March Break

Just a quick blog!

It is Friday and I am continuing to get ready/pack for our trip out East. Our plan is to leave tomorrow at approximately 6am, arriving in Toronto around 730. We are picking up a rental car at the airport and then dropping off our car at Pat's aunt's house in Mississauga. Then we will be on our way, arriving at our destination probably very late, early the next day.

It's going to be an interesting trip because we will be travelling with little Freyja. I don't think she's old enough to be on her own yet. Also, I like to keep an eye on her because she only had surgery 2 weeks ago. She's still healing. Anyway, travelling 17 hours with a 6 mos. kitten. Well...wish us luck.

Here are a couple of pictures of Freyja and her new sweater. We got it for her because we will be travelling to New Brunswick with her in the car and if we have to stop for bathroom breaks and such, we want her to be warm. She actually hates it and it is for a small dog and slightly too big for her so she can get out of it. So we'll just have to see how it goes. Maybe Mona will inherit it! Good thing they are both girls.

 

 

Here is Freyja right after her surgery. You can see her tummy scar. It's actually almost completely healed at this time but will take some time for all the tummy fur to grow back. We are really happy with our vet here. He is a real animal lover and you can tell that everytime he sees my cats. Although he is a little scared of Slick!

 

Even though she had just had surgery, it did not slow her down ONE BIT! Much to Slick's chagrin.

 

House Pics 1

Because I've been promising for ages...I finally have some house pics for you.

Here is our new bathroom. It's the only room that I could actually consider done. It needs a paint job and some pics on the wall but other than that it is complete.

The vanity is huge. It's about 6 feet long which is ENORMOUS. I also have a lot of closet space which is essential. The house is small so we are using up every available space in it, which is good.

On with the photos. I'm not labelling them but I'm pretty sure y'all can figure out what is what.

 

 

 

 

Is it the Ides of March yet?

So.

It turns out that bowling *is* fun but only if you get to watch your 2 year old nephew chase his bowling ball down the lane and throw bowling balls down other people's lanes. Then it's downright hi-larious.

Freyja is recovering well from her surgery. I'm spoiling her rotten, even going as far as to sleep with her in the spare room so she won't be lonely and/or cold. She's decided that I am a cat too and has taken to trying to groom my hair while I'm sleeping. Which...just no.

The Welcome Wagon came to our house last night bringing us all kinds of goodies. It was very exciting. 3 free toothbrushes! Just the night before I'd told Pat that I needed a new toothbrush. Oh universe. So wily! It's piles of cash that I really need. MOUNDS OF IT!

But seriously, she brought us many gift certificates! And the lady was very nice and she loved the cats and even brought treats for them so they loved her right back. And then they climbed in her basket. And she found that very amusing and then we were like, look lady it's 9pm. Time to go. I kid!

Nothing else new to report. The economy stinks. My job search continues. I had a great visit with my family but I couldn't really say any different because they ALL READ THIS!!! HAHAHAHahahahaha...ha.............ha.

*ahem*
