My 2011 goal to take a kickboxing class is not going to happen, I looked into it and I found out that kickboxing is not for me. I am taking a taekwondo class though, I am on my 3rd class and so far I have learned many different kicks, the crescent kick, front kick and the round house kick. Next week I will be learning different punches. My new goal is to make it past green belt because my dad didn’t make it past green belt. I will keep you updated on my progress.
On a totally different topic. My roommate has a cat named Simon. I am not sure if I have talked about Simon before but he’s a cute orange cat. I enjoy Simon in my life, he is a good friend we take naps together. That being said Simon tends to scratch at my door in the morning if my roommate is not home because he wants to be fed. I tried many different techniques at first, I tried putting boxes along the side of my door but he would just move them. I tried spraying Febreze but it would just give me a head ach smelling it under the door. I then read online about building a mote in front of the door because cats do not like water. That night I set out four different bowls in front of my door and filled them with water. I woke up at 6:30am and there was no scratching. I went back to bed for 15 min and I woke up to scratch scratch scratch. I walk outside to see one bowl moved away from the door and no water on the ground. Simon had spent all night drinking the water out of the bowl and then was able to move it with ease. I couldn’t even be mad, he out played me.
Now Simon sleeps on the end of my bed with me when my roommate is away or if I don’t want him in my room I was able to purchase a spray from PetSmart which is a smell cats don’t like and it works like a charm.
