When the cat's away ...

As the saying goes, when the cat's away, the mouse does play. As many of you know, I woke up to frozen pipes last Saturday morning, and as Dennis was in Florida at a conference, I was left to my own devices. So after several unpleasant trips to the crawl space to address said plumbing emergency, I emerged to discover another daunting situation.



I was able to stop him from chucking the last few books from his shelf. (It felt like a big accomplishment at the time.)


So after a LOOONG time-out, and a bit of sorting and reshelving, we got things straightened away again -- and got the water flowing. What a day!

And he looks so innocent ... who would ever imagine?
