We'll still be here when you have time. :o)<BR/>And don't worry, they do get older and more independent. I check on the 14yo from time to time, but she really is pretty independent with her studies now.<BR/>Give the cat a teaspoon of Brewer's yeast every day. That should keep the fleas off. Our indoor cats had a terrible infestation one year when we brought in our indoor plants for the winter. Fleas are good at hitching rides.<BR/>Peace and Laughter,<BR/>Cristinajugglingpayneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10921293051956441475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545490918488056044.post-20475444999602349662007-09-18T17:27:00.000-05:002007-09-18T17:27:00.000-05:00I'm finding blogging time difficult too.

Maybe it's that I resent it more this year? Maybe it's that I'm getting older and am more aware of the fleeting nature of down-time with my kids? Maybe I'm a stick in the mud who hates change? I'm working through similar issues and begging God to help me manage my time better.<BR/><BR/>Blogging is such a necessary outlet for me, now that I've started it. It's like I have all this writing in me and now that I let a little trickle out, it's gushing and I can't find enough buckets to pour it into! Sometimes, I pull back, skip a day or two and find it so hard to get the words to flow again. And I have found, for ME, that when I set aside time to get my thoughts out, I'm processing other parts of my life with more clarity. Like I've made more room in that cavernous space in my head :)<BR/><BR/>But again, I know those blahs. I've got those blahs and some of their friends lurking around when I'm not corralling them!The Gang's Momma!https://www.blogger.com/profile/12478478224173323982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545490918488056044.post-39208078527192751402007-09-18T11:39:00.000-05:002007-09-18T11:39:00.000-05:00Trust me, we all understand.

Of course her fleas come by way of the dog, should I forget it's liquid pesticide spot.<BR/><BR/>Many internet jokes about bathing cats in the toilet exist. My favorite is "How to give a cat a pill" which also involves the use of a toilet. I laughed so hard I cried. Many stopped by my office to see what the fuss was all about. Sadly, I was unable to tell them... just gesture at a piece of paper making monkey noises.A&EMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10084289956089686543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545490918488056044.post-58351610196921765032007-09-17T20:05:00.000-05:002007-09-17T20:05:00.000-05:00Sorry, I was laughing thinking about your poor kit...Sorry, I was laughing thinking about your poor kitty in the sink being sprayed with the sprayer.

Now there is none, and I don't feel good to boot. Oh well, God will make a way. I know this. He called me to it, and He will make a way so long as it is His will that I continue. (That and I just really like it.) Stop by sometime. :) Blessings sister.Shalenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14550373906934164067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545490918488056044.post-87178856132299212662007-09-17T11:50:00.000-05:002007-09-17T11:50:00.000-05:00You cracked me up this morning when I read your wa...You cracked me up this morning when I read your warning about not wearing a black and yellow striped shirt! thanks.<BR/><BR/>I love what you had to say about who we hang out with.

I have had the EXACT same thought about putting her in my shower, close the door and hope she runs around in there long enough to get clean. :0)<BR/><BR/>Don't worry about not having time to blog. With school started again, I've been slow to blog myself. When I do, its in the middle of the night when everyone is asleep, except me. lolNeeCeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00764451925268091851noreply@blogger.com
