Moving

Well! If I thought the carpet cleaning ordeal last June was bad, it was nothing compared to moving from Denver to Longmont. Mommie says she had all the work to do! And had to deal with short-circuited power outlets, flat tires, rain, and all other kind of hassles--but I had to get shut in the bathroom for hours without seeing what was going on! All kinds of noises were banging around outside my door. And Mommie was even gone for awhile to get the tire fixed! And then I had to get in my carrier again, and she drove us away from Denver up here to Longmont, and we had to go through the thing with the movers again in reverse, me sitting in the bathroom (and complaining, to no avail) while Mommie directed the movers where to put the furniture and boxes. Finally they left and she let me out, and oh--what a wonderful place to explore, so many great hiding places! I was cuddly with her last night because she needed me, but spent most of today hiding under the bed--just because I could! (She used to have a lot of stuff stuck under the bed). At least it's pretty here, with lots of nice trees to look at instead of that stupid construction site, and the mountains are closer, and Mommie says there is a lake right down the road where she plans to go walk once she gets settled.
Of course I won't get to do that--you wouldn't catch me on a leash, and Mommie says a lot of people walk dogs around the lake too, and Uncle Dave has seen foxes over there when he was walking his dog! So guess I'd better stay here and watch out the window. I hope we like it here.
