Family

[ingvild]

My older sister's visiting with her three kids. It's lovely seeing them again, but the cat's terrified of them. Normally, she'll get in and out through a ventilation shaft that goes to the basement, and then just come in if we've remembered to not close the door (and meow until we open it if we've forgotten). Now, she won't come in unless I stand calling for her, and then I have to carry her straight up to my or my younger sister's room so she doesn't have to be around the kids. I hope she'll get over it; they're here for a week.

A week in which I won't get much work done. Darn. I was starting to get somewhere, too.
