Namesake and catching up

Wow, so much has happened in a short amount of time since my last post.  We pulled the plug on the house I mentioned last time.  Inspection revealed over $7,000 in roof repairs needed.  Owners “offered” to pay for new roof after we pulled out of the contract…but it was all for the best to move on.  There was another attempt to purchase in between, but we are in a contract now for another house in Georgetown.  Much bigger home and MUCH newer and more modern!  Not as big a yard, but also won’t have deer eating my garden.  Closing is scheduled for March 1st…stay tuned.

On a sad note, our cat Sassy, the namesake for my blog and crafts is very, very ill.  She’s 14 years old and I guess it’s just her time.  Tuesday she was camped out on our bed, which she never does, and she barely leaves it to go to the bathroom.  She hasn’t eaten since Monday, her fur is dull and her eyes are cloudy.  Hubby and I have both told her it’s okay to let go, but she’s always been a saucy dame and she’s still hanging in.  But you can tell she’s very sick.  We have an appointment with the vet tomorrow morning to help her go and then we’ll bury her at the farm in the orchard.  She’s been a part of our family since she was 6 weeks old.  She was born in December 1996.  She started out as the kitten of a wild barn cat.  She’s a native Texan and has also lived in Reno and Las Vegas, Nevada and Colorado Springs, Colorado.  She’s a pretty good little traveler in a U-Haul and has seen some country for a little wisp of a kitty!  Rest in peace my little torti!  I will always love you very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
