First I saw this )
On a sign from a national pharmacy store. No, that is not the plural of strawberry. *weeps*

Then two door down )
Someone has an allergy to Hs. :( :( :(

At least then I saw a cat with a felt check mark on his head.

Had my housewarming. I learned a few things

1) My boss is an embarrassing drunk.

2) Abe, my wild cat, is the most skittish of my three - he vanished when the first three guests arrived and could not be found. Roy eventually wandered out and decided the food table was set up just for him. Johnny was spotted dashing from my bedroom into the small guest room. Abe did not come out until 15-20 minutes after the last guest left and was so upset he couldn't eat. Abe not eating is a big deal. He's a feline vacuum.

3) Maybe a dog in the house wouldn't be a good idea for my current fur beasts.

4) Migraines and alcohol = bad. To be fair, I knew this already but I didn't want to be a total downer at my own party. I felt pretty awful. It was a short party.

There's a room in the basement of my new house that I think used to be a darkroom! So cool.

Put on one coat of paint in bedroom and bathroom, so glad I did. I thought about keeping the gray, but no. Nope. Just not me. Went with a very vibrant green in bathroom. It's love/hate. I happen to love. I can always paint again. :) I am bummed about one thing - there was a full gallon of paint left in the house that was labeled some basic off-white. I was going to use this for baseboards, window and closet. Alas, I cracked it open to make sure this would work and discovered ... pink. Pepto pink. Boo, hiss! On the positive(ish) side, I overbought the wall color and will go to Home Depot to get them to lighten up the extra gallon for trim.

First time anyone but me has seen the place and so far - everyone says I did good. Well, duh! ;) I knew as soon as I saw the knocker it was mine. Now I'll just see what taxes bring, live with fuel oil for a year and then convert. I don't want to finance that project, at least not entirely, so I want to be cautious and sure with what I'm doing (gas or heat pump). If I hurry and try to do it now (incentives end 12/31) I may not make the right decision.

Now I just have to deal with switching over water/sewer and set up garbage. And get a lawnmower. Lawn's a mess. As soon as it sold, they stopped with the upkeep, LOL.

House, house, house!

In other news: for any granola people out there: it's true. Coconut oil, baking soda and cornstarch makes an excellent deodorant. I was a skeptic, but it works a heck of a lot better than anything I've tried pre-packaged.


Also, continue to mostly love S5 of H50, cannot for the life of me recall a thing about NCIS ths year, still enjoy Haven. Sleepy Hollow is fairly ridiculous, but hello pretty people.
