I AM EMPLOYED!!!!!!

Did you see the fireworks at 8:20 CST today? They were because I got a job. I am so excited!! I start Tuesday.

Jake seems to be adjusting pretty well. His favorite place to sleep is on someone. Not near someone, but ON them. Glen is making him a sleeping post. Since he likes to be up high, we have to reverse baby-proof the place. Anything on the ground is safe, but he keeps eyeing the mantle. He can easily jump onto the tall dressers, so I know he can do it. This is only about 3 feet high.


Ethan came home from school Monday and went in to wake Jake up from his mid-afternoon nap (on my bed). He had already had his afternoon and early afternoon naps, so he was ready to rock. He was quite happy to see Ethan and started purring immediately.

When Ethan does his homework at the kitchen island, Jake sits right next to him. They both have their afternoon snack together before playing for a while. I would say they are quite good buddies.

We got a lot of snow this week. Ethan had 2 snow days, so they will have to make them up at the end of the year. Unfortunately, one of them was Valentine's Day, but the party is rescheduled for today. It's fun to play in the snow, but it is so frigigly freezing, it's hard to stay out in it for too long.

I got an action shot of a snowball being thrown at Glen while he was trying to dig out my basement well. I need to get a cover for it so when I'm in my room I'm not looking out the window at a wall of snow.

OK, it's really hard to type with a cat in the lap, so I'm gonna sign out. Adios amigos.
