Settling in

I'm still getting used to typing on my little netbook keyboard. Victor's currently using my regular sized one to type since his fingers are bigger than mine and I can handle this little board better.

The first night we were here Atton climbed a tree and got stuck. I had to go up and rescue him and it took a while but I was able to grab him by the scruff of his neck and pull him down. Poor thing dug his claws into the tree, but I had to keep pulling. I think I might have ripped a claw or something. I felt so bad but I couldn't just let him run back up the tree. He started slipping at one point and latched onto my leg, I'm surprised my pants blocked his claws, but my leg didn't get even one scratch.

Otherwise the cats are doing great. Bony and Foxy slept with us the first night, Atton's been kinda aloof and sleeping in one of the cat beds on the other side of the camper. Foxy slept in a the kitty tunnel last night.

Yesterday I slept in until 7:30, came up to my mom's house to use the internet because ours isn't on yet. We had tea and doughnuts. (homemade ones!) Then after the rain stopped so we wandered down to the camper and Steven and Victor got the heater and stove in the camper hooked up. The fridge will take a while cause a squirrel or something made a nest in the outside box for it and there's nuts and stuff in it everywhere and we're still cleaning it out.

We also set up the lawn swing and I moved the hammock over by it.

I also got things more organized. I brought in the laundry basket and some more clothes. We have various vitamins organized in a cabinet.

It was cold and windy yesterday but that was ok. I wore knee-high socks, I have some on again today.

I made us taco casserole last night and then we had pudding for desert. We watched two movies and by that point it was about 10:30ish I think. Weird. I still woke up around 6:30-7:00.

Didn't sleep too well last night I was too hot so I threw off two of the blankets and then I was too cold and had to bring them back.

I have no idea what kind of tags to use for this entry. hm

And I need to find my crate of hair toys. All I have right now are my regular ties, little elastics, and pins. What I want are my needles and ribbon so I can do hair taping.

Here's our cars, the camper, and our shed. My parents built the shed for us and I am very, very grateful to them! My mom put a gutter on the shed yesterday.

This view is from somewhere by the front of my car.

And here's my handsome husband who promptly fixed his hair so those lovely little locks and didn't hang over his ears anymore. Bleh. I like stray strands.

This is the quilt Bonnie made us for our wedding. We actually added another blanket or two on after this, I just wanted to show off the quilt because our top blankets aren't as pretty.

As you can see here the bed isn't as big as our old one. I have more stuff on that shelf now, buckets of clothes mainly.
