    I just can’t with your cats 😍 Chai is such a cuddle bug! I love how Star came to see you too, since her favourite went out to play golf 😂 I lost my cat just before Christmas, he was 24! He was my child and I miss him so much still 💔 seeing your babies makes my day though 💜
    I got rid of my gnats because of your dunks advice, I thank you every time I water my plants 😂

    In an effort to get my chores done i played this video for motivation and it was going fairly well until the purrs started. Stopped what i was doing and stood here smiling like a dope at my phone 😸 But when you said your husband would be home soon and would be ready to go eat, so you do another plant project is hilarious and relateable 😂😂

    I hope your dinner was enjoyable. I also hope that your husband played well in his golf round so he could regale everyone in your dinner party with some good natured golf boasting like all golfers do , believe me I know. “You should have seen the 7 iron I hit on the twelfth hole, it was spectacular!” Also, I purchased the same watering can that you are using and I like it a lot. The long narrow spout is ideal for precision watering. Thanks for the video.
