As you may have noticed, we’re a wee bit obsessed with the white kitten overlord around here. As proved by my constructing an idol this past week:
Many thanks to K & J Dolls for the pattern and to Glass Eyes Online for the official Hello Kitty! eyes and noses.
The honeymoon is definitely over between me and my new “healthy lifestyle.” During the first six months and 30 pounds and four pants sizes we got along great but now the bickering has started.

The cuddly Doctor is going to Alana over the Fourth of July weekend and I will be so sad to see him go. I think I’ll [...]
I got a wake up call right after the first of the year.
I went to the doctor for a sinus infection and my blood pressure was high. So high in fact, that my nurse practitioner was afraid I would have a stroke. She ripped open a sample box of BP meds and stood and [...]
As you can tell, the fever today isn’t slowing her down much.
