It was time to take a walk and explore our new neighborhood. Just another week, I reckoned.Įven I had cabin fever, after several days of nonstop unpacking. We could let the cats out to play in our new neighborhood, as soon as they were ‘bonded’ to the house. While our home in Tampa had been very close to a busy road, Whitehall Avenue had little traffic. Taz sat in a corner of his room looking evilly at us all, his conversion to ‘normal kitty’ short-lived. So small that I needed to keep the wardrobe boxes, at least until I figured out what to do with the clothes they contained.Ĭecily and Tyler were dying to go outside, casting longing looks at squirrels and birds through the sliding glass doors in the family room.
