Election Day 2006

                  

Can you believe it is almost Thanksgiving?  I still have tons of halloween graphics I haven't used yet.  LOL  And I guess the day after Thanksgiving I will have to bring out the Christmas ones?

Today seems like a typical fall voting day.  Its been pouring rain all day.  The leaves that are still on the trees are pretty but there are lots in the roads today (guess the rain is working it's magic on the trees).

Fish oil.  Someone asked me about it.  I have stomach problems to begin with but I don't see the fish oil making things any worse.  I try to take the pills with food or a full glass of milk (although 8 oz of water would probably be better).  I have noticed (and mom has to -- she started taking fish oil before me) that I am sleeping better since I started taking the fish oil.  No one has ever told me that it was good for sleep.  Maybe it's a coincidence.  Or maybe it is a wonderful side effect.  Don't know, don't care.  Love being able to sleep better.

Sophie and Maggie have plenty of toys.  And they play with plenty of things that aren't meant to be cat toys.  When Sophie decided to lay on my hand and mouse last night it wasn't because she wanted a mouse to play with.  And Maggie doesn't start chewing anything made of paper just for the heck of it.  Nope, it took me awhile but I basically know what my babies are trying to tell me.  Sophie will come and lay on my hand and/or the computer mouse when she just wants me off the computer.  I can sign off and sit in front of the tv and she will curl up somewhere and go to sleep.

Maggie starts chewing on things and scratching on things that she shouldn't for 2 reasons.  1 she wants food.  The other reason is she wants the back door (to the screened in porch) openned.  She may not go out but for a second or two but if I close the door she will start acting up again.  It's weird.  It's crazy.

My cats have me trained so very well.

There are some message boards/groups that I am a member of that drive me crazy.  I don't know why I keep going back to some of them.  My blood pressure goes up everytime.  Why?  Mostly politics.  Mostly people that don't live in America giving their 2 cents about us.  I know.  They are intitled to their opinions, just like Americans are.  But it just bugs the #@*^ out of me for them to bash America, and then to say for me not to take it personaly.  Yeah, right.  Gotta stay away from politics Kathy, stay away.......LOL

Have you heard about the judge out in Utah that goes easy on sex offenders?  She even had a "ex parte" (spelling?) with a defense attorney and changed his clients sentence from 30 years down to 20 and told him NOT to tell the prosecutor.  Talk about illegal.  It would be great to see her sit in jail for awhile.
