Mine looked like this 6 of out 7 days a week (I took Sundays off): Lease Other regular work task Lease Other regular work task Lease Household chore etc etc etc It... Continue Reading →

Monday Cat Blogging


I warned you I would have cat pictures from the weekend 🙂 First, the two blind kitties I took care of while their mamas were out of town. The Punks as they are known, can be seen more here with an explanation of why they are without eyes. Meanwhile, back at my house and Chip... Continue Reading →

May 24th – The Storm Begins


You know how I said yesterday that it was the calm before the storm at work? Yeah well, the storm rolled in today SO here's what you get before I head out for another dinner meeting on job/career #2: Yes, I did run. 3 miles! I could have run 4-5 but I had to get... Continue Reading →

May 18th – A moment in time


The day started off odd enough. First 15 was up and showering by 6:30 on his own - I can only imagine this was due to him having sort of reset his clock this week in preparation for yesterday's REALLY early morning for the AP test. So I was in the office by 7:30 and rolling along... Continue Reading →

May 17th – AP test day and a new slow cooker recipe


One of the new routines thanks to Chip's bladder issues is that instead of leaving dry food out for them all day, I fill their bowls twice a day. This is not a big deal for Chip, but for Amber it is utter hell. I tried to ease her into it while Chip was at... Continue Reading →

May 10th – Have you ever tried to give a cat medicine?


The follow up to the end of last week when we had to take in the piddle puddle kitty is that medically - he was fine. All tests were clear and the replacement and re-arrangement of bathroom facilities seemed to stop the out of litter box puddle issues. Of course, the vet also prescribed a... Continue Reading →

May 4th – cat drama and night out with 15


This will have to be quick as I am fading fast. The day started at the vet with Chip the peeing cat. As the vet examined him and started rattling off the list of test she wanted to run (and I saw my savings account draining as she spoke), she had the stethoscope on him... Continue Reading →

Catnip party!


It's been awhile since I did some classic cat blogging, therefore I shall pander to the feline loving masses with photos from last night's catnip party. After a couple nights in a row of the very loud late night/early morning cat fights and gallops up and down the stairs and hissing and growling at the... Continue Reading →

This week in learning: Grass & New Shoes!


First, for my fellow crazy cat lovers, a recommendation: Sweet Prince works for Petco corporate and brought me this self contained packet for grass seeds for the cats. Let me tell you, they LOVE it! And? it was remarkably easy to grow. I planted the seeds in the bag just before new years. Within a... Continue Reading →
