Hooray! A burst of activity! The remaining old bookcases will all have departed by the end of today--either adopted (by an emeritus colleague) or donated (to the Presbyterians--I felt a surge of ecumenical sentiment coming on). Even as I type, my handyman is sanding the floor in the library; the room should be all pretty by early next week, which is when (looks around, crosses fingers and toes) the new bookcases should arrive.
Unfortunately, also even as I type, there's an oak rolltop desk parked right in front of the bathroom door. This is not an especially convenient place to stow a rolltop, I must say. Meanwhile, neither Victoria nor Disraeli seem particularly appreciative of the sander-produced noises, although Vicki is handling the situation with reasonable aplomb. (Disraeli is ensconced on top of one of the kitchen cabinets, looking glum.)
Ah, yes, the tops of the kitchen cabinets. I know them well. From there I can see the humans coming with their noisy machines, and I can punish them from on high with my paws...yes, I can scratch their tender heads...they will suffer, suffer for having disturbed my feline routine!
