Dear Santa, I Want

Dear Santa, I want a guinea pig,
One that can handle his sup.
I'd like one that can overeat,
And doesn't sleep belly up.

And, Dear Santa, our toilet won't flush,
It's really quite a wonder,
So could you bring for my mom,
A brand new toilet plunger?

Like this a lot! Believe it or not I'm somewhat partial to the funny ones, especially if they rhyme! Good luck with future GP's..........80)

Okay, yes. I want guinea pig food. The real stuff. I've learned they can't be fed a steady diet of M and Ms. Lol

Very entertaining, Rhoda:) I think Santa might have guinea pigs to spare, but I have a feeling it never crossed his mind to order toilet plungers!! ~ Regards // paul

You made me chuckle this morning Rhoda. If you bury them the toilet won't back up. Very creative and funny. I enjoyed it a lot!
