Today’s lament was going to be titled: “Woe is me, I cannot find my cat, and I’m not sure I want to anymore.” This is because, in spite of driving me crazy trying to get into the house for the past 3-4 days, the cat decided to disappear this morning before her 10:00 vet apointment. And I decided today that there really were fleas in the house, which is a big bother. So I was almost hoping that she wouldn’t return. But she did and now I have a 3:00 appointment instead, so all is well. Kind of. Except for the fleas.


Ooooo, ick – fleas!! So sorry you are having to deal with that! We had to deal with them when living in S. California. Hate them, hate them!
No kidding – they make me feel icky just thinking about them! But it’s much easier to deal with this time – I had the same problem in the summer, around August and it was so miserable having to vacuum the whole house and then spray, and thens tay off the carpet for 2 hours or so until it dried – while I was 7 months pregnant! I have soooo much more energy this time around. And the carpets needed a good vacuuming anyway.
