It's Spring!

Have some snow! Seriously, once March 21st hit we've been pounded with snow, hail, sleet, rain, a little sun, some more snow, more rain, hail...

Spring is one of my favorite times of the year, mainly because it means summer is right around the corner, and summer means RENN FAIRES!!!! Not only that, but it means that I can buy and wear sunscreen (I can wear sunscreen in the winter too, but it tends to make people stare). Sunscreen is one of my favorite scents, and I enjoy my annual search for the perfectly smelling sunscreen.

And now for the updates: Himself will be finishing his meat-cutting class this quarter (this is the shortest quarter too, only 9 weeks instead of 16)! This will mean that he'll go from apprentice to journeyman and get a pay raise!

Baby Kitty is now known as Little Bit, since she's not really a baby anymore. She's as cute as ever and isn't against using her cuteness as a weapon of mass distraction. She and Miss Thang love sleeping with each other, and she's taken up the hobby of leaping up as high as she can on the bed and landing on the nearest unsuspecting body relaxing on the same bed.

Miss Thang is pretty much always sleeping or bathing. She's washed herself so much, she's slightly bald from the middle of her body back to her tail. Himself and I both think she looks kind of like a lion. She's been trying to show Little Princess that she's boss, but Little Princess isn't listening.

Speaking of Little Princess, she's pretty much always sleeping or trying to be a big brave kitty and reclaim her bedroom territory from the much smaller, but much meaner girls.

I've been working a little more, but still not as often as I like. Lots of training and review stuff that I know for the most part, but in my line of work, review never hurts. I might even take a rigging class that the Union does every summer that will allow me to make over $30 an hour for usually several hours per call. It may not be this summer, since I already have plans on taking a 93 mile hike with a small group of people, work, going to the renn faires, and various other summertime activities that Himself and I have planned. I'll probably do the class next summer when I'm a little more comfortable with being in high places with really heavy counterweights.

Himself and I are still looking for a house, but we've been talking about renting for another year so we can make our apartment our home and enjoy it a little. Our noisy neighbors aren't quite as bad as they had been (Himself thinks maybe they killed each other, and that's why they've been so pleasant to live next door to).

Well, that's about it. I was having some issues with Blogger for a little while, but I think it's resolved now. That will probably mean more posts a little more often.
