7/24/11: Say hello to my little friend!

 

On the recommendation from my SIL Kim, I got me one these spot bot pet machines.  Holy hell, I love!  This nifty little humdinger is awesome for those times when the cats horse down their food and then promptly hack it up 30 minutes later.  Or when the dogs do the exact same thing.  Or when the kids decide to spill juice or God knows whatever else they happen to have.  All you have to do is set this little machine over top of your stain, hit the button, and walk away!  You don't even have to do the work!  It does it all for you and works great!  I can't tell you how much I was able to get cleaned in the basement while simultaneously cleaning cat barf.  It's the little things in life that get me excited these days...

3/15/11: A full house

This is what our bed looks like all.the.time. Except usually Paul and I are both in it too.  4 of the 5 animals sleep in our room at night. Kalie sleeps at my feet.  Ace sleeps on the floor on his own big pillow.  Stu is usually in the room somewhere, sometimes at my head, sometimes at Paul's feet.  Roman starts off who knows where, and always, ALWAYS ends up in between Paul and I, under the covers, with his head on the pillow. It's really annoying and cute all at the same time. As much as it may be uncomfortable or annoying there is something comforting about having your animals near you when you sleep.  It just feels different if they aren't there.  So while I get tired of the meowing and the barking, I really do love these guys!
