And the great spirit decided to give me a little bit more for chuckles and giggles.

I got up this a.m. and swept and mopped as I usually do. My daughter snuggled with me for a bit and then asked me to make her an omlette which I did. When she was getting the mixing bowl and fry pan she asked me why the cupboard smelled of cat pee! Sure enough, it reaked. I had to move the microwave last week as son's girlfriend's kitten was peeing in the corner where I put microwave.

So after washing her omlette pan and mixing bowl I decided to attack the problem. Called the girlfriend down but she said she had to go.
Out come all of the pots and pans, cake dishes, pie plates, bread pans, cookie sheets etc. On my floor. I was going to wash the cabinet out and then tile with shelving paper. Well, after I washed and did te shelving paper I noticed under the sink where a plumber had done a repair and we noticed a leak 2 weeks later. The entire underside of the cabinet was rotted out. For some weid reason, the guy who built my house used partical board under the sink.

So there I go with a hammer and a tire wrench beating the rotten partical board to death. I finally got it all out and removed a bunch of nails. Even the floor underneith is wet. So I have it blocked off from critters with the doors open and I am going to fit plywood under there and seal with tile. I am so exhausted! And yes my back hurts. I had to sweep up all of the chunks of partical board and throw them away. Then I proceeded to wash all of above dishes. My counter is full, the stove top is full, they are everywhere and I expect the kids who own that monster kitty will be putting dishes away later.

At least it kept me from moping and worrying about the things over which I have no control. And, my hands are way clean!! Also, I really had to take a shower when I was not going to, I was just going to wash my hair, lazy me. So it's all good. I even can see how I need to cut the plywood around the pipes. Geez, how did I get so smart?
