Update

 I am sorry I haven’t written for several days. It seems to take me longer than it used to do to feel "normal"  after  moving  out of my comfort zone. So some bullets.

  • It  is really nice to be here visiting my younger son. Except for two brief visits on his part, this is the  first time I have spent more  than a few hours with him in several years! Unfortunately, he has a rotten summer cold and though it seems to be subsiding, he is not at  his best healthwise.
  • He has very kindly  given me the use of his second laptop. I am fighting the damn cursor which wants to jump all over the place thus causing a lot of confusion.
  1. Jake’s two cats are  are an  endless source of  amusement.  I bought them a tall climbing tree a day or so  ago and  we both have had a lot of fun watching them. This morning Rocky ran across  the room to make a jump on to the place he likes to sit and missed. He bumped his head and slithered  down to the floor!
  • OD diarist VeronicaCorningstone very kindly lent me her GPS to use in the car I rented but I couldn’t get it to attach anywhere so I stayed in yesterday and watched Pawn Stars! {I don’t have a TV  at home by choice so I am overdosing on it here!} Jake fixed the GPS so I plan to drive around a bit today.
  • The weather here is fantastic for which I take full credit since before I came, I ordered cool days with sunshine!

More Later…

I am so glad that you’re visiting with your family; I can just imagine the kitties having grand fun on that tree. It’s a pity about your son’s cold, but he sounds like he’s on the downswing on it. And you sound very chipper and up.

Three o’clock this morning and I am wide awake. It was a good time for me to come to your diary and read back a little bit. I am sorry for your loss. By the many notes I can tell the you and Fred are loved here. I am adding you to my favorites list. By the way, I play Draw Something also! Are you Starting Over’s artistic D.S. friend that she has mentioned?

Awww…you are nice to give the kitties a jumping tree. Maybe you’ll get to be their cat sitter once in awhile.
