Q: So what's the difference between Mike Tyson and Morgan Le Fay, our kitten?

A: Morgan will lick your ear first before she chomps down.

Kitten now sleeps with us on top of the bed, which is good, but the chomp of ears and nose is not the optimum way to wake up after a sound sleep. I've been pushing her away because even though its a kitten phase, its not a habit she should take with her as an adult. After thinking about the problem, two other things are working:

1. Rub a bit of orange peel on my nose and ears before I go to sleep. I like the orange-y smell, but kitty hates it.

2. Keep my hands away from my face as I sleep. Kitten likes to play scary hand, but if you play scary hand in front of your face, your ears and nose are just finger 11, 12, 13.

So far that's been working.

Treated myself by buying 18 oz of blueberries for $5.98.

Sister sent me news that the state of Wisconsin incentive check for installing solar has come: $5324. Along with that news came a picture of the newly installed kitchen floor of the farmette...

also with sister's dogs, and a red-orange accent wall leading to the living room.

    I love kittens and wish they would stay forever playful. Mine keeps me in stitches... from laughing, not from wounds ;-)

    I like the flooring. I'd paint out the cabinets white and seal them with some kind of waterproof varnish. Looks like some faithful friends pacing the floor there.

    I like the with that little splash of red.

    Hee hee, aren't kittens fun? My sister had one who would poke (i.e. punch) her in the eye when she wanted to plat and sis was sleeping.

    Kittens are great! If our cat sees anypart of your hand while sleeping he will put his head near the hand in such a position to be petted. It is hilarious!

    My cat Monkey would sometimes gently bite my nose in the morning when he thought I should be getting up to feed him. Smile Cats are funny.
