MAKING A MESS!!

     Early the next morning, Oscar was wide awake waiting anxiously for Mom and Madeline to leave for school and work. At last he heard the sounds of the noisy garage door opening and closing. He sprung up off of the chair and ran toward the small closet in the laundry room. He opened the door and...CRASH! BOOM! BAM! OUUUUCHHHH! YOWEEEEE!
All of his craft supplies went rolling and crashing all over the laundry room floor! He quickly cleaned up his mess and started making his Halloween party decorations.
     First he took the rolls of white fabric and began cutting out yards of fabric. SNIP! SNIP! SNAP! ZOOM! He trimmed eyes and mouth out of each yard. His scissors were moving so fast you could barely see them. Every time he finished a ghost he would jump up and down and yell, "OH BOY! OH BOY! These are going to be perfect!" He cut and trimmed and worked and worked until he had over 35 scary ghosts!
     After finishing all his ghosts he started working on the pumpkins. One by one he drew funny faces all over his pumpkins. They had squiggly eyes, big eyes, small eyes, scary eyes, silly eyes, sad eyes and even angry eyes. They had smiling mouths, frowning mouths, surprised mouths and even scared mouths. "HEE! HEE! HAAA! HAAAAAA! HAAAAAAAA! HEEEEEEE!", Oscar was rolling all over the floor laughing at all of his pumpkins.
     Oscar opened the door into the garage and grabbed the recycling bin. It was always full of cardboard and other things that he knew he could use. He used his scissors again to cut different gravestone shapes out of the cardboard. EEEEEWWWW! It was really tough cutting through the cardboard. He struggled and struggled and finally got them cut out. "WHEW! That was a real tough job!" He quickly began painting them with different shades of gray paint. SPLAT! DRIP! DROP! " OH NO! I SPILLED THE PAINT! WHAT A MESS....MOM IS GOING TO GET ME! WHOOOOWHOOOOO! WHAT SHOULD I DOOOOO?" The floor covered and he was covered with paint, and it was almost time for Mom and Madeline to be home! YIKES!
     "Don't panic!", Oscar calmed himself down. "First I need to mop the floor." He grabbed the mop and began to clean up all the paint. When finally finished he turned around to look at his clean floor. "AAAAHHHH!" There were footprints all over the floor! He had paint on his paws!!! "NOW I HAVE TO MOP AGAIN!!!" This time he wiped his paws and then  re mopped the floor. After finishing mopping he gathered up all his crafts and stored them back in the closet. He hid is ghosts and grave stones in Madeline's Fort. "WHEW! Time for a bath," he said as he headed back to the laundry room.
     SQUIRT! SQQQQUIIIIIRRRRT! Oscar squeezed a whole bunch of soap into the laundry room sink. He reached up and turned the water on. Bubbles started growing and growing and growing! "STOP! STOP! OH NO!" He finally reached the faucet handles and turned the water off. "YIKES! That was close!" he said as he jumped into the sink. SPLASH! Then he began to wash and sing. "DOOO DEEE DOOO OSCAR LOVES TO TAKE A BAAAATTTTHH! DOOO DEEE! SCRUBBBB!" He washed and scrubbed his fur until all the paint was gone. Then he ran to Mom's bathroom and grabbed the hair dryer. WHHURRRRRRRR! WHUURRRRR! The hair dryer made a really loud sound as it blasted his fur with hot air. POOF! His fur was standing up all over the place! He looked in the mirror and saw his reflection. "HEE! HEE! HAAA! HAAAAAAA! HAAAAAAA! I look silly!"
     Oscar was still in the bathroom when he noticed that he had some paint on his teeth! "YUCK! I need to clean my teeth. MMMMMM....Mom always uses that little brush to clean hers. I WILL TOO!" He grabbed Mom's toothbrush and squeezed toothpaste on it and began to brush his teeth!
