However the nave is not complete, in that I have t looks like 100 boort ofp stored in the basement.Thank goodness for a large, dry basement! Moving is not fund It's hard work, ceeerially when you have liv- ed izt the stone place for over X/ iv-edmthesameplacefaroverso years; It is my strong belief that everyone should move at least once: every five years, even if it simply means'paddng everyti>ing in your home and' moving it outside and then unpacking it andnutting hack. Z`hat way You , wseliminate anything unnecessary and, years and years of collecting ""junk" would not be facing you the way it was facing .me.

You really know who your friends are whenn't plan something for the md of your move! Adding to the confusion wasthe fact that Number One Son was in the process of moving all his fur- niture and "junk"' home from col- lege. Wow that time sure went by fast. Seems not so long ago I was crying the blues about my baby leaving for, college. Our neer neighbours have been very, kind welcoming us to the com- munity and I know we will be very happy in Lucluiow.

Froin what I can figure out, it is not bred in cats to walk on a lash. As soon as the attrac- tive red leash is around his beautiful grey coat, he proceeds to flop deercarri ohisutside, mats sits and lodes around. Not ha great deal of patience for in one spot for time on end, I chased a long piece of very nylon cord and attached that to leash and then tied the other end on the clothes line. Now he is free to move at his own will. He still wasn't raving around too much un- til the other evening a neighbourbnod feline strolled past. That was the bated he'd moved in the week preceding. Of course, I had to admonish him on his rudeness and tell him that since he was living in a new neighbourhood belled better adjust his attitude m a hurry, failing width he could find himself on the end of a leash for a lengthy hod of time. The look in his piercing green eyes lead me to' believe that it could take Jack a lit. the ;longer to adjust to being- town folk than it WM, the rest of the ,fay.
