Animal farm..welcome sign is out...

wasn't I just saying last week.."there must be a wayward pets welcome" sign out front?...Big Bob found 4 kittens in a box along the side of the road..we are keeping at least one...looking for homes for the others...we are keeping a calico and calling her "Princess"...I want to keep one of the black and whites..he looks like our big cat "Squeak", I call him "Mini-squeak"..LOL...the morning they arrived the deer were in the field, just playing deer games (like "reindeer games")which looks a lot like "tag"...so that's JUST what I needed..4 kittens..but they are cute and funny..we read the Sunday paper today with them on the bed..."organized confusion"...that's what it is..

this is not helping my brain....on Thurs I came home to find a message on my ans. machine from my hairdresser.."Barbara, did you forget me?"...so I called her back and told her, quite confidently, I might add, that my appt. was NEXT Thurs..May 29"..she said, very patiently, "This IS May 29"...so I hightailed it up there!!! LOL

Fri I saw the dr....who would not renew one of my prescrips unless I came in..I told him that was very clever!..he's so nice...anyway...with questions of anemia and cholseterol levels he ordered blood work ASAP...so I had to go in Sat. morning,...then I had to go to a self-study meeting for our Teacher Center. (the self-study being required by NYS in order to get our grant money for operating)that lasted until noon..I left when the arguing broke out!!

also got a call from a retired teacher I know asking if I would be interested in tutoring..at first I was going to say no...but it is right in town and $35/hr..it could continue into summer...and maybe into retirement...we'll see...

only 11 class days until final exams...so study hard, girls!!..LOL...

dd is working 2 jobs..at my school and at a NYS campground....back to college in Sept...

ANOTHER rainy weekend here....we saw Analyze That on video last night..very funny..and last week, "Bruce Almighty"..VERY VERY funny..I laughed until I cried!!..highly recommended!1

tale care, buddies!!

I think the black one with alot of white on the face and chest is adorable!! Get a female if you can, so much easier, no "marking".

Thank Big Bob for me for saving those precious kittens! I don't think there's anything cuter or more entertaining than a kitten. Any luck finding homes for the others yet?

Hope all your blood work turns out to be good news. Take care of yourself and have a good last 10 days of school!!

Hugs, Pam

That was so neat of Bob to pick them up, Dutch. I think he's got to be our hero of the week.

The tutoring job sounds great. I think I'd snap that up in a minute!

I guess this proves what they say...only your hairdresser knows for sure!

Dutch,

Congrats on being mom to new kitties. Seems you have pix, care to share?

I use to have cats myself and miss them. Have a 6 lb. dog now though and afraid the cats are bigger. LOL P.J. doesn't like cats and I've already seen who wins that contest. The cat!
