The move

On Saturday, Jaime and Rebecca came over to help us move boxes and the smaller furniture. This put us long ahead of schedule and I had to call [profile] seki_raku for emergency cat-sitting. Ivan was not happy about this at all, and did plenty of outraged howling. Seki got some good photos of him pouting.

We decided to sleep at the condo, bed or no bed. By late night, Ivan had a new game: slap the hard plastic ball around in its round track, then run madly around the condo, coming back to slap the ball again and repeat. He's also puzzling out the mystery of the kitty in the mirrored doors of the closet.

Today the movers came for the furniture, so now the cottage only contains our bikes, cleaning supplies and a couple last boxes. [profile] electorprince and I need to clean it out later this week. This weekend I have drill, including a PT test. Blecch. E-Prince said that whenever he gets too nostalgic for the Army he thinks about PT tests and that cures him real quick.

I met with our window covering lady. Seki helped me pick out the colour for the shutters we're installing, which is Swiss White. In the bedroom we're getting horizontal blinds in a medium brown wood whose name I can't remember.

Tomorrow, I have a harp lesson for which I am sadly underprepared, and procuring groceries to fill our fine new stainless-steel fridge.

Haha, kittens and mirrors. Has he done this yet?

YES. He did that with the fur on his tail standing on end. He also went around the back of the closet door to find the other kitty and eventually seems to have realized that other kitty is himself.

That's so cute! I like how the kitten backs up from the mirror so quickly that he falls off the bed

heh...I love the idea of Ivan trying to find the kitty in the mirror.
