RN, we arrived at the new house! we LIVE here now!! outdoor kitty was confined to the motorhome bathroom with a disposable litter box, his favorite pillow and food and water. i stopped about halfway here to use the bathroom...and uh, just opened the door, and said, 'oh shit!' and went into denny's to use their bathroom! pumpkin had flipped and shredded the disposable litter box and there was litter on the entire bathroom floor! once we got here, we put him in dd's room. he is purring and eating and drinking water...but it doesn't look like he's using the litter box we put in for him. i haven't smelled or seen any wet spots on the rug and haven't discovered any tootsie rolls... he seems to like being an indoor cat in his advanced 12 years. he and little cat, bootsie, touch noses and don't hiss or anything. pumpkin has not ventured out of the bedroom, but i think he'll be okay. me, i'm totally exhausted from the drive (when it's windy, driving a motorhome is like sailing a ship!), and we have unpacked til i'm ready to scream and no place to put half the stuff! but i am happy to be here and we'll sort through it a dozen boxes at a time. my bedroom is almost cleared of boxes and that's nice.

RN yay Tabby! Bet you are in heaven finally having the move behind you! RN I miss chatting with you too Lady! Hehe, I've been giggling for awhile remembering Darren's face and him yelling about a rat and seeing the little squirrel pop out. Thanks Chew. He was a good little visitor to our yard. Never left a mess and stayed out of sight when Harv was out. Even though he was able to get into the garage he never got into anything that we could tell. And he was quite peaceful to watch.

RN, War, I'm so sorry to hear about your personal little Rocky. This morning while I was in the shower, I heard my 2 boys in the backyard barking to raise the dead. I looked out to see them looking up into a a tree where 2 squirrels were obviously having a wonderful time teasing them.

RN I'm so mad at my kids I actually stopped the car in the middle of the street (our street, no traffic, lol,) turned around in my seat and chewed their little butts out. We're driving down the street on the way to school and I hear "click click" then "click click." Caleb! DaKota! They thought it'd be funny to make a game of unbuckling each others seat belts! Have they lost their minds?????? Not only do they have plenty of room to go flying across the minivan through the windshield if I hit something, but do they realize how freaking expensive tickets are for unbelted kids? Let alone two of them!? I'm gonna have to come up with a punishment so creative to make sure the never think to play this game again. As I'm parked there in the middle of the street I saw one of the neighbor ladies on her way to school, she slowed down when she saw me and looked puzzled, right up til she drove past and saw me turned around in the seat waggling my fingers at the kids then she grinned at me and gave me a little wave. At that point I had to bite back a laugh cuz in all the years of threatening to pull the car over, I've never actually had to do it!

RN, I have pulled over more than once, the last time being on our back home from SE Texas weekend before last. And I have to admit I enjoyed that glimmer of terror in his eyes when he thought I was coming over the seat after him.

Rn, that brings back a memory of this woman I worked with, her telling the story of when her girls were little and would not behave in the car. She threatened to pull over, deposit them on the side of the highway and drive away. The girls were not taking her serious, so she did exactly that! She said, the looks on their faces when she drove away was priceless. Now you have to keep in mind this was probably 25 years ago and we lived in a very rural area. She never had a problem with them messing with her in the car afterthat. In today's times no one would dream of doing that, some looney tune would snatch the kids or turn her in to Family Services.

Right now, I just had one of those little surprises in life that make you feel all warm inside. No kidding...it actually brought tears to my eyes. I have been in a bit of a funk since Memorial Day. I just couldn't shake off the sadness. Yesterday, I decided I wanted to read something by a Vietnam Vet so I went to eblog and did a search. I found this blog. http://billsbilge.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_billsbilge_archive.html Well, it was exactly what I was looking for. The guy is a really good writer so I started reading some of his stories. I left a comment for him to keep writing. Then I went to my own blog. I hadn't had the urge to write anything in quite a while...last August as it turns out. So I wrote about Memorial Day...and it did the trick. I feel a whole lot better today. Sometimes I write just to get stuff out of my system. So this morning I go back to Bill's Bilge to read more of his stuff. Imagine my surprise when I see under his list of "Better Blogs"...my own blog listed! There it was "Mary's Musings". He not only visited my blog and read some of it...he posted a comment...and then posted my blog on his site. I was thrilled! That someone of his talent would take the time, and then actually like my writing enough to post a link to it. I have to tell you...I am quite taken aback. The only person that I know that ever reads my blog is my friend Sam and he tells me that he likes it...but he is my friend...so he would. Wow. I am truly amazed right now.

RN Looks Like Marysafan has her very own fan! CONGRATS Mary! RN Ditto, Yay for Secret and Devin! Right Now I am smelling SKUNK...pyu, and we are on the 6th floor, so you can imagine how pervasive the stink is... (hard to type holding nose, wink) And few minutes ago my neighbour yelled NO! and I was about to go over and see if she's alright, (she lives alone) but RIGHT NOW I just heard a WOOF WOOF, so I guess she's got herself a pooch. Hope she's poochsitting... or we have to get used to the woofies. (Mind you our other neighbour has 2 of the cutest poochies you ever saw and they hardly ever get the barkies.)

Right Now, Thanks to all of you for your thoughts, prayers and best wishes not only now but for the past 18 months. Right Now, I'm overwhelmed, last night while I slept, Brianna, Kyle and Dannielle painted my kitchen! I had mentioned how it would be nice to redo it since so many family members would be stopping by to see Devin. Right Now, I'm counting my blessings.
