    Morning Joan!
    I briefly took piano lessons as a child. And ballet. Dance I kept up with, piano lessons not. Never got very far with them. Remember exam where examiner smacked me across knuckes with ruler for every error. Not fun! Now some peeps take piano lessons as adults, but I’d need a piano, and don’t think that I’m going to “find” one on one of my street find excursions. 😉

    Morning Joan, not so much really bored, head is beating me up with this stupid migraine and just looking for something to get my mind off of it but it’s getting beyond even that right now, blah….hope that your day goes well today…

    Oh Deb sorry about the migraine ! Sending soothing vibes your way.. For me an ice pack on the forhead sometimes eases the pain..

    Hey Joan 🙂 you know you have me an idea cause you said your bringing in Mac’s blankie .. Why don’t you feed comet & Leela with the blanket beside them.. You know that positive smell association trick .. Especially now that you have something with mac’s smell on it.. Maybe do the same for Mac too bring out something that smells of Leela and comet ..

    KJ I think all teething kittens attempt to find the corners of everything! It started with the side cheek/gum rub (scent marking) and as soon as they know they can actually grab a hold of it the biting starts 🙂 seriously I have had to clear the floor of all debris!

    Speaking if Noodle… His balance is starting to be effected by the loss of his front leg … He’s falling a lot more now .. I realized as he gets bigger, longer, taller he no longer has a low center of gravity and the taller he gets the less stable he becomes.. Now he’s still more stable than Buttons ever was but just have to watch him with high area.. He hasn’t managed to jump in counter tops yet .. When he does make an attempt he falls flat on his bum .. I think he’s slowly learning his limitations and realizing he has to have several levels to jump on to reach a certain surface..

    Hey, you never know what you’ll find, KJ! I think it was George Carlin who talked of phrases you don’t hear, such as “Hand me that piano.”
    Oooh Deb, a migraine – I can see how you would want to try to get your mind off that. Try to keep up the smiles.

    Good idea Buttons. I was hoping that I was the common scent collection. But I’ll leave something of mine for Leela to sleep on, then Comet, then Mac, then reverse the order and just keep doing it. Can’t hurt!

    No deffinately can’t hurt Joan … If comet see & receives nothing but good things around Mac’s smell ( and visa versa) then it could really speed up the possibility of a friendship developing between the two and possibly a foot in the door for Mac

    I guess Noodle has to learn how to navigate as his body grows…

    But Dorry’s no longer a kitten – he’s four years old!!! Not doing him any harm, and as mentioned at least he’s not biting me!

    ….. I am beating my head against the wall right now ….. closing?!?? …. NO! …. all day and they couldn’t get the figures to the title company….. seriously??!!! …. so much for the large lender… could care less that my Buyers have all their belongings sitting on a moving van, costing $$$ each day they don’t close …. approval/clear to close – all happened Friday …. ALL they had to do today was put their figures on paper …. a first grader could have done it …. simple math …… yyyyyyyyyyyyyiiiiiiiiiiiiikkkkkkkkkkkkkkeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssss!

    Hi all! Been absent for most of the day, trying to catch up on threads. Love the theme, I took piano lessons for about 6 years. I have a piano too, but never play the darned thing, and it is dreadfully out of tune! Maybe if I would pay to have it tuned, it would be worth playing, LOL! I will check in later as now it’s time to feed the Mr. and me not knowing what the heck it’s gonna be….maybe a salad with fresh tomatoes and with some steak on the side..

    ….. aarrrggghhhh!!!!… sadly, it’s so much of what’s wrong with our country’s financial/housing mess right now! …. the large lenders are SO huge, they can’t do anything timely, efficiently, or cost effective …. they lag/delay/waste time/resources, and our tax paying money! ………. *steps off soapbox*

    …. I’ll take a swipe from the fountain now ….. make it a double 🙂

    …. On a fluffier note – Dau made it to NYC and she and Son are preparing to go to a fancy dinner tonite for his job …. $1000/plate fundraiser (of course, they are guests) …. she is really excited and bought a beautiful new dress/shoes/accessories to wear …. can’t wait to get the Viber pics 🙂
