The cats were rowdy...

The cats were rather rowdy overnight, becoming one of the reasons for me not sleeping very well. They were running around, dashing up and down the stairs, meowing, etc. Even our normally lazy, big, sea cucumber-like Stripey has been quite active in his explorations, and has been meowing more than Vivvy.

The other reason for not sleeping well is that I didn't close the blinds, and discovered, with all the windows now in our room, that the skies get quiet bright around 3:30 a.m. Amy discovered that also. She, normally one to stay in bed until 9 or 10 a.m. (and later if we let her), was up and about around 6 a.m. this morning.

The heaters are set to 60F, and the house is pretty close to that. With heating oil at over $3/gallon, we do what we can. It really isn't too bad -- I'm in a pair of shorts and a seatshirt. After living in an apartment where it's been difficult to get the temp below 75F, it's a nice change (at least for me).

More moving to do today, but I should also do a bit more work on this week's sermon.
