Itty Bitty Blood Pressure Committee:

Thanks for the medicine hints.

The towel swaddling works like a charm,

and Noelle is feeling like a new kitty.

She should be...

Now I'm off to my next adventure...

We get to finish shopping for college.

Cash For Mama's Junk?

Dear President Obama,

I don't have a clunker to cash in on, but I do have a few things sitting around here that I was wondering if you'd consider taking off my hands. Okay?

• About 30 pair of jeans in varying sizes.
• Some kimonos purchased during my All-Things-Asian phase.
• All the orange and brown lipsticks that come in those Clinique Gift With Purchase Bags.
• All my tight white t-shirts.
• All of my children's SAT and AP Prep books.
• All my sparkly hair scrunchies.
• All my springform cake pans.
• An exercise bike.
• An ab roller.
• 6 yoga mats and 5 yoga videos.
• My American Express and Visa bills.
• My mortgage.

I know you're busy and all, but I figured that now I could get some help. Then I could go out and do my part for the economy. I look forward to hearing from you soon

Kind regards,

Mental P Mama

PS--Give Michelle and the girls my best.

This-n-That Thursday

Nonsense:

• I am older than President Obama.
• I feel older than dirt sometimes.
• Anybody have tips on getting liquid meds into a cat. Said cat has not been declawed.
• I think I already need stronger reading glasses.
• I am hopelessly addicted to the Word Warp game on my iPhone.
• What's the best thing to put on cat scratches?
• I am an expert at growing crab grass.
• I love Shark Week on the Discovery channel.
• My children have been on vacation for the last week, and I am fine. This college business might just be okay. Maybe.

Gone to the Beach...

...with my own personal lifeguard.

See ya.

Nine Lives

We've had a drama filled week here in Mental Land.

Noelle the resident cat was diagnosed with congestive heart failure.

We rushed her to the animal hospital where they drained the fluid

in her chest cavity and put her in an oxygen tank for two days.

When she came home Friday night she was skin and bones.

And her sister Dora took over her care.

Best friends.

She's already feeling better and putting on some weight.

I am thinking cats really do get many lives.

Our next stop will be the kitty cat cardiologist.

My wallet can hardly wait.

(Sorry for the fuzzy pictures, my phone was all I had at the moment)

Great Expectations

Guess I don't have any more excuses. Better get my game face on....
