Hodge Podge

All in all, this 3 day weekend was really no different than any other weekend. Partly because Dave still had to work, but mainly because I have every Monday off, so I get a 3 day weekend every week. Saturday I managed to get every last piece of laundry done. I got most, if not all, my chores done on Saturday so the rest of the weekend was left to just chill.

The little peeing culprit is back again. During my purposeful trip to the IKEA store last Thursday, I picked up a 3 bin laundry organizer so that there would be no clothes on the floor. As I’m doing laundry, I keep a small basket nearby to toss underwear and socks in as I’m folding clothes from the dryer. I don’t always get to the sock and underwear basket and it’s often there on the laundry area floor. Well, yesterday morning, I realized that I had no dress socks for work in my drawer, and knew I had some clean ones in the basket. As I looked in the basket for a pair of dress socks, I notice an area of items that were damp. I took a whiff.. and sure enough CAT PEE!!!!!!!!! This is pissing me off (no punn intended). This time she actually jumped inside the laundry basket to pee on the clothes. I’ve kept the litter box clean and up until yesterday morning, there had been no more incidents since I last mentioned it here. I know it’s the little one, Gracie, our newest kitty. I’ll probably call our vet tomorrow and see if there is anything I can do. She doesn’t do it all the time, and like I said before, it’s only pee. But it’s got to stop!!

My husband got a raise and promotion this past week. One that’s been in the works since the beginning of the year. The raise goes retroactive to March 1st. Dave says we can go shopping for fall clothes with the retro check. Looking forward to that. But more importantly, I’m glad Dave has been recognized and compensated for all the work he’s done. He’s taken on a heavy load of responsibility since his boss died last year. I used to work in the same industry, so I know how cheap these companies can be. I’m proud of him, though.. nonetheless.

  • OMG – our youngest cat pees in the laundry basket too! But only if it’s empty – he has yet to do it on my clothes. I think he likes the nice clean smell. 🙂

    Congrats to your hubby on the promotion – how nice to get the raise retroactive!
