Days go by... and cat lovers be ware

Here is what we are working on this week:

1. Getting insulation quotes
2. Getting new window quotes
3. Getting home equity loan to help pay for this and others
4. Putting stripes in baby boy's room
5. Concrete countertops
1. Already made one.  Mix too dry (Tom didn't trust his instincts)
2. Also - its not very 'white'.  I think we are going to add white paint to the next one.  Anyone know anything about making these?  We are just learning from the internet :)

That's about it.  I've worked 30 hours so far this week - that's a lot for me!  I do enjoy spending time with Mary and at home so I can pay medical bills or sell some things on ebay or craigslist!  (sold our 7' ficus tree an old cuisinart coffee pot last week - got $50 for them total.  Not bad!)

So, I promised the cat rescue video.  Cat lovers - be warned.  There is no intentional harm done - I just know you'll say 'awwww... poor Oscar!'

This was the 2nd day we were in the house.  Oscar was a bit fritzed out because of the move and new place - he had been hiding.  BUT, we hadn't seem him for a while.  He is a very social cat - when we come home he usually says hi.  We came home Sunday night from a last minute Lowe's run, and still didn't find him.  Hadn't seen him for 7 hours or so?  Kept randomly hearing him meow.  So, at 9pm that night, I knew he needed our help.

SOOOO.  We heard him meow.  Thought he made it outside?  Nope, no cat paws in the snow.  Anywhere.  Heard him meow again.  Thought - can he really be in the ceiling?  Sure enough, he was stuck between the first and second floor - in the ceiling!!  

Poor guy.  Here is video of it all.  You gotta watch all 3 parts, in order :)
