Hi everybody!!
I am finally in my place! My car is empty, the cats are in my room settling in nicely. I'm not going to let them out into the rest of the place until I've finished cleaning it. They're happy in my room so long as I'm there to sleep with at night.
The cleaning is a work in progress, let me tell you! I wanted to get my room set up and uncluttered as much as possible, so the first thing I did was clean it and MY bathroom. My daughter Amy and I went to a place called IKEA yesterday. I couldn't believe all the stuff they had!! I got a dresser for $60!! Unfortunately, you have to assemble it. But I'll try and do that tomorrow after I call the temp agency.
I'm realizing now that I left alot of my hang out clothes behind in plastic bags I just didn't see (sometimes when you want to get out of somewhere in a hurry like I did Michigan, big black trash bags become invisible). Oh well, I needed new underwear anyways. Yeah, I know, TMI.
The vacuum cleaner Mark has is awful!! It's one of those broom-vacs. Picks up NOTHING!! Amy sold me her Hoover upright with attachments for $20 cuz she wanted an excuse to buy a new one. It works great!!! She bought a brand-spanking new Hoover bagless.
Today Amy and I went to a Pet Expo. I saw alot of my rescue and cat show buddies who were trying to convince me that I needed to either get back into rescue or to foster. I politely told them that after doing it for over 10 years, I need a break, as I'm burned out. They just shook their heads.
Well, it's 7:30 and I'm off to bed, believe it or not. I'm exhausted. I'll check in tomorrow.
Tootles!!

I think the closest ones to us right now are Atlanta and somewhere in Virginia...I plan on making a trip to one of them when I get my own place, though...It's worth the trip!
