I'm alive

No, really.  Swamped beyond belief, but alive. 

My one highlight at this point in time--aside from the promise of shopping with Betty once she's back from Tahoe and I'm done with my crap (both slated to roughly coincide with each other)--is seeing Mehitabel and the two remaining kittens every day.  The kittens like me, but Mehitabel has told them to stay away--but I can totally tell they want to run over to me. 

I wonder how she told them to stay away?

Ok...back to typing.
