Random Monday Morning Notes


Snow, snow, go away.

I got most of my tax stuff caught up this weekend.  I have a huge stack of returns ready to be picked up (and paid for!).  Which is good, because $ seems to be flying out the door around here.  I sat down to pay the bills last night and realized we should buy a house closer to Sam's Club in order to realize less gas expense and driving time.  Gee, whiz, we are there a lot.  It's practically all tax-deductible stuff like business expenses or prescriptions, and we do save a lot of $ by using them, but, MAN.  I think my kids believe Sam's Club Chocolate Soft Serve Ice Cream From The Snack Bar (why not capitalize all that?) is one of the major food groups.

It *is* good ice cream, though.

Today I've got to meet a client for lunch, give her her tax return, get paid , so I get to eat out at a restaurant for lunch.  WACKY.  So probably no lunch update from moi.  I don't have much on my mind, anyway, besides money.  Moneymoneymoneymoney. 

Except this:

Our cats have been peeing on things lately.  Annie even pooped somewhere grossly inappropriate over the weekend.  Hey, I could sell them both to a lab, huh?

I'd never do that, I feel bad even joking about it.  But there's no discernible reason for the behavior and it's getting old.  I mean, the only time I want to lie down on the bed next to a turd is when Steve's already asleep.

Ciao.

Oh, I want to add, so I don't forget...Steve and the boys brought me breakfast in bed yesterday.  I guess they were worried about my Rip Van Winkle routine and food seemed like a good way to get me up and moving. 

It was a great breakfast.  Chipotle eggs, Steve's own recipe...fruit salad...yum.  Then I got up and ate a piece of peach pie from our weekend trip up to Huber's.

Speaking of which, I have some video of that, I'll post it one of these days.

We got a free pie, how can you beat that?

Anyway, the boys were so excited about bringing me breakfast in bed.  Their sweet little smiling faces were just in my mind, as I was clamboring out of the shower and getting ready to shake off the thermal aqua hog vibes, before sliding into wooly-mammoth-sweater-mama mode.  I never want to forget those tiny happy faces.

And Steve was pretty proud, too.

That breakfast in bed sounds great! And congrats on the cashflow from the tax returns. Always good to make a little extra cash.

Cats are rather sensitive to routines.  Chances are they are seeing that you aren't there during the day, so to show they are unhappy about the change they'll go potty in your bed.  I have a friend who's a teacher and goes through this every fall when she goes back to school.  Once the new routine becomes...well, routine, they'll most likely stop pooing on your bed! :)

i'm so jelous - we haven't been to Hubers since right before halloween, ya know to get our pumkins - we will have to go again soon! We go at least once b/c my hubbys union has a picnic there in the summer time and it is always sooo much fun Ethan likes the fish and the ducks in the water... and always has to feed them!! we totaly live at sam's too and yes the ice cream is sooo good, unfortunatly (or maybe fortunatly) my son won't eat ice cream, but we can't go to sam's w/ out getting him a plain pretzel

as far as the cat's it could be your pregnancy and if things are different, but dont' rule out some kind of illness... i've heard that cat's w/ blader infections will pee other places... or there maybe something wrong w/ where the regularly use the bathroom...

any whoo hope ya have a good lunch..

TTFN...

i agree with ladyj... i have had similar problems with my cat when she had a uti... after a round of antibiotics she was back to normal...  however... if she experiences something she doesn't like... she will punish me by pooping next to my treadmill!!! Thank goodness she has never peed outside her box...

Watch what you clean the pee with, if it's bleach, or amonia based, it encourages the cats to re-pee in the same place again.

Our cats started this when we had C -- and it got worse when I was pregnant with A.  They sense that change is a comin', and they freak out.  But ew, I'm so very tired of cat pee.
