Well, blogger, it's been awhile...

I haven't blogged in more than a year. I really like to blog and I have wanted to blog but haven't felt like I've had the time to do so. A lot has happened in a year and a half. I'll update you in bullet form because bullet form save times and gives the illusion that I am not randomly rambling:

- We put Elliott cat to sleep last October. At home, in my arms, peaceful. It was time but it was sad.

 

 

- We got a baby kitty. His name is Percy, but he also (sort of) answers to Purdy, Purder, Perfy, Perforation, Puff ball, Purd Bird and other assorted and sundry names.

 

 

 

- We moved! Unexpectedly, on a whim, put an offer in on a house (WITH A POOL!! I mean, ahem, with a pool), they accepted and then we had to get our house ready to put on the market in 10 days because on June 27th...

- We went to Nova Scotia! It was amazing. Soul soothing.

 

 

And if that wasn't chaotic enough, we got a puppy.

Her name is Cali, she's 11ish weeks old, a pointer/lab cross, and a sweetie pie.

Having a puppy seems very much like having a newborn, but without the breastfeeding. I love her, but boy, is she a lot of work. I knew she would be and they boys have been really great about helping with her and I would adopt her again in a heartbeat, but yeah. So different from a kitten.

I'll update more later. I think this is enough for one post.
