Aack!! Help! 2010

Wish me luck.  This is the weekend I'm going to look in my convertible and hope it is clear of any live or dead kittens.

Eek, Del.  Go in there with good thoughts in your head.  Be quiet and confident, yet trepidatious and kind and forgiving.  Not a small task, I know, but try to keep it in perspective in terms of all of the other gigantic nightmares that you're living through right now.

Heck, there's lots of folks in this world who picture homeless and helpless kittens in their minds when they're trying to think of lovely things in life, things to live for, to scoop up and cuddle with and give love to, blah blah blah...

Remember the mantra -- "For every problem, there IS a solution.  For every problem, there IS a solution.  For every problem, there IS a solution."

Good luck, girl.  Let us know how it turns out manana.

Yay!

No kittens, no bodies, no smell, no mess!  They're just gone.

Car smells like my old car smell.  I checked under the driver's seat yesterday and will check under the passenger seat today, make sure no one is home, then I'm going to bug bomb the car, toss in a solution of bleach and water, then have the jeep towed to my mechanic to have him charge up the battery, do an oil change.  Then when I drive it home, I'm going to take the doors off so no other cat gets the idea that this was a great place to have kittens.

yay! Go kitties!

Looked out my window last week and saw in my backyard, out cavorting under a hot summer night sky, a yellow momma cat and three healthy, lively kittens.

Hey Del, how's the rest of your home ownership and all the problems you're dealing with going for you?

Slow.

There is just not enough storage space, so I still have boxes sitting and bags of clothing and 4 empty shelves remaining.

The will is almost settled, so pretty soon, instead of upkeep coming out of a joint account it will be me paying it and I find myself very reluctant to pay someone every two weeks to mow grass I don't particularly care to have.  And no, I don't want to do it myself in 100 degree weather in a backyard that has fleas, poison ivy and mosquitos.

I'm barely moved in and already my sister is saying things like,

"Can you move out sooner?  I don't want to move in the summer..."

I've already reminded her that last time I was looking for financing for a car - the year I graduated college and finally got a full-time job - I was told by my bank that they required at least 5 years history with a job before they would consider me for a loan.  So I told my sister that I may not completely vacate at the end of my two year stint, because I may not be able to qualify for a home loan for a few more years.

She was not happy to hear that.
