Cat riding Roomba
There’s no way my cats would stand for this. It’s too noisy. But this is a very funny video, stolen shamelessly from Sarah. Nope. I can’t see Tig or Gracie doing anything but running in shock and horror from a … Continue reading
Thanksgiving break
I am heading up to NJ tomorrow morning to spend the holiday with my family for the first time in three years. I must say, I did not miss the drive. And while my sister-in-law is a great cook, I’m … Continue reading
