    I paid somebody else to make me a cup of coffee this morning, because I didn't want to make one myself. That's pretty awesome, not as a thing to do, but as something to be able to do.

    My cat has a robot that shoots lasers. It moves a red dot around the floor and drives kitty nuts. There are families in the world that can't afford to put enough food on the table, and my cat owns a robot for entertainment.

    Of course, the fact that I have no right to complain doesn't mean I won't...

    My cats would be blessed and even appreciate a robot with shooting lasers.. I have a hand held laser and they do not appreciate it and the fact my arms want to fall when playing "laser" with them.

    So I am complaining that I do not have a cat robot with lasers..

    My biggest problem every morning is whether to choose a bowtie or a necktie ;)

    I figured your biggest problem would be whether or not to post stuff like this B)

    We have a FroliCat. Looks like a bowling pin. The laser shoots straight up and a pair of motors turn a mirror to move the dot around the floor and sometimes make it climb a wall.

    The down side is it turns itself off after 15 minutes. I'd turn it on every morning on the way to work if I could.

    The sun rose and set on Wednesday, looks like it's going to happen again today.

    I bought this and it came in last night... This thing is a trip...

    Its still a little new and one is already overly spastic trying to keep up with the laser and I am getting quite entertained and my other one is still quite amazed at the the sound (she is sort of not normal...LOL.. but she will catch on fairly quickly)..

    I think I bought this for me and not them... LOL

    I'm very blessed! I have a great hubby who still has a job, my kids haven't asked me for money since Sunday....my granddaughter is almost over her cold, and it's Girls Day today! My sisters and I are going to a Salt Cave, followed up by chocolate fondue at a Chocolaterie! (is that a word?)

    Yummy chocolate fondue sounds fun

    Life could always be worse. If you're able to wake up in your own bed (or someone else's of your choosing) and you are able to eat and drink and do what you want then life if pretty darn good.

    Never think of what you have compared to others and feel better.....I'm happy I woke up.

    I think the point of it is tgat we can often focus on our problems and magnify them to where they are really making us unhappy. But when you realize how blessed you are, it puts those problems in perspective.

    But apparently we need a measuring stick to know if we are blessed or not.

    Life isn't always beautiful but it is better than the alternative.

    I see where you are coming from, but that was not the intent of the post.

    Some people are in pain right now, and need a little light in their lives, something to make them see the good present in their lives. Please don't dim that.
