I know we kind of dropped the ball with introductions.  The animals were kind of just put together.  Didn't really have a choice, a week later we had to go visit family for Christmas (nobody wanted to go- and it was the WORST Christmas we've ever had :( ).  We got someone to come stay with the...

Been quite some time since I was here.  Got busy.  I'm having a little behavior problem and want to see if anyone might have ideas.   My oldest daughter graduated college, got a job.  For 4 months.  Sigh.  Things happened and she had to move back home.  Along with her, she brought her now 6...

I have a very nervous 3 year old tabby cat.  No idea why, he's always been like this. Maybe because he spent so much time in the shelter before we got him?   Anyways, got a litter box problem.  We've had them out in the garage, no problem at all, the cats have a door that they can go in/out of...

I live near the CBBT.  We've driven through it a couple of times. We had to go to New England to visit family, and going up the Eastern Shore is much more pleasant than having to go through DC.  The tunnels do go on and on- and it can be kind of scary driving through them when you have cars...

That could be neat!  I don't have any idea though.  We got him at the city shelter 2 years ago.   Cheryl

Aww I love Mia's tail!   When we brought him home from the shelter, I got kind of concerned because he had such a strange tail.  I'd never seen anything like it before.  It's got a bend at the very tip of the tail too, I thought it was broken or something.  Since then, I found out it is a...

I tried to post this 2x from my phone.  I have no idea how long Sam's tail is.  But I had to show it off.  When he's happy it lays almost flat against his back. Holly won't let anyone measure her tail, she will bite.   Cheryl

Yay!  Thank you! Cheryl

Don't watch Chopped anymore either.   Last winter I got addicted to the PBS show "The Great British Baking Show"  Only because it was on before Downton Abbey  It's quite good, I want to see if I can find any of the recipes on it, some of the foods they made on there sounded quite good.  Cheryl

Ok, so I've heard about dogs getting "weirded" out when the human children leave the nest for the first time.  How about cats?   Our youngest left for school 2 weeks ago.  House is really quiet.  And it's kind of "freaking" the cats out.  Holly more than Sam, and that's kind of strange b/c Sam...

Here's a question.  Did any of your cats act "strange" when the kids went off to school?  It's been 2 weeks since my youngest left and the house has been quiet.  Holly and Sam both know there's strange things going on.  Sam's always been kind of high strung- I think it's been a little bit worse...

It's very, very different when they go off to college.  They need you, but in a different way.  I have 2 in college this year, a freshman and a senior. The senior is living in an off-campus apartment by herself.  Freshman is in the dorms.  Both have had a few struggles.  Youngest is trying to...

  I have a senior in college who will hopefully graduate in May with a Music Ed degree.  She keeps saying she wants a Master's and maybe even a doctorate.  That's fine.  However- she decided to go to a private college- very good choice for her but very pricey.  We told her that she needs to work...

My daughter's orchestra teacher at the high school has 2 kids.  His oldest is 21 and a senior in college.  The youngest is a freshman at the same college my youngest daughter is at   In April- they found out they were pregnant and due in October.  My daughter who was in his class at the time...

Mom moved in with my sister and I got some "stuff".  I took everything she wanted to get rid of (even though some of it was stuff that my sister din't want- but we aren't going to go there and be snarky ). My oldest is moving into her first apartment in a couple of days.  She needs everything...

Our garden hasn't done very well .  We did try.  It was planted in May and then we put chicken wire around it to try to deter the critters.   Well- my husband didn't do a good job at closing gaps at the bottom.  Tiny bunnies were able to get in and they ate ALL the green bean plants    I have...
