Kitty Castle

I have access to free boxes at work so Paul and I thought it would be fun to get the cat a couple. Well, it turns out she LOVES boxes!

She also loves to be wrapped up in blankets...

So, we got a couple big boxes and built her a 3-story, kitty castle. She loves it!! We cut holes in the back of the first level so she can hop up to the second floor. Then there is a hole in front for her to get to the roof where her bed is located.

She spends many-a-minutes sitting on the front porch, just watching time pass by.

Life is sooooo good for this furry feline.

Blood!!

Today at the hospital LifeBlood was taking donations of blood from staff and anyone else who wanted to donate. I haven't ever donated blood before. I tried once before many years ago, but something went wrong and they wouldn't let me. Also, it doesn't help that I really really dislike being poked with a needle. I don't mind poking other people with needles though.

So I decided I'd donate. Me and a couple of my friends went down after work. They do a quick physical on you to make sure you are stable and healthy enough to give blood, and then you sit in a chair and BAM - you're squeezing a ball and blood is pouring out of you into a bag.

In our area they have plenty of O+, A+, and B+ blood, but there is a critical shortage of O-. Regardless of your blood type, or if you don't even know your blood type, it's a good idea to donate!

Working in surgery, I've seen how blood can help first hand. It really does mean the difference between life and death for some people. It is so important to help your community... wherever you live. Someday your children, parents, brothers, sisters, grandparents and friends may depend on your local blood supply to save thier life.

So go donate! If not to help others, to get a free cookie and some juice!!

We did it!! We finally decided on a price for THEE home and just a few hours ago, Paul and I signed the contract to buy it, our very first home. I am so excited!!!!! I love this house! We set the closing date for December because that is when our lease on our apartment is up, the builder was fine with that. We got such a great deal on the house too. This time, since it's gonna be ours, I decided to take the camera out and get some pictures. Just click on the picture to the right and you can view more. By the way, the furniture in the house is not ours.

After our triumphant business dealings, we went out to Wendy's to celebrate... being this is all we can afford now.
