Trying to beat the rain...

It's a somewhat cloudy day today and even more noisier than ever before! Two vanfuls of guys showed up this morning armed with lots and lots of tools. They're tackling the house trying to get it framed in and roofed by this afternoon--it's supposed to rain!
And we say goodbye to our little front porch today. It's going away -- we'll have an overhang in the future but no more closed in itsy, bitsy front porch that served as a great "airlock" to make sure no kitties escaped.

The cats are not happy at all. Harrison is handling it a lot better than Olivia but even that's not saying much. When they get scared, Harrison usually heads upstairs and Olivia goes under the sofa. There's no more upstairs to get to since it is boarded up at the top of the stairs and tarped up at the bottom so Harrison has been joining Olivia under the sofa. Well, the sofa went into the POD on Saturday and Olivia ran under the bed. That didn't help either since shortly after the sofa left, so did the bed. Lee built a little fort for them out of sofa cushions and Olivia hid there for a little bit but I dismantled the fort on Sunday in an effort to clear out more stuff. So now Olivia is hiding in the closet and Harrison is hanging out with me in the kitchen.
