"Why can't that cat go in the box?"


We didn't go to church. Woke up arguing about a cat. So we didn't go. I think we still should have gone.

We are experiencing pre-empty nest syndrome. Nice that the house can be so quiet.


Weird talking to my dad yesterday, he is having regrets. "My life has gone by" mindset. He retired too early, when he left the Air Force. The only job(?) he talks about. So I am assuming his favorite. He is a very closed, shy, quiet, introverted, and angry person. That anger is able to surface now.

I don't know how he and my Mom ever married and had children, through a mediator? Kidding.

Now I feel like I have to call him every week or ...something will happen.

My husband and I like to say the name of one of the meteorologist on the Metro Weather channel. We say it like he does. "MAHHN TOYUHHH" We like him.
We also say "La Cuisine!" like the the Iron Chef America host.

My husband is talking to his mother. He usually doesn't miss a weekend calling her. I think I will listen in.
