Nope, we're not talking about hairballs or anything like that...

Mom's been getting rid of a LOT of stuff, like a couple of boxes full of t-shirts, sweatshirts, jeans, etc. that had been sitting unopened since she moved to our current place four years ago. Figured she wouldn't miss them, so she took 'em to a homeless shelter to let others have a chance to use the clothing.

And once the stuff was dropped off, she had boxes left... lots and LOTS of cardboard boxes. Talk about super-fun-fort time!

But alas, fun time is over. She got rid of the boxes too--something about recycling?? There's not nearly as many fun hiding places anymore... *sigh*

The little kitty below knows just how I feel:
