Where Are My Serfs??

"I'll help clean the sink but that's it mom!"

"I can't help mom, I'm still recovering."

"I can lay on the bed while you try to make it!"

"I'm quite competent at supervising washing the floor.
But I'm afraid I'm not very good with a mob."

Hmmmm, I guess I can't get the cats to help with the housework.

Boy, Did I Fubar That One!!

I was planning to move the Breast Cancer Awareness into it's own section.  ::head:laptop::  I got it moved and then accidentally erased it.  gah!  This means that I have to put it back in bit by bit.  Ergo, I'll be working on that first.  However, they finally got the 2011 calendars up!!  blah.

Star seems to be doing better.  There aren't large bumps anymore.  OTOH I haven't seen any pus come out.  On one hand, he seems to be feeling better, he's been taking his antibiotics.  On the other hand, I'm not sure if he needs to see the vet again, especially since we can't afford it (BTW thanks again to everyone who contributed!!  Your contributions got us to within ~$1 of Star's bill!!).  He's still sleeping a lot.  If I could find a working camera I'd take some new pictures, but of course, it's gone missing!!  What a week!!  I've had one teacher for each kid get in touch with me about things they need to do to keep from getting Fs for the first six weeks.  And, once again, it's not that they haven't done the work, they just haven't turned it in.  Gah!!  I need a vacation!  At any rate, today I'll leave you with one of my favorite Breast Cancer Awareness graphics, which will probably be going up in the store some time today.


Which reminds me, I should make some of the long bumper stickers.  Oh!  Did you know that the rectangular & oval stickers are made out of the same material as the bumper stickers??  I think that is soooo cool.

The Good, the Bad, and the Growling!!

"Now you can all see what a good, sweeeeet, adorrrrrrrable kitty
I am.  No, really.  I never ever do anything wrong, like... oh...
say... jumping on the table, scratching things up, spraying on
daddy's musical equipment, not letting mommy clip my nails,
or anything else.  But last night I let Jennifer put the lavender compress on me (okay, I didn't like it today).  And last night
when mommy tried to see if I'd take my pill by myself by putting
it in with my treats, I did!!   I really am such such a Good Boy!!  
All that growling wasn't me... it was Thomas.  No, really!!"

Well, I slept forever but now that I'm up I'm going to try to do some more work on Winter Holidays.  The store only holds 500 sections.  This is why I'm having to take things down in order to put things up.  ::sigh::  I'm going to pull out the Breast Cancer section into it's own section out from the Medical Expressions.  I just wish it didn't take so long to do this stuff!!  Oh, and I'm having a heck of a time trying to tell if he's still got hard pus still there or not.  ::sigh::  I really can't afford another trip to the vet Friday but it looks like I may have to since nothing has come out.  meh.

 

Actually, this is true.  I started doing this even before I married my current husband who is diabetic.  The kids come running up going 'This is the house where they give toys!!    I make sure to have special toys for the children who are under three, like plastic cups they can chew on or wrapped healthy snacks.
I get most of my at after-holiday sales or from Oriental Trading.
