The ends of the earth and back

I’ve spent the last two of the last five days commuting - introducing the cat to family members (she was kinda funny when we spent time with Gregor dog (a border terrier) cause she fuzzed up and growled but didn’t actually do anything. Mom likes her, Dave’s dad likes her - everyone likes her.

We dropped the kids off - we spent time with lots of freinds - we spent more time with lots of freinds (waves to everyone!) went to a great meal, a brilliant show (Otis Lee Crenshaw) and spent time just chilling. The drive home was surprisingly easy - Kushie only yowled cause her mat in her cage was wet and slept most of the way back.

Saturday - Kushie was really unhappy travelling, but we think it was because we left too early and she didn’t get to use her litter box - once she’d made a mess in her carry case (which, of course, we changed) she went to sleep. We travelled really well - she yowls a bit, but it’s fairly understandable given I don’t think she’s ever travelled somewhere without being dumped there, so we’ve had to keep reassuring her . On arriving, we went and dropped off the cat, and went to see family, before my beloved dropped me off at moms, and I took the kids to see Wall-e. It was worth it. It was also great to see my uncle. Mom wasn’t back from Egypt yet, so sleep was achieved, around midnight.
Sunday - We got up, the small was a nightmare - she continued to be awful the whole day. We went for lunch, we hung out and did stuff. We went to see mom when she got back from Egypt, and dropped the kids off, (they are spending 13 days with thier father, all going well) before going to freinds for Pizza and hanging out.

Monday - went into town with the camera in the morning. I got a lot of nice snaps (which I’ll post in about a week, once I’ve fixed my gallery page) and one stunning one, before going to meet my other half’s mom for lunch. Lunch achieved, we headed off to have coffee with Edith, and then went to Black Lion to buy some games (I was thwarted in picking up both Cold City and 3:16 which lead me to sulk) then back to my other half’s dad for tea. And then we went to Keith’s for games.

Tuesday - more photos, more coffee (with Gregor this time), then we went home to get ready for tea. We went for said meal, then laughed our asses off at Otis Lee Crenshaw before going home. Sleep, once again achieved.

Wednesday - we got everything packed, took everything out to the car, took the cat to mom’s - mom liked the cat, the cat didn’t like the dog but it was ok, they didn’t fight. We got into the car - drove to Grenta Green (NOT MARRIED!), got lunch and some chocolate from the outloet shop and achieved much misshapes. We got home, curled up and will - soon - fall asleep. Kushie is just delighted to be home and has given every edge tonnes of love.

The rest of our ‘holiday’ contains things like going to chapel Spa together to relax - going to the I-max in Brum to see the Dark Knight (and wander around) - Judder for a birthday celebration and just - generally - spending lots of time in calm, quiet chilling ways. I don’t know what the nitty gritty of it is going to be other than tomorrow we’re staying home. I’ll probably spend it cleaning the kids rooms to be honest. Though I might wait till next week ;)

Writing should also be happenening once I finish letting it percolate.
