Sophie is a very wise, powerful and all knowing cat-goddess. We must all bow down to her beauty and teachings
@Tallyollyopia How exciting! New jobs are always fun. So much to learn. Congratulations.
@Columbine I'm not actually having a bad day, but something very odd and creepy happened to me.......I changed my bedsheets and not one single cat, there's 6 here, bothered to charge the bed!!! Whaaaaat? [emoji]128562[/emoji]

Thank you, thank you, one and all!
Fabulous news @Tallyollyopia. I hope the training goes well and you enjoy the work, oh, and very importantly have nice colleagues.
@Rhondalee Zero cat helpers? That is weird.Were they up to serious 'no good' in some other area of your home, knowing that you were otherwise engaged and not likely to catch them? I think I can count on one finger the number of times I've managed to change a bed without a certain Mouse diving in to assist.I can't remember if he was fast asleap in another room or getting up to something else equally naughty at the time (bed making in my apartment almost always ends up with Mouse in 'time out').
Lol. That's cute. Ra is one very smart cat! He knows how to get what he wants.Thank you, thank you, one and all! I'm really excited about my new job! :happy3:
Poor Ra! After Rose and Princess got home from the vet I gave them a treat, and he decided he wanted one too, so he crawled into one of the carriers!
Well that's a crazy way to start your day! Did it break or tear your bag at all?Accidentally damaged some sort of plastic guard on someone's car today. Left the broken piece on their windshield with a note under it. Hopefully it's cheap to replace.
The kicker is that I wasn't in my car when that happened. I was just walking by the car and the piece caught on my bag and broke as I walked by. :slant:
That's good. That was nice of you to leave your info. There's not many people who would. Someone put a dent in my husbands new pick up 1 week after he got it. They didn't leave a note. It would have been nice to just get an "I'm sorry".@Rhondalee
No, the bag's fine. The piece was some sort of accessory that just clips or sits in place. It just snapped before I could even tell something was caught on the bag.
The person actually just called and thankfully they weren't mad. They were even glad that I left the info instead of just not saying anything. The piece isn't expensive (maybe a little steep for a piece of moulded plastic, but what can you do?), so everything worked out!
Thank you. And the cat really rules us all. (Except for me: they have to decide which cat is in charge first.
Congratulations @Tallyollyopia we miss you while you are slaving away.
Spent my morning on the phone with my health insurance company and the Hospital. the Hospital sent me a letter saying my claim was pending and that I should call the insurance company but the ins. company named on the letter wasn't mine! thankfully it was sent in error. Not sure how they will figure out who it should have gone to. It was for $13,000. I didn't think I'd be able to sleep last night worrying about it.
While I was on hold I dragged the cat tree to the wall Eclipse was meowing at. Of course that wasn't enough he also had to use me to reach a string he discovered holding some artwork on the wall. DS had a laugh at me as usual. He finds my misadventures with the cats, Eclipse especially, amusing.
Our cats are indoor/outdoor. The house is way too small for all five of them elsewise, and they hunt squirrels, rabbits, and probably other things that I have never seen them hunt before--so the rabies vaccination is essential. As is Neosporin, occasionally. (Not often; our babies are good at what they do.
@Tallyollyopia- are your cats indoor/outdoor? Mine don't leave the apartment so they don't get rabies shots (saves money).
Congratulations on the job, that should make it a little easier in the finance department.
@foxxycat-have you checked the labor laws in your state? I don't think it is legal to require people to work 7 days a week. How about overtime, does your company pay that? Do you have a union? Regarding getting fired: it depends on the reason for the absence. Anyone who has lost a job no matter what the reason is, should apply for unemployment benefits, not assume they are not eligible, that is up to the department to decide. Even a person who has quit may be eligible depending on the reason for the quit. Never assume anything, you are usually wrong.
Gee, shame you couldn't get a nice lump sum out of an insurance company but I know what you mean, I couldn't take someone elses money either.

Oh wow, you are so nice and honest. I've lost count of the number of times people have taken off my wingmirrors or similar when my car's been parked and never left any way to contact so I always have to pay.

In other news, we bought the smarty cat, hot pursuit toy for the kitties the other day. They would have a blast with it if Seamus wouldn't jump on it and keep it from moving. The little stinker. He hoards it.
