Family Meeting Night

Some time ago, Momoko instituted family meeting night. This is some time we set aside each week for each cat to bring up family issues they want to address. At first Little Kat said these meetings were no fun. We were bringing up problems all the time.

Tonight I was happy to see that Momoko let Kit Kat run the meeting. Normally Momoko calls the meeting to order and runs the thing. The other nice thing about tonight was that Little Kat was able to vocalize some ways the family was changing that he did not like. Most of his issues were addressed. And some actions were assigned to family members. That's how business is done.

We are getting better at boxing in the time spent at family meeting night. Normally Little Kat is the time keeper. He sets a physical timer that rings when the time runs out. This helps us make sure we don't spend all night in a family meeting. It seems family meeting night is turning out almost as good as family game night. Maybe I will share some fun from those nights in a future post.

Shopping Plans

Yesterday Momoko was going to go grocery shopping. However she stayed up late the night before doing homework. Then she got caught up late at work. The result was that Momoko spent the evening sleeping on the couch.

So for today we had some dinner ingredients. But that's it. And Momoko has class tonight. Do you know what that means? Time for me and Kit Kat to go grocery shopping. I decided to take the old pick up truck. That's easier to load groceries into the back. We went to Weis Markets. That's the store which is close to our old house.

Kit Kat and I were all business at the grocery store. She had a list and we stuck to it. Groceries are really expensive. We still shelled out some bucks for the goods. But now we are ready to cook dinner all week.
