Poison Lilies!?


Did you know that lilies are poisonous to cats? Well, I didn't until Brenda from http://brendayoungerman.blogspot.com/ told me last Saturday (thanks Brenda!) I read from the picture source below that a ingestion of the leaf, petal, or, pollen stems can lead your cat into acute renal failure which will eventually end it's life. Oh no..... beware of lilies! Not good for your cats!

    Actually I did know that, but it's always good to be reminded to be wary. Stunning photo by the way!

    I'll have to remember this if we ever get a cat; very interesting news; glad Brenda pointed that out to you. I did learn this past week that grapes aren't good for dogs, they can go into kidney failure if they eat grapes. Thankfully the one time I tried to give Koda a grape he turned up his nose at it.

    My Dad told me this ages ago but I had forgotten. Thanks for sharing this important reminder. I will tweet it to my friends as well.

    You just never know, with cats, dogs or little children...so I try to not have them around where they could do a no no!

    I actually have a small room where I have plants that I don't want any kitty or dog to chew on.....and the door is always closed to them, unless I'm in there!

    Thank you for sharing that, Joseph. Luckily, I don't bring any plants or flowers in the house (they always hate me and die anyway) and my cats never go outside. It's a good thing to know though. Especially if someone ever has lilies delivered as a gift.

      I don't think they hate you, they probably just need to be kept outside where it's warmer.

      Yup it is! : )

Toy Cars And a New Computer!

Image
Look at all of my toy cars! I was just organizing them before I put them into a different box, but I had to move them a little early to make some roof for my new computer! So back into the box they went! I've always wanted to arrange my toy cars like this since I was a kid, when I would see them arranged like this in toy car collector magazines and books, I thought it looked pretty cool. Anyway I had to get a new computer because my laptop's screen finally went out and it was becoming slow. It would sometimes take couple of minutes to load a webpage, so I knew I had to get a new computer. I got a Lenovo from Microcenter. It's refurbished, but it looks and works like new. Microcenter also gives you a keyboard and mouse, but it doesn't come with a monitor unless you want one, but it will cost you  a little extra. The whole computer with keyboard and mouse cost a hundred dollars with thirty dollar shipping, very cheap and works better than my laptop.  The rea...

White Lies

She smiled through her white lies as she wandered from table to table. Being a waitress was not one of her funnest jobs and she didn't feel like explaining the menu to every single person. "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?" "They are all good!" she would say with a wearied smile. She didn't think that the food was all that good though, except for maybe the hamburger, but even that wasn't all that great either and she wanted to tell the truth, but it was her only job and she didn't want to lose it. Wandering and wandering through the tables day in and day out. Until one day she collapsed and it happened, the pasta fell all over the man in the suits shirt. "I ordered the food to eat it, not wear it!" Said the man in the suit with a sarcastic tone to the waitress. The waitress looked at the man in horror. "I'll..I'll...clean it up" she ...
