life, love,art. heart failure and assorted ramblings

Don't Talk Like That...

I write to find out what my heart thinks....
I am here to celebrate my life, to uncover my fears, to hold on to love, to grieve my losses, to laugh long and hard, and to learn how to live a full magnificent life with heart failure. I am honoring my creativity, and exploring all of my emotions out loud ...before anyone can say....."Don't talk like that!"

...nothing is a standard size or square

Old, and I do mean old sliding glass doors are being replaced with amazing huge French doors!  Sliders had a very decorative, but highly functional lime green pool noodle as insulation between “the spoiled” kitty door and the sliding door.  That left about a 16” opening for people to get in and out!  We had to turn sideways to squeeze through the door…and god help you if you are carrying something!  

Of course, nothing like rehab construction…it does not matter how long you have lived somewhere there will always be surprises when you tear into an older house.  Like…nothing is a standard size or square.  What we thought might take us a couple of days is now approaching day #4, but we are beginning to see the possible end!  Age and endurance are definitely rearing their ugly heads!

Only another cat owner will understand how much time and expense we are willing to go to so that the kitties can go outside to do their “business”! But to go from 16” door opening to a 48” opening is crazy good!
