Hello fellow bloggers! I have enabled comment moderation on my blog because of inappropriate and off the wall comments left by a couple of thoughtless/unscrupulous bloggers. So, your comments will be monitored from now on. Now I just have to write something! :) Thanks for your patience.

Where I work there is always a lot of drama. I am a Judicial Clerk aka Support Staff. Working with troubled teens/preteens their parents and probation officers this occurs on a daily basis. Somehow, from day one, the PO's knew that I was/am "safe" to talk to and not a day goes by when at least one of them is in my office(or calls me to their office) confiding in me about their personal and/or professional lives. Yesterday was no exception. One of the POs ran into my office and said "YOU have to go down to _____ office, she is sobbing". I went. I knew what had happened before I got to her office because she has shared much with me. Anyway, it was a reminder of what I believe is God's purpose for giving me this job...

Actually its a new version of an old trick! For the past several mornings I have woken up lying sideways on my bed in a fetal position, while my cat is stretched out on the bottom half of the bed. When this happens and how she gets me to move like that is a mystery to me. In the old version of the trick I would wake up smashed against the wall while she would be contentedly snoring (yes she does snore!) on the rest of the bed. So... I am re posting a video in Marmalade's honor. Enjoy!!




This cat actually looks like Marmalade!

Just a short post to say:

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
