Preparations
Our first show is tomorrow. TOMORROW! I don’t feel ready at all – there’s been so much to distract me lately. Luckily, my mom is a saint and has been over 3 times this week to help me save my sanity and keep me on track with my crafts when I felt like I couldn’t do it. Tonight she helped me mock up a display for tomorrow. Einstein approves. Or maybe he wants to be sold to a new family…
The Spot: Photo #361
Someone has found his new spot. I don’t think he’s left the new chair since we got it.
Retrieval: Photo #356
Our third (ever) egg retrieval was today so I’m taking it easy on the new couch, riding out the cramps and bloating. Linus is helping.
Colonization: Photo #281
Linus: Wow! These clothes sure are clean and fluffy! A perfect place for a kitty to snuggle quietly and contemplate. Purr.
Zipper: I sense that someone other than me is enjoying some prime real estate. I must seize it! Wah ha! (jumps in, attempting a hostile take-over of the Isle of Laundry Basket)
Linus: Golly, Zipper – I’m pretty sure I was here first – I’m tryin’ to have my devotional time. Well, maybe we could share the basket – you know, like teamwork!
Zipper: (thinking to herself that this will not do – she needs a plan – yes! she will drive him out with excessive annoyance! she knows just the ticket. she sticks her tongue into his ear canal in a futile attempt to lick his brain – she can’t find it)
Linus: Thanks for the ear cleaning, Zipper, but it kinda tickles and I’d really like to get back to prayin’. I’ll just sit here quietly – you won’t even know I’m here.
Zipper: (sighs and settles in unobtrusively, next to Linus. if she can’t be the only one enjoying herself, at least she can prevent Linus from usurping that privilege. you win some, you lose some – and sometimes you have to peacefully coexist with your brother.)
Constructive: Photo #258
Today is Day 12 of The Month of Living Healthfully.
Now that we are watching much less television we can make much more constructive use of our time and do things like dress Einstein in Zipper’s Glam Grrrrl sweatshirt. Zipper was not pleased.

Einstein is trying to learn Spanish. Now I may have to start yelling at him bilingually.
Life With Cats
Life with cats is completely different than I would have expected back in my pre-cat days. This artist is brilliant. I’m just glad Linus and Einstein don’t have access to baseball bats…….that I know of….
