On this first day of vacation, I am bundled up on the couch on a foggy morning, surrounded by sleeping cats and dogs. I feel a nap in my future!

I got up with the kids this morning so I could start a beef stew in the crockpot. There were a lot of couch snuggles before Nicole took them to the babysitters house. I wish I could say I feel a little guilty sending them off while I spend the day relaxing, but I am reveling in the silence. I have plenty of chores to do, but I have a big afternoon ahead of me. Perhaps my favorite thing about vacation is that there is no rush.

Thelma brought us a new foster kitten. A sweet little tortie we're calling Holly. She came from a horrific situation and Thelma is desperately trying to trap her littermates before any real cold sets in. The foster critter crew continues to grow! Thelma said the rest of the kittens are way less tame. It looks like I will be spending at least part of my vacation taming feral kittens!
