There's no place like home for the holidays

Wow!  Big things happening.  There were all kinds of people here and the door was open all day and these guys were coming in with lots of stuff.   And guess what?  I know this stuff!  It's our stuff!  I can SMELL it!  Mom found my bowls, so I don't have to chase my food all over the floor anymore, haha!   And I have my big, big comfy couch back!   I LOVE my couch!  I can lean my head on the sides or I can snuggle in a corner, or I can stretch out, oh boy!  Oh, boy!  

It was pretty fun!  I even went outside by myself a couple of times to check on everyone.  But then I went back inside to make sure my pack was there.  I was "supervising."  I don't know what that means, but it sounds important.

There are lots of boxes everywhere, but we have our furniture back!  So my comfy couch is leaning on a dresser now, and so the bedroom is one of my favorite places!  And we have another room we can use now, with chairs in it.  Mom and Dad seemed pretty happy to be in there and they played music and I have another bed in there, too, and I think we all fell asleep!  

That night that all the people were here, I slept really, really well in my comfy couch.   I even got up late the next day.  We all did.   

So, I guess this is home?  Sure smells like it now!



We have a bit of unpacking to do.(!!)  But each day we make a little headway.  

Harry was a good boy while everything was chaotic, but it is really nice to have some rugs on the floors and actual furniture. Our boy was very happy to see, smell and sleep on his big, cushy couch that has bolsters on three sides.  He slept like a puppy that first night. 

We may not be entirely comfortable for several more months, but we have a "path" into the living room now and can sit in our chairs and listen to the stereo.  The bedroom is done as far as furniture, we just need to find our belongings and put them away.  The dining room is the same, with cabinets that need to be filled.  I just found our dishes and silverware today, along with pots and pans.  

We have no expectations for "holiday" décor this year...that is just not going to happen.  But the worst is over, and for that we are very grateful.  Little by little, it is starting to feel like home. Right, Harry?
