Storms and Kitty Cats and Things Since Then

There are times I most definitely miss having internet. Like when I think of things I want to blog about, but can't actually post it. But that's okay, that's what Microsoft word is for. Plus, I've learned that my phone is capable of doing many awesome things! It just makes my thumbs cramp if I type to long. But that's okay, at least I can still keep in touch with friends.

I wanted to post something I'd written ages ago, but it was doing some funky things when I tried to post it, so I may just have to summarize it. I'd moved my cats in the middle of July, and boy were they not happy about that. Thor kept running to the basement and Odin refused to leave the safety of behind my mom's bed. But eventually, with much turmoil, they were loaded up and we ventured off.

Thankfully they didn't meow the whole way, but definitely most of it.

Odin went to hide beside the toilet as soon as we arrived and Thor refused to leave the crate. So, after making sure they had food and water I went off to a fun housewarming/birthday/barbecue party!

Though, that's when the thunderstorm rolled in. And of course it wasn't one of those short lasting, barely noticeable ones. Nope, it was the black sky, torrential downpour and massive lightning strikes kind.

I was sure my cats were thinking: "I so hate you right now mom."

But, they came to cuddle as soon as I was settled into bed, so it wasn't all that bad!

Since then they've settled in quite nicely. They meow at me again in the mornings, telling me to hurry up and feed them. They cuddle with me during movies (but only the last ten minutes and then refuse to leave when I want to get up and change dvds), and spend lots of time either fighting with each other or watching the world go by. Odin loves the horses! He's fascinated by them! He'll stayed glued to the window as he watches them in the fields or being ridden. It's adorable! Thor likes the cows... It now makes sense why I always get along better with Odin.

I love having them around though. I have my boys to come home too, and they both sleep with me on my bed. It's cozy.

There were a few ups and downs last month, but I learned that all my needs are being provided for. Life really is good, and it's been a wonderful opportunity to learn more about myself, and make better decisions because of that.

I've been getting back into painting too, and I'm thinking of starting a mini-business for portraits. Mainly of horses for now, since they're my strong point (big surprise there, huh?) But I'll post a link here when I have the website set up.

Well that's all for now!
