Chair-ish the Kids, Art Showing, Son, Shot Records, Donation, Checks, Cat and Brats
Well, dummy me did not fille
last year's taxes in
the file cabinet,
truth be told, I have
not filed anything
in there in YEARS.
A box here, a stack there,
a drawer full, is my filing system
basically. But moving
on from that,
looking for those papers took
me down the biggest rabbit hole.
I pulled all those stacks, drawers,
and boxes together
and started the
clean out task.
Now I have a large plastic
tote full of things to
shred, a crate for
recent things (past yr)
to be filed,
and bags of trash.
I took two, two
drawer file cabinet
(stuffed), down to
one barely holding stuff now.
One file cabinet was mine,
and one was mom's.
I did keep a few things
of mom's, mainly family
search papers.
I had a folder in my cabinet
for certificates, brochures,
and things like that.
I ran across these.
Brochures from Kids on the Block
(puppets) fund raisers.
I was a part of those fund
raisers for four years.
Also, from my cabinet I
found these to invites from
my painting teacher, when she
had a show.
Our local paper in Hermitage
ran a story about the
elementary school and my son
was in it. That is him
bottom right in the dark
shirt.
From my mom's cabinet I found
my dad's shot record when he
was in the Navy.
A racing book with my
brother Ray and
nephew Chase in it,
donating money to the
Ronald McDonald House.
I know I have said it
before and I will probably say it
more as the years go by, my
mom kept everything. Always
in order, filed and labeled so nicely.
With that said, I ran across two
uncashed checks.
One for 32 cents and one
from Calif. for 11 cents.
Thanks mom, that gave me
a good laugh.
I also ran across all the
paperwork from police report,
to lawyer paperwork, court dates
and even the boys that stole my
younger brother's car back in
the early 80s.
Oh, forgot to mention, the 11 cent
check was dated for Feb., 1961.
Oh my gosh, I saw these pics
on FB with what the human
to this cat had to say about the
cat. ~~~
I got my cat from a kill
shelter. He was
found on the side of
the road in a box
and he was too young
to be away from
his mother. He was
tiny, they guessed at
6 weeks. I brought
him home and bottle
fed him. They said he
was a red tipped
siamese. He is now a 26
pound “puma”
size terrorist! He
gets in so much trouble
Here he is in the
refrigerator. Which he
learned how to open
in the middle of the
night. I heard noise in the
kitchen and saw a light
on. He threw all the
food out of the refrigerator
and climbed in!
We now have a lock
on the fridge
to keep him out! This
is my asshole “Blue”
When I read things like this
I am so
that my babes are not total
hellions like this!
Lily might run across my body
to wake me, yell at me
to get me to rub her head,
yell at me cause she is
demanding her food NOW,
or wanting to go out.
Misty might jump in my
lap and head butt me to tell
me it is TREAT time
or run out in front of me
to get somewhere before me,
but then as soon as she
does, she slows down to a
snail's pace, almost tripping me.
But, my cats have never
scratched the furniture,
tore up the blinds or climbed
the curtains. They
have not learned
to open the fridge
door and throw
out the rood either.
I am
Let's go back to Misty
for a min.
She is like a babysitter,
I have watched her
copy things that Lily has
done in the past.
The other day while in
the bedroom folding clothes,
I had the top chester
drawers open to
put more clothes in it.
Lily jumped up on the
dresser, walked across it,
jumped from there to the
the chester drawers and
made her way into the open
drawer. She laid there a bit,
then jumped down.
With in a min of Lily leaving,
Misty followed in the same
footsteps, following right behind
how her big sister did it.
Oh my!
On top of that, she
decided the other
morn to wake me by running
over my body!
BRAT!!!
Little critter is going to go
blind if she don't stop
sitting on the cable box
watching tv that close!
By the way, if you are wondering,
NO,
I have no clue where I put my
taxes from last yr. Going
to call Farm Bureau in the morn
and see if they have a copy of it.
Funny thing, it's in this house,
and I have looked everywhere it
could be, or maybe not.
Well in the famous words of
Scarlett in Gone with
the Wind,
"I'll think about that tomorrow.
Tomorrow is another day."
Speaking of which, do you have
a famous quote from a
movie you have seen?
Pam
