How to use this Page

While I was slaving over the taxes today, the rest of my family was enjoying a nice lazy sleepy afternoon.

Wendell. Wendell Shmendell. He was home from the hospital, then went back in 2 days later for another 5 days, and is newly home again. We now know has some neurological bladder thing that isn't fixable. So I don't know how long he'll be with us. I can't think about it.

For now though he is so happy to be home on the comfy bed instead of the intensive care ward with a catheter and IV and all the other strange sounds and people and kitties and doggies and mediciney things. And you know I'm very very very very happy to have him!



Charlie. My love. My big lug. "Thanks Mom for putting these towels on this chair, they make a really comfy bed!"


Shmoopie. My little quiet shadow kitty who likes to sit right on top of whatever I'm doing, especially if its "money papers" (bills).


Isabella. In another month or so she'll get taken to the groomers for her summer shave ~ they do a "lion cut" which is just the cutest thing. They leave her mane and feet and a little bob on the end of her tail. The rest is all bare! But in the hot hot hot summer weather, she's much cooler, and best of all, she loves the haircut!


And Saachi. Last but not least. He's my newest. He showed up a couple of weeks ago and just glommed onto us. He's an older, ratty, beat up sweet sweet sweet tomcat (who's not a tomcat anymore!). You can't see how cute his face is here because he's lolling in a post-catnip toy session and is a little stoned. (If you want the BEST catnip toys EVER, get these ~ HotCats Catnip Toys ~ OMG, they're fabulous, you won't be sorry!)

So that's pretty much how things go around here. I work, they lay around.
Next time I'm coming back as one of my own cats, if that's possible.

Student actors and actresses, student directors, student set designers, student artists, student costumes--UP THE DOWN STAIRCASE is an entirely-student show. And it's fun!

Friday's audience was mostly students, too! The tightly-scripted show is guaranteed to get laughs, but also explore the difficulties of teaching and learning when life is happening all around.

Kudos to all who participated. And break a leg on the 1:30 PM and 6:30 PM Saturday shows.
