Same ol' feeling
I feel both sad and excited now.. In a few hours I am going to go on a
three-day vacation. I'm going to visit my family in Trondheim (Norway...), the town where I grew up. It's situated 540 km (335 miles) north of Oslo, where I live now. I will be driving up there with my ex-wife, who is going to visit her brother. Well, isn't this good news? Oh yes, I'm going to see my father (84) for the first time since he came into a nursing home a few weeks ago. He had been waiting for this for about two years, and I really look forward to meeting him in his new home. So why feel sad? Sad because I can't bring the cats with me! I almost never stay away from them for more than 24 hours. Surely, I know that they will have all they need while I'm gone, enough food, enough water, clean toilet (at least when I leave...), but I'm going to miss them a lot! On our way up there, I think we're going to pick up a kitten from the breeder where we got our first Devon Rex, Loomis, and bring it to Trondheim. It's quite a long trip (about 6-7 hours), and I hope the kitten won't get car sick or something... Anyway, we get cat company on the way! I don't know if me and ex-wife will be travelling back to Oslo together, but I have to go back on Thursday, because if she doesn't, I have to take care of her two cats as well... :-) I think this is going to be my only vacation this summer, I can't afford anything else, so I better grab the chance, I guess. If possible, I'll send you a report on the situation while I'm up there! -- Hans Schrøder |
