What do you want to do when you grow up?

Last night my knitting group was cancelled, so I decided to use my time wisely and knock out some of my Christmas chores, as well as some household tasks, which it seems my life revolves around these days.

I ran a few errands, bounded in the door and started doing this, that and the other. And then, everything changed in one gag. Cat puke here, cat puke there, cat puke everywhere. So, that's how I spent my night, following Izzie around with paper towels and spray cleaner.

In between gagging, I did manage to sweep up three tons of cat litter, a bucket of pine needles and do two loads of laundry.

What has my life come to?

Have you been feeding her food from Taco Bell?

JK, hope Izzy is better soon!

Cat puke, one of my biggest pet peeves. I had Mabel laughing hysterically when I was very pissed about one of our cat's. We had just had the carpets cleaned and he started all kinds of puking. In my frustration I did an impersonation of Brady the cat upchucking all over the house. Her laughing deflated my anger.

Here's the breakdown:

$195 for carpet cleaning
$35 for the vet to say the cat has indigestion
Brady home safe and sound?
Priceless? NOT, how about free to a good home.

Thanks for reminding me of the downside of kitties. Makes my kitty cravings go away some.

Poor Izzie! Poor Ragged! I wonder which is worse, cat puke or toddler puke? I don't deal well with bodily fluids of any type, especially those which should stay in the body. I hate it when the dogs puke!!!

I'd suspect pine needle nibblings are the cause.

Brings back memories of cleaning up Shihzu puke and other while alternating changing baby diapers!
