    About Me

    I'm a mom of two, I've lived a life where I feel like a cat, I've gone through 7 of my 9 lives I think. Rough stuff. While I've been luckier than so so many I've also had a very difficult time again and again, etc. I was away from Daily Strength for a while, and realized just recently again that I could use all the support I can get as I'm still battling to regain my Self , find my Self and overcome the demons of the past.

    Interests

    cats, coffee, astrology, friends, cooking, my kids, music, crafts, art, computers, photography, communication

      From catslave October 12, 2007

      I came here through a friend of a friend with a drive by purring just for you! For the next minute my 25 cats will purr in unison (Tilly, get out of the food bowls!), just for you! (Hoover, get out of the kitchen!) This will happen momentarily (Magic stop hitting Tabitha!). Any time now (Bob get out of the LITTERBOX!). Ok, we may have to do this tomorrow (as a green cloud engulfs the computer) because Bob just went to the litterbox and no one wants to be around when that happens...ummm..so...Happy Day! (as massive coughing and choking ensues)
