Weekend Update March 11, 2012
>> Sunday, March 11, 2012
Since my last update:
It’s felt like a busy week but clearly there hasn’t been a lot of either reading or driving time because I’m still reading and listening to the same books I was last Sunday.
I’m reading Elegy for Eddie by Jacqueline Winspear. If my plan for today works out the way it currently exists in my head I’ll be able to finish this today. It’s the newest in a series I love and Jacqueline Winspear’s talent for improving the series with each book is continuing with this one.
I didn’t even leave the house on Monday or Tuesday so that limited my audiobook time since I tend to only listen when I’m in the car by myself. I’m making progress through Rules of Civility by Amor Towles and enjoying it quite a bit.
Other than books and reading:
As I mentioned last week, we have a new family member. Abby has had a good first week and she seems to be settling in just fine.
She likes the kitty condo in the den when I’m working from home.
She and Howie really haven’t fought at all and other than a few growls the first day they’ve settled in to watching each other and getting closer and closer every day. They both want to play but so far not at the same time.
Her favorite toys are the sparkle balls and the grocery sack with a hole cut in the bottom.
My one fear is that I think Howie’s teaching her how to open the cabinets.
I stopped at the library this week and they have a new addition over in the Children’s section. Isn’t this great??
Hope you’re having a great weekend.
No stars – I couldn’t even finish it
1 star – I didn’t like it but I managed to finish it.
2 stars – It was OK. Not good, but seriously just OK.
3 stars - I liked it. I didn’t think it was great, but I thought it was good entertainment.
4 stars – I really liked it. I really think you might like it too.
5 stars – It was amazing. I’d recommend this to just about anyone.

Love the kitty condo. Reminds me we need to get one for our cat Seamus. He would love something like that.
I just read the first Maisie Dobbs and really enjoyed it. How many are there now? How far do I have to go?
She seems a very lively kitty! ^_^

How cute! Do you keep them separate or let them wander as necessary?
Unfinished Person - we have two kitty condos - Howie can take or leave them but Abby seems to love them. I'm glad you read Maisie - you should continue - the series just keeps getting better. The upcoming release is the 9th book.
PeekaBook: she is ;-)
Heavenisabookstore: we only kept them separated the first day and a half. After that they were doing fine and we didn't have to worry about them being together.
