LOL, you mean you don't do both at once? It seems if I sit any where except the
sewing machine I have a cat in my lap along with what ever work I am doing.

Oddly enough this cat and her predecessor were not lap cats. I swear
if this one departs the world I shall test out cats at the shelter for
lapability lol
