Well, it turns out that my wonderful cat has decided that she is the recipient of my worldly goods when I finally kick the bucket...

That's the only reason I could think that she would take a flying leap at the ladder I was climbing, lose all cat-like grace and precision, and barrel into the back of my knee instead of landing (catlike) on the ladder...which (for her sake) she had BETTER have been aiming for! This, of course, caused a moment of panic, confusion, and screaming as the ladder and I gracelessly plummeted to the floor of my hallway. Of course, said cat was (by this time) already safely back in the living room casually grooming herself as if she hadn't been the cause of my recent decent into pain.

Needless to say...well, yeah...I already said it...my ability to sit at my computer for long periods of time has been curtailed somewhat due to the back and head injuries I got from my graceless feline and the uncompromising ladder!

Sometimes gravity bites!

I will be getting to that pile of wonderful comments you have all left me shortly, as I am taking some medications right now that make me loopier than usual, and I don't want to fall asleep on the keyboard. :o Give me a day or so to recuperate, and I will let you ALL know just how wonderful I think you are for your feedback and comments. Thanks for your patience as I get through this...

...and pray for the cat! LOL!

Love and hugs,

(A very tired) Illiana
