Tuesday Text: Parentexting™

The one where we take iWhining™ to a whole new level:
The mother must always be a calming force. I take the blame for stirring the Giants pot, but the rest is up to her. Right? How'm I doing?

And what exactly is a cat lady?

One report in the New York Times, hypothesizes that "cat lady" like behavior may be due to the effects of toxoplasmosis — an infection caused by T. gondii and spread by cats which has effects upon mental health. [6] The article cites one scientist who claims the idea is "not completely crazy."

Translation: She has been in her room too long. Go down and get her out. Now.

I'm terrified of becoming a cat lady too. That is why I like dogs;)

YOu are doing great!

A cat lady is a woman who ends up living alone with a zillion cats . . .

Great job Mom. Keep them stable and focused.

You're the voice of reason!

um a cat lady can be a tragic event if you are a dog lady. Some people can be a both lady. What pearls of wisdom drip from your texting thumbs. Time for the birds to come home for some real time Mama. You know how it is when your team loses, you just gotta eat sumthin.

Well, there's that woman who keeps having plastic surgery and looks like a cat and then there are the women who bring home/adopt stray after stray until the whole house is filled with cats .. I dont think Bird fits either of those profiles...

Keep her out of the cat nip and you'll both be fine.

It's a bag lady but with cats which is even more terrifying. You know why you're a great Mom? You're texting your kids to keep in touch!

I know what the cat lady is.

It's sort of like the old lady who lived in a shoe...

A cat lady is me minus the chihuahuas plus the cats.

Ohhhh....that's so funny! Poor Dear....I think all young, stressed out, too busy for dating? girls fear becoming The Cat Lady.

You know, the Old Lady who never comes out of her house....other than to pick up more treats for her Babies and litter for their boxes.

The Husband opines that I'll be The Cat Lady someday......;-)
