kitty colds + our stuff is arriving soon!
Friend--you know how yucky it feels when you get sick with a cold, right? Can you imagine how it would feel to be a pet who is under the weather? Our 12 year old feline Catniss has developed her first kitty cold--she has watery eyes, is sneezing, and is generally not her cheerful self. Mr. Hobbs found a fuzzy & cozy blanket at Target for her to cuddle up with on the couch in our cabin, and she was quite appreciative. I am calling her "Sniffles" until she is back to full health. :)
We found out today that our household belongings (OUR STUFF!) should be arriving in a just a few days, and tonight we got the call that Mr. Hobbs's car was being delivered to us! He was really happy to get his car, and it is in very good shape after the long journey from Alaska to Maine.
Earlier this summer it rained a huge amount of rain very quickly, and since the door to the basement was not securely closed a LOT of muddy water flowed inside and onto the floor. We swept and vacuumed the floor multiple times and it was still dirty with caked-on mud. So we bought a scrub brush and a mop and spent several hours cleaning the floor today. We will mop again 1 or 2 more times before our stuff arrives so that we have a clean spot on the floor to stack boxes. We might be able to move from our cabin into our new house before Thanksgiving!
Keep reading, and whenever possible--be kind! ~~Mrs. Hobbs
