Lookie At What I Got.
There was a mystery message on my answering machine. Someone with a really really good memory had remembered me saying that I loved this and if they were ever getting rid of it I would like first refusal.
And so for the cost of a few bottles of wine it was mine all mine. Once I had rung 2paw and she was able to remind me just what was going on! they remembered that I love it. I had forgotten it ever existed.
They brought it right over- but I havent read it yet.
But of course that is because it isn't actually for reading!!!!!
Yay. It is so cute....in a big, shiny,wooden, where the hell am I going to put it, kind of way!
Needless to say I had help at every stage of the re organising. Nothing could be moved unless a special check was made for kittens on, under, near, beside and in anything.
It has a drawer. It is great. It is full of crap now of course. It had been full of kitten, but once they had finished exploring I was able to empty 2 boxes and 3 baskets of pens and rulers and rubberbands and ...well lets just say sooooooooooooooooo much crap. I love it.
I only had to move the couch, chairs, 2 other tables, a walking machine , cat tunnels , cat toys, CD tower, stereo speakers and various bundles of stuff- knitting, sewing etc etc. to fit it in my living room. I don't think I had to move any of it more than 3 times !!! The kittens were very, very excited. Snuffling everything. Caramello ate all the ancient cat treats that turned up behind the couch and they loved the dust bunnies under the coffee table. They were totally exhausted by the time I finished, at 3am. As was I. Well that is one way to spend a Friday night.
So happy.
And all my Parent Teacher Interviews are finished.
Let the Games begin !!!!!!!! Feel free to join me in my dance of joy!
I might dance on my Marco Polo coffee table! Although maybe I should just dance around it...slightly safer when consuming celebratory duty free vodka!
