KITS!

So for a short time last week Harmel and I had 5 kittens/cats. Our APARTMENT was loaded.

I used to work with a nurse who got very sick with cancer and could no longer care for them so Harmel and I told him we could find a good home for his three cats. However, that home happened to be our apartment for a night. Our two kittens didn't really appreciated it. There wasn't even an attempt to get along with the other three. All five of them hissed at each other every time they came within a foot of one another. Then again, I probably wouldn't like a stranger peeing in my litter box or eating out of my dish (our own kittens have separate food dishes as it is).


The next day Harmel brought the three that aren't ours out to his mom and dad's farm. I was a little nervous at first because they are house cats, and as soon as Harmel let them out of the kennel two of them ran away. However, we were there on Sunday and I saw all three of them.

When I'm Bored

So my Mom and Dad left for Mexico on Tuesday...leaving my younger brother, Ian, home alone.

Today Harmel worked til 12:30. So between the time of dropping him off at work (at 5:45 am) and picking him up again I got to sleep in and then clean the entire house. Talk about a rockin' Saturday. Not to mention the fact that I didn't even shower or do my hair this morning...and so now I know I look like a tractor. After picking Harmel up from work (and waiting half an hour for him to get out) I then dropped him off at McQueen Park so he could launch rockets and have a run-through of the Cadet snow derby with his boys in the afternoon.

So now I'm visiting Ian! Woo hoo. Obviously we're bonding. Just kidding. We went for lunch together and now I'm doing laundry at my parents house so that I don't have to pay $6 a load at home. (RIDICULOUS).

This is what happens when I have nothing to do...the laundry actually gets done. And the house actually gets clean. I just don't know how the 2 of us make so much laundry.

Yeah, that's like 5 loads of laundry! In one weeks! I think it's cause of Harmel. I'm not a dirty person :)

Meewy Christmas

Just in case you didn't know Harmel and I aquired 2 beautiful little kittens about 2 months ago. Rembrandt is a sweet and lovable boy, who is always ready for some affection...while VanGogh is a spitfire girl, always ready to attack anything that swings her way.



Harmel doesn't really believe in dressing animals, and really neither to I, but a couple weeks before Christmas my mom and I went to Dollarama and I just couldn't resist. They had small sweaters for dogs...for only $1!! I bought them! When Harmel and I got home that night I took VanGogh into our room and put her sweater on her and then asked Harmel to pass me Rembrandt so I could dress him accordingly. It was the funniest thing either of us has ever seen.



Over the past month we've put them on numerous times and everytime VanGogh claws hers off and then proceeds to help her brother. That is if they're not flopped on the ground first. Apparently, the sweaters make it a little difficult for them to walk.



Here's a picture Harmel managed to snap while they were eating.

Here Fishy!

This is the newest fad in pedicures and although it's not available world-wide at the moment is has definetly been hitting the news.

Small tanks are filled with hundreds of little fish which eat at the dead skin on your feet. Because they have no teeth it's impossible for them to eat anything that is not dead. And best of all...it doesn't hurt...it tickles!

So go give it a try! Let those little fishies eat away your old dead skin!
