:(
My cat, Chun Li passed away today. She was a spunky, and quite lovely half-tabby, half-Persian. We purchased her as a teeney-tiny kitten in January of 1995 (she was born in November). She was a gift from my husband due to the fact that our first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. So she has been… Continue reading 🙁
Feel the Love in This Family!
My husband was speaking to my mother-in-law today. She randomly mentioned to my husband that we “better not make anymore babies” (my husband has not told her yet). My husband asked “well, what if we do?” “Then you’re just stupid!” And she hung up on him. I am so tired of people. No one sticks… Continue reading Feel the Love in This Family!

The second person said they agreed,… Continue reading Surprise!!!

What Shamu Taught Me About a Happy Marriage
I forget where I saw this (NYT — registration), but it is a scream: AS I wash dishes at the kitchen sink, my husband paces behind me, irritated. “Have you seen my keys?” he snarls, then huffs out a loud sigh and stomps from the room with our dog, Dixie, at his heels, In the… Continue reading What Shamu Taught Me About a Happy Marriage
