Wilma joins us from a busy foster home in Fort St. John where there were three dogs and another cat. In our comparatively quiet home, her and Millie are now mostly friends. Mostly.
When not duking it out in the Kitty Battledome, they`re parkouring off the furniture and wrestling on top of our sleeping bodies.
They`re both total cuties and we`re still on the fence as to whether we`ll keep Millie or not. Luckily we`ve been able to postpone that decision as no one has shown any interest in adopting her.
At the prompting of a well-connected woman, who is quickly becoming a favourite friend in Chetwynd, I attended a volunteer orientation at one of the primary schools at lunch.
Car free and usually care free, I debated the merits of walking or cycling in a developing northern snow storm.
Both would get me out of the house. Pro. I could get there faster cycling and read a novel longer. Pro. I was going to a school and they would have a bike rack. HUGE Pro. A book club mate and the inviter to the event had recently dislocated her shoulder from a cycling fall - on dry pavement - hmmm, possible con.
I cycled there. It was chilly. I felt hardcore. The wind blew snow into my exposed face both ways. Con, con, con.
There was delicious carrot soup waiting when I arrived at the school and two fun kitties when I returned home. Pro.
