Winter Wonderland

And it is a winter wonderland here. In Seattle proper the snow did not stick, but here oh my goodness it stuck and everywhere you look it is white! I used to say that the only time Abilene was a pretty city is when it is snow covered.

It is refreshing to see your environment all ready for the holiday season. Yippie! And our Christmas present came early this year. Little Rigbey is home although it was not easy.

I went to go pick him up the day after his surgery (he got fixed). When I got there they couldn't find him. An hour after I arrived they realised they had given him to someone else. Yes they gave him away! I was uh a little upset. I mean I hadn't even held him and I was starting to cry thinking of him given away. They called the guy who they adopted him to after we had already adopted him, and asked him to bring my kitty back. He was really upset because they wanted him too. I felt like the two mothers before Solomon. When I heard the Humane Society woman arguing with the guy I was sure that he was gone and I would never see him again. And I was sad, trying really hard not to lose it in front of these women. But amazingly the guy brought him back. And I know it was hard on his wife and I felt bad but he had only been with the other family for an hour. So he came home. Abbey is happy just yet, but Abbey moves at her own pace so I am not too worried yet.

Rigbey is a cuddle bug. He sleeps in my lap and not much else. I think he misses cuddling with his brothers. He is a sweet little boy. I can't get over how tiny he is. I just love him.
