poor cat-or poor mom??

I need to take a breather. I am having a moment. I almost threw a squash at my cat. Yes, a squash. But don't worry, it is a very little squash, not at all a big one. I am trying to catch up on my bible studies ( I am doing 2 very time consuming ones and I haven't been good at managing my time) anyways...It always happens, at least to me anyway, that as soon as I sit down, pray, feel good about what I am about to embark on, and them bam, the distractions pour down on me. The cat meows, again and again then starts to yowwwl-preston in the mean time who is supposed to be sleeping hears the cat and starts to cry. My dilemma, if I let the cat outside, which is probably why he is meowing my neighbors huge German Shepard will bark non stop, then the other neighbors dog will bark and lo and behold a chain reaction will have been set off. Have I ever mentioned that we are completely surrounded my dogs-both sides and front and back. I am not a dog person. I like them just fine, but I don't want one. Anyway-now my warm feelings are completely gone and I am looking at my pretty little platter that I bought yesterday and my squash that are sitting in it and a feeling comes over me-and the cat continues to yowwwwwl. Hence the need for this breather.


Well, I don't think a nap is in Prestons future-maybe a walk to starbucks is what we need. It wouldn't hurt to breath in some of that fresh fall air and get some exercise. Sounds like a plan.

No, I didn't throw the squash at the cat.
