Ever since my neighbors talked me into taking this little lost kitten two or three years ago and giving it a home, I’ve been in a constant, bitter battle with CAT HAIR. I don’t care how cute my kitty is, how smart she is, or how sweet she is. She sheds like nothing [...]

Now I realize that I just posted about what all us “old folks” did before the almighty cell phone. And I even laughed at these “youngsters” who don’t have a clue what it’s like to be “unplugged”.
