Welcome to my corner of the world such as it is. It wasn't supposed to turn out this way. I didn't do anything wrong. No, really. You can't believe that blue-eyed she devil Coco. She lied and then she pissed on me. Look at me, do I look like a thief?
I come from a long line of respected gnomes. The Red Hat clan likes a little fun, who doesn't? But thievery? No that I leave to those blasted trolls.
You may have spotted me here and there, under a tree, on top of the world but I can't tell you where I am now. It's not safe.

Here's my side of the story. A while back I found this weathered gnome hanging out in my garden. He seemed harmless enough at the time. Being a sucker for hard luck stories, I let him stay. Little by little I noticed things go missing. A garden glove here, a trowel there. No big deal. But when a package of Christmas ornaments I'd ordered from Ebay went missing, I suspected the gnome. When my cat Coco saw me screaming at the gnome she booted him out. He's gone and now I feel a little guilty. Maybe he wasn't the thief.

Hi Layla -- Is this where I start? I'm going to work up on catching up with the rest of the group. Such a cute story about the gnome showing up one day in your garden. Sounds like my new friend Aimee's Pink Flamingo that keep on multiplying from her "secret zoo keeper".
