A new addition

Well, besides adding Kris to the household now. Look what we've just acquired:

She's 9 weeks old and I think her name is going to be "M". Notice the M shape on her forehead?

Needless to say, Butters, our 8 year old orange tabby, is not exactly pleased.

I'm not sure...

Well, I've wanted this blog to be somewhat lighthearted and boring. But somtimes things happen that you just have to talk about since there's now been a big change in the household.

You see, on May 30, Kristofer's Dad died (Kris is our grandson). Judy and I are becoming the legal guardians of him. He's living with us now. He's got a pretty sweet set up in the basement. Big screen TV, cable, internet, Xbox.

Last night he had 3 of his friends over for a sleep over. They behaved themselves pretty good. Except when they went out to "ding and dash". Now feeding 4 boys in their early teens isn't too hard but it is expensive. $70.00 worth of pizza, $30.00 worth of snacks/pop, and about $10.00 worth of donuts for breakfast this morning.

And to top it off, Judy's talking about getting a new kitten for Kris! This could prove somewhat of a challenge with our current cat who is 8 yrs old. She owns the house and I'm not too sure she's going to accept a new kitten in the house. At first, at least. I'm sure they'll get used to each other. It's just the transition period that's going to be a headache.

EXCELLENT MOVIE!

Attended the advanced showing of "Star Trek" last night. Excellent show! All the characters were spot on. Especially "Bones" (forget the actors name at the moment). Played him perfectly. Spock was a little too...emotional for me but still done well. The movie was fasted paced and there really wasn't a dull moment. Been reading some of the reviews this morning and they're all good.



I was a little disappointed that more people that went weren't dressed up. I think I was the only one. Well, it was an advanced showing and I guess not a lot of people knew about it. Tonight is the actual nationwide opening. And knowing this town, I'm sure there'll be a news crew at one of the theatres.
