By Fab Hub’s request, it’s time for another round of Five Favorites for Friday. As I booted up the laptop, I thought this in my head:

Five Minutes
It has been a very long week around here. Everyone is tired. We are all just a little bit cranky. My feet hurt. I have very little brain power available and I still have fifteen things to finish before I can even pretend to think about going to sleep. Is it Friday yet?

Scattered Thoughts for a Lazy Friday
I meant to have a post ready for today…honest. And then, as I often say, life got in the way. This is not a bad thing. In fact, it’s very good. It’s been a busy week. Allow me to share some updates, observations and discoveries…

Top Ten Reasons the Three Rotten Cats Drive Me Insane
If you’ve been here before, you know that I (a self-proclaimed cat-hater) have the distinct pleasure of living with Three Rotten Cats. These bad boys make it their life’s work to find ways to annoy me. This is a fun game for them. It is not a fun game for me. This week, in honor of their…

Insomnia
Nothing is more silent than the sound of the night watch. The running refrigerator is annoying company. Until it stops. Ah, but there is the sound of the central air pump. And gone. Cats snore in near perfect unison. Aren’t they supposed to be nocturnal? Traitors.

My Bad Day Monday
Monday was kind of a bad day. Although after sitting here for a while with a cup of hot homemade soup, poking around the headlines and getting a few reminders that there are far worse things in other people’s lives than I had to deal with.

How a Self-Proclaimed Cat Hater Ends Up Living with Three Rotten Cats
As I write this, my Fabulous Husband is finishing up some vacuuming…to rid our home of this week’s allotment of cat hair! This is part of why he is fabulous. A) I haven’t touched a vacuum cleaner since we got married (HATE vacuuming more than cleaning toilets) and B) he is in charge of all…

A Simple Meal
Ever have one of those days where you just don’t want to eat? OK, so this really doesn’t happen to me all that often. Believe me, I am not a woman who says no to a meal. But tonight, nothing inspired. I even intentionally engaged in the “what do you want to do about dinner”…

A Perfect Fourth
When I first wake up, before I hit an upright position, I only open one eye. I’m not sure why, but it happens every morning without fail. It could be physiological. It could be because I live with a Kidzilla and Three Rotten Cats. Perhaps my subconscious brain intuitively knows that under such circumstances, keeping one eye open…
