To Yahweh_is_gracious, to your avatar cat I would ask, "Do you mind if I ask you a question?"
Does he have an enemy---like grumpy dog??
That is no mistake. lolDo not taunt Grumpy Cat. Grumpy Cat will either mistake your leg as a scratching post or will bring you a dead mouse in the middle of the night.
I consider doing chores is like liver. It's good for me, but I make sure I get chocolate for doing it to take the taste out of my mouth. (I never do something I don't like unless I reward myself. Not usually chocolate -- I'd be so fat and sick -- but some little fun thing to do if I get-er-done.)Many people don't like doing household chores, I for one love cooking, cleaning, laundry, raking leaves, gardening, and so much more. My point is don't look at doing these things as what you must do, but rather what you get to do. It's a privilege and a gift to do these things. Once you change your views on these trivial tasks the more joy you will find in life.
