And We're Underway!

It's been rather busy around here lately. Golfer and I have been trying to get a few things done in preparation of the new flooring project. I had mentioned earlier about the bathroom and one thing leading to another. Yes. Well. That continues. At this point though, most of the first coat of paint is on the walls. After a few glitches, Golfer got the new light fixture installed. That turned out to be a bigger project than we anticipated, due mainly to the way the original contruction of the house was done. But the light is up and I think it looks good and will be just fine. Golfer did a great job! Thanks, honey!


Golfer and I had a strenuous morning rounding up the furry kids. I guess it would be more accurate to say rounding up Cecil. Hermione and Cinder were fairly easy to get into their carriers. However, Cecil is afraid of everything and is very timid. Evidently he is also a mind reader. He knew something was up. We all went round and round and round. We almost had him when he was under the Lazy-Boy loveseat, but he had wrapped himself around the mechanical workings under there and I lost my grip on him trying to get him out. Then he was behind the big TV. Golfer moved it and Cecil moved behind the speakers. Poor little Cecil was so scared he peed on himself (and us). But finally Golfer was able to scoop Cecil up and then we hugged him and talked nice to him and I put him in his carrier. They are all now safely checked into the kitty condos at York Veterinary Clinic. Our friend, and their regular sitter, Lisa, works there and will keep an eye on them.


Kirk is here working now. The old toilet has been removed, doors taken down and moved into the garage, vinyl flooring and carpet is coming up and other big items are being moved out. So the work is underway.

The new countertop is scheduled to be installed late this afternoon.

Take care of yourselves and stay safe! More later!
