Travel to KC

Travel Day

Our flights were really good and on time… the only problem was in the Miami airport.  We had a 4 hour layover and were going to leave the airport, but at the last minute we changed our mind.  Richard’s back was sore and so we were going to go for a massage/pedicure after getting some Starbucks.  When we got to the spa they only had time for a massage and I was going to have to wait 30 minutes for a pedicure.  So I went over and stood in the massive line for a tea from Starbucks.  There was a lady behind me that kept creeping up and eventually just cut in line in front of me so I was not happy.  After being in line about 15 minutes and still not near the counter the spa came and told me that they could do my pedicure, so I left the line.  As we got back into the spa they told me that they were going to let someone go in front of me even though I was next in line because she was getting both a manicure and pedicure.  I was not happy and went back to Starbucks as I still didn’t have my tea…this time there were 37 people in line in front of me.  As I was 3 people from the counter to order they came and said if I left then they could do my pedicure…  I said no thank you as I am not leaving this line again so they can let someone go in front of me and I then have to go to the back of the line again.  They seemed shocked I didn’t want my pedicure!  By the time I got my tea Richard had a lovely reflexology and back massage and was nice and relaxed…  I on the on the other hand was not!  

Richard and Avery

This is what I hear last night when Richard is upstairs with Avery. 
“Good job you went poo”
“No, no, no don’t stand in you poo” 
“Oh please don’t play with your poo”
“Please don’t play with your poo”
“You have poo all over your leg”
I did eventually go up and help after I had a good laugh downstairs!  

An active kitty

Avery really doesn’t understand the concept of relaxing…  I don’t think she is much of an island cat.   She has recently cut back on her sleeping and looks for new places to go and things to do most of the time.

At least for now she can’t get on my desk or above the first shelf on the bookcase, but I am sure that will all end by the end of the week!
At least she has a few favorite toys that I can use to keep her occupied while I try and get work done!

Avery at six weeks

So Avery is now six weeks old.  It is hard to believe we have only had her for a week as she has changed so much!

Today we got her a new toy as she is really starting to climb everything!  Richard did a great job putting it all together.
Yabbey is keeping an eye on her and making sure she stays in line…
