The Journey began. My goodness, I look so exhausted. I WAS exhausted! I had only given myself a couple of days between ending my office job and leaving town and ran balls-to-the-wall right to the end. I woke up around 2:45 that morning with a massive headache and we had to be up (well the plan was to be up)...
Wow. We’re closing in on an entire year in Raleigh. It still blows my mind that I actually moved across the United States. With two cats. (Who hate car rides.) I have yet to get over to the beaches but at least I no longer have to constantly remind myself that the ocean is EAST and the mountains are to...
I grew up on those big turkey Thanksgiving feasts, where grandpa and all of the uncles, aunts, and cousins came over and we stuffed ourselves silly. Well, since going veggie almost five years ago, those big turkey dinners are wasted on me. The closest I would get was picking up 1/4 pound of ground turkey from the local butcher and...
We’re getting into Hot Cocoa Season. HOORAY!!! I’m wearing shirts with sleeves that extend below my elbows. WOOT!!! The trees are turning and the colors are stunning! However, it’s still and forever Allergy Season for me because apparently, I’m allergic to air. Win some. Lose some. Where DOES the time go? It’s mind-blowing to realize that I’m well into my...
Today is National Cat Day. I thought I’d celebrate some of the sweet kitties from Best Friend Pet Adoption. First, let’s celebrate some recent adoptions! Uno’s goofball brothers, Dos and Tres, are still available for adoption, as are many other sweet cats. And, of course, no Cat Day celebration is complete without honoring my best boys! Happy National Cat Day!...
Sorry it’s a little late, fam. Had a bit of a situation over here. An unwelcome visitor, so to speak. I’m just glad it didn’t completely trash my place. As I was starting to think of what to write about my eighth month in Raleigh, a swirl of clouds appeared off the coast of Africa. Over the next 10 days,...
My, how time flies! It seems like I just wrote the six-month po…oh yeah. I was a bit late on that one, wasn’t I? Well, here’s to not letting another update languish in my Drafts folder for three weeks! So I did some stuff in my seventh month in North Carolina. I’m still working hard as a freelancer. That’s the...
It’s not that I had forgotten about my monthly update. Things are launching in some areas and others seem stuck on the launch pad and I’ve been working and nudging as seems appropriate. It sort of seems impossible that it’s already been six months since Dos Gatos Locos and I spent our first nights here in Raleigh. I was excited,...

I’m really trying to avoid turning this into a Cat Blog, but dangit, these boys of mine are so gorgeous! Also, it’s Adopt A Shelter Cat Month, so if you were thinking of adding some FLOOF to your life (highly recommended), check out your local shelters and rescue groups!
