Crazy Cat Woman Here to say Hello!

Hi Ya All!   Cat Woman here!

I hope everyone is doing well.  Sorry it takes me so long to get back on this site.  My computer is rather sick, and probably doesn't have a long life ahead of it.  My car got sick as well, my insurance went up, so now I am not driving.  I don't mind as I have been too tired.  Doctor is giving me B12 shots each week to see if this helps.  Thanks to my mom who has been taking me to get the shots, etc..  This last weekend was so beautiful I did some yard work -- was very painful, yet my yard looks good.  I do some crafts when I feel up to it, which is something I really love to do.  I watch HGTV a lot at night, and early in the morning.  I think I am addicted to this channel.  My son Bryan is still in the Navy.  In October it will be 10 years for him.  His wife (my daughter-in-law)Michelle has a lot of physical problems now, yet is still trying to stay head of them.  I sure wish they lived closer.  Bryan will be able to transfer some where in about six months.  I hope he chooses the coast of Washington.  They are very busy, so don't get to chat very often.  My son Chris is in to baseball season right now.  He has been having a lot of trouble with his right shoulder, and a knee.  He is going to two different Orthopedic Specialists right now, and will be going to therapy soon.  Hopefully he won't have to have surgery. He is a junior in high school, and will be 18 in October.  Bryan will be 28 in September.  Chris is so busy with his youth group, church, sports, etc........  I get to see him once in a while.  I made some gifts for Christmas that I have never seen done before, and would like to make a video ("How to") someday, and have it professionally edited, and marketed.  I have so much fun doing these things.  I also applied to be on the show "Extreme Makeover Home Edition", which is on Sunday nights (8:00 Pacific Time) on ABC.  If you haven't seen this show, it is really a great show.  I would love to have all the stuff done to my house from this show, so we'll see if I get picked.  I sent my video, and application out about a week or so ago.  I am also thinking about applying to be on the "Extreme Makeover" show that has to do with helping the people themselves with surgeries, etc..  It is also a wonderful show that is very positive.  If anyone wants to apply for any of these, just go to www.abc.com and apply.  I still have 13 cats at this time, with most of them being of geriatric age.  In other words I have an old cats home (tee hee hee).  It is rather comical to try and sleep at night when I am not the only one snoring, and keeping myself awake.  Cats can snore you know -- I know  too.  Also comical to see five cats sleeping with me on my head, and every where else they find comfortable.  I guess it keeps me warm at night.  The oldest cat I have is in her 15th year, yet she still plays like a kitten at times.  Then there is Eddie, my little weiner dog.  He likes to bark at anything that moves.  He is my faithful watch dog.  I didn't hear him the other night, and he politely left a whoops-a-daisy on my floor for me to discover in the morning.  I have not had any more raccoons on my sundeck in a long time, ever since brave ole Eddie decided to attack one that was 2 - 3 times his size.  I didn't see it when I let Eddie out to do his thing one night.  He might be small, but he packs a mighty paw.  Eddie the lion hearted.  Well, I guess I should end my adventures for now.  I will try and get back to this site more often.  I will try and remember to send Bryan and Michelle this site, as I have forgotten all along.  Take care everyone, especially Lonnie, Dusty, Sara, Uncle Evan, Aunt Betty, and anyone else.  My love and prayers are with you all.
