school's out!!

I had my last class day today at Preschool!!..it was a good year, but I am ready for a break!!..I have one class of 3 yr olds and one class of 4yr olds- handfuls, both of them, but in general good kids!

I was blessed with loads of gifts, cards and gift cards this week!!..one of the perks of being a teacher!

cats!

We adopted 2 kitties about a year and a half ago, they are sisters and are now close to 2 yrs old. One of them has always been more social, will occasionally grace us with getting on our laps etc...but generally they are not interested in us. The whole saying that cats dont have owners, they have staff, certainly applied here!!..we were considering finding them a new home since we sure didnt get any benefits out of having them, and they leave hair everywhere and have scratched holes in our window screens and on our new-ish sofa!!

Well this past month when we had the hardwoods refinished, they were boarded at our vet for a week. They were together in a "condo" and did just fine. When we brought them home they are completely different!!...we have a hard time sitting down without one of them jumping into our laps!!..wow, what a change!!!...it has been a couple of weeks and they are still wanting to be with us..so, old cat..new tricks?...now we are so happy to have them!!
