There are few things I love more than my lil fuzzbutts- i.e. my cats. There isn’t anything like the feeling of coming home after a long day of work and seeing one or more of my babies running down the hall to see me. Or the contentment of having a purring kitty in my lap. The other night Pat and… Read more »
Today is celebrated every day here at Casa Palmer- it’s adopt a shelter pet day! While Lilly came from the mean streets of Hampton, both our other cats came to us via a shelter.

Social media is responsible for a lot of bad things, but it has done some good things too. It allows us to stay in contact with people we used to live close to and/ or used to work… Read more »
We are a couple days away from Valentine’s Day. Since it’s on a weekday there will be a steady stream of florist vans pulling up to workplaces all across the nation. Of course everyone looks to see who’s getting the largest bouquet. And I can already tell you it won’t be me. But I’m not sad about that. My husband… Read more »

She even used to name her SOB of the year! Winners included Dolly Pardon and Helen Mirren. Rare air indeed. So today all women should aspire to… Read more »
First of all, I want to make it VERY clear that I love Oreo with all my heart. Really I do. I fell in love with him approximately 0.5 seconds after laying eyes on him. Promise. But. He is a lot. I mean A LOT A LOT. In 6 months he has not yet figured out that Boots does not… Read more »
If you are reading this you know I’m a huge Miami Dolphins fan.
