Moving.

I am supposed to be packing. Why you ask? My husband is on his way to Surface Warfare Officer School next week until the end of February. Then he's making his merry way to Sunny San Diego by mid-March. In May he reports to Mississippi to meet his ship and most likely sail the Atlantic to arrive in California in October (Subject to change per whim of USN)

Don't worry small band of friends/readers. I am not moving until October. (I kind of wish is was November so I could sing that Wyclef Song "Gone til November") I am just making the most lame move a 23 year old can muster. Back with the 'rents. Which isn't sooo lame b/c I love my mom and dad. And they have a new 42 inch flat screen with sweet surround sound. I want to save money and buy a couch and furniture made from wood, not pressed wood fibers. (She's got high apple pie in the sky hopes) So here I am to list the top 5 and worst 5 reasons for moving.

Top Worst Reasons for Leaving Watergate Village:
1. The ceiling really has a lot of character
2. KITTY has to move to Granny's house because she and Bocefus cat will rip each others throats out if left unattended all day. AND kitty might kill Granny because she doesn't move when people walk by.
3. I have to put all my high end art pieces, v.high end, in storage.
4. No freedom to have sweet raves at my place every weekend.
5. Packing Blows. Packing is like being a teacher, it has to be done but no one likes it much.

Top Reasons for moving back in with parents:
1. 100% more free than now.
2. I can get a sweet couch from Pottery Barn.
3. My parents house has insulation.
4. Mom and Dad will only make fun of me a little for having no friends and being their third wheel while Nick is at sea.
5. Chinese food is NOT five feet away. Do I smell a five pound weight loss??

AND moving means Nick is closer to not being with me every single solitary hour of everyday as I would like it to be.

On a different note: Just read "Book of a Thousand Days" by Shannon Hale and it was pretty cool, if you like fairy tales. But, since you probably seek friends and not quality fairy tale books, you may want to pass this by :)

Love Kaley, and Nick

PS I would have added pictures, but we packed the cord.

#2 on the Worst list had me laughing a lot. I hope packing is going well! Call me, suckah.

I gotta say #2 on the Worst list (at least part b) made me a little sad. You make sure Granny is careful (and Grandad for that matter)! :)

K, Did you try introducing Bo and Kitty? There are things you can do to help cats get along. Our Kitty is in for a big surprise when we move because she will be getting a big brother named Snowball. Snowball will be the most shocked I am sure because he is getting a little kitty sister and a little(younger but bigger)doggie brother. It should be fun judging by the noises that came out of him when we brought the doggie brother over after Christmas.

Met Kitty.
She is every bit as sweet as you say. If only every cat was like her.
