Livvy and the Spaghetti Monster

Tuesday, January 24, 2012

The other day, I prepared spaghetti for dinner. As I was waiting for the big stockpot of water to boil, I wrested open the box of “Thin Spaghetti” and placed it on the counter. Being a mom, I then rushed off to accomplish a billion other jobs in the meantime. A minute or two later, [...]

Another week rolls around! Only a few more of them until we hit the Mayan-prophesied catastrophe, right??? (Nothing like a bit o’ sarcasm to start off the Monday, eh? Can be a better jolt than coffee, sometimes). OK OK I’ll get started. Here are this week’s questions. 1. My favorite kind of animal is _______? [...]

In case you didn’t know, WAHM is an acronym for Work At Home Mom. I love– just love– working at home. I never ever thought it possible, but here it is! I hope it lasts forever, because I just love my jobs (pro-blogging and writing freelance). The work is sometimes a little overwhelming, but I [...]

EWWWW! The kids just informed me that my beloved kitten has just eaten her first ladybug. It all started when my daughter saw a ladybug crawling around on the kitchen floor. She attempted to pick up the bug to get it on her hand (to take the bug outside to freeze to death, I suppose! [...]

I Need Some Cat Advice

Not advice from cats. Advice from people. With cats. Livvy was spayed today. She was a good girl at the vet clinic, but she’s feeling pretty lousy tonight.
