* They have arrived .....

Spent a busy day yesterday doing last minute errands etc. for Kathleen and Ivan's visit.  They will be here with us for a few days until their rental house is ready.  It was one of those days when nothing went quite according to plan ... hairdresser had a little note on her door she was on holiday, the mail I was expecting is nowhere to be found (nothing new there), Habibi choked on his food he was so excited and his throat went into some sort of spasms which made it hard to breathe, and after I was dressed, I decided to fix the logs in the fireplace ... well .... SOOT from one end of me to the other.  I had no idea that stuff was so hard to get off!

Habibi snuggled in the sheepskin 'waiting'.
  Anyway, after a few mishaps on this end, they arrived after smooth sailing, about 11:00 pm.  First order of the day was to 'get comfortable', so here's a darling photo of Kathleen coming into the living room with her nightie on.  We drank champagne and ate brie until 2:30 am.  Nice!  Very very nice!


Terrible quality photograph, but too 'cute' not to publish.  

Oh so fabulous to have them here. 

Good Friends:  "“We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.  After that we are there for each other, no matter what.”  (I thought that was sort of a cool definition and in many ways very true.)

Well after a challenging start, it looks as if everything fell into place. A comfortable scene, and I see Habibi needed to rest up from his ordeal. Thankfully he didn't get covered with soot, too!

Glad you are enjoying your company. It looks really cozy there by the fire, and Habibi has, as usual, made the best of the situation! Enjoy your time together, and hope the soot has been washed off by now! Hugs, Valerie
