Odds and ends part three I think

I do odds and ends because I’ll have a bunch of short things I want to write about but none of them would ever grow up to a full blog entry. Today is an odds and ends day.

First, my husband has been in Kansas City this week. I am SO JEALOUS! He told me last night it was very weird to be there without me being there and no longer owning a home there. I’m sure he felt almost displaced.

Second, I met the Cat Nanny. She is a South End institution—about eight years ago after she could no longer work due to health issues, she began sitting for kitties whose owners were out of town. I knew she would be great with my kitties when she just plopped right down on the floor and began loving all three of them. The boys are pretty indiscriminate, but Chloe is a different story. Guess who sought out the Cat Nanny for lots of petting? So that right there sealed things for me.

Today is my mother’s birthday. When my brother and I were little, she would fix us whatever dinner we wanted on our birthdays. My brother always picked tacos (deep fried), with Orange Crush and if I recall correctly, chocolate cake. I always had short ribs and angel food cake with no icing or anything on it. So today, Mom, I’ll cook you a virtual birthday dinner—just let me know what you want.
