Normal routines / Endless job

Nearly a week of living in our new house, and we’re quite enjoying it. Cats are pretty relaxed and have assumed normal routines. We are still ferrying stuff over from the old house, a seemingly endless job. The sewer work at the new house got complicated. The private company did their job on our side but they found a big hole on the City side, so for the last three days the City has been working on that with lots of big equipment. This morning, it looks like they are about finished, so we’ll be able to access our driveway 24/7 again starting later today.

Radio Free Random has a new studio (in my “office,” i.e. one of the bedrooms), and I’ve been doing transmissions from there this week. It’s got a big window for such a small room, and Betty’s been enjoying the view of the south yard from a perch a typewriter table I set up in front of the window.

We’re loving the north-facing floor-to-ceiling windows and balcony in the evenings, enjoying a view of the Coburg Hills, parades of clouds across the sky, and sunsets that we couldn’t see through all the trees and foliage at our old house. Also, we get to watch bats doing aeroBATics after sunset!

  1. Oh, bats! I miss seeing them … and the sunsets … at our old house. (But love our new house for totally different reasons.). We are looking forward to seeing yours.
