Kittens, kids and kitchen tools

I am proud to announce that we have a litter of week old kittens. We do foster care for some of the local animal rescue teams and they had a cat who had just given birth to kittens. Well, me being the animal lover that I am of course jumped at the chance to have babies in the house. Remind me to call my therapist.....So I have given up my big bathtub...not for lent....for cats. I even boiled chicken today and gave some to the cat. Ok, yes I was making chicken soup and already had the chicken cooking, but I chopped it up in tiny little bits and served it warm. What is wrong with me? I make a salad for the guinea pig everynight, chicken for the cat...they eat better than I do.

The boy is officially two and showing every bit of his HOT LATIN TEMPER. I was warned by my peditrition(a latin male) yesterday that I have not lived until I have raised a latin 3 year old male. This did not make me feel any better. It just confirms my suspicions that I may not live thru this. I am trying to figure out some painless method to wean him from the bottle. My daughter is convinced he will be waving to me out the window of the big yellow bus, with bottle hanging from his teeth. Yeah, well.....

I have officially joined the world of home based businesses, I am now a Pampered Chef. Maybe more like a confused, unorganized, stressed Chef, but I have hope. I am actually really excited and I think that I will enjoy it. I have been waiting for my new consultant kit to arrive, and don't you know yesterday it gets here. Well, that's great you say? Fed-Ex dude was not a happy camper...you see when it rains at my house I don't have gutters and therefor I have a beautiful waterfall in front of my door, we did not have to pay extra for this added feature I want you to know....at least I don't think so...(ok...I hit the dang italics button on accident and can't get it turned off.) So he smiles, more like a sneer, and says it's really heavy. I told him to just leave it on the door step since I had all three dogs trying to push me out of the way. They did not want to get to the Fed-ex man, they are not vicious, they wanted my new toys. They knew that there was something wonderful in those big boxes, something that I would use in their favorite room of the house, then once I had used said items and placed the wonderful delectible tidbits on the counter to cool, one of them....usually the little guy would create a diversion and the other two would jump up on the counters and steal whatever I have put there, this is a con they run daily. Poor little Wolfie, never gets the goods, and the other two big mooses won't share with him..maybe that is why he is so grumpy. Ok, back to the other part of this story, I being the most generous and loving wife, have yet again sacraficed and took my poor husbands cold from him...so now I am feeling like doo doo. I could not even enjoy my new kitchen goodies, last night. It was like Christmas in my living room and I could not even enjoy it. I did however play today and woooowweeeeee was it fun. I just know that I am going to be my very best customer.
