Hello family and friends,
Last night we had a family movie night. The only room we all (kind of) fit in is the tv room. Even so, Sonny had to pay bills at the kitchen table which works well because it would have been a tough sell to get Kyle to give up the loveseat, Rachel and I cuddled on one couch and Gavin had the rocker (we are working on getting a Strickland-friendly sectional that will have us all actually seated in one room at one time) and in the middle of it all was Jubs. Kyle and Rachel had detached one of her cages from the tunnels and brought her in from the hamster room so she could spend the evening with us – it was a family night after all. During the course of the evening she could be found on the coffee table, (and BTW she is aware of the “table/edge of table/drop into nothingness reality”) on top of Gavin’s or Rachel’s head, burrowing into somebody's armpit or in her cage running in her wheel and even
stopping now and then to “watch” the movie along with us. Kyle got up at one point for a snack and reserving his seat proclaims, “Nobody take my seat, it’s my seat, nobody take it!” He wasn’t gone 10 seconds when Rachel, promptly put Jubs on Kyle’s seat, yelling, “Kyle, Jubbie’s took your seat!!” What ensued was a 5 minute “scolding” of Jubs by Kyle for not adhering to the house rules of seat saving – (We do not live by “move your feet, lose your seat” here) – I can't remember what movie we were watching but it was good family time at any rate.
Have a great week,
Carol
