Monday Morning

So, for this charming Monday morning, what to blog about today? There's a new article on my content site which you can check out if you are interested in doing some woodworking. This article is geared toward beginners. It should show up on my RSS feed (to the right of this page) or you can locate it right on my content page at http://www.lynnc.info.

Over the weekend I took my life in my hands. I feel that once a person is over 40, it's time to consider the things that you haven't yet done in life. Consider some of those dangerous thing that give you a thrill and make your heart race! I had a friend who went bungee jumping for one birthday and skydiving for another. Personally, those particular thrills are too mundane for me. I pushed the envelope. I bathed a cat.

If you've never bathed a cat, then perhaps you don't get what the big deal is. If that is the case, I encourage you to go outside right now and find one. Look in the alleys or in your neighbor's backyard. Preferably, look for a dirty cat so you'll be doing a public service as well as increasing your endorphins through this extreme sport. Try to find a cat that looks pretty wary (which shouldn't be hard) since you surely want to get the most out of this experience. Then, take it in and get ready to bathe it. You want to make this as nice for the cat as possible, so run some pleasantly warm bathwater and use a gentle soap that is designed just for cats. (Don't try that human baby no-tears stuff either - they hate that.) Get some antibiotic cream ready for yourself and make sure you are up to date on all your shots. Then, just jump right in and bathe the cat. I don't need to explain more - you'll see for yourself.

Happy Monday!
