Attention! Attention!

All hands on deck for final inspection!  (Do I sound like our dear Admiral?)

Actually, we are somewhat getting ready for the visit of The Most Perfect Sisters in The World and their parents.  Not as much as we normally would, but the PM is again having a rough week.  Her blood pressure is not as stable as it normally is, going up for short periods of time and leaving her very tired.

However, the itinerary is set.  They will arrive in the afternoon on Saturday. The PM, Ringo and family will visit a desert, a rainforest and a temperate zone forest on Saturday afternoon,  have dinner and go swimming.

On Sunday, after breakfast, they will visit a butterfly mansion.  It is said the butterflies are so friendly, they have been known to sit on people's fingers and noses.  The PM is curious to see if that will happen during their visit.  I am too.  Of course, who knows what I would do if a butterfly landed on my nose!

Super Surprises!

Yesterday, Penny the Miracle Worker came to start doing her stuff.  The castle looks 1000% better already; Penny can sweep better than the PM can mop!  She will finish on Wednesday.  We are really enjoying the change already.  There is still stuff do do around the place, but it is easier stuff to do that maybe the PM can do.

In even more exciting news, the PM returned a call from Sir Knight Errant Honder.  He, Lady Jen, and the Most Perfect Sisters In The World, Nicole and Allison, may come up and spend Sat and Sun of the last weekend of this month with Us!  This is so very exciting; the first time it will happen.  Huzzahs abound throughout the kingdom!  The PM is already planning the itinerary.

Frantic February

...is finally over!  That was a month of mishaps and mayhem.  I haven't even discussed them all with you, kittehs!

Hopefully the new month, with the arrival of spring, will be calmer.  The PM is receiving some extra financial advice from Sir Knight Errant Honder to ensure that the fundraising and budgeting goes smoothly.  We are hoping that the worst of the snow is behind us.  The PM is also having Penny the Miracle Worker come over and help get the castle back into an appropriate shape for a princess, as the PM has not felt up to it over the winter.  That should happen on Wednesday.

The PM is so silly; her work was called off on Wednesday due to bad snows, so what does she do?  Go to the lakefront and take pictures of seagulls in the blizzard!
