Hello my darlings.....wow these days just seem to be flying by.  Do have some sad news.....Tigger was found....the dogs next door got him......and yes I cried.  Uncle Bob burried him for me and told mom to tell me.  He was feared that I would not do well with seeing him.  He was a great cat.....and will always be in my heart.  Just doesn't seem fair......

Update on the house is.....we got the floor joices in and the kitchen floor down.  Started tearing into the ceilings and exposing the beams.  Jerry looked them after he started tearing the ceiling down.  He is so funny......he ran to the fire house and grabbed his gear and a rip pole....these are used for ripping down ceilings during a fire.  Really cool toy!  but heavy after awhile.  But it was a whole lot easier doing that way then climing on ladders and eating the plaster!  We bagged up the old blow in insulation as we went.....if not it is a freaking nightmare!  The floor looks great and it is LEVEL!  yeah!  working with a 150 year old house is not easy.....you have to go with the flow!  At least we finished that part in just a weekend!  Now we can start to plan the wiring and set some boxes.

Monday I went down and decorated the porch for Halloween and it turned out really cute.  Made a big spider web using fishing line, and tinsel, and some lights!  Looks really cute.....I also have a 11' spider to get stuffed if this blasted rain would ever go away!  I did get my 6' bat stuffed and hung.....struggled with that dude but he finally made it!  giggles!  if the blasted winds don't tear my stuff down....all will be well.

Trick or Treat will be the 30th and so is the Firemans Chili Supper....so you can see this day will be busy busy busy!  I think we are going to start cooking the night before then reheat that day.....plus I will help serve but I also want to spend some time down at the house passing out candy.  Mom and I are so looking forward to seeing all the kiddies and their outfits!  OOO it will be nice!  Plus we are both dressing up.....I think I have settled on dressing up like a cat.....I have been starring at this VCR tape...the musical....CATS....and I love their outfits and makeup.  So I stopped yesterday and picked up some makeup and hair coloring.  Now I just have to work on an outfit.....but I think I have that figured out....I am going to take a sweat suit and turn it inside out so the fleece is facing out....and tack on some felt and make a tail....then do my hair and face.....might add some fur....but not sure...then I will get a black pair of gloves and cut the fingers off.

I do have some good news....I have a new addition to the family......Little Man....a black kitten.  I got him from the Human Society so he has been fixed and shots...and test for the feline lukemia ? so that was a wonderful thing.  Sarge...I think is happy to have another buddy but we have to go through that jelous stage!  giggles!  So as soon as I can....I will post a picture.  He is really a cool kitty and this one will be a total house cat....for my heart can take no more.  He has such a great personality and is not scared of anything!  HEHE....so nice to have the pitter patter of little feet again!

Well darlings.....I know the weather is not pretty......and it is getting colder but we must keep our chins up!  Wishing everyone warm toes!

XOXO
