I'm a cat lover but....

My daughter forwarded this to me and I thought it was funny. I wanted to share it with some friends, but I figured maybe my blog would solve the problem of clogging everyone's email box.

How To Clean Your Toilet - The Fun Way

Instructions on how to clean your toilet
1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo tothe water in the bowl.
2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
3. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close bothlids. You may need to stand on the lid.
4. The cat will self agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this.
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power-wash"and rinse".
6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that thereare no people between the bathroom and the front door.
7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom,and run outside where he will dry himself off.
9. Both the commode and the cat will be sparkling clean.

Sincerely,

Things of beauty (or at least I think they are)

Soon after I moved offices at PPC I realized that I had a large blank wall to play with. Well I would have a large blank wall once I took the book shelves apart.

In 1998 I made a quilt for my husband's office. When he changed jobs it didn't fit into his new office, and it sat in the closet, folded and unseen for several years. It is now hanging in my office -- temporarily -- until he gets one big enough again.

I love quilting. I find it relaxing and challenging at the same time. It brings out the small creative streak that I have, and yet requires precision and attention to detail thus feeding my messy side and my anal retentive side at the same time. I have been working on a quilt for a friend's daughter for some time now, and it is getting close to finished. I wanted to post a picture here to share it with the world. This is not nearly as pretty on the web as the pic on my computer, but......
