This was a prompt from last weeks writers workshop and I had to write about it because it was such a fun topic and there are tons of things that could complete the sentence. I think I am going to just list things that I am and then explain why on some of them.

Those are just the few things that came first to me. I know I could go on and on with a list but no one has time to read that.
I am going to show you the nails I had done for Halloween this year. Now I already have these ones off because I had my nails done on the 28th but I wanted to save this post for Halloween because other than getting my nails done for Halloween I really can’t stand the holiday and most of the things that go along with it. This year I didn’t want to do orange or any of the others things I have done in the past because I am just over orange and the usual things that people do on their nails.
This year I decided to just do a black cat face with lime green on rest of the nails. Here are the pictures of my Halloween 2013 nails:
I have to say that I have heard “those are cute Halloween nails” more than I thought I would. I guess you can see that they are Halloween nails but they aren’t over the top and your typical Halloween colors & design.
This week for the writers workshop I choose to write about number four which is: Your pets least likable character trait. I chose this one because I could literally list several things that she does that drives me up the wall and this is the one thing that drives everyone in my house insane.
Since I moved back home a few years ago Elinore has started only using the litter boxes to pee in them and not when she poops. She will go out side of the box in the laundry room and on the rug that we have right next in front of the door from the garage. I have no idea why she does this and what made her start doing this but needless to say everyone is tired of it.
When she does go outside and go to bathroom she will poop in the lawn but she will only pee in dirt or in a litter box so it isn’t like she doesn’t know what the litter box is for. She just seems to not want to use it when she poops. I have googled reasons why she has started doing this but everyone knows with cats you never know why they start to do crazy things.
If any of you have any advice on how to stop her from doing this I would greatly appreciate it.
What is one thing that your pet does that drives you insane?
This is a question that was on Band Back Together site a few weeks ago and I am just getting around to writing the post about it. The question is what is the most important thing in my life. This was something that was easy for me to answer because I know without a doubt that the most important things to me are my two cats.
I could live without pretty much everything else but I don’t know how I would live without my two girls. It is crazy to me how much my two cats have become like my kids and are “replacement” kids for my daughter I placed for adoption. I am not sure people who haven’t placed a child for adoption would understand that last statement and I am not sure how to explain it to make them understand. I guess the best way to explain it is that when you place your child for adoption you still have the desire to mother something so instead getting pregnant again I got my two girls.
Father’s Day started out like any other Sunday at our house. I was woken up at about 6:50 or so by my grandparents cat which as I look back on it now should have been my first clue that something wasn’t right.
Anyway back to my story. I was looking through the Target ad and saw that they had Dr. Pepper on sale so I decided I was going to run over to Target and then come back and work on designs. As I was getting dressed I heard what sounded like finger nails on the wall under my bed. The first time I heard it I didn’t think anything of it but when I heard it again I knew that there was something alive under my bed and it wasn’t one of my cats.
I finished getting dressed and then went and told my grandma that I thought there was a mouse or even a bird under my bed. She came down to my room and started looking under my bed. I ran to get a flash light and once she turned it on and looked under the bed she saw what was making the noise.
There was a BABY BIRD under my bed and it was very much alive. Needless to say this immediately freaked me out. I went and got my grandpa and we started to chase the bird around my room and into my grandparent’s room for the next hour.
Needless to say when we finally caught it my whole room was torn apart and a total mess. My grandma and I then spent rest of the day cleaning my room and doing laundry since my entire bed had to be moved while we were trying to catch the bird.
Let’s just say I have never had an issue with birds before but now I find them totally creepy and I want nothing to do with them. I also am going to be sleeping with my door closed because I can’t handle any more critters getting brought into my room! Oh and it was my grandparents cat Vinnie that brought the bird in because my cats are terrified of birds.
I hope your Father’s Day was tons better than mine!
I haven’t posted about my cats in awhile so I figured that I would post about them. I took this pictures a few weeks ago when my Grandparents were out of town. If you want to see any of the pictures bigger just click on them.
Also here are 2 videos I took of the girls as well.
