Ice and a Warm Lap

Today it is so icy-slick that Faerygirl's bus cannot drive down our road. We slipped and skidded down the driveway in the dark only to find out that the roads are nearly impassable. Yesterday, I checked the bees. Three out of four hives buzzed when I lay my ear on the cold metal roofs and knocked. The one that didn't buzz might have expired. We won't know until we check it on a warmer day.

My lap is warmer, now, because one of our former kittens has returned to us. Bucko started out his life in Dragonwood, and then moved to my sister's house for a while. Now that my sister is moving far away, he has come back to live with us. He is a very affectionate cat, purring and snuggling and playing with Squirrelboy. It's nice to have him back. The two tigers, Mars and Charmer, are gone. Faerygirl's Skeezicks is still with us. The Lord of Dragonwood believes we've upgraded.
