felis_lupusYup. Home.
Have bed, and alarm clocks that work. Have generator (or will, once we get it back from Iain), for when the power goes out, so the alarm clocks will still work. Have new fridge, which has some food in it. Have stove, which makes a lovely pot of boiling water, which turns into tea.
Have internet, cable, and phone. Do not yet have my computer. Perhaps this week, and then I can actually post photos, read comics, and catch up on my email for real.
Have kitties, kitties that are not sequestering themselves in their room quite so much anymore. They both went exploring last night for quite a while, not as scared of the big open spaces. Lancelot made it all the way up the stairs tonight. The little baby gate, though closed, did not keep him out for long... around and through the railing, and into what is currently our bedroom. I have since shut the door, since that will eventually be the guestroom, and I don't want my brother and his girlfriend to die of OMG KAT ALLERGY when they come visit.
I appear to not be allergic to my cats. Haven't taken Zyrtec in 3 days, am still fine when I'm aroudn them. This makes me So Happy. I'm a little confused, but am not going to question it.
Pictures, of kitties and house, to be up soon...
Oh yes, K&Q Rapier Champions was last weekend. Fun times. Did as well as I expected to, not as well as I'd hoped, but still had lots of fun. Saw my dear friend![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nomadmwe get a well deserved recognition as Queen's Champion. Spiffy fencing goes a long way. Congrats, hunny. :)

Date: 2010-03-02 02:23 pm (UTC)I still remember sleeping on a queen sized air mattress (that would occasionally lose integrity at at zero-dark-hundred) on the 3rd floor (the newest addition of the house, so the only place besides the kitchen that didn't look like a war zone) with contractor tracks all over everything.
Another big step is finally when you start taking serious steps to make it yours. When we pulled up some shitty wall-to-wall carpet (and were surprised at how great the floors still looked after being covered for 30+ years!) and had the interior painted suddenly it started looking a LOT more like us, and considerably less like the former owners.
Fun times!
Also I demand kitty pix!

Date: 2010-03-02 02:48 pm (UTC)Ripping down the wallpaper, and doing the new paint and new floors went a looooong way towards getting those other people out. Now, we need to get the molding and door and windowframes out of the living room and get that stuff moved, and figure out where to put the random stuff that's all over the kitchen counter, and actually organize the towels and bathroom stuff, and actullay put my clothes back in the dresser, and and and and and... aiee! Soon. Soon. :)
