I also made a run to the airport to pick up Megan, Jeremy, and the kids. After several airport trips over the past two years, I’m finally getting the hang of navigating the Minneapolis–St. Paul airport. The trip there was uneventful. The trip back? Not so much, thanks to a detour, 494 West was closed for construction. Around here, the running joke is that Minnesota has two seasons: winter and road construction. Today certainly proved the point.
Once we got home, Megan dropped me off and picked up Sylvie and Pan. They were absolutely delighted to see her. During their stay this past week, we kept our grandcat, Alto, in our bedroom. Joe moved her food, water, litter box, and scratch pad back to their usual spots, but Alto hasn’t budged. She’s still hunkered down under a bench. She’s acted bulimic forever, throwing up a couple of times a week. But while she was tucked away in our bedroom, she only threw up once - just a hairball. Maybe she wants to keep living up here. Honestly, I relate. I have plenty of days when I’d be perfectly happy to hunker down in our bedroom with a book.
We’re also celebrating some good news: our recent guests, Shelly and Artie (and their dog, Pebbles), found an apartment near Jeremy’s sister in Wisconsin (a little over an hour from us) and they’ll be moving in this Friday. They’ve been staying with Jeremy’s sister since last Sunday, so this is a relief for everyone.
And in the world of headlines, it looks like we may finally see the Epstein files released now that Forty-seven has given the Republicans “permission.” At least, that’s what he wrote in a Truth Social post this evening. Good news.
That’s all the thoughts rattling around in my brain for now. Have an awesome Sunday night. I’m off to hunker down in the bedroom with Alto.
