Be Careful What You Ask For.....

OK. so it has been awhile since I've posted and while there has been a lot going on, nothing to really post about right now. So I'm thinking what can I post about. Well, I went to a workshop last week so I'll post my thoughts on that. So that's what I started to do. That post will come later because after today, I have plenty to post about!



It started mid-morning, I'm working on laundry and I hear Mattie crying one of those "hurt cries". I go immediately to her and Caroline is trying to console her. Well, she was trying to fasten her into her chair and pinched her skin between the buckle and snap. It left a nice ouchie and Caroline felt awful. We did the "thank you for helping" and "Mattie still loves you" talk and everything was fine.



Soon after, I put Mattie down for her nap and hop in the shower. Next thing I know Caroline comes and peeks her head into the shower. She looked like she has seen a ghost. She says "Mommy I hurt my finger" and begins to show me. There is blood everywhere! Caroline has always been our accident prone child so I stay pretty calm. We wrap her finger applying pressure so I can get it to stop bleeding enough to assess the situation. She did quite a number, one of those do I take her to the doctor or not moments. Well, I call hubby and my mom, who happens to be a nurse, and after discussing the situation decide to wait a little longer. We've checked it several times and she seems to be ok.



We do lunch, more laundry, visit from Nana, and then nap time for Mattie again. So I decide to work on my post from this morning. I hear a noise from the kitchen. I go and see what it is.....my crazy cat has gotten on the counter. Yes that is gross! She has just started doing this and I'm trying to break her. I've tried the water spray.....oh no.....she loves water! What cat loves water? We've tried a little pat on the behind and out the door.....not working. So any ideas would be great! Anyhow... I had left a can of ravioli on the counter just because I didn't really feel like messing with it. So I walk into the eating area and there was the can of leftover ravioli on my carpeted floor.....yes we have carpet in our dining room which I can't stand. And my Crazy Cat with an orange head. She put her whole head in the ravioli can!! Ok. I just have to laugh! So I've just spent time with me and my best friend......the steam cleaner..... and thinking "You just gotta laugh!"

This picture does not do her justice but let me tell you...there was a mess all around her head and she was purring...loudly! Oh and if you look close enough that would be her tongue trying to get as much as she can.
