Cat-Sitting Redux

Rest assured, cat-sitting does not involve any sitting on any cats whatsoever. Cats are involved, yes, sitting is optional, but does occur.

Off to a bad start:
Some time on Friday afternoon, I remembered that I needed the alarm code. Checked an old email, and found it. Then about 5pm (about when Chris and Nancy's flight left), I had the dreadful thought that maybe they changed the alarm code! I packed an overnight bag to take with me to work, thinking I'll head over to the Waterhouse right after skiing. Then I realized I left the key at home. Called the neighbours: thankfully they were home -- saved me a drive out to New West and back.

The plants in the planter aren't doing that great...will have to remember that pansies and tulips need more sun that what you get between houses. The pansies are actually very healthy, but they have no flowers. The tulips are super long floppy leaves.

The cats seem to remember me -- they don't run and hide, but came up to stare at me. It was very cute. Arjun sure wanted attention. Ashok lay on the sheets after I turned the bed covers down. He complained when I picked him up to put him next to Arjun at the foot of the bed, but stayed long enough to make a nice foot warmer.
