Wilkes and Booth, Filters, Misty wanting Attention

 

I loved history when I was

in school but it is amazing

the things at my age that I 

can still learn things like this~

John Wilkes Booth's brother

Edwin, 

saved the life of 

President Lincoln's son.

Robert

 just

a year before John Booth

killed the president.

WOW....I had no clue.

You know what else I have 

learned, never unwrap

paper coffee filters from 

the plastic wrap.

Why do I say this?

For years I have taken my

filters out of the package 

and 

placed them in a Tupperware

dish with a lid on it.

But I have learned that this

causes the filter to spread

out, making it hard to 

have the filter stay flush with 

the sides of the coffee maker.

Not having that flush can cause

it to pull away from the 

cup it sits in and allows grounds

to make its way into my coffee.

This last bout of filters, 

I did not remove from the package,

just opened it and I pull

a filter out when I need to.

Yes, I know, silly thing to learn

this late in life!!

Misty is somewhat jealous of Amber

and Cory when they call. More so for

Amber Howell. She can actually be in another

room or laying next to me, but when I start

talking on the phone to either, she will start talking

to me, meowing, then climbs up on me and starts

butting heads. These pics were taken last night,

the last pic was her curled up on the bed,

after I talked with Amber!

These KIDS!!!

Haha

Somewhat like my real

kids, they always wanted

to ask questions when I was

on the phone with anyone when

the kids were young.

Told you, Misty thinks I 

am her mom.

Do your pets ever want

your attention when

you are on the phone with

someone?
