Seen my camera?


That's still missing, but after another bout of Exorcist style sickness last night combined with much car drama, today was a much better day. E didn't have to be at work till 10:30, and then he even got to leave early, so he picked up D and they brought over the bees and went over the house with landlord J. He's gotten so odd - but was happy enough with the way the house looked - good thing with all the work we put into it! That place looks so much better then when we moved in a year ago.

Shotzee - one of the outside cats we "inherited" - now named Kiwi/Old Testament/Starsky (we haven't agreed on one yet) is still here, curled up in her straw filled box. She came running over as soon as I filled the food dish, but who knows where her son went too. He came to the sliding doors the night we moved in, I fed both of them, but he's been nowhere to be seen since. He can also run out of sight a lot faster when he hears me coming, so he might still be around.

I finally felt calm enough to enjoy the scenery today when I went out to feed and water the chooks - no eggs since the move, but can you blame them? So much stress for already nervous birds! Their egg production should pick up as we move away from the Solstice, even if we don't get artificial lighting out there again till next winter. The corn fields just look so nice this time of year - love all that space! We have a few neighbors, but corn fields surround us on most sides. Our land is just rough mown hay, cut short, with a more "manicured" lawn area around the house and by the dirveway.

I had E and D move the last boxes into the living room - on the far end of the house - ahhh, so much better. I think we're going to set up the tree tonight - move on from this move already!!! Maybe even a fire?? We just need to start fresh - we've been so wrapped up in moving, packing, scheduling - Gah! Neither of us has even thought about the holidays, really. I don't even have E's presents yet... I think I'll have E help me with macaroons tonight - then I'll at least have cookies made if I feel well enough for the cookie exchange.
