On the soap living at your place: He'd be odd about it? Besos (woman I am dating) left a tooth brush at my place. Seemingly accidentally, but I'm not sure. I think I froze in my tracks when I saw it still in the bathroom after she'd left. I got over it quickly. I figured...hell, if she's here, I'd like her teeth to be clean. ;) Re: litterbox. I'm allergic to cats so I have no experience with them at all. However, my dog, Little Filthy, is box trained. He goes on pads, however, not litter - and I don't think his er...by products are anything like that of a cat's. If anything, the box smells a little like a cornchip. I think it's easier to clean than a litterbox, too. But I do keep one of those air freshner's a good 10 feet above the area by his box and it shoots out a blast of some scent every 15 minutes or so and that helps a lot. I think it's lysol odor-reducing something or other. Starting over is great. Especially if you, too, can do it without any pre-conceived notions about even yourself. Hope you are well, -R. <strong><em>Heh, oh yes he would. First of all, he doesn't stay over. But second, he sees it as the first step (however small) to moving in. So it was a big weird thing.

On the soap living at your place: He’d be odd about it? Besos (woman I am dating) left a tooth brush at my place. Seemingly accidentally, but I’m not sure. I think I froze in my tracks when I saw it still in the bathroom after she’d left. I got over it quickly. I figured…hell, if she’s here, I’d like her teeth to be clean. ;)

Heh, oh yes he would. First of all, he doesn’t stay over. But second, he sees it as the first step (however small) to moving in. So it was a big weird thing. I know, I know…. but seriously, not lying.

It's such a refreshing feeling. Regarding the cat litter, have you ever heard of Scentsy? I buy the Car Candle and hang it above the litter box. It works great for me. www.scentsy.com Good Luck! <strong><em>Never tried that, will have to look into it.</strong></em> I love starting over. It’s such a refreshing feeling.

I've done it often - mostly for the right reasons (FOR something, rather that running away from something) - and I've pretty much never been sorry. Each step taken takes us to our final destination. (Wow, I really didn't mean for that to sound as cheesy as it does.) I'm actually trying to get my Mr. Big to move away right now - not because I want to get rid of him, but because his life has been shit and he needs a fresh start. Not to say I'm encouraging him running away - I think he needs to find a good reason to go. <strong><em>You are not the first to make the distinction between running *from* and running *to* something. I'm afraid I may be doing a little of both though.</strong></em> I am a huge fan of starting over.

I've always had cats, and the cat litter smell is honestly one of the most disgusting smells out there to me. I've found that the best way to avoid having your entire home reek of cat piss is to keep the litterbox in the bathroom or somewhere else that's not used very often or for long periods of time. Scoop it every day, and replace all the litter in the box at least once a week. If you have more than one cat, do this wayyyy more often. It sounds like a bit of work, but it should help. That room might have a hint of smell, but your entire place shouldn't. And Mondays = scatterbrainedness for everyone, so don't apologize :) <strong><em>I swear on all that's holy, I do all of that. I also spray the area with Lysol one or twice a day and have an automatic Lysol air freshener up there. (Which is funny because it actually fires a tiny aerosol can every 18 minutes and the noise cracks me up. Good thing I live alone, I guess.)</strong></em> De-lurking to give you a suggestion… I’ve always had cats, and the cat litter smell is honestly one of the most disgusting smells out there to me.
