My Cat-Dog


My Cat- Dog
by Olivia
I’m on a case to figure out if I own cat-dog. I think my cat is turning into one! Here’s my evidence so far. My Chloe (that’s my cat’s name) often scratches at the door to be let out. “Squirrel! Squirrel!” she tells me. At first, I don’t believe her. I decide to check it out. “I declare! There really is a squirrel!” I tell her. Sometimes, she pulls herself along a carpeted floor with her front paws. I bet she’s too in love with the floor to leave it. I’ve seen my cousin’s corgi do something like that before, except I don’t think he was in love with the floor.
I have another suspicion. My cat-dog chases her tail! I’ve definitely seen a dog do that. Well, I guess she doesn’t chase her tail, but she does bite it! Sometimes she even growls at it. “Ooh! Ooh!” she tells me. “My tail is moving! It’s wiggling! It’s so exciting! I must get it! I must get it! I’m a cat-dog so I must catch my tail!”
This is so weird for me. It must stop. Hmm. Perhaps, No…. Wait………Yes! I’ve got it! (not my tail) If my cat is turning dog, then I should pretend she is one! Yep! Hang on, I need to make a trip to the pet store. Alright. Let’s try this. I have never owned a dog, but I have seen how my friends take care of theirs.
“Here girl!” I tell my new dog. “Go get it!” she doesn’t get it. “Go get the new rubber ball I bought for you!” Ugg. At least she sort-of went after it. I guess this dog can’t play fetch. This changes my thoughts. I guess I should try the two other things I bought at the pet store……
“Come girl!” Let’s try out this new collar and leash! I found my dog and put on her collar and leash. “Let’s go for a walk!” I tell her. I tug on the leash. She stays put. I tug on it again. Nope. That darn dog. On my last tug she flopped down on her side and WOULD NOT BUDGE! That’s it. I’m done. Outta ideas. I obviously still have a cat…. She’s just…strange. Well, I have to return the leash, collar, and rubber ball I bought! Case closed.

Motorcycle Mischief

                                               I'm writing this story about my dad because I thought it was funny and very clever. When my dad was about six years old, he and his older brother (my uncle) played a trick on their mother (my grandma) by using a mini Honda motorcycle. My dad wasn't allowed to ride the motorcycle because he was to young. When his mom was washing dishes, they knew she would be looking out the sink's window. They turned on the motorcycle behind the house, put it in neutral and my dad's brother gave him a strong push so it looked like he was riding the motorcycle past the window his mom was looking out. Grandma definitely saw him riding the motorcycle (as so it seemed) and raced out the door yelling, "Jeffrey! Get off that motorcycle right now!" Dad and his brother started laughing as they explained to her that it was a trick and that the m...

Pros and cons of social distancing

    There are many pros and cons to social distancing. Some pros are getting  to stay in touch with friends even though you cant see them. You also have lots of time to be outside and go on hikes, I also like getting to hang out with family and play fun bored games.     Some cons of social distancing would be not getting to go to youth group and church, but at least we can watch church online, another con is not getting to see your friends, but again at least we can text or facetime them.These are a few of my thoughts on what some pros and cons are.

Silas's honest paragraph

                                                   The over used expression There is a word that I hear nearly 10 times a day. This word is the reason we are not meeting here today. Yes, I believe that it is a good idea to social distance, but why don’t we take our minds off of this pandemic for at least an hour. All I See is memes about this word. Yeah, you know what I’m talking about and that’s why I’ve decided not to say it. So far I’ve lasted 6 days without saying this word.
