We got a cat yesterday. It was a long time coming since the kids have asked for a while but I wasn’t ready yet. Five years ago this Canada Day I had to have my cat Iza put down. I got her when I was in college and she was the first pet I had that was actually mine and not my parents. She was my companion for my whole adult life up until that point and it broke my heart. It wasn’t until recently that I felt ready to get another one.

This guy we got out of a fluke. Tom’s friend was supposed to get him but he ended up with another cat and felt guilty so he asked Tom if he was interested and he said yes. Our new guy is an expat from Detroit. He is black with golden eyes, and is a polydactyl which makes him look like he is wearing mittens. We named him after one of my favourite literary characters of all time, Severus.

So this week was HOT. Saturday was so gross that I wanted to hide indoors but couldn’t due to having to take the kids to their classes. I’m not an avid swimmer but I think this summer we will be getting a lot of use out of our buildings pool if it is going to be hot like this. It’s indoors thankfully because both my kids don’t deal well in extreme heat and sun. I, myself have only had one sunburn my entire life and it was minor and contained to my cleavage area (wearing a v-neck) because I tend to avoid the sun like the plague.  Which I guess will be good in the long run. Hopefully.

Is it mean that I want to put a little wizard hat on Severus? (Joking….kind of)

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, “fuck. I need to whiten my teeth.”? You have? Good, I’m glad I am not the only one (this is a kind of one-sided conversation to make me feel better). I’m feeling like I need to do that right now or as soon as possible so if you have an over the counter teeth whitening product that works well for you and doesn’t leave your teeth sensitive let me know what it is in the comments below because I am searching. I used to use one and had sparkling white teeth but after a while my teeth would ache so I have to give it a break for a while and use Sensodyne toothpaste to help it. The is a result of eating a lot of lemons when I was little. My parents would always go to this fish and chip truck and while I hated fish I would always suck on the lemons that came with it. One day I was drinking cold water and yelled in pain and my mom took me to the dentist thinking I had a cavity. He said that the lemons ate my enamel and I was to avoid that when possible in the future. From that point on my teeth were sensitive to hot and cold so I generally have to be careful, but would love to brighten them up again without dropping a fortune.

And that is my Public Service Announcement for the day of what may happen to you if you eat too many lemons 😉
