welcome to our home, E.T. lives here

for the majority of this week we were living in a scene from E.T. 


it was pretty terrible. the highlight of it all was the drywalls guys drywalling our new kitty in the wall. i came home for lunch one day to find the bedroom door (where i had locked the dogs and kitty), and the back door open. i didn't have time to find the kitty, so i just left and hoped that she would come out. in the back den there was a spot in the wall where the kitty liked to jump in and hide. by the time i came home at the end of the day the guys had drywalled over the spot where the kitty liked to hide and there was no kitty. after a (now hilarious) conversation with the guys (they don't speak english, so it involved a lot of hand gestures), they told me that the cat had jumped in the wall and that they hadn't seen her since. i then insisted that they take the drywall off and get the cat out. 12 hours later the kitty (now named lady olivia after olivia newton john from grease because she ends up being a bad ass at the end) came out of the hole no doubt traumatized. 

here are some pictures of the progress:




well that's all done, and we had a cleaning party thursday night. it feels so much better to have our home back. now on to the real work!
