow flower. Its scent was so wonderful, Furaha thought she was going to Heaven already.

When Orko tried to take a sniff of his red flower, he saw a bee nestled inside it. And it didn’t look happy. “ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!” growled the bee, and it began to chase Orko around the field. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!” screamed Orko, “Furaha, help me! I’m being chased by a bee!” “Don’t worry, Orko,” laughed Furaha, “The bee will give up on chasing you and resume his job of collecting nectar soon.”

Chapter 7:

Running Free

Furaha sat and watched Orko float quickly away from his insect foe, being chased by a bee wasn’t enough for him. Then, she had an idea. “Orko, RUN!” she shouted, and soon the two began to run and float further and further away from the flower meadow, until the bee was nowhere to ‘bee’ seen.

“Furaha, you saved me!” said Orko. “Thanks,” said Furaha, “Although, I just realised something: you can’t just leave a friend being chased by a bee, you have to do something. And that’s exactly what I did!” “Oh, you’re so heroic, Furaha. I don’t know what I’d do without you.”

Furaha and Orko laughed as they ran across the valley, the wind in their (for Orko’s, shadowed) faces and a free spirit in their hearts. Orko twirled and spun as he floated high into the air, almost blocking out the sun, and let out a burst of giant sparkles using his magic, which rained all over Furaha. She clapped her paws as around her, millions of flowers began to grow. Orko landed safely onto the ground, and the two shared a big hug. It wasn’t likely that a daring rescue was to end on that note, but from what I feel, this story isn’t over yet.

The Wild Robot & The Berenstain Bears & Too Much TV

Two essential books I need to help me through my life skills phase.

Shops-A-Lot

Today was another big achievement in the life of yours truly. To start with, this morning while I was taking advice from a column on Peter Brown's website about his book, The Wild Robot Escapes, I found my dog Mylo running in with a whole bag of treats in his mouth. Knowing what I did yesterday, I opened a bag of treats and lured him away from the red bag with a treat whilst I put the bag on the counter and whispered, just like a panicking Teletubby, "Run away! Run away!"

Later on I helped Mum with the shopping. I sang a special working song to the tune of a song from The Lion King: Rhythm Of The Pride Lands:

"Put the shopping away,

Put the shopping away,

Put the shopping away,

Put the food away..."

And as I did it, I had fun picking up all the items on the order and carrying them into the kitchen, where I put them all on the kitchen counter. Mum and I made a great team trying to put all the food and stuff onto the counter, and later, I gave a piece of chicky (or Chimken as Linda calls it to Tucker) to Mylo for being such a good and loving baby boy.

Yo next time, we do the laundry!

Rise Of The Lobster Tank

Remember the lobster tank I saw back when I was searching through starter packs? Well, Mrs H and I first started our day off not right. Now, I think I'm learning about life skills alongside some other big changes. These changes include narrowing TV time down to 5 O'Clock at night and doing stories when I'm fresh in the morning.

Anyway, onto the best bit. Mrs H and I went to Surf N Turf, a fish and chip shop in the village, and guess what? You may think it's like any other fish and chip shop, but happily enough, it contains a tank filled with

Real.

LIVE.

LOBSTERS!!!

Oh my god! I was told by the lady there that they cook the lobsters alive and wrap orange tape round their pincers to stop them from pinching. I tried a new sauce, and it tasted really horrible, almost like washing up liquid mixed with poison. Still, the fish tasted great, and so did the chips. A pesky wasp however threatened to ruin everything, but it went away so I managed to finish my meal.

Afterwards, we went to the store and got a chocolate ice cream in a tub with a Flake. It was there that I thought up a new policy:

"TOO MUCH TV MEANS TOO MANY TANTRUMS!"

And thus, I decided to narrow the screen time down to 5 O'Clock every night. I also met Mrs H's friend, who has a harrowing skin condition which makes her skin lighter. Ne'er mind, I think that trip was life-changing.

Now, I'm going to do my blog and Youtube channels every day, and tonight, I WILL play my Best Of Kids game with Mum.
