Happy new year!

Settling in
Watching the cats fuss about in the morning finding a place to nap reminds me of how I have been feeling trying to find my new normal. Some mornings are easier and others I still struggle with feelings of anxiety. The cats in the cattery take a day to become orientated to the surroundings and it…

Today is the day….I can go and get the keys!
Yay! Thank goodness for that. We have finally got the go-ahead to pick the keys up. The funny thing is that we have an early Christmas with family over the weekend and then we can get into building the Cattery. This is a lesson in patience for someone who likes everything done yesterday! I know…
