AMAZING Discovery

If I use the brush from my dustpan to "sweep" my carpet, the cat hair comes RIGHT off.

Formerly I would spend 25 minutes with the cat brush painstakingly pulling it all out. This is revolutionary.

Why can't I ever discover time-savers like this for schoolwork?

"Literally, a grapefruit."

Maeve is coming to visit this weekend!

I am so excited. I haven't seen her in a year and a half, so this is well overdue. Hurray! I see tasty food, shopping trips, wine and girl talk in my near future...
