Things I've Learned This Week

* A 14-oz. CAN of sweetened condensed milk is not the same as 14 ounces OF sweetened condensed milk

*  Just because you've made it successfully several times, it doesn't mean that you can't royally screw up fudge--especially if one adds 14 ounces OF sweetened condensed milk

*  I have turned into my grandmother.  My response to any one in trouble is to automatically want to feed them.

*  I am not required to allow someone in my life whom I find personally offensive

*  Even if it would speed things up quite a bit, the cats probably aren't going to go for the idea of being vacuumed during shedding season.

*  There have always been--and will always be--people with a need to hate another group of people.  And it will always be wrong

*  Do not be seduced by a sunny day into going somewhere without a coat.  It's March.  It can still be freakin' cold.

*  A friend says, "let me know if there's anything I can do."  A good friend just jumps in and does it.

Have you discovered the 'furminator' comb? It accelerates the shedding process tremendously, and if you comb twice a day during the height of shedding season, can put a serious dent in the amount of hair that winds up on the furniture as opposed to being combed out and dumped in the trash.
