They started getting along better when we brought in my niece's cat Shadow. Now their proximity is an indication of ambient temperature. I have to agree with Calvin, that fur must be strictly ornamental.

Friendly Felines
When it is chilly, you'd never know that Norton and Frank usually don't get along.

Stop the world, I want to get off
When I began this blog I did not intend for it to be a monthly report. However, it appears that my life is spinning about me and I've turned into a whirling dervish trying to keep up. Knitting has been my sanity break, but pictures of that knitting are non-existent. (Free time to knit, not take pix.) It also appears that I won't weave in ends until I have a pile of projects requiring that step. Well, now I have a pile of post-pumpkin projects itching to be tackled with a tapestry needle.
I planned to work on a specific financial project today but, alack and alas, it is on the OTHER laptop, which is in Virginia with my husband. And my shoes. Which are in the washing machine. And I hope my crockpot -- not in the machine, just in the van. Moving is fun enough as it is, but it becomes a real adventure when you pack everything up, then decide to stay for three more weeks. There ARE many advantages to this, decluttering being the first and foremost. Now, my husband and I thought I/we had done a good job paring it down. We loaded up a 1-ton van and a 3/4-ton van with well over two tons of stuff. We made it as far as Dallas. Praise God because our own personal bearded angel in jeans (you know who you are) was able to rescue us (again....) and we got back "home" safely.
Obviously, more stuff has to go. When we got back to the house that day and the next, we had a much more critical eye for what will make the journey. Several hundred MORE pounds have been eliminated, with the next three weeks to get rid of even more. I do find it amusing because we are moving into the biggest house we've ever lived in, and it is nearly twice the size of the house we are renting now. It will be much easier to do all the renovation in a nearly empty house. Details forthcoming, pix on the other computer with hubby, and the camera, in Virginia.
Okay, time to tackle my other big project. I have mentioned that I view caffeine as a drug and there are times that I abuse it as such. Definitely will be a user today. Starbucks French Roast. Rather stout, should keep me going. I can think of few things worse than having to study something that bores you to tears, but I'm looking forward to being DONE with it!
