made it to OH

with some agita. I woke up and thought wow, it must be 6 AM or something. No it wasn't. It was just that dark with storms. I sat around home just waiting for that big butt storm to be done with. It was 20 degrees cooler (thankfully).

Finally I went to collect the cats. Mom helped. Kanda wasn't too hard to corral. We got him in the box and he kept flinging himself on the sides, rolling it over. mom and I were laughing so hard. Soul on the other hand started crying the moment I peeked under the bed. We weren't even grabbing for them. We waited, watching TV for a half hour before trying for them. He was a pain in the ass to catch and when I got him. He did this ( one scratched to hell hand )

This could actually cost me my surgery if any of these get infected. I have to be very careful of them. The drive here was painless (okay I lied my leg hurt but otherwise we're here). My plants are alive. I had strawberries for dinner. Roy visited briefly. Spiders were in my sink and tub. Soul is now very happy to see me and won't leave me alone. Kanda is under the futon. go figure
