How To Get It All Done

I have figured out how to get everything done. Stop sleeping and stop eating.

If I didn't have to take time out to do either of those things, I might, just maybe, be able to keep up.

Tailless is eating well, and cries every time she is put down. It really is not good for kittens to be alone. She also doesn't like to be in my shirt, as she has her eyes open and wants to be looking around, as she should. So, we pass her around and take turns doing everything one handed. It can get kind of complicated.

Today is the last teaching co-op of the semester. I am planning a revue, and looking forward to next week's performance day. We get to see the art and photography and other displays, and see what the drama, piano, violin, and film making classes have been up to all semester.

In honor of national humor month:

  1. For a minute there, I thought you were teaching the kitties to do drama, piano, and violin. (Actually, I think the first of those come naturally to kittens ;)

  2. Yes, the cats are drama queens.

    If I could teach them to accompany themselves, I wouldn't have to be a janitor any more.
