I have discovered that putting someone in KF does no good, they just keep showing on other posts of people I read. I just wish we could drop some of the stuff and move on back to our "family" type caring. Yeah, I know old lady wants harmony and life isn't like that.

....have it sitting here next to me on the couch, and still can't grab it up quick enough to get snapshots and video of the masters' playing. Of course, first I have to find my glasses so I can actually *see* the phone and spend ten minutes looking for them before DH tells me they're on my...

Quick, somebody start a flame war - it's urgent, I need a recipe! ; My ex Monster-In-Law had only one good thing going for her - she cooked, and baked, from scratch, anything she put on her table. I'd gotten most of recipes and techniques early on in the marriage, but one this one that I'm...

Hi the I was out in the backyard trying to plant when the cats, particuarly Chester, started being crazy. They were running around chasing each other and then Chester climbed the chainlink fence and finally, the huge ornamental crabapple, currently in blossom. He had a big fall from...

Last night, there was suddenly an aweful noise from the kitchen. Joel rushed over to find it was coming from the computer, specifically from the CDrw drive, which had suddenly turned itself on (otherwise the computer was idle, flicking through its screensaver, and had been for several hours)....

Anyone wake up in the morning or come home to bird feathers in the shower, or worse yet bird beaks, legs, feathers and guts on the carpet? Our cats are the best fed cats in Oklahoma, but they still love to have a good ole' bird murder weekly. We sometimes catch them and pry the bird out of...

It was as I feared. Her kidneys were too far gone. So I made the painful decision; Persia went to the bridge this afternoon. The vet gave me a little heart shaped stone "memory box" with some of her fur in it. She will be cremated and her ashes returned to me. Heartfelt thanks to all of you...

Real Life has swallowed me whole lately, but we have been sending purrs out into the aether to be distributed as needed by the mothership, and will continue to do so. Hubert has decided that dishtowels do not belong on the oven door. They just don't. He's very businesslike about it; he'll walk...

On another group I mentioned that since I deaf I can't hear water running and a friend replied with her efforts to get her cat to stop turning the water on. Reposted here with her permission. "Jo Firey" wrote in message ... My big problem...

I know real life interferes at times but this ng has suddenly gone quiet. :( Jill

Since I've reached the stage in life where I've been reading the obits to see if I'm on the list yet, in reading them this morning I found one a bit unusual. A beloved lady had passed on and, of course, there was a list of survivors - - husband, son, step-sisters and -brother, beloved friends - ...

When our kitties decide to "become bad" and "get" us, we know that they usually turn sideways and hunch up, or as my friend calls it, becoming a "witch kitty". Then they will likely run and paw at us, then dash off into the other room, daring us to follow, at our peril. Well, my big 19-pound...

He's filled out quite a bit in the week he's been here. When he first came his little tummy was just about touching his backbone. http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/Garvin/ -- Hugs,

I don't get it. Are kids like dogs? LOL It's all over the news that there is a frequency that kids can hear and most adults cannot. It was said that when it was discovered, the tone was used in a store somewhere in Europe that had a teen population that the proprietors didn't want loitering, so...

Siamese cats are not by nature a needy animal. They are aloof. Masters of all they survey. They may permit scritches if it makes us happy and they may even share the occasional purr. Physical closeness is also permitted and everyone knows shared body heat is a good thing. And of course an...

Boy, has this been a week! I found out that someone else got the computer tech job that I had been REALLY looking forward to. Nancy called HR at her employer's home newspaper about a job she'd like to move to, and has still not gotten a call back (but she's still applying). I've been pulling...

The other two, with minimum complaint, accept flea collars. Ding shook his off within minutes last season. Tonight, all I did was unroll the thing, as he was enjoying the lap scratching (and I was not enjoying grooming out the fleabits)...BOOM....struggle. He just wanted to get away, and clearly...

My brain is so tired it's hard to think, but i think i'll let it operate a little more so I can vent. First of...
