Limbo

I have a house. I have internet. I have the wireless network set up. The necessities are complete.

I am still on the laptop; it will be several days until I can get into my office-to-be & put together my desk & PC. As a result, I probably won't be posting, or even doing much online. Laptops are convenient, but bloody uncomfortable -- my wrists hate it when I use the laptop.

The move went reasonably smoothly. It rained torrentially on Monday, so we were forced to postpone the move a day, as our driveway was a hundred yards of mud, and I knew that if a semi was even able to get in, it wouldn't get out. On the bright side, it gave us a day of rest, and a day for the contractors to finish up the two bathrooms upstairs & the kitchen.Well, mostly finish the kitchen, anyway.

The cats are not happy with their new home. They will be, but they'll need to adjust.

I am very happy, and very happy to be back in Athens. It's good to be home, but strange -- I still can't believe I don't have to leave. Except to make one final trip to the old house to pick up some last things & the other dog. Carrying seven cats and one dog was enough -- another hundred pounds of husky would have been a bit much.

The last time we moved, the cat who lived with us then was terrified of the new house. He would slip between the sliding closet doors, then be trapped in the closets. He would hide in the bathtub. The first night there was a storm, and our cat, who never normally shared our bed, slept in my husband's arms.

They do hate to move. But they also get used to new places, eventually.

Best wishes in your new home.

Congratulations on completing the move. We look forward to hearing more from you now. Hehe. And now that you're moved (even if not settled in), I can finish plotting something Myth and I were planning for you and Barbara.

So glad you are settling into your new digs. I will miss visiting you at Mayapple, but I also cannot wait to see the new place. Give my love to Barbara and Morganna.

Hey, Zak! Hope things are blissful once you get settled in. I've never been to Appalachia, or anywhere else in Ohio-- except for one hour in the Cincinnati airport. Will go and look at some Athens pics on google or whatever. See ya,
Romy
