Tonight's picture was taken on Halloween of 2008. We were on our way to the hospital's Halloween party. Mattie wanted me to dress up too, so the easiest thing for me to be was a black cat. I remember this moment in time like it were yesterday. Another thing I remember so distinctly was the amount of clutter we accumulated during Mattie's cancer journey. It was just too much to keep up with, but you would be surprised how things can pile up after 14 months of neglect. It was so overwhelming after Mattie died that I left the piles just as they were for many years.
Quote of the day: Today's coronavirus update from Johns Hopkins.
- Number of people diagnosed with the virus: 46,140,509
- Number of people who died from the virus: 748,173
Part of the problem is its dimensions. It is hard to find a cat litter pan that fits the space. So the pan is smaller than the box. Needless to say, cat urine goes over the sides, all over the interior of the box, and even worse it flows out of the box onto the floor. Anyone who knows anything about cats knows that cat urine is vile. It is hard to clean up and the smell is sickening. I have been cleaning it for days. I had just about enough of this, so I cleaned it and advertised it for FREE on Next Door. Someone is taking it off my hands tomorrow. I hope she has better luck with it. So I am back to the less visually appealing cat litter box, but at least it contains what it is supposed to. I have little time to waste, and cleaning up cat urine truly has made this week over the top and it is only Tuesday.
